The location near the beach is excellent and the house is very comfortable; cleanliness is its weakest point.

For Shore gave our family a week of a wonderful vacation. Loved that we could pop down the block to the beach for the day and catch the evening sunsets. The shaded pool area made for great afternoon and evening swims - we used it every day! The busy road next to the house was a little loud sometimes when we were outside, but didn’t bother us inside the house. The house set up was really good, lots of space for 9 of us. The house and amenities needs some tlc - a good deep cleaning and reorganization of the kitchen. Location was great to beach. We rented a golf cart and zipped around town, never drove the car till we left. The house itself truly is nice.

Great location to beach! House was a bit “worn out”. Master bathroom needs a good deep cleaning. Mold in shower and on the bathroom counter. All other bathrooms were clean, as well as bedrooms.I would stay here again, but request that the master gets a deep clean.

The location was great. It’s a short walk to the beach and right across from the trolley stop. The only negative was the toilets and how they flushed. There was a wagon full of beach supplies in the garage. The kitchen was well stocked. The pool and hot tub was used daily.

Fun For Shore

Great location and house with all amenities needed for the size of our family. Beds were comfortable. We had 1 issue with the sink and dishwasher but it was handled quicky and efficiently. We loved the pool and hot tub. We were impressed wirh the staff at Sato: from booking to check-out everyone was helpful, courteous and kind. AMI has been our vacation location for 5 years and For Shore is our favorite house! The staff at Sato are fantastic!

Great vacay at the beach

Great experience overall. Simple walk to the beach (2 blocks), amazing private pool and nice neighborhood. Only "negative", due to traffic on the main road (located next to the house) you get some noise, but nothing major. I would recommend this house to anyone.

Perfect beach house

The check in/out was super easy! We flew in and stayed for a week. Having known what the house offered beach wise, would have been helpful. They had a wagon ( extremely helpful!), beach umbrellas and chairs, boogie boards and some floats. The house also had beach towels which was great. The kitchen had minimal utensils and dishes,but it was fine. Overall, the location was great with easy access to the beach. The pool was awesome also. It is off the main, busy road, so it could be loud as trucks came by at times. We really enjoyed our stay at For Shore!!

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, Tina. We're glad you enjoyed your stay. Please note, we do not leave a list of beach supplies because they are not guaranteed which is why we don't advertise them. Sorry there were not more utensils in the kitchen. We will look into restocking.

Like the place alot

The stay was great . Only thing we noticed from last year to this year was we didn’t have many towels . Last year we had alot , this year we have 2 big towels per bathroom. We washed towels every day . Very few beach towels also. Kitchen was in good shape but we found it not to be as stocked with things as last year. We loved our stay and would stay again for sure .

Great property, great location close to the beach.

Great overall experience. The property is steps away from the beach and at a nice location very close to the entrance of the island. The pool and hot tub along with outdoor seating was great. We had issues with our A/C and an appliance, and property managers were very responsive to fix these issues during our stay. This property is right along the main road in and out of AMI, so there is a bit of road noise, but it didn’t negatively affect our stay.

Great location to beach

House was very nice. Location to the beach was awesome but to close to busy noisy Gulf Drive. Pool and outdoor was great but sun not on pool this time of year. Wish there was an elevator and better pans for cooking and need plastic bowls and plates for the pool area.
