Wonderful Place on a wonderful island

I have just had one of my best holidays ever. The home is ideally located, just a short walk to beautiful beach. Also very near some very good restaurants. It has a great, private and heated, swimming pool. We are already planning our next holiday and will want to come back to the same home.

Great Villa

We had a great week at this property. Pool had great sun throughout the day. Easy walk to the beach and about a mile into town. Bikes are not needed but a great way to explore the island. Our third time in Anna Maria at a different property every time, this did not disappoint. Two of us on the trip, can fit more but could be tight. Would recommend.

Nice place

Overall stay was enjoyable. Pool is not private as described since there is only a 4 foot high wall separating the properties.. Location is perfect and the home is well equipped. We will probably look elsewhere next year that has a private pool since we go to the beach 1st half of the days and the pool in the afternoon. We want total privacy while in the pool. If that doesn't matter to you this place is perfect.

The property was perfect for our week long vacation. The most beautiful beach is a short walk away. White talcum powder like sands and a bath like sea. The property has a fabulous heated and private pool, I spent much of my time in it. The home has everything you need. The bed in the main bedroom was very comfortable and massive. Quite a lot larger than we are used to in the UK. We are already planning our next holiday and we will be hopefully booking the same home.

Nice little spot

Pros: The home is a block and a half from the Gulf! Such an easy walk to be in the ocean. It’s only a mile walk to The Sandbar restaurant and shops and a little more than that to The Waterfront restaurant. The home was well equipped with dishes, glasses, utensils - everything you would need for a week stay. The pool and outdoor areas were well maintained and the lawn chairs were comfortable and modern. We spent a lot of time in the pool. It was very nice. The air conditioner worked really well and the shower had excellent water pressure. Speaking of showers, the outdoor shower was really nice to wash the beach sand off before heading inside. The bathroom was supplied with a little amenities kit (Dove brand soap, shampoo, and conditioner). The back patio was comfortable and well equipped with pillows on the chairs and a high powered fan. It was perfect to get away from the bugs at twilight. Cons- The pillows were horrendous. I cannot stress this enough- bring your own pillows!!! The bed was just ok-ish. A higher fence around the front of the house would’ve been ideal. There wasn’t really any privacy in the area that we spent the majority of our time. Summary- we would stay again and really enjoyed this house. The cons aren’t meant to dissuade anyone, just a heads up so you know what to expect.

Die Location ist super, ABER in dem Haus waren viele Dinge kaputt oder nicht mehr in Ordnung. Vacasa vor Ort hat sich zwar bemüht die Dinge auszutauschen/ reparieren, aber ein Teil war erst am Ende unseres Aufenthalts verbessert. Schade.

Wunderschönes kleines Ferienhäuschen

Das Haus ist wunderbar auch für einen längeren Aufenthalt. Wir haben dort 7 Nächte verbracht und waren begeistert. Es ist ALLES da, was man braucht. Selbst für den Strand und Pool ist wirklich für jeden etwas dabei (Sandelzeug, aufblasbare Tiere, Ringe etc., Sonnenschirm, Sonnenstühle). Der Weg zum Strand ist sehr kurz. Einmal über die Straße und man ist eigentlich schon am wunderschönen Strand! Wi kommen definitiv wieder!

Perfect Stay during Pandemic!

This was the perfect getaway during Covid19. Having our own private pool and grill was the perfect way to stay socially distanced. The walk to the beach was under 5 minutes and the beach access was uncrowded and led out to a pristine beautiful beach. The place was clean upon arrival and stocked with everything we needed. We will be back!

Frustrated with management

The property had no working dryer and no exterior lighting. We stayed two weeks and had to use the local laundromat because we ran out of clothes. The property did reimburse us $25/day for the inconvenience, but can’t give us our time back. The lack of outdoor lighting was extremely dangerous as the pool is in the front very near the door. A repairman came, took two solar lights and placed them on the patio table and told us once they were charged we could place them anywhere we needed. They never worked. Another repairman simply said, “Things break.” This is unacceptable! We visit AMI frequently, always staying in homes or condos, and will never use this company again. We will go back to using AMI Accomodations. Joe & Kathy Mylet
