Awesome Multi-generational Family Vacation Home

The listing on VRBO was extremely thorough and accurate. The property was perfect for 11 adults and two toddlers (ages 4-92). The pool area was ideal for family dinners (grills, refrigerators, bars, tables and TVs). The roof top deck with Adirondack chairs was perfect for watching the sunrises and sunsets. The location was awesome - close to the beach, Bridge Street shops, restaurants and bars. The host was very responsive to our questions and inquiries prior to arrival and during our stay. We had the best time!

Great experience and perfect for our family!

We had an amazing time on Anna Maria Island staying at Family Tides! The property is in a perfect location, right next to Bridge Street, a 3 minute walk to the beach and even a short walk to parasailing. This is both convenient and saves on expensive parking. The kitchen's are well supplied which made it very easy for meal planning with a large family. All appliances were modern and in good shape. The pool was clean and perfect for swimming day or night and a great for switch-up from enjoying the ocean. Would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone looking for a great place to stay on Anna Maria Island!

Great Location

Such a beautiful vacation rental! The spacious layout makes it easy for groups to stay and feel like you have your own space but cozy enough to feel like home for the week with all of the essentials. Even if the easy 5 minute walk to the beach isn't your thing, you always have the 3 min walk to Bridge Street with all the shops and restaurants. The backyard with pool was perfect for a relaxing dip after a hot day at the beach. The island itself is beautiful and offers so much as well with plenty of places walking distance and an easy free trolley ride to explore more. We had an amazing time enjoying the house and island with family and friends and cannot wait to come back!

6/10 Okay

Excellent location but needs a few fixes

House is in a perfect location & we enjoyed our stay. Right across the street from the daiquiri deck. Beach steps away. Market store right next door came in very handy for last minute needs. A lot of really good restaurants are in walking distance if you don't want to drive. Being able to rent the entire house was very nice allowing us to have multiple families on the trip. A few things that could be addressed: Cleaning crew could have done better. Floors still had sand on them upon our arrival. I understand sand is hard to get up but I was able to do it using the vacuum that was there. The dryer did not work so we were unable to wash our beach towels which was disappointing (it was even serviced the day after we arrived). The floor tread entering the master bedroom along with a few of the boards in that bedroom need to be replaced. They are raised up so you will stub your toe if you're not paying attention. All bathrooms need additional hooks and rods to hang towels. No where to hang your wet towels and bathing a suits. The pool is nice but lights for at night would make it easier to see. Overall we had a great trip. I would have given 5 stars of it weren't for the issues above.

Becautiful stay

Had a family trip with ages ranging from 60 down to 1 year old! Location is perfect! Many places to walk to for food, drinks and beach! Pool was nice, the outdoor bar area had ceiling fans for evening games and the outdoor shower was nice to have after beach days. We did get bitten by some apparent No see ums even with bug spray they seemed to go for the lower unit guests (maybe we are just sweeter)Beautiful very loud green parrots visited daily we also got some visits from the small lizards, grandson loved them! Towels provided and linens were a nice touch when traveling by plane. We reserved beach items from once upon a beach and they were utilized every day. A memorable vacation with lifetime memories!

Thank you so much for sharing such a thoughtful and detailed review! We’re so happy to hear your whole family—from the littlest to the wisest—had a memorable time. It sounds like you made the most of everything the home and location have to offer—from poolside evenings and beach days to local wildlife and island strolls! 🦜🌴 We’re glad the beach gear and linens made traveling a bit easier and that you were able to create those special, lasting memories. Sorry to hear about the no-see-ums—they can definitely be pesky at times, especially on the lower levels. We’ll be sure to share that feedback with the team. We’d be honored to host your family again for another unforgettable getaway! 💙

Family Tides Delivers Cleanliness and FUN

We loved our stay! It was perfect for multiple families traveling together! The location is superb for beach, Bridge Street dining and shopping. The pool and patio area was private and a great place for after beach swimming and relaxing. The units were clean and Once Upon a Beach was exceptional to work with from start to finish. Will work with them again for sure! The only minor thing is that the property could really use some hooks in the bathrooms and by the door for towels, swim suits etc! Until next year AMI! Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We're so glad to hear the home worked perfectly for your group and that you were able to enjoy the beach, Bridge Street, and time relaxing by the pool together. It means a lot to know you had a great experience working with our team from start to finish. We also really appreciate the helpful suggestion about adding hooks for towels and swimsuits. Feedback like this helps us continue improving the guest experience, and we'll be sure to pass it along to the homeowner. We'd absolutely love to host you again next year on Anna Maria Island! 🌴☀️

Beautiful Home!

