Great stay. Definitely a more relaxing and quieter vibe off Pine and on the north end of the island. Apartment was well fitted with what you need. Complex is quiet and comfortable. Bring extra toiletries, might be needed.

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful weekend stay. The apartment is in such a great location in Anna Maria with many places to eat and shop within walking distance. The home was pristine and had everything we needed. The bed was like sleeping on a cloud. We loved how close the beaches were. The closest one was perfect for paddle boarding and we were able to put our boards in right behind the apartment. The other beach wasn’t far at all and is a short bike ride and even shorter car ride away. Our host was quick to respond to any questions. We loved our visit and can’t wait to come back!

Kitchen was stocked with all utensils. Property had travel cleaning products and bathroom toiletries as well. Right on Pine Ave, and very walkable to shops/restaurants. Also directly in front of a trolley stop which is very helpful. Would most definitely stay here again, and highly recommend!

Perfect for our group of 4. We had a great time and enjoyed sitting on dock on canal- saw four manatees go by during our stay. Great location for pine street shopping and dining. Only suggestion would be to have some backpack beach chairs. (We were late to the game and rentals were sold out). Host was very responsive and communicated well during whole process.
