A perfect little cottage just a block from the beach! It was super clean, nicely decorated, and had everything we needed, including beach chairs and umbrellas and a wagon to pull it all. The kitchen had every thing we needed for cooking meals. The little pool is big enough for adults to cool off in, and for the kids to play in. Thank you for the wonderful review! We're delighted to hear the cottage was the perfect fit for your beach getaway. It's great to know you enjoyed the easy walk to the beach, the well stocked kitchen, and all the beach gear that helped make your days on the sand even more enjoyable. We're also glad the pool provided a fun spot for the kids and a refreshing place for the adults to unwind. We appreciate you choosing Once Upon A Beach and would love to host your family again on a future Anna Maria Island vacation! ☀️🏖️🌴🏡💙

The house was very clean, and the home itself is calming and thoughtfully furnished. A Very Wonderful surprise was the split king adjustable bed in the first bedroom, a true game changer for people like me with back issues! I somehow hadn't realized that there were 2 separate, full bathrooms, another nice surprise. The beach is just a quick walk, and the home is in a nice residential area close to everything. There's a hangout space out front with Adirondack chairs, a hammock, and a BBQ with an extra propane tank in case it runs out (a nice touch!) It's private and shielded from the road with foliage; a great place to sit and chill. The back patio pool was plenty for our party of 4 to dip, play and cool off, and has both sunny and shaded areas. Lounge chairs and a dinette table for 4. We come to AMI twice a year and have stayed at many places… this will be my go-to from now on… 5 stars! Thank you so much for this incredible review! We are thrilled to hear that the home exceeded your expectations and provided such a relaxing and comfortable stay. The split king adjustable bed has quickly become a guest favorite, and we're especially happy it helped make your vacation more enjoyable. It's wonderful to know you appreciated the thoughtful touches throughout the property, from the private outdoor living spaces and pool area to the backup propane tank and convenient beach access. Our team works hard to create an experience that feels both comfortable and effortless, so hearing those details stood out means a great deal. As returning visitors to Anna Maria Island, your compliment that this will be your "go-to" home moving forward is truly the highest praise we could receive. Thank you for choosing Once Upon A Beach, and we can't wait to welcome you back for your next island getaway!
