About this property

Closer to the beach does not work: comfortable apartment at ground level on the beach.

ATTENTION: We rent with 1 week minimum: Saturday to Saturday
Old Florida Feeling: bungalow right on the beach on level - d. H. no trepidation to the beach. Unit 3 with a bedroom, kitchen bathroom is on the garden side (20!Meters to the beach :-) with a beautiful terrace in the garden with a pavilion and fountain. The beach lovers are on a quiet side street - you hear no traffic, only the waves.
If you are looking for vacation away from the hustle and bustle with stunning beach and great evening Sonnenutergängen, you are right on the Gulf of Mexico. And there on Anna Maria Island: Connected to the mainland by two roads.

Perfect location!

Wonderful apartment with a great location. The only reason for the 4 vs 5 stars is that the water (shower) never got above warm & the king bed was very loud.

Great location

Everything was as stated in the description and pictures. This property has 4 units, two face the ocean and two face the street side “garden”. We stayed in unit #3 at the garden side, but it was just a few steps to the beach. We enjoyed the beach at the property but also took trips to Beam Point, as the water was clearer and calmer there. Would definitely come back in the future.

Pure Bliss

The property is exactly as described, steps from the beach, quiet neighborhood...The unit consists of four "apartments", two face the gulf, two face the very quiet courtyard. We were in a courtyard unit, just steps away from the beach. It's so perfect, we had people asking for information regarding the property! The kitchen has plenty of plates, glasses, cookware, very clean! We arrived after the rental company was closed, very easy check in process. We're definitely renting again.

Beach lovers

This was our first time staying at this property. It was very clean, well stocked kitchen dishes, pots and pans. Very nice bathroom which was well ventilated for steam, nice linens. Perfect location to stores and restaurants. The T.V. Quit working but was quickly repaired in a day. The only negative was the couch- needs to be replaced. We very much enjoyed our stay.

Not gulf view

For the price we paid, we expected a gulf view. It is a nice location, close to the water, but there is no view. The couch was very uncomfortable to sit on to watch tv. We had issues with the microwave touchpad and also the tv. The realty company is very nice and tried to help with issues but not completely solved.
