So lovely!

This was our second time staying at this lovely little property. It was in remarkable condition after enduring 2 hurricanes since our last visit. All new, not a trace of damage that we could see. We can not say enough about the peaceful, quiet and lovely back yard. A small pool, plenty of seating. We look forward to returning next year.

Fabulous rental

If Maria was going for immaculate, adorable, relaxing, and fully equipped, she nailed it! Wonderfully comfortable 1 bedroom with a spectacular little private pool. All of the appliances are new, the kitchen is very well equipped, the furniture is clean and nice. I had one very minor issue — contacted Maria and she got back to me within minutes. Thank you, Maria for sharing this great vacation home!

Awesome!!!

We have stayed all over the world and this home was by far the best. The home was exactly how it was advertised. Very clean and everything you need. Close to the beach and the pool is a fantastic plus!!!! The backyard was perfect. The outdoor shower was another plus. Maria was a sweetheart to deal with. The grill was clean and worked. (We have had other rentals where things did not work) The bed is very comfortable. Everything from the appliances to the lovely bathroom, all the furnishings, TV’s, were perfect. You can tell Maria really put a lot into this place. We will absolutely be back and will stay longer. Thank you Maria!

We had such an amazing stay here. The location was perfectly centralized to Anna Maria and just enough room for our family of 3. The host, Maria, was amazing! We had an issue with the ceiling fan and she made sure to have the whole fan replaced within a day. Can’t say enough good things about our trip to Anna at this location!
