Nice open floor plan, updated kitchen and baths. The bedroom configuration was as described. Pool and outdoor area was very nice. Short walk to a very nice beach. 3rd bath is the pool bath but it was not inconvenient and was nice. Only complaint is grill did not work and kitchen furnishings were slightly underwhelming.

Beach life

This properly appears to be recently renovated. It was clean however it needed a few more repairs. The ceiling fan in the main bedroom need to be replaced. Bed needed repaired. The pool cage screen needed repaired. Bugs were coming in and biting us. Pool deck needs pressure washing. Small repairs would have made our stay perfect.

Great location, great space

We stayed over Easter. The house itself was great, it appeared to be recently updated.The one thing the house lacks is curb appeal. There was no landscaping , just overgrown weeds, even around the pool. I found myself pulling weeds because there were so many. Kitchen has everything you need. Local property management was easy to communicate with and quick to respond. Overall a good stay, would definitely come back.

Family friendly - great for boaters too!

We really enjoyed our stay here - it was perfect for our needs with adults and elementary age kids. Very spacious. We loved the pool area and the fact that we could bring our 21 ft boat. I will book here again!

Issues with basic accommodations

*bed frame in master en-suite is broken. Wood is actually cracked but very few screws are holding this frame together so all the slats supporting the mattress move. Was not able to get a decent nights rest. Sheets were poor quality and did not fit well. No mattress protector at all. We had to try and repair the frame enough to just try and sleep on it.*bbq grill was unsanitary and a fire hazard with the massive amount of grease residue *fans on beautifully pictured patio either don’t work or only sometimes work*pool/patio area was a mess. A previous review on 6/12/25 mentioned plastic finger nails around the porch, dirtiness, broken concrete on waterfall-all issues still remained unrepaired by our visit on 6/29/25*hot tub/spa runs but doesn’t warm??*AC does not adequately cool the front king bed room*had to tighten legs on living room chairs as they were all loose and could not be used as such*lots of warning about disarming the sliding door alarms, however the didn’t work our entire trip*could only use one set of sliding doors as other sets to patio would not open*diswasher isn’t mounted well and when you open the door it come out of the cabinet*kitchen sink does not drainHouse has potential and looks great in pictures but actual condition is much different. It is truly a great location but needs basic attention to be comfortable and safe.

False advertisement!!! Dirty pool and pool deck This home only sleeps 6 but advertised sleeping 8...

The pool and pool deck were filthy and it took 2 days for them to send someone to clean the pool did not clean pool deck there were fake finger nails and melted water balloons on the deck. 3 of the 6 exterior doors did not lock one door wouldn’t even close. Garage door didn’t work. We had to put the couch and a chair in front of them since they all lead to the pool and canal! There was a bathroom sick with counter attached propped up in pool area up against the door leading into the house. Water fall going into the pool was broken concrete but still there hanging into the pool causing a dangerous situation for anyone near it. We requested to have some one come out to fix the issues and were told they could not get a hold of local management. Dirty cooking utensils put back into the cabinets. The home only sleeps 6 but advertised as sleeping 8 when we called about it they told me to put 3 guest in both king beds and then it would sleep 8. Yard was over grown with weeds there was debris (shingles, glass and trash) in the yard so we could not use that either. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!

Good time but Small bathrooms

We had a great time with family and enjoyed the house and pool! Please be aware the inside bathrooms are very small, the outside shower is bigger but kinda inconvenient, my hubby is 6'5" and had to use it. Other than the age of the property, its nice and the pool area is great!

Great location - property needs many things addressed

I have sent photos and a lot to customer service, I have not heard back from them except for we will look into it. We paid over $2,000 for 5 nights and have not been offered any compensation. The over all property was unkept, weeds all outside of the lania, a ripped screen on the Lanai, trash (Dorito bag, straw wrappers, caps from water bottles, etc, etc) throughout the property. The dishwasher was not connected to the cabinets/counter so when you opened it, the door leaned out when trying to load dishes. The stove was not leveled, it was plugged in and that was it. There was a vanity sink on the pool deck inside the Lanai that was removed from somewhere. There was weeds/grass growing in the cracks of the pool deck. The accordion blinds in the master bedroom - that was in the flood from the hurricane - ARE STILL HANGING! You can see the water line on the blinds. The glass doors in the hall bathroom are hung wrong and water goes out onto the floor when you shower and someone is going to close those doors and glass is going to shatter. The pool deck was littered from a previous guest that apparently had water balloon fights and balloon pieces were melted onto the pool deck, there were fake finger nails on the pool deck. The front bedroom - you are unable to change the speed of the fan as the pull rope is non existent. Other than having Roku - no local TV can be found or watched. The wifi - was AWFUL. None of our family even hooked up to the wifi and still couldn't watch anything even if we signed into our streaming services. The items in the kitchen, very sparse at best. Again, great location.....

