OUTSTANDING!!!!
Loved the Fancy Flamingo! Everything was just as described and maybe even better. The backyard was amazing with the beautiful pool and hot tub and nicely landscaped. The house was super clean and had everything we needed for our stay, including a nice binder with all of the AMI tips tricks and house instructions. It was our first time renting a house and on AMI and by the end of our stay it felt like home. THANK YOU!!!

Great pool
The house is in a great location and the pictures online are accurate. The back patio and pool were awesome and we spent days hanging at the pool instead of the beach. Our only reason for not giving the house 5 stars was it could have been a little cleaner. The window blinds had dust all over them and the ceiling fans had dust stuck to the fan blades. So the house needed a deep clean but the rooms overall were clean. The management was responsive and overall we had a great trip!!

First time staying on AMI. House was perfect & clean in a very nice quiet location. Family really enjoyed the pool as well as easy access to all the AMI has to offer. Definitely recommend renting a golf cart as cars can have difficulty finding parking spaces.

Wonderful
We loved the fancy flamingo! The house is beautiful and clean, the pool is gorgeous, and the house is just a few blocks from fun restaurants and the beach. The owners were easy to work with and responsive. We were six adults, escaping our kids for a weekend of relaxation and fun and we achieved that and more. Thanks for sharing this special place with us.

Fancy Flamingo Perfect Paradise
Fancy Flamingo was in a quiet area on a cul-du-sac and near the end of a canal. When you walk in the front door, the view through the updated kitchen/living/dining room across the covered patio/pool/hot tub and onto the canal dock was gorgeous!!! The house was furnished with comfortable reclining leather couches, modern bar stools and dining table and chairs. The pool area was huge with a large hot tub and lots of quality furniture in outdoor sitting areas. The 2 master suites were quality and comfortable. The trundle/daybed added sleeping space for children in the 3rd queen bedroom. We were very pleased with Fancy Flamingo, and will return in the future.

A Great Week
Would give this property 5 stars had the hot tub heated. It took 3 days out of our 7 day stay to get it working. (Given no discount) The pool was great as well as the house. Would stay there again. Quiet neighborhood and great outdoor seating spaces. We had fun playing corn hole. Be prepared to buy spices, cooking oil, and all basic items. Nothing in pantry or small sample shampoos provided for renters. That would also make it a 5 star place. All in all it was a great vacation rental in which I recommend. I’d rate it 4+++ stars.

Excellent vacation!!
Our week at the Little Mermaid was phenomenal! The home was extremely clean, well equipped and extremely comfortable! The management company was there for any question we had during our stay. My only complaint was that the week flew by way to quickly. I almost shed a tear leaving the house. Thank you for a wonderful vacation!!

Truly Great Experience
This property was just as described and more. I thought the pics looked great when booking but the interior of the house is even nicer in person. The two king suites were perfect for our group! The pool and hot tub area was perfect! We spent the majority of our week long vacation hanging out at the pool because it was so nice. It was a couple of blocks to walk to get to the ocean and the beach was flawless there as well. I would highly recommend this property to anyone. Management was super easy to deal with. Couldn't have asked for a better place for our Anna Maria Island stay!
