The property is a perfect blend of clean, quiet and convenient. The location couldn't be better. The price was perfect to get us in and create an awesome value. We couldn't have been happier. The AMI staff might well be the friendliest, best communicators in the business!

Family trip
Overall we loved our stay. The property was in the perfect location, it was so nice having everything there that we needed for the beach. We did have some issues that we contacted the property manger about that were never resolved which was pretty upsetting.

Great place for a couple or maybe a few kids. The duplex was spotless. Lit pool at night. Have fake grass in the back which is great. Nice landscaping. There ae some beach toys, a few beach chairs and a wagon. They are the low sitting chairs. I prefer sitting higher but then again I'm older. Place feels safe to be in.
Suggestions. Bring extra garbage bags, laundry detergent, any condiments you may need. There are enough flat ware, plates and bowls for about five people. There is a decent grill out back but you will need your own grilling stuff plus something to clean the grill. It was pretty messy. I wasn't grilling myself, but you might. Bring a ROKU if you have it and any passwords for Disney and things like that.. TV is the only weak spot. There is a Public grocery store within walking distance. A bit pricey but Walmarts are a few miles down the road.
All in all, this is a great place. Would consider it again. Beach is an easy stroll and it is fantastic.
Top restaurant for me was Watertown. A little high but great food.

Really liked location but our unit was rough. Walls were marked up, trash in kitchen wasn't emptied, and no place to put clothes. Contacted rental company and requested trash bags, and 1 extra roll of TP. They dropped off extra trash bags but said they only allocate 1 roll for a 5 day stay. Seemed petty. Also told them their was a half dead bug (beetle or cockroach) in main room and missing a TV controller. No response. Just expected more for the price. Needs some TLC.

The property and overall set up of the rental is very nice. Almost as if you have your own pool in the back yard and great lounge furniture. It’s a short walk to the beach and overall good location. But it’s way too expensive for what it is. Some of the items in the ( very small )unit were cheap- such as a shower curtain that fell off and a coat rack that fell out of the wall. It sleeps 4 but has only dishes for 2 I would say. Again, I was paying a lot of money for 2 nights and therefore expected much more.

Great little place. Location is wonderful...quiet, felt very safe, easy walk to everything...beach, grocery, coffee, restaurants. Bedroom is very tight, no closet or dresser, have to squeeze around suitcases to get in and out of bed, but living area, kitchen area and outdoor areas are wonderful and plenty spacious. We would definitely stay here again.

Super cute little place… But overpriced for what it was. As soon as you open the door you can smell mold or some kind of wet smelly mouth popping me all weekend. The dryer did not work so we cannot properly clean our clothes like we had expected. Strange things were happening in the backyard… They were having photo shoots continuous during the weekend we counted at least 10 different women having photo shoots in the backyard where we felt we couldn’t be around the pool because we would get in their way. Very strange

Beach getaway
We enjoyed our last minute getaway to Anna Maria Island immensely. The whole trip from booking to departure was seamless and we didn't encounter any issues whatsoever. The place itself was amazing. We couldn't have had a better trip and we are anxious to get away again very soon!

Clean. Great backyard and pool. Great location (one block to the beach, restaurants, grocery, and pharmacy). Main drawback was the kitchen. Not practical, designed for aesthetics and not use.

A terrific little place ❤️
The 5 stars say it all... great location to the beach and island, a very clean, bright and cheerful accommodation. An outside shower, hose, or faucet to rinse sandy beach feet off and some more places to hang clothes or put clothes away would make the Starfish #6 perfect.

Beautiful place
This place looked exactly how it did in the pictures. It was clean and the property managers reached out to me and responded back to every text. The property itself had everything I needed for a quick beach trip! It was a perfect place to stay and I will definitely be going back in the future!

Perfect Beach Getaway!
The Perfect Beach Getaway for my husband and me! Central location to everything. Block to beach, block to grocery store. Trolley is around the corner and takes you up and down the whole island.
We stayed in the Starfish #6 everything we dreamed it would be. Perfect little villa with all amenities and a beautifully landscaped backyard.
Lisa was an amazing host and quickly answered any questions!
We hope to come back soon! Next time with our children!

Vacation Oasis
Words are hard to find to describe how amazing our stay was at the Starfish through AMI Locals. The property is a beautiful oasis that is well maintained, clean and very inviting. There was ample space to entertain even with other guests staying on the same premise, all well still feeling private.
The property is only 2 short blocks away from the beach access (prob about a 3 min walk). There were beach towels for us to use, chairs and umbrellas that were kept neatly in a chest in the backyard to take to the beach. Then after a long day a jump in the heated pool was always a nice way to unwind.
Lisa the property manager made herself available to us at any time we needed anything. Small quantities of basic necessities such as dish soap, paper towels and toilet paper were provided however after you use up what's provided, you must buy on your own.
We're already trying to plan our next trip back to Anna Maria through AMI Locals again! Thanks so much to AMI Locals for making our girls trip one of the best EVER!
