For the money, this was an excellent place to stay. Very clean and comfortable. Nice relaxing porch and very convenient to all the places you need to go! Love looking for the fish in the water as we came and went. Will definitely return. Just watch that Florida sun, it’s hotter than you think. Got to see dolphins and manatees while on the beach!

The place is nice in many respects and not so nice in others. The bedrooms are very nice, the beds and pillows are comfortable. The sunroom is so comfortable with rocking chairs to relax in. The kitchen is nice but the pans to use in the oven were terrible old and dirty. The towels and washcloths situation, was totally not happy with but the host satisfied that situation the nest morning. The pool is well maintained and wonderful to use. My sister and I had no car but the location of this apartment was perfect to get everything we wanted by walking. Groceries, lunch,dinner and shopping just across the street. Free trolley every 30 or so minutes if you wanted to get a ride. All in all, a few adjustments in the apartment and you have a pleasant stay waiting for the next traveler. I would return there.

Spring Break Success

The condo at Sandy Pointe was perfect for our needs. Three of us stayed in the condo and it had everything we needed. We especially liked using all the beach equipment. The location is great, centralized, walking distance to everything.

Condo was clean and well appointed. The pool was great! Short walk to the beach. Great meals at Kiwi Fish and Chips and Taco Tuesday at Los Chiludos, both just across the Main Street.

Nice and clean condo with most supplies included to prepare meals and wash laundry. Very convenient to have all the beach supplies downstairs, along with a cart to carry them. Close to shops and grocery store within walking distance. A minor problem was handled quickly.

Very nice place

The three of us ladies enjoyed our stay in Casa Gucci. We had a bit of trouble finding it because it’s behind 3705 Sunbow Bay and not intuitive when first arriving. It was updated, clean and well appointed although we only ate breakfast and lunch there. The washer/dryer came in handy and we sat on the little porch for morning coffee. Close to the pool and walks to the beach were quick with a stop at the close by Publix for anything we needed. It was nice to have access to beach equipment, but unfortunately the red tide prohibited us from staying too long. There was only one issue that was noticeable which were missing vertical blind slats in the master bedroom. Would definitely stay here again as the location was perfect.

Mother / Daughter get-away

We walked to the beach every morning, to walk the beach, stay a while, then came back later and joined up with the rest of the "sunset club" watchers! Restaurants galore or head over to Publix, again within walking distance. The condo itself was neat, clean, very nicely furnished and the kitchen was well stocked with everything one would need, just bring on the food. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms were perfect and very clean, along with washer/dryer. We truly loved the screened-in porch. After a day on the beach or driving the rest of the island sight-seeing, or riding the free trolly, resting out there with a nice drink in hand was the best. And in the morning the sunrise streaming through the mangroves, oh yeah, what a way to wake up. Thank you to our guest contact for answering any questions we had about the condo or area. Such a nice and helpful lady! We really hated to leave, but daughter's hubby and my little dog were calling. We WILL be back!

Clean and Comfy

What a wonderful experience staying here. Very welcoming with fresh white roses waiting for us. Everything was clean, comfy, new, and lovely decorated. The only thing that needed more cleaning was the floor. Needed a good mopping. The sheets were so soft and the kids thought their beds were so comfortable. The king bed is a little firm but we enjoyed our good nights sleep. The listing only showed 2 TVs but the king size bedroom had a tv as well. That was also a plus. When they said the kitchen was fully stocked it was fully stocked. It had pretty much everything I needed for cooking plus spices. It also had a Kuerig which was not listed but we were excited to use and they had some pods for us as well. We were able to walk to the beach easily. About 5 minute walk. They have all the beach necessities and a beach cart in the storage closet which was great since we were a family of six with kids 9 and under. Very helpful. Publix and other store are super close by. Great location.

Island: Excellent. Tons of exceptional wide open beautiful beach. Quiet, safe, lower key than many.Location on island: Very good. Near Publix, Walgreens, Bus line, some small dining spots, near exit from island, and only a short walk or bike ride to the beach.Complex: Smaller complex, overall average, but quiet. Smaller pool that is sometimes crowded and arguably too small for the number of bathers. No onsite mgt. We were a little startled by the daytime raccoons that would come out of the woods, climb through the fence, and drink from the crowded pool. Some heavy equip noise from causeway.Unit: Average unit probably built late 80s, clean but could use some updating. Unit is dark-ish, patio backs up to the heavily wooded mangroves and there is no view and almost no sun. Only one small window in spare room for any cross ventilation, sun, or view of complex area. We appreciate the many towels and paper products. Kitchen well stocked with appliances, tools, some spices. Carport nearly impossible to use with any larger vehicle, i was able to back in with a multipoint K turn (wife wouldn't attempt) but if someone parks in the outdoor slot of the next unit, forget it. outdoor "open" parking near unit usually full so if you can't get into the carport it's likely a walk with your gear. Bring a smaller car if you can. One double set of steps to unit. Owner: Responsive and seems like a nice guy. Conclusion: We'll be back to AMI but probably a different spot.

From the owner: "Thank you for your detailed review. We’re so glad you enjoyed the beautiful beaches and the relaxed atmosphere of Anna Maria Island. Many guests choose this location for its convenient access on and off the island, proximity to groceries and dining, and short walk or bike ride to the beach while still offering a peaceful setting.The smaller complex provides a quieter alternative to large resorts, and the mangrove backdrop offers privacy and a serene, natural feel. We’re pleased you found the unit clean and well-stocked, as we aim to provide ample towels, paper goods, and a fully equipped kitchen for a comfortable stay. We continue to evaluate thoughtful updates to enhance the space while maintaining its island charm.We appreciate you noting our responsiveness and are glad you enjoyed your time on AMI."

Was very nicely located. Being right off of Gulf Dr far enough away from the traffic so quiet. Very easily accessible to everything we wanted to find this has been a very relaxing and beautiful trip. Hope to see you again next year.

Vaca stay

Very private. Would definitely stay on this property again. Wagons were very helpful for getting things to the beach. We have stayed near this location in the past and it is the best location on the island for accessing everything from the grocery store to restaurants right across the street. Also very close to the trolley stop as we don't rent a car on the island because we use the FREE trolley every day.

Beautiful condo and beaches

The condo was exactly as the pictures showed! It was very clean and had everything we needed for an awesome stay! The wagon and beach chairs were a plus. We walked to a very private beach down on 36th (15 min). Love this place! Beaches are beautiful! Can’t wait to return!

Perfect Location

Our family recently stayed at this property for spring break. It was quiet, cutely decorated, and perfectly located across the street from Publix (grocery store), Walgreens, CVS, the trolley stop, and Holmes Beach. The owner supplied all the beach gear and even wagon to haul it all in! We had an issue with the WiFi not working, and the property manager and owner worked directly with us to solve the problem quickly. Cannot say enough about this place! Highly recommend!
