I tried to give you a five star across the board but the website wouldn’t let! We were very impressed with the home the hostess the pool area and how clean the house was.Definitely book again if we are ever in the area on vacation again. Thank you for sharing your home it’s beautiful!!!
We had an awesome stay!! Will definitely stay again!! Was nice they have a starter bag with trash bags, dish pods, dish soap, hand soap, paper towels, TP, and even laundry soap… very close , 5 mins to awesome restaurants and shopping…beds were comfy!
Great location to AMI, about a 10 minute drive without traffic. Quiet little area that you can take a morning or evening walk through. House was very clean and well stocked, never needed to refill any cleaning supplies. Beach items were very much appreciated! Pool and dock were great. My family spent a lot of time fishing. Communication was great. Overall, great stay.
Had a great long weekend stay. Close to Anna Marie island which we enjoyed a few days. Pool was fun for hanging out. Kitchen well equipped. Bring ground coffee if you are a coffee drinker!
Things I liked: Place was super cleanGood fishing and wildlife scenery right off the dock ( we saw manatees, dolphins, and stingrays) Close to nice beaches Basic supplies were included in rental ( trash bags , coffee filters, dishwasher tabs, towels, laundry soap , dish soap, and a welcome bag full of goodiesComfortable and clean beds Beach Chairs provided Propane provided for grill and fire pit Thing's I disliked :*Flat pillows *No net for pool to clean out daily *Garage door not operating properly Overall, I would give this place a 10/10. Will definitely look at other properties in that area for next summer !
We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful house, it is all fully renovated, confortable and very clean.We look forward to stay again next year during the summer time
Our family absolutely loved our stay. The home is beautiful, with neat landscaping all the amenities you'd want and perfect warer access by boat to ami. We would definitely book here again! Highly recommended!
We had the best week! From the moment we walked in, the view of the pool and beyond was breathtaking! The property provided us with everything we needed for a relaxing week of fun in the sun while also being close to the beach and restaurants on AMI.
This house was beautiful. It was comfortable. The floor plan was excellent for our needs. The Lanai was fantastic to sit and have coffee. I would rent this place again for sure.
Minute we open front door you saw a 9’ patio door and pool and canal ,it was awesome. The house was super clean , And a goodie bag to start our vacation. Would definitely book again
Our stay at the Blue Opal property was great! The listing was very accurate and the property team were very responsive and helpful with the couple of small issues we encoutered. We would definitely rent with this team again.
We absolutely loved this house. It had everything we needed. We had our 4 kids with. We saw manatees and dolphins down the canal while kayaking. Beds were comfortable, pool was clean, plenty of cooking supplies and dinnerware. Pool was very clean. Location is great. We'd go back to this house for sure.
We enjoyed our stay! It was a perfect location to be off the beaten path in a quiet neighborhood but yet, only minutes from the beach and activities! Our kids enjoyed hours in the pool before and after our daily travels! It's so great to be able to do some laundry and make some of your own meals. We had everything we needed in a home away from home for the week.
It would be nice to have loungers by the pool to relax a bit more in and better fitting sheets on the beds as they often popped off but other than that, we ranked this a great family vacation stay for all of us!
We had a great time on our vacation. Everything was beautiful in the home and had everything we needed and then some. We did have an issue with the AC motor breaking, but we contacted the property manager, Alex, and he was coming over to check it and had someone there within the hour to get it fixed. The dock just steps away from the porch was awesome and easy to get our 22ft boat in and out. We enjoyed staying here! We would definitely stay here again!
The house is wonderful. It is so well equipped with everything you would need including fast WIFI and smart TV with cable. Pool and lanai area is blissful, it’s so quiet and peaceful with a relaxing setting. Hosts did everything we could have possibly asked for before and during our stay, especially making sure the equipment we needed for our 1year old was in top condition. We will definitely be returning next year, thank you!!
We enjoyed our stay and the heated pool. Few minutes to the beach and lots of restaurants. The house was very clean and well stocked including pool and beach toys for the kiddos and beach towels. Management brought us a high chair and pack n play and walker. 5 stars!
It was hard to leave. Everything about the place, every detail was thought of with convenience and care in mind. The neighborhood was very friendly (dogs everywhere) ! Fishing steps from the back porch. I could go on...You'll have to find out for yourself.
