Not enough comfortable furniture

Not enough comfortable furniture

Why would a vacation rental have a master bedroom bigger than the living/dining area? This was most definitely not big enough for 6 people. Yes it could sleep 6 but there was not room for 6 in the kitchen/living/dining area. We would not use this again.

Definitely will be returning!

The property lived up to the photos and description. Everything was clean, well maintained and modern. Plenty of room for a family of 5. High ceilings and bright interior. Even though there were a couple of other units sharing the pool, it really felt like our own private oasis. The pool is well hidden from the roads and very relaxing. We took advantage of the bar be que and outdoor dining table. There was easy access to the beach, which was just steps away and not crowded where we were. Plus we didn't have to worry about parking. There is a public access beach a few hundred yards up the beach with store, restaurant and outdoor bar. An easy walk to there as well. Plenty of other restaurants within walking distance and other amenities like groceries, coffee and beach stores. Plenty of other small, local stores and restaurants to explore at the north and south ends of the island. Five stars, five thumbs up. We'll definitely be returning to this location!

Wonderful location, short walk to the beach. The shared patio/pool area was very nice. Just wish there was a pantry or shelves for food in the kitchen, otherwise ideal setup for our family of 4!

Great stay!

This property was great overall and we really enjoyed our stay. Everything was clean, it was a very close walk to the beach, the pool area was nice and relaxing and the management company was prompt about bringing batteries for the remotes. The only downsides were the lack of space for non -refrigerated food in the kitchen (a shelf or something would help) and the mattress in the 2nd bedroom on the bottom bunk sunk in a lot/wasn't firm. Overall we had a great stay and would return. thanks!

This is a beautiful little home in an incredible location. The home was very tastefully decorated and the pool area was just lovely. The kitchen isn't overly functional being so small but honestly if it was just my husband and I and not with our 3 kiddos, we probably wouldn't have noticed as much. Would love to come back!

Gorgeous beach, good location, Cute but small lodging

Gorgeous beach, good location, Cute but small lodging

The apartment was very cute and very small. It does look like the pictures. However, we did not realize how small the living area would be. The kitchen could barely seat four people (we were five-two kids). I have no idea how 8 people could stay here. The kitchen was ill equipped. The building you see in the photos is divided into two apartments. The pool was nice but a little too green. (repairs were suppose to happen but did not before we left). The location is truly so close to the beach. The beach is magnificent. I only wished we could have seen the beach from our location.

Fantastic location and place!

Our casita was adorable; clean; and the amenities on property are fantastic! This is a small property with 8 places that share a wonderful green space (faux grass - the best); a pool; BBQ grills; and nice outdoor furniture. It was so comfortable and had everything we needed for everyone to have fun. The beach is gorgeous and the location is spot on because it is slightly out of the way so not over crowded like other parts of AMI beach. We are from Florida and have our own rental properties and honestly, this was a great setup - we had everything we needed for a relaxing stay with our kids!

Great Location - Probably Great for a Family with Kids

great location! so close to the beach, shared pool in the backyard, and grill area. Probably needed a good cleaning prior to us arriving (e.g. hairs on cushions, bugs in kitchen). Meant for smaller groups. We were 8 adults and it was tight for space - not enough utensils, chairs, etc. Overall good place to stay for a couple or couple with small kids.

Beautiful peaceful retreat

Beautiful peaceful retreat

Appears to be a remodel down to the studs. Everything looks brand new. Quiet neighborhood 2 short blocks from the beach. Clean and quiet. Salt water heated pool. Comfortable beds, towels and linens. Just a couple of small observations that would make it even better. 1. Another towel rack in master bath. 2. A small buffet table with shelves under the window in the kitchen. Counter and storage space for groceries is very limited. 3. Move the tv credenza over and put a comfortable chair in the corner by the door to the pool deck. Only seating in living area is a couch. Sitting 3 side by side on the couch isnt the best for having a conversation. OK for tv watching. In a place with beds for 4 people, seating is inadequate. We loved this place, and would definitely stay here again! The above tips would have made it even better.

Great spot on Anna Maria Island

We had a great stay at this property! We had plenty of room for 5 adults - the bedrooms are big. The living space is small, as accurately described in the listing, but is arranged very efficiently to feel bigger than it is. The heated pool was great! A short walk to the gorgeous beach plus a short walk the other direction to a Publix, CVS, and Walgreens plus several other small shops (don’t miss Holy Cow for ice cream!) We will definitely rent here again.
