This house was the perfect spot for our family reunion which included two small children. The back porch opens to an expanse of sand (makes for a killer sand box) and is just steps from the beach (which not only provides breathtaking views but is also super convenient for trips back and forth to the house). The hosts live nearby and were super responsive to our questions about the area.

Friends Florida getaway

Serendipity was the absolute perfect location for our friends Florida getaway. The beach was steps away and sunsets were amazing. The lodging was even better than advertised! Each bedroom had its own en-suite bathroom! Very quiet area but very close to some great restaurants and entertainment. Golf cart was a plus! Rick, Lyn, and Dan were excellent hosts. Would highly recommend this property!

Loved it!

These cute old Florida cottages on the beach are hard to come by. Such beautiful decor and a fabulous view of the ocean. The beach equipment and golf cart were an appreciated bonus, too. We would stay here again!

Beach house

We loved this location! Great spot with awesome views of the ocean. Beds were very comfortable and had plenty of room. The only complaint would be the lack of silverware and no spices. We loved this place!

Beautiful house

I had the pleasure of staying in this beautifully designed and impeccably clean rental house. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by an inviting and well-organized space that exuded a sense of calm and comfort. This beautiful property, provided the perfect backdrop for celebrating an intimate wedding with our parents and closest friends. It’s a true gem for a relaxing getaway and intimate gatherings. We will be back to celebrate our anniversary!

Fantastic Gulf beachfront Villa!

This was our first stay at Serendipity, but will not be our last! Absolutely as pictured, if not better. House is well appointed, all beach gear supplied, and even a golf cart. The owner stopped by to say hello while we were there. Have been visiting Anna Maria for many years, and we will only stay at one of Rick and Lyn's property when we next go back.

We had a great time. Perfect location and it was very dog friendly with the fenced in yard. We could have used a larger table or an outdoor dining table. This was our first visit to Anna Marie and we will definitely be back.
