Comfy beach rental!

Terrific place!

We really enjoyed our weekend stay!! The cottage is super clean and cute! Backyard sitting in the evenings is the best. The cottage has everything you need, just bring a bathing suit!! Beds are comfortable, we slept very well. Close to the beach, restaurants and shops. This was my first trip to AMI but it won’t be my last and I’d definitely stay here again.

Quick beach break

This cottage is just as described. New appliances and a fully equipped kitchen. Lots of towels, two king beds with excellent mattresses, and a large back yard with lounge chairs, a grill and comfy screened porch. Contact with and instructions from the hostess were outstanding. Easy walk to the beach and several excellent restaurants.

Phenomenal location & owner

Cindy was the best host we’ve ever encountered. She is so accommodating and communicative. She made our trip so easy! The location is perfect, just a few minutes walk to the beach or the bay, a couple blocks over from all of the shopping and restaurants on Pine Street and just down the street from a trolley stop. She has all the amenities for making the beach trip easy & comfortable…a wagon to hold the chairs, an umbrella, a cooler and all of your bags. I would highly recommend!

Stayed there again for a few days for our anniversary. Great location, nice place, wonderful host. We couldn't ask for anything better. That's why we keep going back. We left just before Hurricane Helene and are praying for Cindy and Anna Maria Island.

Issues with navy blue pillow cases has stains from some one sleeping on them before us. I was able to wash and use them. The second issue was the deputies and parking. On our first stay we got a 50 dollar ticket parking on Fern St. there are no clear signs to not park on a paved surface.

We had an amazing experience. We loved the house. It was super clean and it had everything you needed. It was only a block away from the beach and very close to all the restaurants. I will stay there every time that I go visit Anna Maria Island. I also recommend it to all family and friends. I'm a customer for life. Thank you.

Perfect Couple Getaway

This place was very clean. Check in and out was smooth. Property manager was easy to communicate with, if anything was ever needed. Ideal place for a couple, or 2 couples if you don't mind the limited common space and sharing a bathroom It's right in the heart of AMI with walking distance to everything you'd need. We grabbed some beverages from the local convenient store a block away and ate out for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Believe the VRBO listed the property as having a "Coin Laundry", not sure if that's just referring to nearby Laundromats, but there is full size washer/dryer out on back patio closet - which seems like quite efficient use of space. Soaps, trash bags, towels (beach and bath), well stocked kitchen - even coffee filters for the coffee, which was nice! I did have one small issue, if you call it that... The washer on the outside hose faucet needs to be repaired fixed as it made water spray everywhere when trying to rinse off. For the price point, this place is hard to beat! The title of the unit is accurate. We'd definitely stay here again!
