Sunset Beach House
This is a nice beach house, great location. Just a few steps from the gulf with a private little beach area just outside the house. You can watch sunsets from the living room! The house had everything we needed for our stay. It is walking distance to some places to get breakfast and coffee. Also a Publix grocery store is just down the street. We would definitely stay here again! Some things to note: A safe would have been nice to have. The loft (3rd bedroom) is not closed off, so it might be difficult for someone to sleep up there while people were in the living room. While this house is technically 2 and a half baths, the one bathroom’s shower is a 3’ by 3’ shower stall. Very difficult for an adult to shower in. There are two (maybe 3) outdoor parking spots and one parking spot in the garage. Although it is a very tight fit in the garage.

Location is Perfection!
This house is perfectly situated right on the beach. RIGHT ON THE BEACH! It is very close to shops, restaurants, ice cream, coffee shops, pharmacies and grocery store. Everything is walkable. The house is large and spacious. There is an outdoor hose and shower to get the sand off. The deck was a nice respite from the hot sun. The tables and chairs were nice along with the umbrella. Few things that were slight negatives: 1) Upon checking in, I was disappointed to have to contact the property company about lack of towels and all the broken beach furniture. There was also a broken screen door. That said, the property company was very responsive! 2) the master shower is dysfunctional. You cannot avoid showering without getting water on the floor and the floor is warped as a result. It needs to be redesigned. Not my floor but if it was, I’d get it fixed. 3) the thermostat is set so that you cannot lower it below 68. Yet the house has down comforters. We were hot at night and cold during the day. It was hard to find a happy medium. Down comforters in FL seems odd. Other than those annoyances, the house was perfect. We would rent there again if we returned!

The location was wonderful but maintenance could have been better. Windows impaired the view as they were damaged and fridge handle needed repair too. We left a note with the issues we found in the rental. There were other issues also noted. We appreciated the response for the broken umbrella!

We have vacationed on AMI for Thanksgiving for the last 9 years. This place was roomy and you can not beat the location. Had an issue with keypad getting in but was resolved quickly. Master bathroom shower could use a door or shower curtain - spacious but can't help to get water on the floor. Overall great rental!

Sunset Paradise
We had an amazing February break in the beach! This property accommodated our family (6) perfectly! We have 4 teenage daughters; they had their own space and felt at home. We rented bikes for the week from Fun and Games - it was very affordable and worth it! The location of this property is 1 block from Publix, Walgreens and many local shops. If you’d like to see the sunrise - we biked to the bridge and to 28th street where the views were magical. We saw dolphins, caught fish in the surf, walked the beach, rode bikes, enjoyed the Ugly Grouper (food, drinks and live entertainment) and played lots of games. The property has beach chairs, water floats, sand toys, a char coal grill, puzzles, games and beach towels! We would highly recommend renting.

Great Stay on the Gulf
Perfect spot for a Anna Maria Island getaway. The house was basic, but everything you need when the beach is 10 yards from your door. We did have a few little maintenance issues but the company was quick to respond and fix. I would highly recommend.

Location, Location, Location!
At first blush the house is quirky. But with each passing day of the most relaxing family time right on the beach out the door you quickly forget about any quirks and you fall in love with it. Spent Thanksgiving there and had everything we needed for all our meals. Easy kitchen to cook in. For the price it should have a gas grill instead of the charcoal ones. But it's right on the beach. The pictures highlight the views out the 10 windows from the living space. 7 of the windows have condensation between the panes and are foggy. Some of those blinds are broken and can't be raised. The view is everything and those windows and coverings should highlight it, not detract from it. But it's right on the beach! Had a blast, would go back, don't want to nit pick, but for the price those easy changes should be addressed.

Great house right on the beach
You cannot get any closer to the beach than this home. There were a few maintenance issues that had to be fixed while we were there but the management company was fast to respond and fix the issues. Though there is a garage we could not fit either of our two cars in it. They had plenty of beach toys for the kids in there though!

This beach house was in the perfect spot! We could open the back door and take 30 steps to the ocean! There were also plenty of shops to walk to for last minute needs and special treats. The decor was definitely not updated and there were some minor things that needed fixed in the property. It was by no means “luxurious”, but it met our needs and felt clean. I’d go again, just for the location alone.

Nice house, well-stocked kitchen and amenities, terrific outside area!
We enjoyed staying in this house. It had lots of windows and felt very open. There was a lovely garden between the house and the beach which we could use if we wanted more privacy. The living room was comfortable and the kitchen was large and very well-stocked with every pan or utensil you'll need. It is important to know that there are some minor privacy issues - the master is in the middle of the house and has french doors with curtains over them, but not terribly private. The third bedroom is a loft over the living room, so whoever sleeps up there will rise in the morning whenever the first ones rise. Also, there is not a shower/bathtub upstairs, although there is a half bath. Overall, this house served our needs well and we'd stay there again.
