Great spot on AMI
We enjoyed this home very much, short walk to the beach less than 5 minutes, ate great food at wicked cantina, swordfish grill, found many shells on the island, two scoops had the best ice cream, and the kids loved the pool. Thank you for a great vacation!

Fantastic Getaway
It was just what we needed as a family. Very spacious for a family of four. Easy walk to the beach and a very quiet relaxing area by the pool. We will book this house for future stays.

Wonderful property-VERY responsive management
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Duncan Real Estate was extremely responsive to a couple of minor issues. They even brought us a brand new beach cart when we just asked for the one provided to be fixed. Side note: This unit has the BEST water pressure of any unit we’ve stayed at before. We would definitely love to book again in the future!

BBQ Needs to Be Replaced
Overall, it is a nice property and is in a great location both close to the beach and easy access to restaurants. I rated this property lower as the BBQ is terrible and the owners would not repair/replace it. Duncan (mgmt co) was very responsive in sending someone out, but the owner is required to make this change. I spent a lot to rent this place for two weeks and the owner cannot be bothered to spend $50-$100 to repair the burners on the grill? We planned to feed our group on the the grill all week and instead had to eat out. The burners are shot and the flame comes out in one spot in the front. The owners clearly have no appreciation for the money you are spending..therefore, I would not stay here again. There are plenty of alternative options on the island..including an identical unit next door.

We couldn't have asked for more - the beds were comfy, the kitchen was spacious and it was close to a Trolley drop off and the beach. We will rent again.

Great place near beach
Property was clean and well maintained. Lots of space. Very nice. Great, quiet location. Few minor maintenance issues but less than normal for a rental property. The kitchen is stocked ok, had to do dishes basically every meal. Lots of towels and everything you need for the beach. 1.5 block walk to the beach, very easy for our small kids. The pool is nice, but a little smaller than you’d think from the pictures (also very shaded, which is probably great in the summer but not ideal in shoulder season). Also, there’s no bathtub like the description says, so keep they in mind The Duncan team was great and very responsive. Overall wonderful and we would stay again. Thanks!

wonderful vacation house
Longer time visitor of Anna Maria. Stayed this time for 1 week with family for spring break. Wonderful, clean house in great location with attentive rental staff. Pool and patio area were perfect with privacy, grill, and both sun and shade. Just wished kitchen was better stocked with higher quality pots and pans. I love to cook during our family trips, and cookware was just not up to same level of excellence as remainder of house.

Great location.. clean updated unit...some refurbishment needed.... counter chairs, dining table and bbq grill very wobbly and a safety concern.... minor issues quickly addressed by Duncan... dryer out for entire stay awaiting parts but laundry was sent out... pool heater out for three days... parts... cable tv out for 3 days until cable co came... dishwasher falling out and utensils and plates and bowls minimal requiring daily dishwasher run .... all minor things that were tolerable and offset by great location and clean modern house. As owner of rental properties in Cape Cod understand things happen and Duncan was very responsive but suggest these areas be addressed by owners or they will just deteriorate renters experience.... heated pool clean and warm however backyard space somewhat limited especially if kids are involved

Fantastic set up
We really enjoyed the property. The space is really laid out well. Our dryer was broken the entire trip, but the property manager did come and grab a load and had it dried and folded. It was still tough to enjoy having to manage it for the week. The main reason we gave it 4 instead of 5 stars was the TV in the bedroom was missing a remote (meaning you had to get up to cut the television off manually ... like a cavemen :)) . Mainly the master bed was really uncomfortable and needed to be replaced. The kitchen was well equipped, pool was great and there were plenty of towels etc. We would certainly stay again for the layout, but only if we knew the dryer was working and the bed had been replaced.

Perfect for our family
The two teenage grandchildren had a wonderful time in the pool. We loved the closeness to the beach where they could walk. The kitchen is missing flatware and kids plastic glasses. We loved it and would rent it again.
