We have nothing but great things to say about Nest on the Beach and Liza. The house was spotless. She greeted us upon arrival to show us around which was great. The area is perfect! Having a pool made it especially great for the kids. The house has every possible amenity to make for a stress free stay, even a child safety alarm at the pool door. The kitchen was fully equipped, WiFi excellent… I just don’t have enough good things to say! We will rent a golf cart next time to get around. It’s so close to everything - golf cart is easier than a car. We are thankful for the experience and the lovely owners who rented us the house.

There isn't much we can add that hasn't already been said in other reviews. The house is immaculate, the views are stunning, the pool and hot tub are relaxing. The host was very helpful. We plan to be back.

Amazing house and location!! Nothing but the best, we enjoyed every minute.

We had a wonderful time! The home is beautiful and fully stocked with everything you need. We loved that the pool was shaded by the second floor deck. It kept the water cool and refreshing. The owner was lovely and very helpful. We had a perfect vacation.

Five star reviews should be reserved for those truly special events, accommodations, and hosts who go above and beyond what they should be providing to their guests. Meeting expectations shouldn’t be worth five stars. That said, I very rarely leave five star reviews. This is the exception - the location, the cleanliness, the thoughtfulness of the host, everything was above and beyond what you could possibly expect from a vacation rental. It felt like staying with family. You will not go wrong booking this home. There are no downsides. There are no “but…”. There are no “if only…” or suggestions on this one. Bring your family, bring your luggage, come check in and prepare to relax for the entire week.

Be prepared to be welcomed as a guest. The homeowner is very accommodating and responsive. We were provided with many suggestions of things to do on the island. Beautiful home and beach!

Beautiful property and hosts who are attentive but give you space. 4th time there and we will return!

Absolutely beautiful home and property at a very convenient location on AMI. We enjoyed our stay at Nest on the Beach and Liza was very helpful and provided top notch hospitality! The views were unbeatable and the home was extremely clean. Thank you, thank you!

Amazing property and location. Excellent management and communication with owner.

This place is about as good at it gets. On the beach, plenty of space, all amenities are as advertised. It was a great vacation.

Absolutely gorgeous home and location! The property owner was gracious and accommodating! One of the most memorable vacations we have had! We are looking forward to returning in the future. Highly recommend for family vacations!

Wonderful sunsets, beautiful home , Liza is delightful and very attentive If it had not been so cold, we would have had a perfect week at the beach

We loved the house and loved being on the beach! We will definitely be coming back.

From the moment we arrived we knew our stay wouldn’t be anything less than exceptional. Liza was as welcoming as the home! Every detail was carefully thought out inside and out. We felt at home (if only our home was built on the beach)!

The house is beautiful and user friendly! Liza didn’t miss a detail in hosting- including a welcoming champagne reception! The decorating is beautiful, beds comfy and location perfect. We will be back!

Liza is a great host: attentive, friendly, considerate and very easy to work with. The property is in a fantastic location, amazing views with beach access, very well equipped, well designed and very tastefully furnished. We hope we will return !

From the moment Liza welcomed us to Nest on the Beach until checkout, when she offered to take a farewell photo of us with the Gulf as our background, everything was perfection! I could easily go on and on using every superlative adjective in the dictionary, but most importantly I can say I’m already working on the dates for our return!!

As all reviews express, this is a lovely house in a most beautiful situation. Liz, the host, was most helpful in advance of booking and was there to greet us on arrival. She was also available for any queries we had. The kitchen is very well equipped with all you could wish for. There is very generous provision of bathroom and pool towels, shower gel in each bathroom, dish washer tabs and laundry products - all the items you don’t wish to be without. Pool and jacuzzi are large and fabulous. Excellent in all ways. Thank you

This house and property absolutely amazing! Spectacular Gulf Views. Our hosts were wonderful. Great communication throughout. We will be back. Thank You!

Nest on the Beach has everything you could possibly want. The best views on the island gave us a reason to hurry back after dinner to watch the sunset from our balcony. With four adults and four kids, we had ample space to spread out and enjoy the week. The home is amazingly clean and well maintained by our wonderful host, Liza. Communication with Liza throughout the process was better than I have ever experienced while renting homes. We will definitely be back!

We love AMI! This was our first visit to this home and it was beautiful. High end furnishings, anything you need in the kitchen, very comfortable beds and linens, and beach chairs and supplies. The owners had great communication and were very quick to answer questions. Also appreciate their flexibility with our flight times and arrival/departures. We hope to be back soon!

It was the perfect vacation! Great property location and island.

