I highly recommend this property as it is super clean with plenty of amenities. The property is just a short drive to major beaches and dining options. Maria was very communicative and made the process easy. We had 2 couples in our group and this fit the bill with 2 bedrooms and 2 baths.

Accurate description, nice short stay.

We enjoyed our time at this property, we did notice it could use a good deep clean. It unexpectedly came with some beach things (chairs/umbrellas/etc) which were great, and the quick communication upon check-in was very appreciated. The area was also very safe which is a huge priority of ours when traveling.

Good option for budget conscious

We chose this condo based on its close proximity to IMG academy (1 mile away) and the amenities (pool, pickleball, shuffleboard) and an affordable option for The week of New Year’s It served all of those purposes, but the inside of the condo hasn’t been updated since 1980. All pocket doors were broken, shower in second bathroom didn’t work and the pots and pans were so old that a thrift store has a better selection. No salt and pepper in the cupboards and one trash bag for a 6 days. It is affordable, but it’s like staying in an old motel room.

Just okay

The location, pool, hot tub, tennis courts really nice. If you’re particular about your living space, this may not be the place for you. There were many things that needed maintenance, mostly the doors. Our shower curtain was very yellow at the bottom and the toilet had been filled with toilet bowl cleaner but never washed. I am not a super picky person but was disappointed in the cleansliness. Dirty dishes and cups in the cupboard. It really needed someone to go through and give it a good cleaning and organize the cupboards. Lots of half empty containers of soap, Shampoo, etc. The location was great and it was very easy to head out to the beautiful beaches of Ana Maria Island. We would return to this association but not to this specific condo unit.

Spring Break Gem

My family rented this gem for our 2023 spring break. The home was clean, nicely decorated and had all the amenities you could want. It was located just 6 miles from beautiful Anna Maria Island. The neighborhood was safe and quiet. Maria was extremely responsive to answer any questions we had or to take care of anything that we needed. We would stay again and we definitely recommend it to others!

The place was not accurately listed.

Would have not stayed here if accurately listed on vrbo. Not big enuff for my family. Not a livingroom for relaxing after long day and showed 2 twins and full bed in 2nd bedroom. (Which it did not.) Needs a good deep cleaning. Also people upstairs were partying until 2am in the morning.

Just what we needed

Two nights here was just what we needed. Not really near the beaches, especially during the hight traffic times of spring break, but that was to be expected. Amenities in the unit were as described and helpful. The only complaint we might have was the low water level in the little creek behind the unit. We were looking forward to having our coffee out by the water in the mornings, and it was rather unattractive with low, murky water. Maybe that's just the time of year. However, there were still plenty of ducks and birds to enjoy on the property.

Quick stop

We were at Maria’s for just one night and had no issues! It was very easy to get in and out, which we greatly appreciated. We made sure to enjoy the mini coffee bar she had set up and took our coffees out on the little patio, before we headed out! Everything was very clean and met our needs for the evening. Thank you!

The property was just fine. The condo was cozy.

The condo was very nice. The only trouble was the bed was very uncomfortable so we didn't get much sleep. Also the only tv we could get to work was in the room where the daybed was. We did have a wonderful time at my Aunt Beth's 90h birthday party.
