The house was beautiful and clean. We loved watching the dolphins out the main window. We also really enjoyed the golf cart and the elevator. I was a little disappointed that there is no longer beach past the retention wall due to erosion. Would definitely rent again.

The elevator was broken after our first day. I am disabled so the elevator was very important. This home has 24 steps. I was staying with my daughters so we had quite a bit of luggage that we would have had to try to get down the steps besides trying to figure out getting me down. When the hosts were contacted they eventually said the elevator company couldn’t get there till Monday. We were leaving Sunday so that didn’t help. We then contacted VRBO who then apparently contacted the hosts and there was an elevator repair person at 8:00am the following morning. We spent a lot of our time texting or emailing about the problem. The night the elevator broke we had planned to go to dinner but we had to stay in. My daughters went and got food.Before we had this issue I was thinking of bringing my husband because the view and location were amazing. We won’t come back. My daughters wouldn’t use the elevator after it was fixed because they were afraid it might break again.

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry your stay was disrupted, and we understand how important elevator access was for your group. To be clear about what happened: the elevator stopped working because a member of your party opened the interior door while it was between floors. That triggers the elevator's safety lock, and only a certified technician can reset it. Your group told us at the time that this is what happened. This was not a mechanical failure or a maintenance issue with the home. Even so, our team came to the property right away to try to reset it. When it couldn't be reset on site, we arranged for an emergency technician, and the elevator was repaired the next morning. While we waited, we also offered to help your group with the stairs and luggage, and you declined. The elevator is professionally maintained and was fully safe to use once it was reset. We remind all guests to keep the interior door closed until the elevator reaches its floor. We're glad you enjoyed the view and location.

As perfect as it looks

We’ve stayed in a lot of rentals homes with our four children - this is one of the best ever. Very clean, thoughtfully stocked and well equipped. The use of the beach toys and the golf cart were an added bonus. Check in/out couldn’t be easier and management was very responsive.

Girls Weekend Was AMAZING!!!

We visited this BEAUTIFUL property for a girls bachelorette weekend (there were 9 of us) this property could not have been any more perfect! The porch swing, and breathtaking views is what sold us on the property initially but the amazing experience we had will be what brings us back time and time again.

Beautiful Place on Anna Maria

We absolutely loved Serendipity 1 on Anna Maria Island. My family had a wonderful stay overall. The home is lovely, the location is fantastic with beautiful views. We saw dolphins and manatee daily swim by from our balcony. We even watched some dolphins jumping out of the water! The hosts were very accommodating and communicated with us the entire time. If we needed something, it was provided. We would definitely stay here again in the future.

Great Getaway

Amazing!! We were so pleased with Serendipity! Super clean. It had everything we needed. The beds were so comfortable! It’s located in a very nice neighborhood near shopping and restaurants. Bean Point Beach is just steps away. The view from the porch is tremendous. We loved every minute at Serendipity. We were sad to leave.

I have to say this was an amazing property and a small perfect piece of paradise in between hectic stays at universal and Disney. The location right on the beach at bean point was perfect. We spent all our time watching the sea, spotting wildlife and relaxing, we didn’t want to leave and hope to revisit one day. Communication was great and friendly, house was beautiful - clean, luxurious, well stocked kitchen and all the beach/sea kit you could need and more. Just a word of caution for the sea, the currents and warnings are very real but this won’t spoil your stay in the slightest if you are sensible and don’t go beyond standing height if swimming in the sea. Get the golf buggy it was great fun! Thankyou for such a wonderful stay. Ruth, Matt and 3 happy kids xx

Thank you for your honest feedback. We're truly sorry that your stay was impacted by maintenance issues and a lack of support. We did try transitioning to a new management company, but based on valuable guest feedback like yours, we quickly made the decision to return to Serendipity Management. Our goal has always been to provide personal, responsive care, and we deeply regret that wasn’t your experience this time. We truly love this home and its incredible location, and we hope you’ll give us another opportunity to deliver the quality stay you deserve.

Oh c'mon now. Where to begin! We travel through beautiful Anna Maria Island to our stunning vacation rental in our Mustang convertible rented in Michigan. Out front is a sign celebrating my wife's surprise 70th birthday. (The gracious hosts decorated the home with 70th birthday decorations I sent them). We enter the fully equipped garage and enter the home. The perfect serene music is playing on the entertainment center which is displaying a burning fireplace. An inviting, subtle scent welcomes you to the absolutely stunning view out of the row of wall to wall windows. This home was immaculate! Every need was anticipated. The golf cart was a blast.
