Reviewer Comments:
The property was clean and well equipped very close to the beach with a beach entrance right across the street. Loved that there was a wagon and beach chairs in the condo making the beach much more enjoyable. There were a couple of restaurants within quick walking distance. There was a trolley pick up across the street and while we didn’t use the trolley it was very convenient to have if didn’t have a car. The only negative was that the air stopped working twice in the condo. The first time the property management team got it fixed right away but it went out again the next day and we did not realize until that evening and being a Sunday night it did not get fixed prior to our departure the next day which made for a pretty uncomfortable night sleeping and morning packing up and getting ready to leave (82 degrees inside).
Host and amenities were very nice. The condo had very dirty floors like they were not cleaned before arrival.

Hi Kelsey,
Thank you for being our guest and for taking the time to leave a review. If you stay with us in the future, please report to us after your arrival that you feel something needs improvements. We never received word from you that you felt like the floors were not cleaned. We would have been happy to send the cleaners back over. The floors were cleaned after the last guest but unfortunately there was a large gap of time between your stay.

The property was excellent! It was spacious with a full kitchen, 2 full bathrooms and 3 bedrooms. It also has a full dining room, living room and screened in balcony porch. The beach is a 5 minute walk across the street, very convenient. The rental has a beach wagon with chairs and an umbrella too. All linens included, even beach towels! Just show up & enjoy! Great rental! We’ll be back and I highly recommend!

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are a bit confused on why you gave it three stars when you wrote all positive remarks.
If you are our guest in the future and there is anything we can do to help you feel like you had a five star stay please let us know! Our goal is for you to have a relaxing top notch vacation!

We had a wonderful Christmas on Anna Marie island. The location of unit is great, close to the beach and easy walking distance of good restaurants. The trolley stop is close by making getting around the island easy and convenient . The beds aren't super conformable and some furniture and decor could use some updating. Overall, I would recommend.

The place was exactly as described on the listing! The layout was great! The location was perfect! Our children had the best time being able to utilize the pool and beach. We also enjoyed the wooden swing at the bay. It was an amazing and relaxing getaway. The only complaint we have is that the queen bed was pretty uncomfortable.. It had a mattress topper on it that wasn’t fitting properly, so at times you celt like you were on a slant. Otherwise, very happy with our stay! Would definitely stay her again! Unfortunately it’s already booked when we want to come back.

Loved it here! The place was clean and tidy! The pictures showed an extra room however there wasnt one.
Every appliance worked. Water was hot (shower water took a bit to go down the drain) and felt amazing after a long day in the heat.
Alot of placea nearby to walk to. Especially the beach and bayside.
Enjoyed it very much!

Hi Whitney,
Thank you for being our guest in Sunflower! We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay! Sorry if there is confusion about the bedrooms, it is listed as 3 bedrooms, 2 bath and this is how many rooms it has. In one of the twin bedrooms, you have the option to push the 2 beds together to make 1 larger bed. The binder and extra bedding for this change is located in the closet.
Please consider us again for future stays!

Great central location on Anna Maria Island! Easy Beach access and great pool and hot tub areas. It was nice to have a choice between a beachside pool and another pool/hot tub on the bayside of the street. Roomy end unit with big living/dining and kitchen area and big screened in lanai. Unit is located right at the top of the steps on the second floor. Elevator available at opposite end of building. Nice and quiet the beginning of January. Walkable to several restaurants and everything at Bridge St. is only a short distance away.

Great place to enjoy some relaxing family time
Loved the place. Not immaculate, but clean enough… I’ve seen worse! Could have been more clear in ad about amenities and where to park. It didn’t specify whether there was a grill (there wasn’t), just said some properties have them, some don’t. The location was fantastic, and the property was well stocked, although it would be nice to provide at least enough shampoo and coffee for the first day (we didn’t arrive until after 11:00 pm). We really enjoyed the hot tub!

Hi Julie,
Thank you for staying with us and for writing a review. We are happy to know that you enjoyed your stay and the pool/hot tub area. We are surprised to hear that you did not feel the clean was adequate. FDR does ask that if there is anything you are concerned about you make us aware the first day, so we have the chance to rectify it, if you stay with us in the future, please feel free to reach out.
The parking instructions are found inside on the counter along with two parking passes for the complex.

My friends and I enjoyed our stay very much. Great location to trolley, beach and we enjoyed the pool and hot tub. I would suggest you being a few rolls of toilet paper, garbage bags, air freshener and Kleenex. We had to buy these on the island. The condo is spacious and comfortable.

