Beautiful Stay
We had three adult couples staying for our short trip. The house was beautiful and very well maintained. As stated in some of the other reviews, the pictures of the beach access were a tad misleading. There is a large concrete barrier to climb over with not a whole lot of sand area to sit by the water remaining. It didn't change my overall opinion on the property. We still loved the trip and will be recommending to anyone looking to stay in the area. The owner was extremly responsive and such a great help to the few question I had. Loved the property and will definitely stay again!

Not accurate description/ photos
The photos of the property and description are not accurate. There is a huge cement retaining wall and 4 plus feet of rock to get to the water. This is not a “walk out the back yard to the water” property.
The property, the island, the beaches....everything was wonderful. Already planning to go back!

Living the Dream
This was an incredible luxury palace that my children and their partners and my elderly in-laws stayed for a week. From the gourmet kitchen to the high end finishes and elevator, it totally served all of our needs. The outdoor pool and spa and the grounds were spectacular. The golf cart, bikes, water toys and games were a complete hit. It is close to everything so you could walk, bike or take the golf cart wherever you needed to go. Our family of eight ranged from 20-80 years old and we all felt we were at a luxury resort! Highly, highly recommend!! We could walk into the water and swim, we saw manatees, dolphins, manta rays, and tins of fish right from one of the two balcony’s. Hot tub heats up in seconds and wifi was great. We love Anna Maria Island and will definitely be back. ❤️❤️❤️

Beautiful Home in Anna Maria
We had a wonderful time in this home in Anna Maria. The 4 king bed bedrooms with private baths were all very comfortable and extremely beautiful! The home had a golf cart and bicycles for our use.There are restaurants, cafes and shops all within walking distance. And of course, the beach is right there!

Great Place
This home worked great for our family. My wife’s parents were with and the elevator made things very easy for the them. Everything was spotless and perfect. We even went fishing with a place on their recommended list and had a blast. Captain Major knew what he was doing! We saw dolphins from the deck and fell sleep to the sound of waves. We will be back.

The best days of my life!!
Serendipity Duex is my dream come true. From the mind blowing Caribbeam color water like views, to the elegant high end decor, the architecture of the home, it is like something out of a fairy tale. The home is well stocked, spotlessly clean, the marble showers are spacious with various heads (which were appreciated), the pool and its arches feel like they’re straight from architectural digest. I’ve rented high end properties all over the world and this was hands down my favorite. A+ would be an understatement. Also the hosts were very kind and responsive. Thank you for your hospitality. This is a dream come true I will never forever. A place in time that will stand still.

Perfect for us!
We fell in love the moment we arrived. This cute little beach cottage was exactly as we’d envisioned. Even with homes on either side, it felt very private. We loved having access to bikes, paddle boards and kayaks and used them daily. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed. We especially enjoyed having access to Coppertone, the golf cart. What a fun way to see the island.
We lived in the ocean and saw manatee and dolphin galore. Nightly strolls to Bean Point for sunset became our new normal. We even flew a kite!
We didn’t have a chance to meet Rick and Lyn, but we did meet Dan and Goose (property managers) who could not have been nicer. Goose contacted us prior to arrival and made sure we had everything taken care of so we could relax and enjoy.
We left our hearts on AMI. Thank you for sharing your home with us and allowing us to bring our daschunds too. This made the trip even more special having them with us.

Quaint Cottage Prefect Aminities
We booked this cottage a because we were a little late in the game settling vacation plans. I was a little nervous about the size for the three of us - hubby, myself and teenager. The living, dining and kitchen were large and open! The bedrooms were fine and the beds were very comfortable. We really found a great value in the bikes and kayaks and paddle boards at the house, we always spend a ton renting them. We also lucked out and were able to use a golf cart that belonged to the owners but is normally not part of the rental. The linens were clean and plentiful. I brought beach towels but there were so many at the house we didn’t need to. The bathroom is functional and I actually liked the open style shower for running in and washing off. The house doesn’t have central AC but the units work very well and we were comfortable the whole week. The House was also VERY clean. All in all it’s a cute house in a perfect beachfront location. Everything was taken care of by the owners. It’s no luxury home but it wasn’t gross and the furniture was clean and comfortable. You can’t beat the price for beachfront with all the aminities provided for a small group. We have a great time and we will definitely rent from these owners again.

Great location, right on beach. As described a bit rustic !
Really enjoyed staying at this cottage on the beach. Wonderful location right on small, almost private beach at very North end of the island. Appliances and carpeting a bit « worn » but in general things were clean and as advertised. Nice to have functional washer and dryer on site. Communication was good and repair person came by to check that things were good.
