Thanks for choosing Beach Breeze by AMI Locals, and we hope to see you back on the island again soon!

So happy to hear you had a great stay, Dede! We’re glad Beach Breeze by AMI Locals was the perfect fit for your group and that the location made it easy to enjoy everything the island has to offer. Having plenty of space for everyone makes those trips even better. We’d be thrilled to welcome you back anytime!
Beach Breeze was an adorable bungalow with plenty of beds for our extended family. It had the charming colors of an island beach house-just what we wanted. So close to the Gulf but also off of the busy streets. Very clean and as described. The only small miss on the description is the spa or hot tub. Definitely a nice hot tub but there are no jets so not sure if it qualifies as a spa. The pool was perfect temperature and size. Love the front porch rocking chairs for sitting in the morning with coffee. Great for grandparents and grandkids!!

Thank you so much for the kind review of Beach Breeze by AMI Locals, Ruthane! We love hearing how well the home worked for your whole family from grandparents to grandkids. Those front porch rocking chairs with a morning coffee really are a little slice of island life. We appreciate you pointing out the note about the spa. You’re absolutely right, it’s best described as a hot tub, and we’ve updated the wording to make that clearer for future guests. So glad you enjoyed the pool, location, and that charming beach house feel. We’d love to welcome your family back anytime for easier, memory-filled island days!
Overall, the beach house was super cute and clean. You certainly can't beat the location! We did have some issues, however. The only access points to the pool through the house are through the master bedroom and another bedroom. The pool had tiles falling off the walls. The beach chairs were very worn and we had some issues with falling backwards into the sand. Truly, the good outweighed the not so good.

Thank you for staying at Beach Breeze by AMI Locals, Kelly! We’re so glad you loved the home’s charm, cleanliness, and that unbeatable location — that’s what island getaways are all about! We appreciate you sharing your feedback as well. The layout, including bedroom access to the pool, is reflected in the listing photos, but we understand how that setup may not be ideal for every group. We’ll also be addressing the pool tiles and taking a look at the beach chairs to get those refreshed. Thanks again for your thoughtful feedback. We’re happy to hear the good outweighed the rest and we’d love to welcome you back for another fun, easy island stay!
Our family stayed for one week and loved every minute! The house was clean, pool and hot tub were amazing. Restaurants and shops were close enough to walk. Short walk to the beach - perfect! Thank you!

Hello
Everything was perfect, very clean, well located.
Easy to communicate with the agency and easy check in/out process. 200 feet from the beach and all shopping.
Will definitely book again, I would just advise to replace the master bedroom mattress not very comfortable
Will definitely come back

We had a fabulous stay in AMI. The house was as described, small but all that we needed for our family if 6. It was a perfect location, a very short walk to beach and shops. House was clean and cute. We'd love to see more beach buckets and shovels, but loved having the chairs and wagon. We'd also suggestotw hooks outside for towels and wet bathing suits. Overall, a great stay!
Amazing first time in AMI. Couldn’t have picked a better location! Quiet beach only a couple of blocks. Precious free library book house across the street. Fresh donuts and coffee out the back gate and shops and pier within walking distance. Another perk was the Sandbar restaurant right down the beach... oysters for lunch and strawberry Collins at sunset ! Amazing vacation... thank you AMI!! Just what these mountain kids needed.

Thanks so much for your wonderful review, Leslie and David! We are so happy you enjoyed everything about the home and your stay on AMI. We hope you'll come back again soon!
The home was in a fabulous location! Unfortunately there was house construction next door the entire week, which made it hard to hear while using the pool! Toilet and ice machine were broken but fixed within the day we called. Wish there had been a few more supplies in the home—-salt/pepper; coffee filters; dishwashing detergent, etc.

Renee, we appreciate your feedback about the location of the home. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the construction noise next door; we understand how it can affect the enjoyment of the pool. We're glad to hear that the issues with the toilet and ice machine were promptly fixed after you called.
Your suggestions about having additional supplies like salt/pepper, coffee filters, and dishwashing detergent are valuable, and we'll share them with the property owner for consideration. Thank you for choosing this property, and we hope to host you again in the future with an improved and more enjoyable stay.
This house is situated on a quiet street and literally 4 houses from the beach!! The location made it worth the stay if nothing else did!! We had kids ranging from 2-9 years old and a 17 year old. There was hardly any traffic on our road or crossing to get to the beach. My only drawback was the guest bedroom with the king bed is really tight and that second bathroom is also small. However, neither is a deal breaker. I'd stay there year after year!! Living area is very spacious as well as the master. Overall, we absolutely LOVE this place and AMI!!

Kasi, thank you for your families visit to the island! We're so happy you enjoyed the pristine beach and endless views as much as we do. We hope you have the chance to visit us again You were fabulous guests.
This place is very close to the beach and restaurants. Can walk to a lot of places. Just be aware that they are VERY picky about parking on the island. We parked in what we “thought” was the driveway in front of the house (off the road) and we got a parking ticket. The driveway beside is very skinny. It says it can hold 4 cars but they would have to be super tiny. We could barely get our 3 cars in back far enough. Just be aware!!
Everyone Enjoyed the pool and the hot tub!!!

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us, Kim. We are glad you enjoyed the home and convenient location. You were terrific guests, and we hope to welcome you all back again soon!
We had a great time! Best part is the closeness to the beach, The Sandbar and Ginny and Jane’es. We were a little disappointed in the size of the house. The pics were a little off. We really needed one more bedroom but we survived! Our needs were met after contacting the concierge. Some small maintenance needs but unless the renters notify them, they can’t fix it! Thank you....

Angela, thanks so much for your stay. Our guests experience is our priority and we appreciate your feedback. We are relieved to know the situation was resolved. We hope to have the pleasure of hosting you again.
The property is in a great quite location on Anna Marie Island. Property is WAY over priced for what you get, but it’s supply and demand and people wanna get somewhere and it’s spring break!
The whole check in and out was very efficient, property was clean, but just way over priced.

Prices are always changing due to supply and demand as you mentioned. The beach and island experiences are extrememly popular.

We had a great vacation and enjoyed the house and it’s location to the beach and Pine Ave. The only negative to the house was having to walk through the master bedroom to get to the pool and guest house.

Morgan, thank you for your past stay with us and happy to hear you enjoyed your location by the pristine beaches. We hope to have the pleasure of hosting you again!
Only thing not making my impression excellent is that the hot tub didn't work properly, the only times it came close to working properly was after the pool was cleaned, once on Saturday and once on Tuesday, the rest of the time only one jet worked

Thank you Robert for your past stay! We are so sorry to hear the hot tub was having problems. We invite you back again to visit us. The island is waiting for your return.
This place was perfect for our family of 9. The extra room off to the pool worked perfect for my parents which go to bed earlier than the rest of us. Very short walk to the beautiful beaches and the pool/deck area was great to relax in the evenings. The donut shop in the back was great along with all the neat shops that are in walking distance. I would certainly suggest this property to a friend and use in the future. I don't have anything negative to say about this property, but you better watch out for people randomly parking in your area to get to the beach.
We really enjoyed the house and it’s location but feel it’s more expensive than comparable properties. We usually stay 2 months for the price of this one for just a month.
Perfect location! House was as described and photographed. Very short walk to the beach with beautiful sunsets. The pool and hot tub was awesome. However, the pool pump is a bit noisy especially if you are sleeping in the back bedroom. Would definitely return!! Great company to rent from!
