A private guest house with its own entrance includes a studio-style layout complete with a king bed, full bathroom, and fully equipped kitchen—ideal for extended family or friends seeking a little extra privacy.

The master bedroom features a king-sized bed and en-suite bathroom in addition to an upper level private deck and seating to enjoy the water views. Guests staying in this bedroom may also access the backyard and pool from a spiral staircase. The other two bedrooms in the main house also feature king sized beds, one with direct access to the covered breezeway in the front of the home and an en-suite bathroom which is also accessed from the hallway. The final king bedroom is located on the second floor and a hall bathroom is located nearby. Each bedroom includes crisp linens and plush towels in the bathrooms from our professional linen service. Your guests will stay connected with complimentary WIFI and enjoy all of the comforts of home, including a washer and dryer.

The outdoor space is truly a highlight, centered around a private heated pool and spa with built-in lounge chairs for soaking up the sun. After a beach day, rinse off in the private outdoor shower or use the foot wash stations before relaxing in the covered poolside lounge and rec area, outfitted with a foosball table and TV. There's also ping pong, cornhole, puzzles, games, and books to keep everyone entertained.

Upstairs, the second-level deck offers patio dining for six, while the ground level features an additional outdoor dining area and picnic table. A gas grill is ready for cookouts, and beach essentials—including towels, chairs, and a wagon—are all provided for your convenience. With driveway parking for up to four cars, this home has everything you need for a laid-back, fun-filled island escape.

Back to Blue is easy walking distance to many shops and restaurants, and less than a block to the free island trolley, which travels the entire length of the 7 miles of the island.

Perfect beach week

This was our first time at AMI and did not know anything about the area. It was so wonderful to see what an excellent location we had! Back to Blue was an incredible find. Easy walk or bike ride to Bean Point, the Rod and Reel Pier, as well as Bayfront Park and Pine Avenue. The house itself was gorgeous and modern, immaculate and 5 stars all the way. The pool was lovely and we enjoyed all the thoughtfully arranged seating areas. We would happily stay here again!

First AMI trip

The house is great. The location is perfect with the beach access a very short walk away. The furnishings of the house were very nice and comfortable. The decorating was very pretty. We all enjoyed the outdoor area with the pool and yard games. The set up with the bedrooms and suite worked perfectly for our group of 4 couples. We rented golf carts and enjoyed using those. We would definitely stay in this home again.

Perfect location

This is one of the best houses we have state din on Anna! We could walk to rod and reel pier or the beach. It was a quiet end of the island! The backyard is beautiful and they have everything you can think of to have fun. The house was clean and new and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again. Also the rental company was so responsive and helpful.

Enjoyed our stay!

The location of the house is perfect. The pool and spa were very nice. The overall experience was great! Bean point beach and the rod real pier are great and within short walking distance! We seen dolphins from the master balcony at the house twice and from the pier once. Alcohol is not allowed on beaches on AMI. This was not a deal breaker for our group but a good thing to share with people considering the area. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Exceeded expectations

This home is so beautifully appointed that you will think you are walking into a model home. The kitchen has everything. The bedrooms are gorgeous and beds are comfy. There is an upstairs and downstairs living area so everyone can spread out. The pool and patio are modern and perfect for all day and all night lounging. The kids loved the foosball, ping pong table, corn hole. The bay views from the upstairs windows are stunning. Overall a wonderful home!

Back to Blue

We had a great time at Back to Blue. Perfect location to bean point, Rod and Reel pier and all the shops. The house had everything we needed from beach chairs, towels, and linen. The only issue we had was the hot tub did not work and gave us error codes each time we tried to turn it on. We had exceptionally warm weather so it didn't fully break our hearts.

As advertised

What you see is what you get - comfortable, clean, spacious in a great location. Very quiet. Nice backyard and pool. We would definitely rent again. Only heads up for other renters is that paper supplies and cleaning supplies, soap, etc very limited. Have to bring all you own basically if you stay for more than a day. No tissues or laundry detergent. Not a big deal but would have been good to know.

Wonderful Place and Location

We had a great trip with our family of 7. Plenty of rooms for everyone, beautiful outside space with easy access to bean point beach ( 2 min walk), pine st, rod and reel ( half block away). Pool is large with hot tub and outside space was great with yard games, dining areas, and space to play. In-law suite was perfect, great decoration, modern decor and had a very new feel. We rented bikes to get around the island and if you can order a golf cart another easy way to get around the island. Overall, I would stay here again and recommend for families and friends alike. Similar to other comments, supplies are limited such as toiletries, salt and pepper etc. If you plan ahead not a problem as we had groceries and supplies delivered from Publix. Great stay!

Very nice place

The place is obviously spectacular. So this is a very critical review. Main kitchen fridge should be counter depth. You kind of laugh about it at first as a small issue, But after a while it gets annoying. Would be nice if they at least had some salt and pepper as a staple, but there is literally nothing. Fridge filter seemed really old, but there is another fridge.. Lots of devices set on eco mode. (Ice makers, A/C) but lots of easy ways to work around. Overall: 9.5 / 10.

Excellent Stay of Christmas

We enjoyed our stay at Back to Blue. The house is a great size and the layout of the bedrooms worked out well for our group of 6. A few things to note: the listing says it has a "heated" pool; however, it uses a heat pump which is not the same as a "heated" pool where it is run by gas and you can adjust the temperature. The heat pump is dependent upon the ambient temperature of the air. We were not told about this until a few days before we arrived. As it was chilly over Christmas, the pool water was also quite chilly so we were not able to enjoy the pool, and the "hot" tub was certainly not hot!. Also, this house has many doors that exit to the outside of the house/pool and as such, have alarms on them which is the law in Florida. I think door alarms is something that should be noted in all Florida listings for those of us not accustom to the law! We eventually got used to hearing them go off :)

Back To Blue

The quality of furnishings in this rental exceeds anything I have experienced in the past. Everything is new and well maintained. The appliances work flawlessly and they are great quality Samsung equipment - that goes for the TV's too. The pool and hot tub were really enjoyable, as is the astroturf in the yard. Location is fantastic - 2 minute walk to Bean Point, even less to Rod and Reel pier - even the city pier is just 10 minutes walk. This house was way more than I needed, but I am so happy I stayed here.

girls annual trip

this house exceeded out expectations. It is amazing, it has everything you can wish for and more. The house itself was beautiful, from decor to furniture (and more) it has it all!!! Kitchen was amazing to cook in, or order out from and eat in. Location to the beach was perfect, but if you do not want the beach the pool was amazing. Big enough for 7 adults to not feel like they were on top of each other, with plenty of seating in the pool as well. If you needed shade, comfortable seating in the shade was available. Walking distance to Rod N Reel, as well as Pine Street. Plenty of space for us to play cards at night, plus they provided recreation with foosball, table tennis and corn hole. This house is just amazing and we made many great memories here.
