We really enjoyed our stay. The beach is so stunning! We loved being right on a private beach, waking up and walking right onto it was incredible. They do provide chairs and umbrella but i highly recommend bringing your own. We will definitely stay here again!

Great location, pool area great and beach area fantastic! Love the close proximity to Anna Maria Island and close to a few restaurants. Wish there had been a chair or 2 in the room as the only place to sit was the bed or bar stool.

Quick Weekend Getaway

We were looking to get a quick weekend getaway without the kids and this was great. The room was very clean, housekeeping everyday, and just a few feet from the beach. The beach chairs and umbrellas were a great addition.

It would be helpful if the association would install better lighting. A light by the coffee pot area and better lighting in the bathroom. I can accept that it is outdated but a few, relatively cheap improvements would be helpful.

Perfect Getaway

This was the perfect February getaway from the cold northern winter for my husband and I. The room was nicely decorate, efficient, clean, and best of all steps away from a spectacular beach! The office staff was incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make our stay easy and pleasant. We'd definitely come back!
