2/1 Cottage Steps to Beach w/Great Pool Just Steps to Beach

Property needs a lot of attention

The place was dirty there was used soap and hair in the bathroom a cockroach dirty smelly linen left in the washer and dryer the pool area needs repair on tarp also landscaping is overgrown the whole place needs serious upgrades old TVs etc

We loved the location and the bungalow. It does need some maintenance as I have asthma and a/c makes it much worse so we had to switch it off most of the time but unfortunately nearly all the windows were broken so we couldn't open them at all which meant we needed to have both doors open when we were home during the day and a/c on when we were out.

Our main piece of feedback was the pool, it was lovely but was more like a public pool than a shared one. We expected to share with another family but there seemed to be so many people coming and going we felt as though we couldn't really enjoy it. First few days were a large group of adults who were in the pool most of the time, then a couple with eight kids and boyfriends who also filled the the pool much of the time and then the owners came which we were relieved to see but they also have so many people coming and going and using the pool we felt as if we couldn't use it when we wanted to which was often after we got back from the beach in the late afternoon.

We were out and about a lot so it wasn't as if we were expecting to have the pool to ourselves all of the time but we were disappointed with that aspect of our holiday.

Love Ana Maria Island and would have booked to come back here next year with our family but think we will look for somewhere with its own pool next time.

Would definitely recommend. Hope to be back next year.

My husband and I had an amazing stay at the cottage! We had a friends wedding at the Sandbar and couldn't have asked to stay anywhere more convenient. We parked the car on Friday and didn't need to get back in it until we checked out-everything you could need is within walking distance! The cottage had everything we needed and the heated pool and tranquil back patio was amazing! We're already planning a trip back with our boys!
