The location was great. It’s a short walk to the beach and right across from the trolley stop. The only negative was the toilets and how they flushed. There was a wagon full of beach supplies in the garage. The kitchen was well stocked. The pool and hot tub was used daily.

It was a great house with a very short walk to the beach. House was clean and well kept.The house is right off Gulf Blvd so it can be a little loud

Great location and house with all amenities needed for the size of our family. Beds were comfortable. We had 1 issue with the sink and dishwasher but it was handled quicky and efficiently. We loved the pool and hot tub. We were impressed wirh the staff at Sato: from booking to check-out everyone was helpful, courteous and kind. AMI has been our vacation location for 5 years and For Shore is our favorite house! The staff at Sato are fantastic!

Hi Melinda, thank you for the kind words and great review. Thanks, Sato Real Estate.
The check in/out was super easy! We flew in and stayed for a week. Having known what the house offered beach wise, would have been helpful. They had a wagon ( extremely helpful!), beach umbrellas and chairs, boogie boards and some floats. The house also had beach towels which was great. The kitchen had minimal utensils and dishes,but it was fine. Overall, the location was great with easy access to the beach. The pool was awesome also. It is off the main, busy road, so it could be loud as trucks came by at times. We really enjoyed our stay at For Shore!!

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, Tina. We're glad you enjoyed your stay. Please note, we do not leave a list of beach supplies because they are not guaranteed which is why we don't advertise them. Sorry there were not more utensils in the kitchen. We will look into restocking.
Lovely stay at this property. The beach is one
of the closest and beautiful’s on the area, Anna Maria Islands offers the cleanest beach and the must family oriented atmosphere ever. Love this place and the Sato Rentals team.

Hi Victor, thank you for the kind words and great review. We are glad you all enjoyed your stay, and we look forward to hosting you again! Thanks, Sato Real Estate.
The stay was great . Only thing we noticed from last year to this year was we didn’t have many towels . Last year we had alot , this year we have 2 big towels per bathroom. We washed towels every day . Very few beach towels also. Kitchen was in good shape but we found it not to be as stocked with things as last year. We loved our stay and would stay again for sure .
Enjoyed the home, location was excellent, 2 very short blocks to public beach access. Home was sparsely stocked and had to immediately grocery shop for minimum essentials including tp and paper towels. The only seasoning in the cupboards was 1/2 small container of ground pepper, so it was kind of a bummer to have to shop for everything to prepare any kind of meal in the home knowing we would have to leave everything or waste it after using a couple of shakes of salt or garlic powder. Outside of some minor inconveniences, we enjoyed our time on stunning Anna Maria Island very much!

The home was clean and was a few minute walk to the beach. The home had everything we needed, and was spacious enough for everyone. The pool and hot and outdoor seating were very nice to sit and relax. The home is located on the corner and the street is a little busy.

Hey Juliann, thank you for the positive feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We appreciate you choosing Sato Real Estate and we hope to host you again.
Great experience overall. Simple walk to the beach (2 blocks), amazing private pool and nice neighborhood. Only "negative", due to traffic on the main road (located next to the house) you get some noise, but nothing major. I would recommend this house to anyone.

Great property, great location close to the beach.
Great overall experience. The property is steps away from the beach and at a nice location very close to the entrance of the island. The pool and hot tub along with outdoor seating was great.
We had issues with our A/C and an appliance, and property managers were very responsive to fix these issues during our stay.
This property is right along the main road in and out of AMI, so there is a bit of road noise, but it didn’t negatively affect our stay.

Great location to beach
House was very nice. Location to the beach was awesome but to close to busy noisy Gulf Drive. Pool and outdoor was great but sun not on pool this time of year. Wish there was an elevator and better pans for cooking and need plastic bowls and plates for the pool area.

One block to the beach which was awesome. The house is very nice with all the amenities. There was a problem with the hot tub and the maintenance staff worked very hard to rectify. The staff was excellent. Bathroom with each bedroom was nice so everyone felt like they had a suite. On a busy street with lots of traffic. Location to beach and all there is to do made that ok with us.
