Beautiful views!

This property is wonderful. I love the fact that the sliding doors open all the way up so that the outside and beautiful views are part of the living space. We enjoy having the bedrooms and the living space are all on the same floor and we can walk directly outside without having any steps to climb up or down. Having only two bathrooms, made it a little more of a challenge, but it was worth it.

Roofing Project During Stay - Do not recommend

While our vacation started out enjoyable at this property, the property underwent a complete roofing replacement during our stay, resulting in the property being unusable for 48 hours. The owner was non-responsive (according to the property management company) and the property management company was lacking details to assist in an agreeable solution for us. I would not stay here again, or with this Property Management company again.

Dolphins and sunshine galore!

What a perfect spot! We traveled with our family of five including a 4 year old and two teenagers. Having the bay literally steps out the back door was a delight. Dolphins swam and played right in front of us every day and even though there wasn’t any real “beach” the patio/deck area with lounge chairs and hammock were perfect. The pool was fantastic as well we often spent the morning in the pool and the afternoon in the bay. We took a 4-hr boat trip to Egmont Key through Bradenton Mari a which was fantastic. Enjoyed ice cream at Two Scoops and a delicious Lunch at The Porch. We also got a steamer pot from Topsail one night which was a fun and delicious dinner! Being there for the 4th of July was perfect. We just sat on the back patio and could see fireworks across the bay all around. Management was very responsive to any question we had although being there 8 nights I did not recall seeing the pool being serviced during our stay and the information in the home said that would happen twice per week. I also spent some time sweeping off the patio area upon our arrival to make for a cleaner outdoor area (just leaves and pine needles that blow down throughout the day). Everything worked well, the home is nicely and comfortably decorated. The kitchen is well stocked so cooking at the home was easy - sharper chef’s knives would’ve been nice 😊 Perfect vacation spot!

Beautiful views, great pool, but…

My family had a wonderful stay at the Breakaway property in March. The location can’t be beat, with views that take your breath away. We absolutely loved being beachfront, as well as enjoyed the lovely pool area. That said, I feel like it’s important to call attention to a few things. While the home is beautiful, it could use a little extra love in the form of new paint and extra attention to some of the things that attracted my family to this home. My family had to call maintenance several times throughout our stay. This wasn’t ideal, but maintenance always responded quickly so we chose to look past the inconvenience and still have a wonderful time. For reference, the pool wasn’t heating the first day or two, so someone had to come out to fix that. The gas grill didn’t work, so someone had to come out and deliver a new one. The TV didn’t work, so someone had to come out and fix that (somehow the wrong remotes had ended up in the house from a different property…) The dishwasher also leaked onto the floor a bit, though we chose not to report this to maintenance because we were tired of having to call and have someone come to the house every day. In the end, the hiccups we encountered with the house were minor enough and the response swift enough to not detract from our overall stay. However, the things that we had issues with are important items to have in a vacay rental and things that drew us to the house in the first place (heated pool, grill), so it was disappointing they weren’t in tip-top shape and that we had to put effort into getting those amenities working. We’d definitely return to Anna Maria Island, but the jury is still out on whether we’d rent this same property in the future.

We have stayed at this same property several times in the past ten years. Our entire family loves it! The sunrise and bay views with water access steps from the house (great for kayaking and paddle boarding), the pool and then gulf waves and sunset just a few minutes away. We like the slower pace of the northern island location. Many wonderful memories are made and remembered each time. The down side is that the beds are not great. Their ok for younger children but only a roll up foam boxed “mattress” is not adequate for a good nights sleep for adults who’ve been on the water all day and are exhausted. Six of the eight of have neck and pain back from the beds. Disappointing for sure. Otherwise, an absolutely great home with what we think is the best locale on the island.

The location was fantastic—close to dolphins, manatees, and beautiful blue herons. We really enjoyed the pool, and even had a curious baby raccoon visit us a few times, which made for some fun memories.However, we did experience a few issues during our stay. The air conditioning went out for three days, and while the host did respond by providing two portable AC units and box fans, they weren’t enough to cool the house adequately—our bedroom remained around 89 degrees, which made sleeping difficult. We had hoped the issue would have been resolved more quickly.The mattress in the main bedroom was also very worn and deeply imprinted, making it uncomfortable and quite warm throughout the night.Lastly, one of the highlights we were excited about—the close proximity to the Rod and Reel Pier—was unfortunately misleading. The pier had been destroyed in the last hurricane and was no longer there when we arrived.Overall, the location has a lot of potential, but a few updates and clearer communication would greatly improve the experience.

Nice place but description needs updated.

We enjoyed the property and the communication was very good. There was a problem with the A/C but they had someone out quickly. Overall it was a good experience. We were disappointed that the listing was not accurate. I let them know about it while we were there, but it still has not been updated like they said they would do. The third bedroom shows "two twins" but there is actually one queen bed in there. The fourth bedroom shows a "twin bunk and full bed" but there are actually 2 sets of bunk beds in there. We rented based on the configuration shown but were able to manage sleeping arrangements once we got there. It wasn't ideal but it didn't ruin our trip. It would be nice if they would correct the listing though.

I visited with 9 other friends. The place was excellent but the sleeping arrangements were snug for 10. The couch was a great option for sleeping which helped. Beautiful view of the bay! Lots of light and on a very quiet street. We walked the beach from the back porch. Would recommend to anyone wanting a quiet weekend away.

This was our 4th trip to AMI over last 5 years and every time we have chosen a different home, we’ll next year we’re staying here again. Between the open format between kitchen and living room, the wall to wall glass which provides unbelievable views and being literally steps away from the water- staying anywhere else would just be silly!!!!

"Great but needs a few things"

We had a wonderful, relaxing week at Breakaway! However we did have to get repair men in twice. Once for the garbage disposal which did get fixed. Then we realized the dishwasher leaked a lot. It is supposed to be getting replaced. Also the bottom corner kitchen cabinet is falling apart. We never had really hot water in the kitchen. We we would have liked since we washed all the dishes since the dishwasher leaked. Extra blankets would be nice to have also.

View and location great. The house, ok.

Sorry to write this review, but we were not entirely happy with this home. The house was clean upon our arrival, check was not on time (even at 4pm), many repairs are needed, even though maintenance already knew about them, but hadn't gotten to it. Bedrooms tv did not work, toilets were constantly running, pool was NOT heated passed the first day (FLO error), dishwasher did not work, dishes were not clean, pans were filthy, refrigerator light didn't work, pillows were disgusting (yellow in color). Would have been a wonderful accommodation if these items were taken care of. Location and view from the property was outstanding and beds were comfortable. Hope the owners are made aware so they can make repairs and expect more from the company they are paying to manage their property.
