A great vacation
The property was in a great location, close to the beach cafe with it's famous breakfasts and evening live music. Unfortunately, the pool and elevator were out of commission after the hurricanes, but Anna Maria Island was still fabulous. Many thanks to our hosts for keeping us informed

Lovely condo
The condo was great! It looked just as the pictures on-line; it was clean; the kitchen had all the items we needed; the beds and furniture were comfortable; and the grounds of the condo were well kept. We loved going to the pier, and the beach was a short walk away.

Excellent stay
The property was great. Really did have pretty mich everything we needed and then some. Kitchen was very well stocked with small appliances which made food prep a success. We didn't feel like we had to compromise any comforts of home. The rest of the home was very well-equipped too with tons of beach gear, towels, etc,.
Close to everything, short walk to the beach, pool was nice.
It was a great stay for us.

My wife and I have a wonderful experience here. They place looks exactly like the pictures. It was so peaceful here and everyone we met were fun, friendly and helpful. For those who cook they provide everything you need. The pool is close by and everything you need is within walking distance. The owners are friendly and helpful. They care about your experience and make themselves available if needed. My wife and I will be returning. Thanks for a truly wonderful experience
