We absolutely loved our stay here on Anna Maria Island! The building complex felt very safe and peaceful, and the location couldn’t have been better. The beach was just perfect — crystal clear blue water and soft sand — truly beautiful!Everything was close by and easy to get to, which made our trip so relaxing. The host was incredibly kind and helpful, and we really appreciated that personal touch.We will definitely be coming back soon. Highly recommend!

The love shack is amazing. The pictures do not do it justice. It was cozy, had plenty of towels, all the kitchen supplies you would need, beach chairs/umbrella and big TVs in both bedrooms. We enjoyed fishing in the canal and hoping over to 2 scoops for ice cream or a quick snack. Location was great!

Right in the Heart of AMI!

This condo is in the PERFECT location! It was clean, fully stocked, and nicely decorated. We enjoyed the canal behind the condo, which is right outside the patio doors. There’s two ice cream shops and restaurants within walking distance. We rented a golf cart to ride around the island, which made going out and to the beach so easy being this condo is so close to everything. Great rental!!

Great accommodations that had everything, including beach chairs. Very close to very nice beaches, walking distance. Close to many options for dining. We didnt rent a car, but you can rent bikes or golf court, and there is also a free shuttle that takes you across the island. The home is very comfortable and clean. Recommend staying here.

Perfect location

Perfect location- we loved being so close to everything, the beach was a block over but we could see it, the canal was cool too and we say Manatees. The interior of the property is very nice- pictures are exact. The beds were Very comfortable! Kitchen was stocked. A cooler would have been nice. The beach towels & chairs were great. We also saw dolphins right out front! Beautiful safe area and everyone is so friendly. Delicious Ice cream right across the street with lots of snack options. We ate at several restaurants including Slims (very local vibe ), the Porch (absolutely amazing- all 4 of us had the best food), the Sandbar (delicious and best location right on the beach)- we wanted to eat at all of them but didn’t have enough time. The location of the market for other supplies was great. The trolley system was perfect. We wish we had another day using that- went to Bridge street and had a blast. Rented bikes several days too- Very nice! Thank you Florida for sharing your amazing island with Wisconsin folks!

Nice place

This place is extremely well designed with the space they have available. Everything has a spot. We really enjoyed how close we were to the water and all the shops. The beds were good enough for sleeping and it was really great to come back to the place after a long beach day. Really good base of operations. Fun times in Anna Maria!

Cozy Condo

The owner was very helpful and answered all of my questions! Check in was very easy. The condo was very cozy! The beds were comfortable, and each room had a TV. There was also an air mattress that was convenient and comfortable. My daughter and husband borrowed a fishing pole from the neighbor above us and fished in the canal. They spotted a starfish, and a dolphin swam through the canal, which was both surprising and amazing. The kitchen had plenty of space and cookware. There were people in the unit above us, but we couldn't really even hear them. The property is very quiet and peaceful! I knew housekeeping had been through because the bedding was fresh, etc, but I do feel like the unit could use a good "spring cleaning". The kitchen cabinets needed a good wipe down, dresser drawers had dust and some hair in them and needed a good wipe down as well. It was still a wonderful place but just wanted to mention this tip for the cleaning crew.

Perfect place for our trip!

We were so pleased with our stay here! The rental had everything we needed and was so convenient. The rental is private and quiet and yet right in the middle of everything. I walked across the road to watch the sunrise over the bay each morning because it was so close and it was easily my favorite part of the trip. We also had ice cream every night at Two Scoops - maybe that was a little too close and convenient ;) The mattresses and bedding were extremely comfortable! The living area and kitchen fit our needs perfectly. The bathrooms were clean and well stocked. This was our first time to Anna Maria Island and our whole family loved every minute. We can’t recommend this rental enough! We hope to be back soon!
