Perfect beach stay

This house is clean, well-equipped, and most importantly sits on a gorgeous beachfront spot. We loved sitting out on the deck and watching the sun set and literally walking down the steps to the beach. Toddler friendly too: easy to close off the open living space and steps to a Publix. Would happily stay here again.

Best location on Anna Maria.

The location was spectacular. Right on a private beach, close to the grocery store and short golf cart ride from everything on the island. The house cleaning side did have a few issues (no trash bags, no dish soap, only one partial roll of toilet paper in each bathroom, dirty hand prints on the front door and bathroom doors), but I’m certain the management company will get those issues fixed. Overall, a very enjoyable stay. Everyone in the family had a great time.

Nice home, great location, house smells

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the home and location but the house smells terrible. It hits you when you walk in but think that maybe it's just been closed up and needs air but it doesn't go away. When we got home and unpacked we had to wash everything we took , coats, hats, everything, even if we didn't wear it. We got to thinking what we were breathing all week , mold ? Smell definitely needs to be investigated. Wouldn't recommend until that is addressed.

Amazing vacation. Perfect

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Frank's Beach House exceeded our expectations. It was fully stocked, clean, and you could tell they spent a lot of time (and money) making sure it was comfortable and used a lot of high end finishes.The location could not have been more perfect. Private beach spaced apart from public access points but still within walking distance to several ice cream shops and restaurants. We will definitely be coming back for many years.

Fabulous beach front getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect home on a gorgeous stretch of beach. The owners were very kind and accommodating to our family needs! The screened in porch was a game bugs at night! We slept with sliding doors open and listened to the sounds of the waves all night long. The kitchen was big and spacious. It had everything we needed to prepare ocean side dinners. Lastly, the sunsets cannot be beat.