From the moment you arrive you feel like you're in your own little piece of paradise. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool (every day), we cooked a few meals in the kitchen and the view of the gulf at sunset while cooking made it all that more enjoyable. The hosts were great with sending helpful suggestions for just about anything you would need while you are there. We definitely hope to visit again in the near future with some friends! Also, we highly recommend the sunset dinner at the Sandbar for one of your dinners.... oh, and donuts at The Donut Experiment!😋🍩

My family and I spent a perfect week at the Nest on the Beach. It'd be hard to overstate how lovely the property was and how accommodating and communicative a host Liza was. We had a range of ages from 18 months into the late 60s, with all the different preferences and activity levels that entails. The Nest was perfect for everyone. Just footsteps to some of the loveliest gulf beach we've ever seen, and all the amenities needed for a full beach day - chairs, tents, umbrellas, toys, coolers - were right there, already packed up in a convenient wagon. Walking distance (or a very short drive) to the main commercial streets of Anna Maria, with lots of charming restaurants, cafes, and ice cream shops. What really makes this property stand out are (1) the kindness of the owner; (2) the incredible gulf views (especially at sunset) on every level of the house; and (3) the beautiful, thoughtful interior decor. Some of our favorite memories: -Drinking margaritas on the balcony while watching the sunset every night. -Walking up the beach to Bean Point to look for shells and manatees. -Strolling down to Pine street after dinner for ice cream. Easily one of the very best vacation rentals any of us had the pleasure of staying in. We're already planning our return trip for next year.

Our stay was AMAZING!! Beautiful views, Exceptional home and overall an Awesome island! Liza was an excellent host! Our family will definitely make this trip again!

Wow! Everything about Nest on the Beach was spectacular! The location, the views, the home, the amenities, the host….it was an absolute dream to stay here. The beach was so peaceful and tucked away from crowded areas. We loved watching sunsets on the beach and walking back to the house for a swim in the pool with the fun lights! We loved all the wildlife - we saw manatees, bunnies, tortoises, and even saw sea turtles hatching! We will forever remember our first stay here and hope to make it back many times in the future!! Thank you, Liza, for an unforgettable vacation!

We had an amazing stay at The Nest. Perfect setting for a wonderful getaway. Liza & Kit were wonderful hosts!

The house is beautiful! The location is the best! The host’s were so helpful and very nice! We will be back for sure!

I don't even know where to begin - Nest on the Beach is hands down the most fabulous vacation rental we have ever had the privilege to rent - in AMI or elsewhere! Our amazing experience started with the excellent communication from the owner, Liza! She also greeted us upon arrival and departure, and had a wonderful cookie cake and bottle of wine for us to enjoy when we got there. The location of the home is absolutely perfect! The home itself is beyond beautiful, and it has everything you could possibly need for a beach vacation (kitchen is well stocked - everything you need including dish detergent, soap, trash bags; bathrooms have soap, shower gel, and toilet paper, along with qtips and tissues - hardly any rentals have these! and there is a great beach buggy with chairs, toys and umbrellas - amazing!). The home is sparkling clean, even the outdoor furniture!! The beds are extremely comfortable, and the linens are amazing! We thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in the family room, playing backgammon and cards, taking in the AMAZING view! The sunset views from the home were just stunning! The pool/hot tub was perfectly heated, and it is so nice to be under cover in the pool/hot tub after returning from a day on the beach! I have absolutely nothing negative to say about Nest on the Beach, it is a very special home, and we hope to return in the future!

What a wonderful week at Nest on the Beach. Liza, hands down was the perfect host! She greeted us and showed us around her lovely home. Knowing we were celebrating my husbands 60th birthday, she had a cookie cake, champagne, and a card waiting for him on the dining table ~ such a sweet surprise! The location of the home was fantastic, all the rooms were immaculate and well equipped with everything you could possibly want or need! Every morning we spent having coffee looking out to the ocean on the balcony and in the evening having drinks enjoying the sunsets. The beach was wonderful and having the pool and hot tub was such a bonus! We absolutely loved our stay at the Nest!

Nest on the Beach is such a gem. Liza and her husband thought through every little detail and it shows throughout—convenient location on AMI; beautiful fixtures; comfortable beds and furnishings; beach toys, chairs, umbrellas, and wagon; fantastic views; amazing outdoor shower; pool and hot tub that were shaded in the late afternoon—perfect for us all when we’d had enough sun; and so much more. Immediately upon booking, Liza sent a detailed message with wonderful local recommendations. It introduced us to the area but also set the tone for her excellent communication. Pine Ave. is close enough to walk or only a quick two minute drive. It was a perfect week, and we’re already booked for next year.