The home is lovely and perfect for a family or large group. We were a group of nine girls and each of us had plenty of space between the two units. My favorite part is that it was across the street from the beach access and one street over from a convenience store, shops, restaurants, bars and even a putt putt golf course. We walked everywhere on the island and the only time we used our cars was to go to Publix. The rooftop deck provides an awesome view of the sunrise and sunset or you can watch the sunset on the beach and the sunrise on the pier at the end of the street. The pool and the outdoor space was awesome and the host has tons of beach equipment for you to use (chairs, wagons, umbrellas and sand toys). Everyone in our group loved the house and if we ever go back, we would book this home again.

Great house, few minor personal dislikes

This house is great! However, there were a few personal dislikes (we still would stay here again). You cannot beat the location. Right across the street from the beach, 5 minute walk to the end of the bay pier, direct access to Bridge Street shops and restaurants and only a few minutes from Cortez Public Beach and Manatee Publix Beach. The pool and patio area was amazing. It was a nice place to cool off after a hot day at the beach. It was also nice to have a gated place outside to keep our beach items. Kitchen was stocked pretty good. Rental company was quick to respond, easy to communicate with and very friendly. My little complaints: One the bottom level, the master got all of the air. I don't think any air blew into the guest rooms. We had a box fan, a beside fan and the ceiling fan and didn't sleep with any covers. The upstairs, the guest rooms got the air and the master was hot. This is probably the biggest thing that we had a complaint about. The guest room closets had some storage in them from the company, so there wasn't as much room for our things. The shared bathroom's mirrors were not mounted for 5ft or shorter people, and the only full length mirror was in the master bath. We had issues with the washer in one unit and the dryer in the other, but the company offered laundry service and were quick to bring us fresh towels. Overall the stay was great, and we would stay again!

Perfect location! Our family of 12 had an amazing time. The rooftop deck was an outstanding touch! Perfect views of both the channel and the beach.

Family Tides A and B both units

We have been coming to Anna Maria for 8 or 9 years. Stayed up north side and down on on Bradenton side. Personally I think this may have been my favorite house because I liked the pool I liked the area around the pool. We came with a large group of people so that kept mess down out of house as well as a great gathering place for grilling and hanging out. My brother in law really loved the roof top deck. With all the different areas it gave us enough space to be able to get away from one another. So togetherness with out feeling like you are trapped lol. Anyways the location was great right across road from beach and close to bay close to many restaurants and shopping. With in walking distance I mean. House itself had some cosmetic issues but nothing that I minded. So for a place that had all that it did was able to accommodate a large group of people and wasn't crazy expensive or completely unaffordable for the average families it's a 10 out of 10! Also the house had a lot of beach stuff in a room downstairs and for renting they company gives you credit towards beach gear which was a pleasant surprise we took advantage of. If I had to make a recommendation I would add a water hose to the beach supply room area of ver there to keep sand washed off away from the walking area and be able to rinse stuff off. Great place though also enjoyed working with this company they were very helpful Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review! We're absolutely delighted to hear that this was one of your favorite homes after many years of visiting Anna Maria. It's wonderful to know the pool area, rooftop deck, and multiple gathering spots helped create the perfect mix of togetherness and personal space for your group. We're also glad you found the location convenient and the beach gear credit to be a pleasant bonus! We truly appreciate your feedback about the hose suggestion—that's a great idea and something we'll definitely consider for future improvements. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we'd love to welcome you and your family back anytime!
