Perfection

Can’t say enough good things about our experience at Anna Maria Island. Lazy Loggerhead is the perfect beach house with great location right on the beach and a beautiful pool and hot tub in the shade in back. The home itself is perfectly appointed with four bedrooms-three with adjoining bathrooms making everyone’s stay very comfortable. They had plenty of beach chairs with a wagon to help with beach set up. The deck had nice furniture which we used to sit and sip coffee in the morning watching the dolphins swim right off shore and then again in the evening to watch the beautiful sunsets. This place exceeded our expectations and we hope to return next year. To add to our enjoyment Anna Maria Life rental agency was superb and really made our stay even better.

This property is better than what is on the listing! The beach is so close and like having your own private beach. Pool and hot tub are huge bonus. The place is immaculate, has everything you would want while on vacation! We stayed for 10 days and only left the property twice! Close to Publix for groceries, Walgreens, etc. It is spotless and everything is new and "smart"! The rental company was very easy to work with! Hope to stay here again!!

We had a wonderful time! Beautiful views, amazing sunsets and a private pool oasis! The beach views from the balcony made my coffee taste better than ever each morning. The only thing is there was no drip coffee maker....so we bought one and left it there for the next visitors wanting a big pot of coffee each morning.
