We truly enjoyed our stay at your unit and only the impending birth of our grand daughter kept us from requesting another week. You did a great job with the decorating and furnishing, exactly as advertised. We loved AMI and the Sarasota area and hope to return soon. I will definitely keep Gulf View in mind. J & J Boston, Ma

I have stayed in this condo for the past 5 years - every August - and it is always clean and comfortable. I love waking up in the morning to the sound of the Gulf waves lapping the shore and the bird crys...I visit with my sister every year and we hate to leave and can't wait to get back! There is lots to do but nothing to do at the same time! I recommend this condo and Anna Maria Island to my friends and clients....Eat Here is a fabulous new restaurant to check out..owned by the Beach Bistro..the food is AMAZING!!! The condo is within walking distance to so much and the trolley stops right outside the building! Counting the days until I am back :) Enjoy!!

Gulf View is the perfect place to stay when you visit Anna Maria Island! Could not ask for a better location. Within walking distance of everything you might need. Bridge Street has neat little shops, the pier at its end, and Segs by the Sea! Do take a Segway tour with Jeff, it is so much fun and you get to go over the bridge to Longboat Key! I figured I would need either a doctor or a glass of wine by the time we got back...fortunately, the wine sufficed! Visit Duffy's on the North end for the best hamburger and cold beer! Go over the Cortez Bridge to 119th and eat at Cortez Kitchen for the freshest seafood around! We discovered it due to taking a water taxi tour with Capt. Mark...fun!! Rick & Nancy have a lovely, spacious condo! They have provided all the amenities of home in a warm, welcoming atmosphere! Can't wait to visit again! Thank you so much!!!!

Thank you so much for the use of your beautiful condo. The location was perfect and it was everything we wanted in a vacation and more. You sure wouldn't need a car staying at this property. There are plenty of restaurants and things to do right around the condo. It was a great time and the condo was very clean and well kept. The area is bustling during the day but it was quiet during the night which was nice. The beds were extremely comfortable compared to other places where I have stayed. The view from the balcony is breathtaking and the sunsets were gorgeous. Thanks again and we plan on coming back next year.

We had a great time at this property. Property was clean and nicely decorated. It is in the heart of Bradenton beach, only a block from Bridge Street, and the beach is at the front door. Free trolley that covers entire Anna Maria island at the front door also.

We really enjoyed our stay at this condo the last week of October 2010. The weather was perfect and the water in the Gulf was still warm. We spent a lot of time on the private beach. It was very quiet and relaxing. There are a lot of nice restaurants within walking distance. The condo is really comfortable and the location is great – right on the beach with a waterfront view on the famous Anna Maria Island. This is our 4th stay on the Anna Maria Island and our 2nd stay in this wonderful condo. Thank you, Rick and Nancy!

We have just returned from our stay at this fantastic condo. This was our third visit to Anna Maria and this condo was by far the best we have stayed in. As soon as we walked through the door it felt like home and Rick and Nancy have done a fantastic job of making it absolutely perfect. It's in an ideal location, everything is within walking distance and the view from the balcony is awesome. We had breakfast on the balcony while watching the dolphins swimming by - what else could be more perfect. We can highly recommend it to everyone and hopefully we will be returning next year.

We have just completed our THIRD stay at Ocean View---we love the condo and always find it clean and well supplied--everything seems to work properly including the Wireless Internet-- The location is right on the Gulf with a beautiful view which is where I want to be when I come to the beach. I enjoy making pictures of the sunsets and the scenery ...got one of a double rainbow over the water this time! There are many restaurants within walking distance. One of our favorites is the Island Creperie, a small French place, located on Bridge Street right around the corner from the condo--we've enjoyed breakfast, lunch and dinner there. We also like City Pier Restaurant, Rod and Reel Restaurant, Skinny's Place and The Sign of the Mermaid..food was wonderful there! Rick C. has always been most helpful to me, answering my many questions, when making my reservations by email. Our Chihuahua is always welcome too! We hope to return in the Spring for our fourth visit if we can work it out---great place!

We had a wonderful time at the Gulf View condo. Everything was so convenient. We enjoyed walking to Rotten Ralph's Restaurant and walked on the dock each evening to watch the people fish. We ate at Olma's Pizza and the Sun Restaurant. The view from the condo was beautiful, watching the awesome sunsets. One evening there was a storm and lightning over the water and that was beautiful to watch. We saw dolphins and walked the beach in the early mornings and swam in the pool in the afternoon and walked to a restaurant in the evening and tried to be back in time to watch the sunset from the balcony at the condo. The condo is beautifully furnished and decorated and very comfortable. It was hard to leave. Time went too fast. We hope to go back again!

We absolutely loved everything about our stay at your wonderful beachfront condo. The sand and surf were incredible. We walked over to Bridge Street and went fishing on the Pier then ate lunch at Rotten Ralphs. On our way back to the condo we checked out all the interesting shops. Lots of good stuff to see and do for just about anyone is well within walking distance. We were able to watch the 4th of July parade just by walking out the front door. The fireworks display that night was viewable from the condos balcony and it was fantastic. The condo is well supplied so that cooking meals is no problem. All in all... We had a great time on our stay and will definitely be returning. Thanks for everything!
