Absolutely beautiful house

This house is exactly like the pictures. Beautiful, roomy, clean, and just amazing. The entire family enjoyed it. The game room was just perfect for the kids and to keep them busy. Beautiful clean pool. Only reason I gave it 4 stars is because there was a pool vacuum in the pool 24/7 and became somewhat annoying and in the way of enjoying the pool. Could not swim across the pool as the vaccum hose would go across the pool. If it wasn’t for that, this house would be “PERFECT”

Our anniversary

The property was very clean and comfortable. Our only issue was that we paid ahead of time for the pool to be heated, We arrived on Saturday and left on Sunday. We arrived at 6 pm and the pool wasn't heated. We contacted staff and they sent someone out the next morning. All in all it was a great stay. Our only issue was that we wanted the pool heated as soon as we arrived and we didn't have that luxury.

Great Location to beaches!

This was a Christmas getaway to visit family. We wanted to be close to to Anna Maria Island and beaches with a friendly price point. The location was perfect you could easily drive to the beaches in 10 minutes. The house was very very clean with a beautiful kitchen and very well stocked. The master bedroom was large with a comfortable king bed. The 3rd bedroom with 2 twin beds was extremely small and the twin beds were not very comfortable for my 14 year old or sister in law. My suggestion if renting this home 3rd bedroom needs to be used for small children. There is a pull out king in the sunroom we would have used however the mattress needs to be replaced. Overall we had an excellent stay, we would highly recommend this property. The pool is great, wish the weather would have been a little warmer but we still had a great time. The property management is very attentive to details and requests.
