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

Great house and amazingly stocked!

Loved using the paddle boards, sea kayak, beach chairs/umbrellas, golf cart, and even beach towels. It was a nice treat not to worry about buying or renting any of those items, as we flew on this vacation.

We love the house and location. However, they just changed over to a company to manage the property called Wander and they were terrible. We spent most of the trip dealing with repairs. One being the dryer, and it was never fixed. We had wet stinky clothes to bring home and wash.

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.

Spectacular

Absolutely best AMI location. Right on the beach and steps from miles of the best walking beach I’ve encountered. We did not want to leave this home with its 180 degree view out the wall of windows. Just imagine waking each morning to pelicans soaring and diving. It’s an exquisite natural wonderland. We enjoyed making meals in the well equipped kitchen and found the beds to be super comfy. The owners were completely available for any and all assistance. This was a great place for us to relax and recoup after Christmas. All six of us give this home a 10!!

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.

Water side house

Everything was beautiful, the house was as we expected, very well stocked kitchen ! the communication with the property manager was fantastic! Beautiful views from the porch . the only drawback was that there is a public access point on one side of the house and an empty lot on the other side so there was a lot of public traffic - people walking very close to the house, swimming and fishing right below you and vehicle parking in the empty lot

Great time

went here on spring break with another family. 10 of us total. 6 kids, 4 adults. we all had an amazing time. the back of this property is not necessarily a beach that you would want to take little kids. but we had a couple of calm days and used the stand up paddle boards, etc. the beach was a quick golf cart ride away. it was just a magical trip. and rick and his wife were very helpful and wonderful hosts! couldnt recommend this place more!

AMI vacation

The house was great and a perfect setup for our family. Very well kept. They even had some kid safety features like built in “gates” at each of the stairs. We thought we would use the deck a lot more but it was very windy on the bay side the entire time we were there. The property by the water was covered in roots from a tree that had been partially removed. My wife and I spent the first hour cleaning up the sand so that we could put some chairs out there. Also not easy access to the water due to all the rocks. Great views though out of the living room. All in all we enjoyed the house and our time on the island.

Great Property, View and Location to Town

This property and the owner/managers we communicated with were excellent. Be aware there is no direct beach access, but you do have a small sand beach area private to the house. Access to the beach is a short drive away. The listing states a golf cart is included, but note that this is dependent on length of stay and isn’t a given. As of writing this, you wouldn’t know differentlg, and I ended Up getting stuck with 500 in rental fees for a golf cart. I booked Because of all of the amenities for two nights before heading to Disney with the family. The management comp’d only 100 per day of the cart. Other than that, the house was amazing, the setup is beautiful, beds are comfortable, great shower pressure and amenities. Kitchen was awesome. Games, if you like them are by the Washer and Dryer, which both came in handy for us. You can try your hand at fishing, but it’s a little rocky. A bit of construction is going on right now around the house, but was never a bother to us at all. I’d say other than the cart, this house was a great grab for a quick two nights!