Great location

The location of this home is wonderful. The home itself needs some work. The lanai area is fabulous! The pool and jacuzzi were wonderful. Unfortunately, the home itself was not as great. The beds are very hard, the kitchen is not well appointed and the supplies that are there are subpar. The dining room table only accommodates 4 even though there are three bedrooms. There are plenty of beach chairs to use which was very nice.

Kitchen Utensils

This is an outstanding property! It lacks some quality kitchen “tools” “utensils” whatever you would call it. Was very difficult to cook! Needs better pots, pans, KNIVES for sure. Other than that, loved it!

Far From Finest

While we loved the pool and hot tub, this property could use some serious attention from its owners and managers. A few hours of electrical, plumbing, carpentry and general cleanliness would go a long way. Not our first visit to AMI but this property’s condition isn’t for us.

House was clean, on a quiet street, near restaurants and beach. The dock was great for our boat with easy access to the gulf. The kitchen lacked measuring cups, can opener and steak knives but we we able to pick those up at the store. The beds were comfortable and and the air conditioner cooled the home perfectly. The pool area could use a good pressure washing but the pool was maintained properly by the pool service. We enjoyed the pool and gas grill for cooking. The outside bathroom was wonderful for rinsing and washing off after a day at the beach. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to another vacation on AMI!

This was a nice home, very spacious. There is a need for a cleaning around the backyard outside of the patio. The patio needs to be pressure washed and swept as my son and I both stepped on tiny pieces of glass during our stay. The sliding glass doors are very hard to open and make it almost impossible to get shut before the 8 seconds alarm starts blaring. The boat dock is very nice and the AC works great! Beds could use new mattress as they are all very hard. We enjoyed our stay nonetheless.

family vacation/ June 2020

House was great! Only bad part was the air was not working when we arrived. We called and had to wait on hold for almost 2 hours but finally got someone to come out (even on a Sunday at 9:00 at night). So thank you so much!! For future renters make sure you bring your own salt and pepper as there was none. Also there was no foil or plastic wrap. Our kids loved the pool and the lanai was great! My husband fished off the dock so he enjoyed that. The third bathroom which is in the lanai was air conditioned and nice to have by the pool! Rented scooters from Robinhood rentals and had a great time riding around the island. Would recommend this house! Thanks for the wonderful stay!

Family Vacation on Anna Maria Island

We had a great stay at this rental. The space was large and clean. The pool was huge (and warm) and the location was convenient to everything on the island. The rental company, Vacasa, had several offices on the island. We had an issue on the first day with the garbage disposal, and they came out to fix it promptly. The bathrooms could use some updating. We changed one of the shower curtain liners because it was moldy, although I imagine Vacasa would have done it if we asked. They left us with some shampoos, soap, small dish washing liquid, and a packet of laundry detergent, but not enough for the week. There were NO dry staples in the house, such as salt & pepper, sugar packets, etc, which would have been nice. Also no can opener...which we had to also buy. An overall nice trip to AMI. We hope to return some day.

Great location

For the price to rent this house I am giving it three stars due to the cons. I would not rent this house again mainly due to the bathrooms Pros Great location, close to beach and on boat canal Lots of space and room and plenty of parking TVs in every room Great entertaining kitchen Plenty of beach chairs and toys Hugh pool patio with a lot of seating Cons Cannot use boat lift although the boat was fine without it Cannot use outdoor kitchen Cannot use wine refrigerator House is a good size but very outdated, furniture was old and dirty Pool and pool area was unclean and needs pressure washed. Deck around pool needs repaired Screen door was broken Bathrooms are very small, not very good water pressure and needs updating No grass in yard The pool alarms were very annoying to deal with. I appreciate the safety Feature but if you are not having young children there there is no need to require them to be on Plenty of pots and pans but bring your own knives

Very Disappointing Experience

Cute place in a decent location. But in desperate need of maintenance. Bathroom fans squealed so loud that you couldn't turn the lights on without disturbing the whole house. Back doors have pool safety alarms, which wouldn't be a big deal if the back doors were working normally. They were so hard to open and close that the alarm goes off every time - and its loud. They also left no bedding for the fold out bed which we discovered at 11pm and had to drive to a store and buy our own. The worst part was we got no communication or response for many attempts to contact Vacasa. I've never actually left a bad review before in my life, but this was unacceptable.
