Short and sweet—we love it, Karin! So glad Southern Breeze 1 by Anna Maria Vacations was a smooth, no-issues stay for you. Come back anytime for more easy island time!
If you're looking for the necessities to get on the north side of the island, this was a very affordable option and nice two bedroom apartment style condo. Steps from the heated pool and just 2.5 blocks from the Gulf. Lovely location. Bed was surprisingly one of the most comfortable I've slept in.Things to know: no laundry, and no chairs or anything you can take to the beach. Host was responsive. Enjoyed the stay.

It’s wonderful that you had a great time by the pool and appreciated the proximity to the beach and shops. We hope to welcome you back for another fantastic stay soon!
Very clean and excellent area. Good response from host. Only thing I would suggest is to tape down the corner of the carpet under the coffee table. The corner closest to the fridge. Tripped on it several times until I put something on it to remind us it was sticking up.

Thank you for your feedback, Carol! We’re glad you enjoyed the clean home, great location, and smooth communication with our team. We do apologize for the minor issues, we will go over this with our team. We’d love to welcome you back with Anna Maria Vacations anytime!
Cute and well maintained. Couch doesn’t pull out so not sure how they get that it sleeps 6 but 4 fit comfortably. We were a family of 5, brought an air mattress because I thought to ask about the couch so it was fine. Great location, that’s the highlight of this property.
This property is perfect for a romantic getaway. The neighborhood is quiet and we’ll established. Locals Only vibe. We loved that it’s on the North Shore, away from all the touristy stuff and all the traffic.

Parri, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are glad you enjoyed the home and quiet location. We hope to host you again sometime soon!
As a family of five I was worried it might feel small, but it was even bigger than it seemed in pictures! The sectional was great and we could all share at one time. Such a quiet spot with comfortable beds. The location can’t be beat. This is a must book , especially since it is such a great price! We will definitely be back!

Good value on AMI
Good value. Never found a broom/dustpan or vacuum? Bathroom door needed adjusting - we were able to fix 🙂

Beth,
Thank you for leaving us a review! We are glad you were able to stay with us, and we will forward on your suggestions to management!
They didn't provide me with a door code to even get into the place. So I ended having to sleep in my car for the first night. I was told that management would reach out to me the following Monday but they didn't even try to make anything right. So I had to call them and then they tried to refund me $150 which is less than half what I ended up paying per night. They also wanted me to sign an agreement stating I wouldn't leave a bad review about what happened to me and my wife. You would think that they would refund me for the entire day since they didn't give me a door code to get into the place until after 1am. Also there is no Wi-Fi there either. There is a router to connect to but it doesn't do any good because there is no internet which is important considering you will NOT get signal there. The management of this property is absolutely terrible and I recommend going somewhere else if you want to do you and your family favor there is many other properties to pick from on Anna Maria Island.
Read a lot of reviews about the check in process being a challenge, but it wasn’t at all! They must have fixed whatever it was. We had everything we needed and communication was great when we had questions. Shops and restaurants are a little spread out on AMI so idk if there’s a perfect location on the island no matter where you stay, but it was a nice, fairly short walk to the beach.

Alex, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay, and we hope to host you again soon!
We truly loved our stay in Anna Maria Island. The property was clean and spacious. It had all the basics. We loved this part of AMI. It’s more private yet still close to the beach access areas and piers. It was a 1/2 mile walk to the beach (about 15 minutes) so keep that in mind when renting to ensure your party can handle the walk with all the beach gear in tow. We recommend a buggy/cart. We will definitely be back to visit! Thank you!
It was perfect for what we needed it for. We were in town for a wedding. It was cute and cozy. The only issue I had was the bed. It makes alot of noise even if you weren't doing anything exciting on it. Very loud and not comfortable. It may be time for an upgrade. I was happy our kids were not with us.

Thank you for taking your time to leave a review. We are glad that you enjoyed your time with us. We look forward to assisting you on your next vacation to Anna Maria Island.
Anna Maria Island is amazing and the location was great. Right near Rod and Reel and quick access to both the bay and gulf side beaches. The place was a little dirty when we arrived (some hair in the bathroom) which was disappointing. The property is clearly outdated and could do with some upgrades but was comfortable and we enjoyed the pool while we were there. One thing I wish we had been warned about was the sprinkler system - it uses gray water so I wish I had known when they were scheduled to turn on so I could have moved our bikes and bike trailer, which got soaked.

Thank you for your review of your stay at Southern Breeze 1. We appreciate you letting us know about the cleaning issue and will use this information in the future to insure we offer a clean and safe home to each of our guests. As part of the conservation on Anna Maria Island we do use reclaimed water in the sprinkler system. We applogize for any issue this may have caused you. We are thrilled that you enjoyed the pool and the comfort of this private home. We look forward to your next visit to Anna Maria Island.
Perfect location , walkable to Bean Point and Rod n Reel Pier. Loved having a laundry room and supplied towels so we didn't have to pack a lot. Pool was cleaned daily, has an outdoor shower and pool toys kids loved, a plus having it right outside our door. Only recommendation is to consider updating mattresses and have an outdoor outlet for golf cart charging, otherwise we can't complain!

Jamie, thank you for letting us know about your stay at Southern Breeze #1. We are so happy that you enjoyed your time on the island and hope that we will be able to welcome you back in the near future!
AMI was beautiful and this was in a great location and quiet. The rental wasn't anything special but worked for what we needed it for being booked last minute (to sleep) would highly suggest an updated bed though(not the most comfortable). We had family staying on the island so we spent most of our time at their rental and the beach.

Katie, thank you for your review of Southern Breeze #1. We agree that it is in a great, quiet location on the north end of the island. It is one of our more "budget-friendly" accommodations, but we have a large number of repeat guests that come here year after year. All of the beds were replaced about a year ago ~ bed comfort is very subjective and what one person likes another may think isn't comfortable ~ the Goldilocks effect. I'm sorry that this one wasn't "just right" for you!
