Relaxing vacation

We had an absolutely amazing stay at this home! The house was spotless and beautifully maintained, with everything we needed to kick off our vacation. The host thought of every detail—even providing beach towels, a cooler, chairs, and an umbrella, which made our beach days so convenient. I highly recommend renting a golf cart—it's a fun and easy way to get around and reach the beach. We truly had a wonderful time. Highly recommend!

Good stay

House is very nice. Well equipped. Pool is small with partial shade. Only one lounge chair but patio area is very small and prob can’t fit more. Not too far from beach, but long walk if carrying beach gear, recommend golf cart or bikes if staying at this house. We are regular ami visitors and have stayed at many houses on the island. This one is good considering price and ammentites.

Delightful stay in AMI Very close to the waterways

Property was just as described and pictured online. Lovely decor, nicely kept and well-maintained. Very clean. Sheets, towels and bedding all nice. There was one dish towel in the kitchen drawer that needs to be tossed. It is all stained. A little difficulty with the shower faucet and the toilet in the first bathroom on the left. But overall a lovely property and very comfortable for At least four people. Also very well stocked for cooking as well as a day at the beach for fun in the pool. Management group was very responsive. Indeed, a little oasis of your own. Thank you.

Great stay on AMI near the beach!

We had a wonderful stay at this beach home. It was well appointed with everything you would expect, and the pool and short walk to the beach were as explained and certainly enjoyed. The location to restaurants like the Ugly Grouper, Sandbar and the Waterfront was very convenient.

Book with no worries !

We stayed July 2021 and had a wonderful experience. The house was meticulous. The owners responded to any and every concern. The house has comfortable amenities. The pool is shaded, but that is nice on days you don’t want to be in the sun. If you have mobility issues, be aware the house is elevated and has steps, but not many. The windows are tinted to keep the Florida sun from warming the house. They have 2 large fans in the living area that keep the house cool. Every pot you could need is provided. The towels are plenty and soft. The house is a short walk from the beach, but the Florida sun can cook you, so we did drive and parked with no issues by the beach. The house provided one beach umbrella, but I would suggest a cabana instead. 4 adults trying to squeeze under the one umbrella wasn’t easy or enjoyable. In the Florida sun, most use a cabana. This house is located closer to the north end of the island, so it is much quieter- which is what we loved. Check out sunrises on the bay side and sunsets on the beach side. Pine Avenue shopping, Two scoops ice cream, North Street cafe is a must for coffee and avocado toast! Book a private boat with island boat tours & adventures and dolphin watch during sunset! Local food store is a 5 min drive. So many places to eat. Take a trolley around the island, eat at the ugly grouper , get your picture at the AMI jail house, play miniature golf on the south end of the island! So much to see and do and staying at this house adds to your enjoyment. The owners address it all in a matter of moments, they care about your stay and want you to enjoy and come back! This is the best house on the island!

Fantastic Stay

We enjoyed staying the week at YOUR OWN OASIS. Everything was just as the photos showed. We enjoyed the pool being shaded in the evenings after a long sunny day at the beach - it was refreshing. The only negative would be the heat pump. They ask you to keep it at 74... there were very hot days & the heat pump had a hard time keeping up. It got 78-80 inside a few evenings. Other than that we thoroughly enjoyed this rental! Would definitely stay there again!

Our week on Anna Maria Island was great! The house fit our needs perfectly - the perfect size for the six of us, beautifully furnished, perfectly equipped and thoughtfully accessorized. Suzanne was a delight to deal with, from our first contact right up until check-out. And she was immediately responsive to any enquiries. Anna Maria Island was a very pleasant surprise for us - the perfect way to spend the christmas week. It's a tranquil oasis with great beaches, nice shopping and services, and only a short drive to all the attractions of the Tampa/St.Pete's/Clearwater attractions. If life brings us back to this region, we will be sure to check back with this property.