Good location, needs updating
It was convenient to the beach. There was no view though of the beach. It was very outdated and the kitchen was ill equipped for cooking. Old appliances. The beds were very hard. We never did find a hose on the building to hose off beach gear. The rental property was helpful when the laundry door fell off but no one ever came to get rid of bugs in the bedroom. We won’t stay here again.

Condo was spacious. Very close to beach. Nice screened in patio. Had to clean the floors. Found broken glass on rug. The rest of the condo was very clean. Definitely need to update all beds. Very uncomfortable. New beds and better cleaning crew it will be a great place to stay
This condo was convenient to a lot of restaurants, things to do, and the beach, and we enjoyed the saltwater pool. Our biggest problem was the 2 twins equal a king claim. The bed frames prevented the mattresses from meeting, and the twin mattresses weren't extra long, so my 6'4" adult son and his wife were not comfortable. I would just stick with calling that bedroom a "2 twin" bedroom.

Hi Barbara,
Thank you for being our guest in Sunflower. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We apologize for any inconvenience if the twin beds were not long enough, we have changed the description to standard size twin beds. The queen bed offered may have been a better choice for your son's height as it is the same length as a standard king bed.
Please consider us again for your future AMI stays!

Overall condo was perfect size and so close to the beach. The elevator was broken so made it hard to get luggage up stairs and beach wagon full of chairs down the stairs without help . The floors were a little dirty but I cleaned them up. Took about 2 days for fridge and freezer to get really cold but worked well after that. Multiple beach chairs , wagon , large cooler and umbrella was available . Parking spot was not convenient and tight so we parked outside which was fine. Very minimal in home so if you plan to cook inside will need to bring all spices , foil etc, along with additional garbage bags . Overall we had a great time. The pools were nice and just a few steps across the road to the beach which was so beautiful. Perfect size for our family of 6. Master bed a little uncomfortable and no pillows cases for the extra pillows so we used clean tshirts .

Hello Valerie,
Thank you for being our guest. We apologize that the elevator was broke during your stay, our team did offer to move you if anyone in your party could not do stairs and you said it would be ok and did not want to move.
Our team responded to your call right away when you reported the fridge wasn't working, we sent a maintenance person and brought a cooler and ice. Maintenance reported it was working but need time to cool down. It is common for it to take refrigerators longer to cool if a guest checked out that morning, the cleaners have it open to clean and then the next guest leaves it open while stocking, especially if it is over filled.
In your check-in instructions there is a portion that explains what is provided for your stay so you can plan accordingly. Due to safety regulations, we do not leave open food products which includes spices.
After speaking with you on the phone, it sounded like you had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the condo and the sunshine.

We stayed at the Sunflower condo in April / May 2023. We had a fantastic stay and couldn't have asked for any more! The location is perfect, right across the road from the beach and the pools are nice and warm for when the kids preferred the pool. The condo is also around a 15 minute walk from Bridge St., which has shops and bars, and there is a bus stop right outside for the free Anna Maria trolley. The condo has everything you could need, the kitchen is well stocked and there are lots of beach equipment such as chairs, tents and toys for kids. The apartment complex was very quiet, which we really appreciated. Florida Dreams were very responsive when I had questions leading up to the stay, and the check in and check out process was very easy.

VRBO and the hosts were amazing - really accommodative and responsive to any questions and issues we had. We had been meaning to travel in May 2025, but due to a serious injury in our party, we moved the trip to October. Florida Dreams Realty of AMI, Inc (or FDR as I call them) were very understanding and supported us in changing our booking to October and any questions we had before and during the rental. We normally stay at Runaway Bay, which is next door to Bradenton Beach Club (BBC), but we needed a place that slept 5 people in 3 bedrooms. Sunflower 220 at BBC fit the bill perfectly. I would recommend some improvements to the fittings in the property though - new furniture in the balcony, as 3 of the chairs couldn't be used (2 had wonky legs due to rust and age and 1 chair had sank in the middle). Master bedroom mattress needs replacing - it had 2 mattress toppers, but that didn't help its comfort factor. A few drawers in the property either got jammed or were wonky. All in all, not a deal breaker, but fixing these things would just level up the property and allow the hosts to charge a higher rate (IMO).Facilities were great, the 2 pools and the jacuzzi - never too busy and got lots of sunshine. And it was nice to have access to the pool on the beach side as well as the bay side and the private walkway to the beach too.Elevator still not working, which is a struggle when you're trying to bring your suitcases up to your apartment, but we managed.
