The spacious 3 bedroom house was perfect. We loved the pool and hot tub. Located within walking distance of beaches, restaurants and shops. An added bonus was seeing manatees while kayaking!

We loved our stay at this property. Already book return trip for next year. The location was perfect. It was very private and peaceful during our stay. The house included every thing we needed to make our stay comfortable and relaxing. See you next year!

The location and layout of the home were great. We appreciated the games, wagon, beach toys, and kitchen accessories. However the pool was not heated and not cleaned until mid week, the spa did not work, the home was not very clean or in good repair, the water heater had only enough hot water for 3 short showers and the linens and other amenities were carelessly stocked-extra towels but only3 washcloths, one potholder, one dish towel, and only a few of the things we were told would be there. It was very disappointing for the children who had been promised a heated pool and for the adults who had paid extra for for a rental with a heated pool.

Good proximity to the beach, clean and relaxing!

This was our third time staying in the house - it’s kept beautifully and we love being able to spend time in it and on Anna Maria island

Property was very nice, the detail cleaning could have been better the door frame from the deck into the house could have been cleaner as well as above the door frames. Also using the garage was difficult. The lower entry pad did not work and had to go upstairs and come down everytime we wanted to park the car/cart inside. I went to the office as directed to get a remote but they said they said never had one. This was a little frustrating.

The house was great! It was clean and had everything we needed. Slept 6 adults comfortably. Quiet neighborhood. Enjoyed the pool and spa area. Key code sent to us and able to go straight to the house. Conveniently located and walking distance to a few places to eat. We rented a golf cart and were able to go most places on the island. Would definitely stay here again.

We recently stayed for a week with our daughter, son-in-law and three grandsons. The house is perfectly located on a canal, at the North End of Anna Maria, which is our favorite area. Once there, you really don't need to drive. The shops and restaurants of Pine Avenue are less than a mile from the house, and the beach is only 3-4 blocks away. There are many nice things about this home, including a huge screened deck/lanai with lovely canal views, and a nice pool and hot tub area. We loved the open layout of the main floor and having a washer/dryer on that level. We also enjoyed having coffee on the dock and one morning, saw a group of manatees--they are huge! The garage area has ping-pong and foosball tables which the kids enjoyed. There were a couple of locked bikes in garage we couldn't use, and one with a flat tire. We ended up renting bikes from Beach Bums in town--highly recommended! I would say that the upstairs master suite, where we grandparents stayed, needs some TLC. The bathroom miniblinds were broken & the exhaust fan did not work.. The shower was slow to drain, so a shower involved standing in ankle deep water. In addition, the blow dryer didn't work, but there was another one downstairs. . PROS: Nicely decorated and outfitted; great location w mature trees and canal access; plenty of kid's activities. CONS: some minor maintenance issues; Lots of steps.

Would definitely stay again

We enjoyed our stay. The location is perfect for our family. Being close to the beach and away from the busy part of the island was great. The house was nice and clean. There was everything we needed in the kitchen. The only issue we had is that the beds were not very comfortable and are very stiff. The pool and hot tub worked great. It was nice having the dock in the canal to fish from and launch the kayaks. I highly recommend this spot for anyone wanting a private location close to the beach!

We absolutelty loved this home! We knew nothing about AMI and feel like we totally lucked out finding this home to rent. We loved the sliding glass doors opening up to the absolutely private backyard pool and view of the intercoastal waters/deck. The kitchen is perfectly equipped. beds were great! 3 minute walk to the beach and an easy walk to Pine St... we recommend renting a golf cart for sure though! (Reserve early if you can) Vacasa rep was extremely responsive when needed for a minor thing! We would definitley look to rent again!

There are absolutely no condiments spices or anything to get you started. Not enough toilet paper or paper products to last a family for a week. Be sure to take everything you might need or at least enough to get you through the first day or two so you can go shopping.

This house had everything we needed. It was clean and cute! I love that it was spacious enough that even after we brought all our gear in there was still plenty of room for us in the house. It still felt spacious. The backyard felt very private and the pool was beautiful. Loved the location too.

