Could not ask for a better location — literally around the corner from the beach, Publix and CVS and very quiet. Hosts/management staff were very attentive prior to and during our stay. Loved the beach chairs and wagon.

We had a lovely stay at Island Retreat!

We had a lovely stay at Island Retreat - the location is great for access to the Manatee Beach and also for the Trolley Bus. We have stayed in a number of properties on the island and this is definitely the best - ideal for a couple. The kitchen and most of the appliances look almost new. The property was also very quiet, given it's central location.

Very nice, clean and quiet vacation rental!

Very nice, clean and quiet vacation rental. Perfect size for two adults and two children. The location is perfect, it's just a few blocks from the grocery store and minutes from the beach. They provide beach chairs and beach towels which is a plus. I highly recommend renting a golf cart (make sure you rent a month ahead of time).

Great Location

The process was simply and easy and the property was located in a great spot. Just a 2 block walk to the beach and across the street from a CVS pharmacy, Publix grocery market and other useful shops. The beach supplies (towels, chairs, beach umbrella and beach wagon were very helpful and in great condition.

Clean, comfortable and an easy walk to the beach

I found this condo to be more spacious than expected, and the location was great for us. We didn't rent a car, but the beach is just a couple blocks away, and there is a CVS and Publix across the street. For all other outings, there is a trolley stop 50 yards from the condo, so we were easily able to explore everything we wanted. Would definitely stay here again.

Well-appointed and spacious

Our stay at Island Retreat was perfect! The location was very convenient to the main road and public beach, but was still very quiet. All of the beach essentials are provided including chairs, an umbrella, wagon, cooler, and beach toys. The property was very clean and SeaBreeze team members responded promptly each time I reached out - both before our trip and during. I highly recommend this property and SeaBreeze Vacation Rentals!

The condo was comfortable. We went to Holmes Beach every day. We did track a lot of sand in. I wish there was a broom and a dust pan for clean ups. The vacuum cleaner provided didn’t do the job.

It was a perfect experience!

We (2 adults and 2 kids and one infant) spend 10 days at the Island Retreat apartment for Christmas. It was a perfect experience! Close walking distance to the beach and to the only one supermarket of the island, super convenient! The location was very clean and the check-in process very easy. The street was quiet and so our kids could sleep with no difficulties. Easy parking in front of the property. Anna Maria Island is a great getaway! We will come back next year :-)

Great Stay minutes away from the beach!

We had an amazing week here. Had everything we needed to feel right at home. Only a 3 minute walk to the beach. Loved the island and loved this place! Only other comment would be to bring some type of white noice is you’re a light sleeper. You’re a few houses down from the main road, so you may pick up some noice from a truck or load car during the night. Either way don’t pass on this place if available!

This rental had everything we needed for a week long vacation for two! Plenty of towels (bath and beach) were provided, laundry detergent, dish soap, adequate kitchen utensils... we truly were not left wanting for anything! They even had several beach chairs, a beach wagon, an umbrella, beach toys for kids, and a cooler that they made available for use. The location could not have been more perfect. The host was extremely responsive and always answered within 10-15 minutes max. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, and I would absolutely book here again!
