This house was gorgeous, extremely clean, and only few blocks away from the beautiful beach. The layout was perfect for our group of 8 with everyone having ample space and privacy. The 5 bedrooms were roomy, all with king beds, dressers, bedside tables/lamps, and closets. We used the large pool everyday (cleaned twice during our week's stay). And for our beach outings, we were lucky to find beach chairs and umbrellas in the garage.The kitchen was huge with all necessary dishes, pots and utensils. Other amenities that we happily utilized were the gas grill, laundry room and TVs in all the rooms. The dining table easily accommodated our large group for game nights. Also, the hosts were great and very responsive - easy to reach before the trip with questions and during our stay via convenient text communication. If I had to offer a constructive note for the suggestion box, it would be to maybe in the future, add handrails going into the pool. Also, this may be useful for some - all entrances did require steps, but the steps were very wide, sturdy and had nice handrails. My 86-year-old mother did not have any trouble getting around at all. This was our first time on Anna Maria Island, and it was perfect. My family (all traveling from different parts of the country) gathered here to attend a wedding in the Bradenton area and we decided to turn this into a week's vacation. We would gladly come back to stay in this house again.

Very close to the beach. Everything was as described, but for this dollar amount would have preferred (2) 3 bedrooms in same condo association on the beach. The savings would cover food for the week maybe. The beds were on wooden bases, with outshoots just right for shin height trauma at night, and seem a bit creeky soft. The pool was great for the kids.

Excellent communication. Beautiful property. Would stay again. Very well-appointed kitchen. Nice beds and showers. Lovely pool and spa area. It was nice there were games, puzzles, and books as well as some beach chairs etc. Comfy large areas for seating in living and dining areas. Recommended to hosts it would’ve been exceedingly helpful to have more than two kitchen towels in such a big house as well as large pump shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in the 4 bathrooms!

Great place to stay. Rental property very responsive when we had a problem. Would definitely recommend this place. Only one issue is bunk beds right by the steps going down to garage.Only appropriate for older children with steps so near.
