Hi Alex,
Thanks for your review!
Thank you,

The house was in a great location! Easy access to the beach, trolly and groceries. The pool was a favorite for all with space for kids to play and the adults to hang out as well and a sun shelf for a baby to play as well. Had some issues with the fridge ice machine but they delivered ice daily to accommodate which was amazing! Could use a few baby items at the house. We left a pack n play and baby walker so hopefully they stay at the house. Other then that the house had everything we needed and the property managers were very responsive. Would definitely stay again!

Stayed for a week with family. Enough room for everyone to spread out or gather together. Loved the location close to public beach and grocery. The backyard with pool and spa was a favorite for all. House is furnished with comfortable bedding and towels. Many looked brand new. We cooked in most evening and kitchen had everything we needed. The floors could use a good cleaning. Overall, we loved our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to return again.

We hope you will allow us to host you again on your next adventure to the island. You and your family were wonderful guests!
Great location very close to beach. Two families of 4 stayed and had a blast. Walking to the beach each day followed up by pool in the afternoon and cooking out by the pool then going up roof to watch the sunset!

Great place. 5 bedrooms 4 bathrooms. Very nice kitchen, fenced in pool area with an outdoor kitchen/grill, tables and chairs along with 4 loungers to relax and catch some sun. The beach is a one block walk. Quick responses from both owner and rental company.

Amazing Location! Walk to everything!
Amazing location and walking distance to the beach, the mermaid, the sandbar and slims. Brand new construction and very clean with a great view from the rooftop. Pool is great for entertaining and private. Great stay!
Home was all that I could ask for. Comfortably housed 10 adults. Great location for beach and constant trips to grocery store.

David, thank you for choosing to stay with us! it is wonderful to hear how cozy and convenient the home was for all of you. We hope to have the pleasure of hosting you all again. The island is waiting for your return.
We stayed for a week as a family of 10. The house has a great layout and wonderful backyard entertaining area. The location is perfect to spend your days between the beach and house!
This place was excellent! The proximity to the beach made this trip excellent! We could walk to the store if we needed anything, and ride the free trolley around the island. The house was perfect! We loved all the beach chairs and wagon. Pool was beautiful!
Loved this property! Awesome pool was enjoyed daily. Short walk to turquoise water. Small issues were handled quickly. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

Tammy, 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!
While the home has some charm, it is dated and needs refreshing. Maintained backyard pool, quality linens and towels, well equipped kitchen are positives, broken blinds, ripped and dirty drapes and floors that left your bare feet filthy are negatives.

Our aim is to provide a comfortable and well-maintained living environment for all our guests. We value your input and hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future, with an improved experience.
We had a beautiful vacation on Anna Maria Island 🏝️. The house exceeded our expectations. For a group of 10, there was plenty of space, fully functional kitchen, the washer/dryer was helpful for many sandy/salty towels, and the pool/hot tub were awesome. It’s a quick walk to the beach. Book a stay here. You won’t be disappointed!
We spent a wonderful week at Beach View Retreat. The house was fully stocked, very clean and easily accommodated our family. The beach was right across the street. A beach cart was provided which made it easy to cart all our stuff. The pool, hot tub and patio were a great place to have afternoon drinks before going to dinner. We would definitely stay there again. Can’t wait to go back.

Property in great conditions. Clean, spacious, comfortable. Bathrooms in good conditions. Location is wonderful, near the beach. The pool was clean. Only the BBQ was not that clean. Our stay was great. I would definitely recommend this property

Lovely House
We had a perfect stay in this beautiful dream house. Everything was clean, well equipped and the decoration is special. It makes you feel like you are part of this beautiful island. The view of the terrace is spectacular, I particularly fall in love with the sunsets.
The private pool was great for the tasty family barbecues.
We recommend it and for sure we will be back soon.
See you AMI ...
We had a wonderful time at Beach View Retreat! My siblings, our spouses and I spent the week relaxing and enjoying ourselves in this great property. Plenty of room for all nine of us, close to the beach, and clean!
The property manager responded quickly to our few questions and the pool man showed up twice to make sure the pool was sparkling.
If we could have asked for anything, it would have been more clothes hangers in the closets, a few pot holders and some dish towels.
We would definitely recommend this property for your visits to AMI and we plan on staying there again!

Thank you for allowing us to host you, Randal. We are glad you enjoyed the home and convenient location. We also appreciate your feedback as we strive to create the best possible experience. You were terrific guests, and we hope to welcome you all back again soon!
Nine of us stayed for the week of June 8. Kids were 2,6,& 8 with 6 adults. The layout was just right for us.
The pool and shade area was great for afternoon swims when it was too hot at the beach. Manatee public beach with all of the amenities was just across the street.
Inside the house the furniture was not too formal and not too cheap. We didn’t have to worry with the children. The large coffee table has a puzzle going on it the whole week.
We would be happy to stay here again!
Management was available by text and very responsive to our few extra needs.
*The floors could be cleaner but the bathrooms and kitchen were perfect.

Lovely Beach Stay
This home is conveniently located near many restaurants, shops, and beach. It was clean, spacious and had the basics. The beds were too hard for our taste, and all the TVs are programmed for streaming. No cable or satellite so it made viewing tv programs a bit challenging. There’s a lot of information about the area in the home, and trash collection and how to work the door lock, there should’ve been a manual on how to work the remotes for the tv and programs. The elevator in the home is not for guest use, so something to consider if traveling with disabilities. This home is three levels, the ground floor is where the pool is, 2nd is kitchen, living room, etc., and the 3rd is the master bedroom. There’s a 4th that is set up for viewing the outdoor surroundings. So be prepared for carrying all things up stairs.

Hi Glenda,
Thank you for your review and your feedback. Since your stay, we have added a cable box to the living room TV to help alleviate any issues with the smart TVs. I will work on adding instructions on how to use the remotes and smart TVs. I apologize if there was any confusion regarding the elevator. We do not list is as an amenity for the home since it is reserved for owner use. Thank you for being great guests! Glad you enjoyed the location of the home.
Thanks,
Andrea
The house and property were clean upon arrival. After only one day the refrigerator died. We placed a call and maintenance staff was there immediately. Unfortunately it took 4 more days to have a working fridge, but they did bring one for the garage. It wasn't convenient, but they did make it right for us. One major gripe is that there are NO dressers in the bedrooms. Four adult couples had to live out of suitcases for a week, which is unacceptable. A simple solution would be to put an inexpensive dresser in each closet (which had no hangers either). Kitchen could use some rectangular pans, a mixer, measuring spoons, mixing bowls, etc. A quick trip to ikea would take care of these things that make it a comfortable stay for adults. All in all, nice home.
