Absolutely perfect home…beautiful pool…peaceful area. Our grandson kept telling me he didn’t want to go home…he wanted to stay at the Florida house. A++ vacation home.

This home was a perfect fit for our 3 generational family. Impeccably clean with high quality bedding and furnishings. Kitchen was well supplied with high quality dishes and cookware. Two refrigerators and icemaker. Pool was lovely and enjoyed by all. Safety alarms on slider doors to pool. Easy 5 min walk to the beach - we loved that all beach gear was available including a heavy duty wagon and a Neso beach canopy - big improvement over umbrellas! Also sand toys and floats.
Great communication with owner from before we arrived through the easy checkin. We hope to return here next year!

We could not have asked for a better house for our beach getaway! First, communication with Stephanie was outstanding! The first floor layout and easy backyard accessibility was great for our family. We’ve stayed in a multi-level house before and the one story layout was MUCH better for us. Location, location, location! We love the Anna Maria and Holmes Beach areas and the house is perfectly located between the two. Then the added bonus of being within walking distance to the beach was the cherry on top! All this while being on a quiet street! The house had everything we needed and more! We are so thankful to have found such a wonderful property!!

We were impressed from the moment we pulled up to the house. It was exactly as described and just what we needed for our all adult family getaway. Each couple had their own bathroom, which is a huge bonus. The house was very clean and had so many thoughtful touches. We cooked several meals at the house so we were very appreciative of the spices and seasonings in the pantry. The host was super responsive and answered the few questions that I had. We will be returning to Ana Maria Island and would definitely stay at this home again!

Great time in AMI again. Weather was perfect! House is completely updated. Pool area so lush and secluded. House even supplied shampoo and conditioner in each bathroom! Excellent location near beach and restaurants. Hosts were great communicators.

Our group of five ladies loved our stay and rarely left the house except to walk to the beach. The house is beautifully appointed with great attention to details. We did a lot of cooking and appreciated all the available kitchen amenities. Stephanie was very available to us if we had questions; she is an attentive host. We will be returning!

This is the perfect house for a family. This house is so gorgeous on the inside and has a heated pool! The beds were comfy too!! The location was awesome and you couldn’t ask for better house amenities. It was fully stocked with everything you would need for a long weekend at an island.

The house was set up amazing for our stay with 7 people. Pool was unbelievable and felt like you were in a tropical jungle. House was clean and perfect! Amazing location. We will definitely be back and will stay at the same house as again. Best beach cart I have ever seen!!!

Second time at Unwind Sunshine and hopefully not our last! The home and property are top notch and Cy and Stephanie are gracious hosts, always available and so accommodating. It's easy to hang out at the beautiful pool or take a short walk to the beach.

This house was perfect for our vacation with seven adults. The house was beautiful, clean, and well stocked with beach supplies, kitchen supplies, etc. Every detail was thought of. The private pool was wonderful. We used it everyday. The house is also extremely close to the beautiful beach. The owners were very quick to respond and answer any questions. It was a pleasure to stay in their home! I can’t say enough good things about it! We can’t wait to come back and stay here again!

Beautiful home in quiet, central location. House was well equipped for every need, beautifully decorated with gorgeous pool/garden area. We particularly liked the way the house was laid out on one floor. There were only four sharing but there would be more than ample room if a there was a ‘full house’.
5.0
Fully updated and clean home! We loved the one story floor plan with pool right off the living room/kitchen. I cannot say enough about how quick and helpful our hosts were to questions. We were a block from the beach with an awesome sun shade, plenty of chairs and beach toys. Loved the fridge in the garage for all our beverages. Pool guy came twice and yard clean up crew came too so all was clean and tidy. Hosts were very open to any suggestions to make our stay better including fixing noisy bed springs. We are already looking at dates for next year to try to rent this property again. We love the location which is so close to great food too! Thank you for helping us make great memories!

The house is was perfect for our first stay on Anna Marie Island. The house was clean, open, and just perfect for our group of 8. The pool felt tropical and secluded. Easy walking distance to the beach was a huge bonus as well. Highly recommend.

The house was better than we expected. Vary spacious, quiet, and clean. Pool is amazing. Had a new grill, plus the ice maker in the kitchen was a nice touch. 2 full size refrigerators were nice to have.
Heard the word “repeat” many times from our crew. Owner was nice, and let us drop some luggage off early to shuttle to the airport for arriving family members.

We loved our stay. Plenty of room and it was stocked with wagon, chairs, and sand toys for kids. Loved the pool. Stephanie was great. Short walk to beach. We would stay here again but it is already rented for next year.

The property was wonderful as was the house. I have one minor suggestion. The weather ended up being very chilly and a couple of extra blankets for the beds would have been very welcomed.
Otherwise the whole experience was awesome!! Thank you!!

No detail missed
As my wife walked around she kept pointing out decorating ideas for us. High end finishes everywhere set this home apart from every other one we have rented. Not a single complaint or wish that something else was included. Definitely would rent again!

Highly recommend this beautiful and well appointed house, 5-10 minutes walk to the ocean. The proximity to the beach and the heated pool are the best. Central location, easy walk or bike ride to restaurants / shops. Very clean house, beautiful design and decor. We had our parents (77 years old) with us and they enjoyed the easy walks around the neighborhood and the one story footprint of the house.
5 stars:)

Don’t look any further! Just book it! You found the one & only perfect house on the island!
Stephanie and Cy love this place and you can feel that in every detail. The house is loved and taken good care of.
The check in is as easy as it can be, so is the communication with your hosts. You feel in good hands from the moment you open the door to that beautiful place!
Enjoyable walk to the beach, perfect location, super clean and welcoming, best hosts ever! The bedrooms are very comfortable, the kitchen has everything you need, the living room is perfect for an evening with friends or family, the pool is heated even in winter (that’s the rarest thing i have never seen on AMI) and very warm!
We were traveling with kids and stayed in a few houses on the island within the $500-1000 range and this one is by far the winner!
