  My cousin and I stayed at your lovely home beginning the last Saturday in April for one week and it was truly a relaxing and wonderful time! We have rented homes on Jacaranda in the past and the location of your home in proximity to the beach is perfect. The pictures on this site are very accurate - large bedrooms are well appointed. We made all our meals in your well-stocked kitchen and utilized your grill as well. The back yard is a most peaceful place and made for an easy transition after a long day at the beach! Wonderful neighborhood to take early-morning walks or post-sunset walks. Great shops and restaurants are all a short drive away. Hope to stay again soon!

  Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

  We enjoyed the stay at your house very much. The pool is fantastic and very special with the "waterfall" Our little son (2 1/2 year old) wanted to stay there inside all the time. He also was the one that discovered the toys for the children outside, he liked the truck very much! We felt here like home, your house is beautifully decorated and the colors are warm and friendly. We hope to come back sometime. You have a wonderful little paradise here at Anna Maria! Thank you!

  "Our Place by the Sea" is a real gem. We found our stay to be comfortable and relaxing, the perfect house for a family. We appreciated your attention to detail in everything that was offered, especially the toys and blankets for young children. This was our second trip to Anna Maria and will return again sometime soon.

  Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us. Everything was spectacular. The house is great-very comfortable and fully stocked. We loved quiet Anna Maria. The weather was great and the beach very quiet. We hope to be back!

  We were thrilled with the house, it's lovely! The kids really enjoyed the pool and have left 2 body boards for other visitors. We have been numerous times in the past to Anna Maria Island but never this far north. It was good to discover fishing off the pier. We also took a boat out and deep-sea fished. Ralph & Beth on the beach at Cortez were great at organizing that. We caught a small shark and a 130 lb Tarpin - rare for this time of the year, but we have the photos to prove it! Thank you very much. I hope all future rentals are as successful as ours!

  We had a fantastic time here celebrating my dad's 60th birthday. The house was perfect for a family-lots of things to do and lots of different areas. The pool is fantastic! Really like the sound of the waterfall. I like the close each access but we also discovered the Bean Point access off the end of one of the roads closer to the bay side. It is like a forest back there and several parrots actually answered the sounds of our bike horns! Fun! Anyway-thanks-planning to return in December!

  Mum, Jude & I were the luckiest. We got to start our vacation before the rest of our family arrived. That gave us plenty of time to enjoy the house and pool -- especailly for Jude and his Grandma! We did worry that returning back to Anna Maria may not live up to our expectations. We shouldn't have worried! Everything was perfect and we are now totally sold on this end of the island - including your home. Some of the specifics that we want to mention are: -Kitchen was very well stocked -Pool & garden area is fabulous. Well designed and very well furnished. -TVs and cable was so helpful when our active 3year old needed some quiet time. -The location to the beach and the Sandbar Restaurant was perfect! We truly hope to return.

  We first visited Anna Maria Island in2003. We fell in love with the island and t his ear, we decided to return for a much needed family holiday. We looked at lots of properties and we finally decided on "Our Place by the Sea". The house totally exceeded all our expectations!!!! We were very excited about returning to Anna Maria and when we arrived here, we felt so very at home. The house is very thoughtfully and beautifully decorated and the little details truly made a difference to our visit. Thank you so much for creating a relaxing, well stocked house, for us to enjoy. We take home many wonderful memories and the desire to return again soon.

  We look forward to visiting Our Place by the Sea because we know that whatever the owners do, they do First Class. We know that when we do visit, we will then call it OUR Place by the Sea....a place to truly relax and enjoy nature--especially the sunsets on the beach--,each other, family and friends and the amenities of the island. In fact, we think that Jimmy Buffet should write a song about Our Place by the Sea. Eve and Millard Carr Travel Writers
