Great stay

This house and the location was just great. The beautiful beach was just a two minute ride with the bikes. Only the outdoor furniture could need a Little refresh but That was no reason to be worry about. Great vacation rental…!

Super!

House was very clean and smelled nice. Beautiful property that was as advertised. Really enjoyed being on the corner of the canal. Management was in touch on a couple of visits by needed maintenance and was very professional. Overall excellent stay, just went by too fast!!

We loved the relaxed style of the house and felt that it was a perfect location; on the water and close/ walking distance to many local dining spots/ shops and beautiful beach. The pool area was excellent, well supplied with loungers / dining area and table tennis. The high temperatures in Anna Maria meant that we spent a lot of time in the pool. So pleased we had our own. The grounds to the house were also immaculate. We had a fabulous holiday - didn't want to leave …..

Kitchen could have had more cooking supplies, better pool instructions, use of golf cart, screen door was ripped in back of house, kayaks to use in canal, lacked a lot of things especially for the price. Bathrooms need updated.