This home exceed our expectations. Most importantly for us, it is just a few blocks from the beach. A short stroll out the front door and we were on what seemed like our own private beach. We walked up to bean point and down to The Sandbar for drinks and snacks. It is perfectly located! From the moment we arrived, the home was bright, airy and inviting. It was meticulously clean...every bathroom, bedroom and kitchen (which is fully stocked for all cooking needs). The linens and towels appeared brand new. The washer and dryer worked great for keeping our beach towels clean. And the owners even provided an in depth book outlining Anna Maria favorite places to go and instructions on how to turn on the hot tub, lights, etc. We had 3 generations, from 12-83 yrs old and the home accommodated everyone's needs. After the first night, we all commented on how comfortable the beds were...even the pull out sofa. With such a vast age range, the home met all our needs. The front porch is a perfect spot to get away for a quiet read, while the screened in porch overlooking the pool is great for dining or monitoring kids in the pool. Another spot we enjoyed was on the lower level. One evening we grilled steaks and dined by the pool. We had such a busy week, we didn't get a chance to play ping-pong or foosball....hopefully next time for sure! There were even a few bikes in the garage which made for a nice tour around the area. The kids often popped out to the dock for a turn on the kayak and manatee watching. This home provided the perfect get-away for our family. Thank you and we can't wait for a return visit.

This house was absolutely perfect! It was very clean and we also enjoyed the quiet area. The pool and the bay located behind the house was a wonderful place to swim and kayak!

Loved the close proximity to beach. Great pool area. FYI, only one kayak (two person). Would return in the future.

We loved our week at this property! The pool was fabulous! Location was spectacular, we saw manatees right by the dock! Easy access to the beach. Tons of room in the beach decorated house. Comfy furniture, cozy beds! Zero complaints! Our family truly loved this home!

Beautiful yard & pool area! Short walk to the beach. Nice house well equipped for vacationers :)

We loved Heavenly Holly and were disappointed that it was already booked for next year at this time! We especially loved the pool, the outdoor shower, the location which is very close to the gulf beach, yet still within walking or biking distance to the North shore Rod and Reel Pier as well as Pine Avenue. The upstairs master suite is a wonderful place for parents to escape to and the house is perfectly set up to host a small family or two couples and few kids. We loved the decor and appreciated how clean it was. The only thing I can think of is that maybe they stock extra towels. There were plenty of linens for beds and extra blankets to cozy up with in the evenings and early mornings. Will definitely come back!

Great location, the outdoor patio space and pool was amazing. Quiet neighborhood and nice neighbors. A short walk/ride to many beach access areas and restaurants.

We enjoyed this house! It was very clean and very spacious! Only a few problems the key pad lock did not work and someone came to fix it and then could not fix and we never heard about it again. Then the dead bolt did not work as well which posed a problem for our 19 month old that kept opening the door. In addition pool never appeared to be heated which we asked about but were told it was the correct temp?

We had a fantastic time at this property. Pool was great, location was great, beach was gorgeous and easy to stay away from other people. Plenty of umbrellas and beach chairs and towels. The kitchen was very well stocked with anything you could need. I've rented 3 homes on vacations before and this one by far had the best stock of pots and pans and utensils! The neighbor Scott was very nice and greeted us as soon as we arrived. He even hopped on a bike and showed my husband where the beach access was. (all though the directions provided in the book inside the home were sufficient). The decor was pretty and it was nice to have the master seperated from the other 2 rooms. My girls enjoyed having their own room. Would definitely rent this house again if we go back!

Wonderfully private property with beautiful view of the pool and dock from the porch. We had a fishing charter pick us up right off the dock and saw a manatee swim up to the dock while we were waiting for the boat. Lots of beach chairs and pool floats as well as a kayak and ping pong table to enjoy. The Sea Grape beach access provides a very secluded spot on the beach everyday!

Excellent house and space. Easy stroll to the beach. Excellent pool.

Great pool, fishing & kayaking off dock, 1 1/2 block to beach, few blocks to Rod & Reel Pier & Bean Point Sunset & near Pine Ave. Ping pong table was a pleasant surprise:)

We loved how quiet the north end of the island is. It’s away from it all, yet close to everything you want to get to. The house was nice, clean, and we enjoyed our stay.

This home was perfect. We had a double family of 7 and all of our needs were met. Short walk or golf cart ride to the beach, great lanai overlooking the canal and our own private dock for the kids to fish from. The home had all amenities and essentials you could ask for, gas grill, charcoal grill, pool, hot tub, beach chairs, I could go on and on. Definitely worth visiting!

The home is amazing! We were looking for a house with a large enough pool for the kids to play, a dock for my son to fish and a location at the north end to have a quieter beach vacay! This home delivered. The view of the canal is beautiful and lots of great spots to relax after a day playing at the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. House was only 2 blocks from the beach once we found the hidden beach access. For the price Of the home stay, just wish the dishes and sauté pans were on par.

Nice home, lots of space to relax and close walking distance to very nice beach.
