Due to recent issues of overcrowding in the area, if maximum occupancy is exceeded during your stay, a $1000 (one thousand dollar) overcrowding fee will be charged to the payment method on file and your party will be immediately evicted. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation to keep Anna Maria Island enjoyable for everyone.

Great location and beautiful home

This second row house is just steps away from the beach and has beautiful ocean views. House is large and comfortable with a two car garage, pool and hot tub, and open floor plan on the main level. Would love to stay here again!

Great for families

The location on a quiet street just a few steps from the beach was perfect! The bedrooms and living room were a generous size. Management was quick to respond to any questions or issues. I would rent this property again!

Breathing views!

We had a great stay at On the Beach! The views were breathtaking and access to the beach was great for our party to go back and forth with ease. The elevator was a bonus to get our luggage to the third floor. The house was stocked with essentials. We can’t wait to come back again!

A Good time is what you make of it😃👍

The location to the beach is wonderfully close! The pool was well taken care of, but don’t say you have a TV by the pool if it doesn’t work or a grill if it has no gas and doesn’t work. Don’t say to let you know if something is broken like the freezer door when according to reviews it has been for a while , . But a good time was had anyway👍 We love the area and have been there many times and this home had the best location👍 The Stouts

Our only problem is that we were told it was accessible for a wheelchair. Well, both doors had a step so luckily we brought our own ramp. The elevator was a huge help.

Beach Bliss

House on the Beach was fabulous! The views were amazing. The home is situated basically ocean front. The bedrooms were comfortable and functional. The open space for family gathering made the trip - big dining space and lots of places to curl up for movie time. Outside area with private pool was bigger than expected and so charming/inviting. We had one issue that was immediately addressed with kindness and professionalism. I will definitely come back. My favorite rental ever!

Great Location and Beautiful House

Very nice overall experience at this property. Location is amazing and the views of the gulf from the master bedroom are truly something unique. Property management was responsive to troubleshooting a heating issue with the pool/spa. Few touch ups and replacements would have gotten a full 5 star review. Queen bed on the 3rd floor was truly uncomfortable to stay on and required additional blankets and a mattress topper we purchased to make it work for our party. Dishwasher and freezer door both are touchy and wouldn't properly close without some finesse and a previous reviewer was correct in a lack of comfortable seating options in the living room. Not ideal for a movie/game night in with family or a large group. Other pros: great water pressure, bikes for use in the garage, and a well stocked kitchen.

Heaven on the beach

As a large family who has had holidays drastically changed by family moving and passing away, we decided to rent this house for Thanksgiving to have a change of pace. We absolutely fell in love. The location simply cannot be beat. Steps away from the beach, to the point I never even bothered to put on my flip flops. The huge windows were amazing for lots of light and amazing beach views. We had ten people staying in the home, and five more over for Thanksgiving dinner. Never once did it feel crowded or uncomfortable. The beds were comfortable, each bedroom having a bathroom was convenient, and my kids having bunk beds was a big hit for the boys. We had to call once about a door sticking and an issue with the grill, and it was handled immediately and to our satisfaction. I can’t say enough about how enjoyable our 9 days have been.

Some essentials would be nice. Shampoo etc. living space is not conducive to poor weather. Could use a little more lounge space. Sectional or other comfortable furniture. Pool area was very nice.
