Property is dated

Given the storm damage to all of AMI, this propeerty appears to have been whipped into shape and we were glad for that. Given that the weather was unusually cool compared to our many years of thanksgiving time stays at AMI we were glad to have a place to rent. However, the kitchen was poorly equipped, pillows and bedding were of poor quality, the range worked but was very old. Needs a receptacle for recycle items and waste basket for bathroom. Having said all that "We will return to AMI next Thanksgiving. Janae & Eric

Wonderful vacation

We had the best week on Anna Maria island staying here. The house was perfect for our family. Just a short walk to the beach where we made wonderful memories. We would definitely stay here again.

Indulgence

Opulent setting in traditional Floridian decor. A secluded outdoor sitting space off the master with soft lighting. The pool, all your own, at ALL TIMES inviting you to enjoy. Walk to white sands on the Gulf. Enjoy each meal in the sunshine outside or inside. Do not pack too much. You won’t need much to wear and whatever you do wear you can wash in your own washer and dryer.

Absolutely loved it!

This house was perfect for our family (and pups)! Quick access to the beach and an easy bike ride to restaurants. Having a private pool was the best way to end each evening.

Family Fun!

I've stayed in Anna Maria many times in many houses. This one was ideal for our small family. Easy beach access, a small pool to cool off in the evenings, games for the whole family, and clean home to rest in after a day at the beach.
