Inaccurate listing
According to the description in the listing the house is “newly renovated” which is completely inaccurate. The stone around the pool has heaved to create large holes that are dangerous. I stubbed my toes badly several times. The tiki hut/bar is in shambles and the top is rotten. The loungers are falling apart. The beach trolly is falling apart. There was no cabinet space for food so we had to put it on the counter. There were so many ants. We had to have the placed sprayed for large cockroaches while we were there. There were dead cockroaches in drawers. We swept up many dead geckos after they sprayed. This place may have been nice several years ago but needs major help. Some windows have electrical tape around them and most of the filthy blinds are inoperable. We stayed at a lovely place hosted by AMI locals in March and almost went back but I splurged for this “newly renovated” house on the “beach block” and neither of those things were true. I felt very deceived, especially since we could have spent half the price and stayed at the gorgeous accommodations we were at in the Spring. The pool and hot tub were nice but no amount of cleaning could keep the debris out of the pool and it was never cleaned up the entire time we were there. We stacked and swept it into piles as best as we could but it blew back into the pool every night. We left after 7 days, which was two days early. I paid to change our flights. Disappointing.

Perfect place for a family with teenagers!
The pool and the very short walk to the beach make for a perfect combination for a family with teenagers! With bike rentals and the trolley our boys were able to roam freely without us. Another hidden gem is close proximity to centerami.org where our boys are able to play pickup basketball a few nights. Our first time to Anna Maria and it is a hidden gem! Not crowded, laid back. A perfect week!

Great property
The house is very spacious and updated. The pool has partial sun in the morning and full sun midday and all afternoon. The walk to the beach could not have been easier. It was super clean and tidy upon arrival.

Perfect Beach House
Perfect beach house for spring break! Me, my husband our three daughters and a friend had a wonderful stay. So close to the beach that it was easy to go back and forth for lunch and such. Make sure you head back to the beach for the sunset at night - stunning!! The pool and hot tub were bigger than they appear in the pictures. The bedrooms were also very large. There were beach chairs, an umbrella and other beach toys in the garage. Very well equipped for the perfect beach getaway!
