About the host
Hosted by Carolyn Hodgson
From Minnesota, and well traveled, we wanted to create a personal experience where luxury and comfort came first. If you have rented in Anna Maria before, you know it is a nightmare to rent from one of the big property management companies (AMI Locals, etc.) They are owned by one person who has a monopoly started and is rumored to not provide great service (look them up on Yelp.) We, the owners of this home are the ones managing it. That makes a significant difference in the type of service you receive. Read our reviews, they tell it the best. I personally answer your requests and there is no one with a greater incentive than the owner to make sure our guests are thrilled.
This home has everything you could want or need for. Including children's pack and play, high chair, booster, and Jumper. Beach towels, blankets, chairs, chaise loungers, coolers, umbrella's, canopy's, golf carts, you just bring the sunscreen and your swimming suit!

Why they chose this property
This home has water views from everywhere. Across the street from Tampa Bay and the Skyway Bridge, use binoculars provided and watch the cruise ships and ocean freighters go by heading to Tampa Port. At night watch storms and lightening come across the bay - its beautiful and thrilling!
The second level on the front of the home has a porch that is covered, and has new composite plus 3 sectional beautiful sets of furniture to enjoy watching the sunsets and wildlife bird watching and sea life.
The Free Standing Tiki Bar lights up with neon at night, the pool and the water in the canal does too! New vinyl fence has lights surrounding it and LED lighting is in the Feeney steel cable railings surrounding the porch!
