Loved the property manager - spoke with a very nice lady to place deposit and she was so helpful to learn about the area. Easy entrance to property. Loved the layout of property and having beach accessories despite being quite old. We really appreciated them. Property is not updated if that’s important to you. We appreciate function and cleanliness over luxury finishes. Would have appreciated more paper products considering price point. Bikes would make properly even more valuable. Pool pics made it look larger than actually is. Quiet and safe neighborhood. Felt very comfortable and we walked every morning, saying hello to many friendly neighbors. Appreciated multiple televisions to watch different things at night and grill. Would stay again - provided all that our family of six needed. We were thankful for the opportunity!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a fantastic stay in this cozy vacation home in a beautiful, peaceful Florida neighborhood. The location is excellent – just a short drive to the stunning beaches of Anna Maria Island, perfect for relaxed island vibes and gorgeous sunsets.The house offers three spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms and classic American-style furnishings. Everything we needed was provided: a well-equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, plenty of towels and linens. The owners clearly put heart into it – lovely personal touches and decorations made it feel warm and welcoming.While not brand new or ultra-modern, the house is very well-maintained, clean and full of charm. We felt right at home immediately and enjoyed our vacation tremendously.Thank you to the hosts for the great communication and hospitality – we’d love to come back! Highly recommended for anyone wanting a comfortable, authentic stay close to Anna Maria Island.

Nice but

Nice clean house and neighborhood. Comfortable furniture with all the kitchen necessities, but property would have benefited with a walk through before we arrived. Pool water level was low so pool heater was short cycling, lost most of a week of pool use due to cold water. Numerous light bulbs bad in kitchen and entry. Would rent again, better than average listing.

Very nice rental house

Our family really enjoyed this rental vacation home and was very close to beaches, shops, restaurants, etc. Very relaxing and enjoyed hanging out poolside when not out venturing AMI area. We had one issue during our stay - the clothes dryer did not produce any heat to dry our clothes. We packed for the trip knowing we had a washer and dryer and this created some frustrations as we had to run the dryer on air fluff for 3-4 cycles to get 1 load of clothes dried or hang them out on patio or closets. Overall, great place! Wish the management company would have gotten the dryer fixed within 24-48 hours of our stay, but was not addressed for our whole stay.

Perfect! Everything you need!

The house was very clean, spacious, well equipped, beautifully decorated and furnished. The property management company was friendly and provided excellent customer service. The owners have really thought of everything, including pool toys for the kids, floats, beach chairs, umbrellas and even provided a beach cooler. The current pictures don't do it justice. The neighborhood is beautiful and quite. No heavy traffic and the grocery store was a short drive from the property. The pool was very nice and clean. The outdoor area provided a tranquil atmosphere, we spent most of our evenings by the pool. Anna Maria Island and Coastline Excursions are also a short drive from the property and we absolutely loved exploring Anna Maria Island and snorkeling in the emerald waters of Anna Maria and Egmont Key. We got to see a lot of marine life, dwarf seahorses, sand dollars, star fish, manatees and dolphins. We have stayed at a couple of VRBO's but this one is one of the BEST! We will be back!!

Satisfied

This property is in a nice, quiet neighborhood and is close to many stores. The home is smaller than what it appears in the pictures, but the decor is very cute. There are ample amounts of dishes/cookware available, but the pans are old and food was sticking to them. The bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable, but the beds in the other two rooms were cheap, hard, and squeaked whenever you moved. The pool was small and dated and did not stay warm during our stay (although the weather was very cool). There were also issues with some of the electrical outlets prior to our arrival and we were provided with extension cords to plug in the living room lamps. There was also an odor of wet dirt coming from the water in the home, but we were advised from the property manager that the smell would improve with more use, as the house had been sitting empty for a few weeks. Also, you are expected to supply your own trash bags, dish soap, paper towels, and toilet paper. They provide a “starter kit”, but if you’re staying longer than 4 or 5 days, you’ll need to buy your own. I’d rather pay extra money and have those supplies available for me to use, as needed, then going out and purchasing my own. We had to purchase more than what we’d ever use while we’re there, which is just wasteful. Overall, the stay was decent and the property manager was friendly and responded quickly.

The property manager that we spoke to was always friendly and helpful but there are some things that could be cleaned and changed for the comfort and safety of the renters we had to ask to have the pool area sprayed for spiders as there were a lot of them also the rugs used in the house by doors were terrible just tripping hazards they need to be runners with a good non slip backing also ALL beds need mattress covers for the protection of anyone who sleeps on them also the outside of the house needs to be cleaned and some attention to the yard area

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: over all it was ok due to great location but for staying for 3 weeks with over $5000 price it was not the best rental experience we had. It felt every thing was put in placed with cheapest setup. TV was difficult to use due to terrible cable setup, broken down dangerous furniture and flea infestation and we have to wash linen and conmforter to prevent alergy flare up. TV remote did not work in two out of three rooms. For 3 weeks we are provided only few toilet paper. Pool side was spider web infested and dirty and pool side storage was nasty.

Could’ve been better

Upon arriving late in the evening, we immediately noticed the couches were so soiled we didn’t feel comfortable sitting on them. The property manager came by next day to examine and made arrangements for the maintenance guy to come the following day, to spot clean the couch cushions, they also smelled. He chose to clean the area rug as well and it was so filthy the water came black. The chintzy supplies were quite embarrassing. The tiny bars of soap were so small it was a waste for them to even be packaged, really? There was one extra roll of the cheapest toilet paper, one very small roll of the cheapest paper towel, two dish washing pods for the dishwasher, one of which we were reminded to use to clean the dishes before we left so the cleaning people didn’t have to. There was ONE extra trash bag and all the trash cans were dirty inside Trash day notification needed to be updated as we read to put them out on a day that didn’t get picked up, needs to be corrected, and get this, you can’t put it out the night before.....what? Although we paid a cleaning fee we were asked to remove the linens, & wash, put away all the dishes, ok no problem but maybe we should share the cleaning fee since I had to clean before we could comfortably enjoy this place. The comforters were not clean, I recommend taking them completely off the bed before use! The bathroom mats were so dirty I had to put them in the wash before we could use them. The quantity and the quality of the items stocked did not match the cost of the rental, not to mention the low supply of towels for four people. The dryer was full of pet hair, and the pillows were stained, thank God we brought our own! We were aware 10:00 is the check out time, but the cleaning lady sat in front our place one hour and fifteen minutes before check out. The staff does not call when they say they’re going to. We know of other that rentals offer some sort of cancellation policy and payment plan, however this place required full payment at the time of booking with absolutely no options to cancel. They weren’t clean or good enough to require that for sure! Needless to say we do not recommend Florida Dreams rental nor will we ever book with them again.
