Great family trip

We ended up booking this property last minute after the condo we were planning on staying in was struck by lightning. All of the staff we spoke with were helpful and accommodating. While we have always stayed beachfront and were worried about beach access, we found it was only a short block to the access and very convenient. Having a private pool to come back to after a day in the sun was a nice bonus. The house had everything we needed and a great washer and dryer. It was clean and ready for our arrival. We would definitely consider this house again in the future if we decided to move off beach front.

Great location!

Our family stayed here for our 2nd time and we couldn’t be more happy with the location and the property itself. The private pool was such a nice touch and got plenty of use from us! When anything came up a quick text sent to the property manager and they had someone come out to fix it or let us know when someone would be by. We would definitely stay here again!

Great House

This was the first time we stayed in Holmes Beach and we were nervous about not being closer to Pine street but after our stay we might prefer this location more! The house was so close to the beach and our teens loved the pool. The landscaping made it feel very private. I especially loved the sliders in the living room. It made the living space feel more spacious and I could watch the kids easily from inside. We would definitely stay here again.

Great Location!

Rental was in a cute neighborhood that we enjoyed walking every day. It’s an easy walk to beach! The rental was spotless when we arrived! The outdoor area and pool were my favorite part. The pool was heated which was great since our weather wasn’t the best during our stay. I would definitely stay here again!

House was great! Family of 6 and had plenty of room. Beach is 2-3 minute walk right across the street. House had beach chairs, cooler, & some beach toys. Pool was warm and very clean. House has everything you need. Very clean, plenty of kitchen/cookware, grill, comfy beds and is just an awesome house. Property group is SUPER responsive and will take care of whatever you need right away…like sameday/within hours. We are going to book this house again!!

Wonderful house

I rented this house for our week vacation. House was clean, spacious, and convenient located. The house is very close to the beach we walked for like not even 2 minutes to the beach… Communication with management was efficient by phone and text message. The house description matched and the pool is great. My family and I enjoyed our stayed there and definitely we will stay again there. The only downside of the house are Palmetto bugs we called management on Saturday and by Monday pest control was there. After the visit we saw less but still were there just make sure you wash everything before you use in the kitchen the good thing is that I brought all kind disposal utensils and we did not use plates and other things from the house.

Great location. Plenty of space for 5 adults. Close to beach. Private pool a great bonus. We would definitely go back. Had a few issues: check in was slightly delayed; outdoor area by the pool had litter from previous guests and pool was not cleaned; grill broken. Most of our communication about these issues was positive.

Had a great stay at this AMI Locals property. The unit was clean, well laid out for our family of 5 and an easy skip to the beach for sunset every night. The heated pool was a major plus and we used it as much as the beach. Looking forward to our next trip to AMI!

AMAZING PROPERTY!

Pictures are accurate, and the unit was very clean. Smart TVs with Roku in the bedrooms. Would like to have had that on the tv in the living room. It didn't work real well, but we got along fine. Super close to the beach. About a 1/2 a block to walk there. One of THE nicest properties we have stayed in during the last 12 years we have been traveling to Florida. Hands down THE best property management group as well!! Hope they start managing properties in the Fort Myers Beach and Naples areas where we travel most. We hope to come back!

Christmas stay

We really enjoyed our stay over Christmas 2019. Great location, only a 3 minute walk to beach, house was stocked with beach chairs, a wagon and 2 bikes. We also got a lot of use out of the heated pool. We had a family of 8 adults, so house was a tad cramped for that many but still functional with use of pull out bed in sofa in family room. Beds are very firm, house was super clean, great for a family of 4-6.
