Hi Barry, We are very happy that you enjoyed your stay at our place on Anna Maria, and would be delighted to have you and your family back again. Thank you for the the wonderful review! We appreciate it. Best regards, Michael Trauner

Thank you, Thomas. We're delighted that you enjoyed your stay at Osprey House and look forward to having you and your family back anytime.

Thank you, John. We appreciate your kind words and the review. It was our pleasure for you to stay at our place. To add a clarification for future reader's, we do not rent out the other side of our place so that guests have privacy and the property to themselves during their vacations.

We appreciate all reviews, especially those with constructive suggestions that assist us in continuously improving our property and guest experience. The five star ratings, wonderful reviews and continued reservations by repeat guests year after year attest to that. Part of the process of continual improvement is good communication with our guests. We hope to answer any question a prospective guest may have, from before their arrival, through their contact less check-in and finally after their departure and return home. I invite anyone with questions to contact me at anytime during their stay- and provide my cell phone number for that purpose. In this case, a few of the reviewers questions could have easily been answered and resolved had I known about them. We do use commercial washer/ dryers, with coin operated chutes, as we have found them to be much more durable and reliable for our guests. However, the coin drawers are left open and unlocked with quarters provided in them for our guests to use. A brand new kitchen with granite tops was installed in October of this year, and items like salt and pepper shakers are in fact stocked in one of the cabinets for our guests along with coffee filters. Up until now we have never had a request for a first aid kit, but will get one as it seems like a good idea to have should the need arise. Finally, there is no underlying reason for the musty odor that was referenced in one of the upstairs bedrooms- but we will check that out. After every guest visit we have a three person cleaning crew carefully go through the house to deep clean and check everything out. It is our hope that every guest enjoys our vacation home and truly unique location of the property right on the beach as much as we do.
