Perfect Home Near the Beach

Our family had a wonderful time at AMI with this cozy home perfect for our spring break getaway. This was our first VRBO rental and property met and exceeded our expectations. You would never have known the home was under water last fall with storm surge from Hurricane Helene. Douglas was a great host.

Great place to stay!

The house was perfect for my wife and I and two of our adult sons. It is well stocked with everything we needed. Short walk to beautiful and uncrowded beach. The best grill I’ve ever seen at a rental! Centrally located on Anna Maria. A short drive or trolley ride to all places of interest on island. Owners are easy to work with!

Short but Sweet

We were just getting used to the wonderful nearby beach. It was a dream come true for all of us: my wife and myself, my daughter and her husband and their infant son. It was cozy and comfortable. Everyone had their own bedroom and bathroom. And the baby had a quiet room too. Doug is a great host. Nice backyard. Perfect for grilling out. Unfortunately, we had to cut our stay short as my mother-in-law took a turn for the worse. She was in ailing health and a call from the nursing home had us heading home so we could be with her in her last few days. We hope to come back in the future as we fell in love with Anna Maria Island and this cute, yet spacious little cottage by the beach.

Amazing and close to the beach

This beach cottage was very comfortable and suited the needs of our stay very well. We especially enjoyed the wagon, beach chairs, and umbrellas that were left for us to use at the beach. We walked just a couple of blocks from the house and spent most of our time relaxing while the kids played on the beach. The layout of the house was different because you walk through the 2nd bedroom and bathroom to get to the back bedroom, but we put the kids in the back bedroom and it wasn't a problem for us.

Awesome location

This was our first time to Florida and the hosts made the whole process very easy! They were there on our arrival and very friendly, down to earth people. This property was clean, cool and in a great location, just 5 minutes to the beach, along a beautiful street and walkway. Trolley stops at both ends of the streets make it super convenient if you’re without a car. Everything we needed for the beach was out back - umbrellas, chairs, poles/anchors for umbrellas, boogie boards, noodles, etc. Towels were provided inside and it was nice to have a washer/dryer to be able to repack clean clothes! We did rent a foldable beach wagon since the one provided had busted wheels but it wasn’t a big deal at all. Would definitely rent again!

Great location

We absolutely loved our stay on Anna Maria. This was our third visit to the island and first time in this home. The location to the beach was great. The house with the yellow doors is a short block and a half walk. We loved this aspect. We could hit the beach early in the morning for a walk, go back to the house to change into swimsuits and grab our books, and head back to the beach to enjoy the sunshine! The house came with lawn chairs and a beach wagon which we appreciated. The owner was outstanding when it came to communication and answering any questions we had. We LOVED the fact that we had our check-in information a couple of days in advance and that he worked to allow us an early check-in. The other reviews talk about the house design. There are two bedrooms in what I'd call the "main house" and one which is towards the back. It worked great for our arrangent and actually allowed for some "alone time" and some "together time." I appreciated the owner wanted to confirm that we knew this in advance. We felt it spoke to his high integrity. Overall, the cleanliness of the house was good. We ranked it a four simply because something went rolling under the sofa and it appeared it could use a deep clean in some of those out of the way places. There were also a couple of pots we took it upon ourselves to re-wash (which was not a big deal) and the cleaners would not have thought to check those from the previous renters. However, we also know we were rushing the cleaners to allow us early entry and appreciated their accomodations. We don't doubt you'll enjoy your stay in this little home with it's great history! (We enjoyed it being shared in the book!) We pray your family will be blessed during their time in this home and the owners will too for their hospitality. May you make as many wonderful memories as our family did! John and Leslie I

Yellow door house was amazing!

This house was great! The 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths accompanied our family of 5 (plus occasional friends) very well. The house is fully stocked with everything you can imagine - kitchen amenities, boogie boards, beach chairs, linens, etc. The walk to the beach was just a couple of minutes. The floorplan is unique (walking through 2nd bedroom to 3rd), but it works fine with kids. The big driveway was nice for our car and the golf cart that we rented. Doug was very accommodating and super easy to work with. We would highly recommend renting this property!

The property is in a great location on the island, very close to the beach and a great layout for a family of four. Many people run these properties like a business. Not here - Doug, the owner, treats you like a friend and a personal guest. He told me about the island before I even rented, texted before to find out our plans, made recommendations, and was there to help and answer any questions. I truly enjoyed our interactions and the stay. Highly recommend.

Perfect spot close to the beach & shops

If we could give this property more than 5 stars we would. The house is located about seven houses away from the beach; it's a very short walk and sure beats trying to find a parking space. It's also a perfect central location on the island with easy access to all of the great restaurants and shopping Anna Maria offers. The owners did a wonderful job with their renovations, it doesn't get much better than this perfectly decorated home with touches of seagrass and bamboo & beautiful coastal colors at every turn. It has three full bathrooms and three full bedrooms, a very well stocked kitchen, a comfortable, thoughtfully decorated living room, and a separate dining room. Out back is a grill and a patio table in a private back yard and a shed with beach chairs, and umbrella and even a wagon to get you there. It was clean and extremely well stocked with everything we could need. The owners literally thought of everything and are extremely gracious and communicative. We hope to visit again next year; thank you for the fabulous experience! Ian & Laura Clark

A little odd setup having to go through the middle bedroom to get to the back but it worked. It would have been nice if the door off the laundry room had a coded door knob so you didn't have to take the key to the beach otherwise everything worked great for us and we would consider this property again.
