Great Stay

Great property and great responsive host. Exactly as presented. Everything was very high quality. Comfy beds with great linens and blankets. Amazing showers. Tankless water heater so you don't run out of hot water if everyone gets ready at the same time. Had everything for our family with younger kids. Thoughtfully curated kitchen supplies. Sharp knives. Great plasticware for around the pool. Great insulated tumblers for the beach, etc. Coolers provided were very much appreciated. Plenty of nice beach and bath towels. Paper products and toiletries provided. Ice maker was clutch. Great beach gear. Great pool floats and toys provided. House was extremely clean. Someone in our party forgot her headphones when we left and cleaning crew found them and owner is mailing them back for us. Excellent host. Thanks for everything!

Great family beach house.

This home was a perfect fit for our 3 generational family. Impeccably clean with high quality bedding and furnishings. Kitchen was well supplied with high quality dishes and cookware. Two refrigerators and icemaker. Pool was lovely and enjoyed by all. Safety alarms on slider doors to pool. Easy 5 min walk to the beach - we loved that all beach gear was available including a heavy duty wagon and a Neso beach canopy - big improvement over umbrellas! Also sand toys and floats. Great communication with owner from before we arrived through the easy checkin. We hope to return here next year!

Perfect house!

We could not have asked for a better house for our beach getaway! First, communication with Stephanie was outstanding! The first floor layout and easy backyard accessibility was great for our family. We’ve stayed in a multi-level house before and the one story layout was MUCH better for us. Location, location, location! We love the Anna Maria and Holmes Beach areas and the house is perfectly located between the two. Then the added bonus of being within walking distance to the beach was the cherry on top! All this while being on a quiet street! The house had everything we needed and more! We are so thankful to have found such a wonderful property!!

Perfect!!

We were impressed from the moment we pulled up to the house. It was exactly as described and just what we needed for our all adult family getaway. Each couple had their own bathroom, which is a huge bonus. The house was very clean and had so many thoughtful touches. We cooked several meals at the house so we were very appreciative of the spices and seasonings in the pantry. The host was super responsive and answered the few questions that I had. We will be returning to Ana Maria Island and would definitely stay at this home again!

A wonderful trip to Anna Maria!

This house was perfect for our vacation with seven adults. The house was beautiful, clean, and well stocked with beach supplies, kitchen supplies, etc. Every detail was thought of. The private pool was wonderful. We used it everyday. The house is also extremely close to the beautiful beach. The owners were very quick to respond and answer any questions.

Perfect home, perfect location

Beautiful home in quiet, central location. House was well equipped for every need, beautifully decorated with gorgeous pool/garden area. We particularly liked the way the house was laid out on one floor. There were only four sharing but there would be more than ample room if a there was a ‘full house’.

Perfect Home and location

Fully updated and clean home! We loved the one story floor plan with pool right off the living room/kitchen. I cannot say enough about how quick and helpful our hosts were to questions. We were a block from the beach with an awesome sun shade, plenty of chairs and beach toys. Loved the fridge in the garage for all our beverages. Pool guy came twice and yard clean up crew came too so all was clean and tidy. Hosts were very open to any suggestions to make our stay better including fixing noisy bed springs. We are already looking at dates for next year to try to rent this property again. We love the location which is so close to great food too! Thank you for helping us make great memories! ,
