The family condo is a great place to enjoy a Florida vacation and a getaway you'll never forget. Its spacious layout gives plenty of room to relax while being surrounded by the beachy decor, creating the perfect ambiance for a true beach getaway. Enjoy evenings around the firepit sharing hilarious stories with your friends or soak in some rays by the heated pool while lounging in your own private oasis. The living area is another great place to gather thanks to the comfortable and large, L-shaped sofa strategically placed in front of the flatscreen TV. Right outside your door is a great view, just steps from the beach!
You'll find some of Anna Maria's best spots well within your reach. Just a short walk away are white sandy beaches of the Gulf, just right outside your door. Nearby trolly stops will give you access to all of the island - simply sit back and enjoy the ride. Great island dining and shopping are a small trip away. Enjoy local island boutiques or great local cuisine. Orlando might be 126 miles away, but it's totally worth the day trip! There you'll experience a fun-filled adventure thanks to Walt Disney World Parks, Universal Theme Parks, SeaWorld, and more!

Close to beach, great neighborhood
10.0 / 10.0
We had a great time at Crab Shack. Place was clean and roomy. Beach was so close easy to get to. This area of the beach is not crowded like other more touristy areas. We have no complaints and would definitely stay here again.

The location is the best part about this house! Just a short walk to the beach that wasn’t overcrowded at all. We appreciated all of the beach gear and towels that were provided. The house could have been cleaner overall. There were bugs in the bathrooms (both dead and alive) and trash from the previous guests. The coffee pot could use an upgrade. We had spills all over the counter every morning. The backyard could also use some lights. It was pitch black when my kids wanted to swim at night. The pool was cloudy most of the week and super hot. Overall, we were happy with our stay, but there was definitely some room for improvement.
10.0 / 10.0
We enjoyed the Crab Shack for a weeklong getaway. The combination of a block walk to a quiet beach, 2 block walk to the Trolley stop for a free ride from end to end of the island and a pool and hot tub on your back patio for relaxing after exploring all day, makes this a very easy place to enjoy. I would book this property again when returning to Anna Maria.

This house is wonderful!! The walk to the uncrowded beach is easy and short. The pool was sparkling clean and warm the whole time we were there. Plenty of cooking utensils, beach chairs, towels, etc. Everything you need for your stay. All amenities and instructions were easy to use/follow. It is also comfortable and beautifully decorated. We will definitely stay here again when we come back to the island!

The home was clean and had everything we needed. Close to the beach, shopping and restaurants.

Overall this was a wonderful place to stay. Super close to the beach! Hot tub and small salt water pool. Well stocked kitchen and had some soaps/TP to get you started. Only drawback was they did not service the pool after we called mid week. Disappointing. Otherwise we really enjoyed our stay.
6.0 / 10.0
Overall the house was nice, close walk to the beach was fantastic. Cleanliness of the pool/hot tub area was not great. By the 4th day, the water was turning green. After 4 different phone calls, the issue wasn't resolved and there was no one to clean it until our checkout day. It was a very disappointing experience considering how much $$$ is cost to stay at the house.
10.0 / 10.0
Awesome location. Walking distance to the beach, groceries, some restaurants. A couple blocks off the main road so it was much more quiet.
Backyard pool, hot tub, TV, gas fire pit, screened in porch were all AMAZING. Pool gets afternoon shade so you can get out of the sun after a while.
It’s a duplex but we hardly heard anything.
Kitchen had everything we needed to prepare food for any meal. Dining room table and comfy couch made for fun games/movies.
Literally the only (minor) downsides: Bathrooms are a bit snug and we could not find a hair dryer anywhere.
If Anna Maria/Holmes Beach is your thing, this place seems really hard to beat!

Location, Location, Location. Property was super close to the beautiful beach. Pool and hot tub were nice and back yard was great. Inside the house was ok. The main problem was the master bathroom had what looked like mites or some kind of small insect crawling around the bathroom and up the shower walls. That was a real turn off.

It was a very short walk to the beach and it’s a beautiful home. We had a few issues which the management attempted to resolve to our satisfaction. The pool and hot tub were great and the beds were very comfortable for our family with three young children and an elderly person with us. We liked this home a lot.

Loved it here!
This home had absolutely everything and more we could have asked for when on vacation. It was clean, beautifully decorated, had towels for the pool, beach chairs, hot tub, two fire pits, and much more. It was really close to the beach as well. We would highly recommend it to anyone!

great beach house
The house was almost perfect! it was so close to the beach (30 second walk) and the pool and fires were such a great add on. We did have some issues with the kitchen sink, but it got fixed within hours after we called! Would definitely recommend staying here for a trip to AMI.

Nice beach house
Love the the location. Although it’s 2 blocks away from the beach it’s such a short walk. The private pool is a plus and they have most everything we needed. I would suggest minor changes but will definitely rent this place again.
