Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear that everything felt absolutely perfect and that you found the home spotless and well-appointed. The deck is one of our favorite spots too — there’s just something special about relaxing there and soaking in the beauty of Anna Maria Island.
It was a pleasure hosting you, and we truly appreciate the care you showed our home. We would love to welcome you back to Serendipity Anna Maria anytime for another relaxing getaway!
Oh c'mon now. Where to begin! We travel through beautiful Anna Maria Island to our stunning vacation rental in our Mustang convertible rented in Michigan. Out front is a sign celebrating my wife's surprise 70th birthday. (The gracious hosts decorated the home with 70th birthday decorations I sent them). We enter the fully equipped garage and enter the home. The perfect serene music is playing on the entertainment center which is displaying a burning fireplace. An inviting, subtle scent welcomes you to the absolutely stunning view out of the row of wall to wall windows. This home was immaculate! Every need was anticipated. The golf cart was a blast. I could go on and on but wanted to Thank the hosts for an unforgettable first time VRBO experience. We hope to make this home a birthday tradition every year!

It was an absolute honor to be a small part of your wife’s 70th birthday celebration. We’re so glad the decorations, music, and little touches helped set the tone for such a special occasion—that’s exactly the experience we hope to create for our guests.

We can't wait to welcome you back for another fantastic stay! If you have any special requests for your next booking, feel free to let us know.

Comfortable, well appointed home in the perfect location. The view from the family room/kitchen area is stunning if you like Caribbean like water views. We had a great time.
Loved using the paddle boards, sea kayak, beach chairs/umbrellas, golf cart, and even beach towels. It was a nice treat not to worry about buying or renting any of those items, as we flew on this vacation.
Beautiful views of the water. It was so relaxing watching dolphins, boats, and even a couple manatees. Many great restaurants were only a golf cart ride away. Hope to return to A.M.I.!

Thank you for your lovely review! We're so glad you enjoyed the beautiful water views and the local wildlife—dolphins and manatees are always a treat to see! It's great to hear that the convenience of nearby restaurants added to your experience. We’d love to welcome you back to Anna Maria Island soon!
We had an unforgettable vacation at this home. Everything you could want to enjoy the weather is provided. The location can’t be beat. You will love it!
Beautiful spot overlooking the bay
Saw an abundance of wildlife: five dolphins at one time preforming while pelicans were dive bombing at the same time!
So close to bean point beach and rod and reel
Great sisters getaway
This property has an incredible view and is in a great location. Beach access is nearby. The kitchen came equipped with everything we needed. It was a great family vacation!
all was above and beyond - everything was clean and fresh and all the extras like chairs, golf cart, hot tub were top notch. All the inside stuff was great, elevator worked well, outside backyard and beach was great. We loved it, our kids loved it and their kids loved it.
I have to say this was an amazing property and a small perfect piece of paradise in between hectic stays at universal and Disney. The location right on the beach at bean point was perfect. We spent all our time watching the sea, spotting wildlife and relaxing, we didn’t want to leave and hope to revisit one day. Communication was great and friendly, house was beautiful - clean, luxurious, well stocked kitchen and all the beach/sea kit you could need and more. Just a word of caution for the sea, the currents and warnings are very real but this won’t spoil your stay in the slightest if you are sensible and don’t go beyond standing height if swimming in the sea. Get the golf buggy it was great fun! Thankyou for such a wonderful stay. Ruth, Matt and 3 happy kids xx
We’ve stayed in a lot of rentals homes with our four children - this is one of the best ever. Very clean, thoughtfully stocked and well equipped. The use of the beach toys and the golf cart were an added bonus. Check in/out couldn’t be easier and management was very responsive.
We visited this BEAUTIFUL property for a girls bachelorette weekend (there were 9 of us) this property could not have been any more perfect! The porch swing, and breathtaking views is what sold us on the property initially but the amazing experience we had will be what brings us back time and time again.

We love the house and location. However, they just changed over to a company to manage the property called Wander and they were terrible. We spent most of the trip dealing with repairs. One being the dryer, and it was never fixed. We had wet stinky clothes to bring home and wash.

Thank you for your honest feedback. We're truly sorry that your stay was impacted by maintenance issues and a lack of support. We did try transitioning to a new management company, but based on valuable guest feedback like yours, we quickly made the decision to return to Serendipity Management. Our goal has always been to provide personal, responsive care, and we deeply regret that wasn’t your experience this time. We truly love this home and its incredible location, and we hope you’ll give us another opportunity to deliver the quality stay you deserve.
We had a large crew for a picturesque wedding right on the beach. Rick and his staff were great, catering to our every need. We will be back for sure. All of his properties are top notch.
Great, great location, beautiful views, nice beach, well appointed. Tons of toys from bikes to kayaks, paddle board, ping pong and a super nice golf cart which we used daily. It was the perfect holiday with everything you could possible want or need. Would highly recommend.
We absolutely loved Serendipity 1 on Anna Maria Island. My family had a wonderful stay overall. The home is lovely, the location is fantastic with beautiful views. We saw dolphins and manatee daily swim by from our balcony. We even watched some dolphins jumping out of the water! The hosts were very accommodating and communicated with us the entire time. If we needed something, it was provided. We would definitely stay here again in the future.

Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re delighted to hear that you and your family had a wonderful stay at Serendipity 1 on Anna Maria Island. It’s great to know that you enjoyed the lovely home and fantastic location, and how exciting to have daily sightings of dolphins and manatees right from the balcony! We’re glad our team could assist you whenever needed. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future!
Amazing!! We were so pleased with Serendipity! Super clean. It had everything we needed. The beds were so comfortable! It’s located in a very nice neighborhood near shopping and restaurants. Bean Point Beach is just steps away. The view from the porch is tremendous. We loved every minute at Serendipity. We were sad to leave.
Absolutely best AMI location. Right on the beach and steps from miles of the best walking beach I’ve encountered. We did not want to leave this home with its 180 degree view out the wall of windows. Just imagine waking each morning to pelicans soaring and diving. It’s an exquisite natural wonderland. We enjoyed making meals in the well equipped kitchen and found the beds to be super comfy. The owners were completely available for any and all assistance. This was a great place for us to relax and recoup after Christmas. All six of us give this home a 10!!
Everything was beautiful, the house was as we expected, very well stocked kitchen ! the communication with the property manager was fantastic! Beautiful views from the porch . the only drawback was that there is a public access point on one side of the house and an empty lot on the other side so there was a lot of public traffic - people walking very close to the house, swimming and fishing right below you and vehicle parking in the empty lot
went here on spring break with another family. 10 of us total. 6 kids, 4 adults. we all had an amazing time. the back of this property is not necessarily a beach that you would want to take little kids. but we had a couple of calm days and used the stand up paddle boards, etc. the beach was a quick golf cart ride away. it was just a magical trip. and rick and his wife were very helpful and wonderful hosts! couldnt recommend this place more!
