March stay

The condo unit was very nice and clean. Everything we needed for the beach was provided for our use, and even more than we needed. Very close access to the beach, grocery and a few restaurants.

Amazing location

Wow! This was the closest to the Beach we have ever stayed …literally steps. Mom is almost 80 and had no trouble getting to the beach. Sitting on the balcony felt like we were on the beach without the sand! Pool is nice and so clean. Loved it so much we booked next year. Highly recommend!

Home was exactly as described. It was incredibly clean, well stocked with everything you need, and the location was unbeatable. Great sunsets right from the balcony, the pool was well kept, and the building was quiet. We also really appreciated the covered parking! Would absolutely rent again.

Wonderful Condo & Great Location

My husband and I rented this cute condo for a much needed week of rest, relaxation, and sun. The condo was very clean and was appointed with everything we needed. The only hiccup we had was the internet password was changed and we were given the old one in our check-in email however that was just a quick phone call and was straightened out in minutes. We loved the view from the porch overlooking the gulf. Sunsets were beautiful. We would definitely go back again.

Our favorite vacation home - ever!

We had a memorable and unforgettable time staying at AMI Dreaming! Everything about this vacation home was just wonderful. The views from the balcony are spectacular, and you can see the stars at night from the master bedroom window. The location is perfect, and not too far from any restaurant, store or activity on AMI. Ther condo is lovely, very clean and complete with a modern well-stocked kitchen. The property has a lovely pool, as well as being just steps from the beach. Having an elevator was ideal, as we are a mid-60's couple, with one of us having occasional difficulty with stairs. We enjoyed many special times on the balcony viewing all kinds of wildlife, including dolphins, ospreys and dragonflies, as well as spectacular sunsets and moonsets. We already have booked our return for Spring, 2024, and hope to return again many times beyond!

AMI DREAMING 105

This condo was wonderful! Clean, updated and spacious. The proximity to the beach was great! And the views were spectacular! My only negative was the water pressure in the showers and the master bedroom mattress was a little lumpy. We would definitely rent here again! Rental agency customer service was great.

Horrible vacation!

We were looking forward this family vacation but unfortunately were surprised how bad this property is... Pictures on the rental website were taken probably 10 years ago, in reality you get extremely worn out filthy unit with heavily stained chairs, couch and carpet. Floors were unwashed, whole kitchen sticky, toilets extremely worn out, bathtub was stained... We rent beach houses often and have never had to deal with this kind of dishonest people.

Excellent location

The location is perfect walk out onto beach. Pool nice size. Hiccup when we first arrived Saturday night kitchen area flooded with water. All was taken care of by Monday and the property management co gave us a nice gift card for our inconvenience. Rest of the week superb! This condo was equipped with everything you could need!! Made staying in and cooking some meals a joy. Would absolutely stay here again. Everyone is friendly and family oriented.

AMI Family Getaway

This was out first time staying at AMI. It is such a beautiful little island. We loved the condo. It had everything we needed and more. It is nearly footsteps from the beach. The only downside I saw was you are right next to the public beach access area so be prepared for it to be pretty busy on some days. The condo was very low key and not busy at all. Some days we had the pool all to ourselves. We rented a golf cart to cruise around Anna Maria Island each evening. We were able to park our rental car and golf cart in our alloted spot. The only thing we could not figure out was how to work the television in the first bedroom. I emailed the property rental company and they said a technician would be out to fix it, but we never did figure out how to turn it on and access cable. Minor issue for a wonderful rental. We will definitely be back!
