If you are looking to stay on the island side to avoid traffic, this is the place. With 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, this was perfect for our family of 4. The block and a half walk to the beach with provided cart and beach essentials was ideal for the day and the beach as well as sunset views each night. The space was very clean and felt like stepping into your own beachside oasis.

Great getaway.

This property was perfect for our spring break getaway. The rental was clean and comfortable. We loved the decor and the deck area under the house. Just a block to the beach and steps from Sharkeys restaurant. So quiet at night and no traffic noise at all. Lots of beach towels and chairs for our use. I would rent this again!

Fast perfekt mit sehr guter Lage

Hübsch eingerichtetes Ferienhaus (in der Mitte geteiltes Objekt mit zwei getrennten Appartements in Fussweite zum Strand, ca. 100m (die Uferstrasse ist zu überqueren), in dritter Reihe. Anna Maria Island ist sehr idyllisch, da auf der Insel keine Hochhäuser stehen (nicht erlaubt), insofern "Old Florida". Sarasota, Tampa oder St. Petersburg sind allerdings nicht "um die Ecke", man braucht ein Auto und muss Fahrzeiten einkalkulieren. Haus ist aauber und mit allem ausgestattet was man braucht. Für 2 Erwachsene / 2 Kinder perfekt geeignet. Hat sogar zwei Bäder. Für 4 Erwachsene gehts auch, aber Schlafzimmer 2 hat zwei getrennte recht kleine Betten, während in Schlafzimmer 1 ein King Size steht,

Beautiful, comfortable home!

Excellent rental with all the comforts of home provided. The house is beautifully decorated, updated and clean as could be. Every detail was thought of and we really appreciated that. The area below the house was the nicest hang out area we’ve ever seen. Very close to a beautiful beach too. This was our first visit to Anna Maria Island and we loved it. Highly recommend this rental and we hope to be back again!

Girls’ Trip

This property is fantastic! Five girls stayed quite comfortably here. The decor was beachy and beautiful. No amenities were missing, including mixer for margaritas, beach towels, beach tote, an amazing enclosed patio space perfect for a dance party! So clean and new—It was perfection. Would recommend in a flash—host was so prompt and friendly. And did I mention this cute and comfy place is a 5 min walk to a pristine beach with beautiful shells? So glad we picked this oerfect place. We will be back for sure!!!!!
