What you need to know. 1) fantastic location, strategic to food and beach. 2) pool is just right for a family, not huge but not as small as the pics appear. 3) clean! 4) property POCs are on the ball, responsive. 5) the views from the 3rd level are unmatched, similar to ocean front without the huge cost. 6) beds and showeres are all comfortable and again clean. Our family would stay here again.

A fabulous family reunion!

Harvey's home was absolutely incredible! From the location (literally right across the beach!) to the amenities, our week flew by and we didn't want to leave! We hadn't seen our family since December 2019 and I couldn't think of a better place for all of us to be together. We want to go back to Harvey's house every year!

Amazing place on an amazing Island

This is a real gem for Anna Maria. Not only is it steps away from the beach, it’s steps away from Publix and supplies. No need to “stock up” for the week and wait in traffic to go anywhere. Definitely going back!

Perfect location, Well Appointed

Best beach access away from the crowd! Literally just across the street from the house. Also a short walk to Publix which was awesome. Great beach views from balconies. The house was well appointed and had everything we needed inside and out from beach towels to beach cart which made trucking chairs and toys so easy.

Amazing stay

After figuring out the layout of the house it was great that we all had our own space. The master suite was awesome but the shower in master bath was AMAZING!! We loved all the balconies. The view from the top floor was great as well. It was a short walk to the beach & the garage had all our beach needs. It was nice to come back to the pool after the beach. We would definitely rent again!!

Great location. Great house! We were hot the entire week because of controlled air conditioner-This would be out biggest complaint- to pay this much and not be comfortable- with threats of charging more money-

Dana, We do apologize for the inconvenience, but no one contacted us about any AC problems. I looked into the history and the records indicate that the entry level pool door was left open nearly every day from around 11 a.m to 5 or 6 pm. during your stay This would certainly account for the issue you report, but little can be done when a guest pushes the equipment to its limits during 90 degree weather. Additional charges are rarely ever made, but are noted in the contract for exactly this type of abuse to the system. A phone call would have avoided your problem, but the pool access door would have to have been corrected as well. Harvey King

Great Home

The house was beautiful! Looks just as pictured. The beds were very comfortable. The amenities were as described. We loved relaxing by the pool. We range in age from 87-22 and we all loved it. According to my mother “she has stayed in many beach houses in her 87 years and this was by far the best”. The beach is about 100 yards away. Harvey was attentive and patient with my many questions before and during our stay. We all agreed we would stay there again.
