Great property. Everything was perfect!

We rented this house for our yearly family vacation. It was perfect. The house was clean and the amenities were great for family’s of all ages. Great location and would definitely recommend for anyone looking to be in a great central location on the island while close to the beach. Beach access is close and easy.

We had a wonderful week at this home. The house was clean, well-stocked, and close to the beach. We loved the top floor private master suite with its own private balcony. The master had a very comfortable memory foam mattress. We’d definitely stay here again!

This is a great house for a family with multiple kids/teens. There's plenty of room for everyone. The location on the island is great; It's about a five minute walk to the entrance to the beach. The house was extremely well equipped from pool & beach supplies to cooking/kitchen needs. After loading in, we realized the next day that the refrigerator wasn't working. Property management was VERY responsive. He came in, verified the problem and was able to get a repair technician to the property the next morning. The property manager even brought a few bags of ice to help us store our perishables in the meantime. Definitely a great experience overall!

Property managers communication A+ House solid A- Pool area could use a couple upgrades. Outdoor flatscreen TV and a beverage center would go a long way. AMI itself- several charming shops and restaurants. Always something new to experience. We all really enjoyed the island. Neighborhood- Our advice would be to really think about what vacation means to you and your group. We (a group of 6 adults) were looking for sun, relaxation and some time to “cut loose” a bit. You might want to leave your Bluetooth speaker at home because a little loud music doesn’t seem welcomed around your own pool, even during the day. This is really the only reason we gave 3 stars under the location/community section of the review. The location is 5 stars for beach access, cleanliness and ease of access to restaurants and shops. You’ll have to go to the Sand Dollar or the Ugly Grouper to find more lively adult fun. Ugly Grouper within walking distance and the Sand Dollar a short golf cart ride away. We highly recommend renting a golf cart. Fun way to run down to the public beach, site see and even made running to the grocery store fun.

I am pretty particular about the houses/properties we rent for our vacations. This house and property turned out to be the perfect getaway for my wife and me and our three teenage daughters. The place feels like it is new and had everything we needed. The back yard had a tropical feel with a lot of privacy. The pool was a little smaller than I expected but was still a great place for us to spend time as a family. It also was a very short walk to the beach. This was our first time visiting Anna Maria. An overall fantastic experience if you're looking for a very nice home in a quiet place away from crowds and tourists...at least that was the case for us in December.

The property was great as was the neighborhood and proximity to beach and food. Loved the beach stuff available in the garage. Home was very well maintained and everything was as expected. Just a couple of things - the sun never got high enough in the sky to enjoy the pool (no sun in the backyard lower level) and a suggestion that the house come with some basic cleaning supplies. As we cooked it was hard to get things clean without kitchen spray of some variety. Would definitely recommend the home and the area to others. Thanks for a great stay!

We loved our stay! The house was perfect for my husband and I and our 4 teenage boys. They provided plenty of beach supplies, kitchen supplies, and we spent some great time playing ping pong when we got back. It was a short, easy walk to the beach, and the wagon they provided helped get all of our gear there. The layout of the bedrooms and bathrooms was great and the master was a beautiful retreat. We can't wait to come back!

The property and home are gorgeous. Close to the beach, trolley, dining and shopping. Very quiet neighborhood. Absolutely loved the place.

We had a great week on Anna Maria Island. The house is a short walk to the beach. The beach is not crowded at all, plenty of room to social distance. The pool was refreshing after spending time exploring the area or at the beach. Lots of local restaurants and shopping. We will definitely be back. It was a great relaxing week away.

This was a lovely house and a perfect location. We have 3 young kids and it was a short walk to the beach. The beach wasn’t crowded and we always had plenty of room to play. The house was very clean and spacious. The pool was a perfect size. We will definitely be back!

We stay at a lot of rental properties, and this is one of the nicest we've stayed at. The house and the furnishings are all in great shape and look very new. Kitchen was well stocked and comfortable to cook in. Everything was very clean. And it was very easy to get to the beach, we had a golf cart but you could easily walk the couple blocks. All around a well maintained, beautiful house. The house owners and property managers have nothing to do with nature, but nature is a part of your stay. Come prepared for mosquitos and have some spray. And the gulf side of FL can have red tide issues. Luckily it stayed south of us for our stay, but if you have respiratory issues, you'll want to research and consider red tide.

I would do it all over again!! The perfect place in a perfect location and perfect communication with rental management.

The home is gorgeous and perfect for hosting friends and family. The kitchen, in particular, is stocked with everything a cook could possibly want. The view from the top deck is beautiful. The only thing that could make this home better is if it was right on the beach instead of two blocks away.

First time on AMI! Loved the space; with three children enrolled in virtual school we just had enough footage to spread. Top floor master bedroom and outside verandah was fantastic. The house is newer and one of the tallest in the neighborhood so privacy is great. The pool was nice, a bit small, but good enough for young children. Garage for two cars with beach chairs and toys available. Ping-pong table on lower level. Back yard landscaping is beautiful. We rented bikes and loved cruising the island. Lovely restaurants nearby. Lots of options to choose from. Beach is fantastic. The managing agency “Once Upon the Beach” owner, Nikki & Mike, are amazing; very attentive and responsive.

We loved this house, and had a great stay. Was perfectly clean upon arrival, had everything we needed and it looks just like the pictures. Was roomy and cozy all at the same time. Very short walk to a nice beach that wasn't crowded. Our favorite part of the house was sunset on the rooftop patio, and the very private pool/patio in the backyard.

We really enjoyed this house, it was a bit pricier than we wanted to spend but in the end we felt it was worth it. We traveled with 2 adults and 2 teenage girls and everyone had plenty of room & we had an empty bedroom we used for luggage, it would comfortably sleep 6 (more if you use air mattresses, etc.). The house is stocked with almost everything you need (no blender - thankfully we brought ours for morning smoothies). We had an issue with the air conditioning, it was reported on a Sunday morning and fixed on Monday. Everything is pretty new in the home, it looks in person as advertised online. Multiple options for eating meals (3 deck areas plus the kitchen). This was impt as we cooked every meal and ate in due to COVID so we put the kitchen to the test. Some of the pans could use replacing but we made due. Plenty of silverware, coffee cups, etc. Tons of beach items in the garage that we used to supplement our items. Maps makes it hard to tell .. it's VERY close to the beach. 7 houses down our street, cross a road, take a small path out to beach, 5 minutes max. We walked back and forth for restroom & snacks instead of lugging everything out, close enough for that, and then went back nightly for the sunset.We used the pool & grill and pool table room a LOT. The pool table room is not air conditioned, that's really our only complaint and in the Florida summer heat that room got over 100 degrees. With the noise ordinance that made it hard to play late at night with the windows & doors open to try to cool. We did anyway tried to keep it down, no neighbors complained, we often played until after midnight.The master suite is amazing, sitting outside is so peaceful, our daughter did her morning yoga on the master balcony daily. Tiny downside - there is no master bathtub.If we can afford it we will definitely stay in this house again, would definitely recommend. Only last thing I'd mention is the stairs in the house - there are a lot and we had to disinvite our parents who would have mobility issues getting in and out of the home. We did notice several on the beach have elevators but this one did not. We were fine but it's worth mentioning as my mother has parkinson's and while she can walk fine without a walker, she could not do those stairs several times a day so we had to tell her she couldn't come and that was sad. Same for my dad.
