Amenities are subject to change. Driveway parking is available for a maximum of 2 cars. Additional parking is not available. Salt Water Pools These pools produce water that feels softer to the touch. Contrary to popular belief, saltwater pools do contain chlorine, but the levels of it are lower and the way it's introduced into the water is different than in a chlorine pool. Instead of using chlorine tablets or sticks, salt is added directly to the water and a salt chlorine generator (also known as a saltwater chlorinator) converts the salt into chlorine. You are vacationing in a residential area. Please be a good neighbor by keeping the noise to a respectful level during the day and night. Excessive and unreasonable noise can deprive neighbors of the peaceful enjoyment of their private property. The maximum occupancy is eight.

Everything we needed was within biking distance. I would recommend stopping at one of the larger Publix supermarkets before you get to the island. The one on Anna Maria is small and super crowded on changeover days. The house is as the pictures show. I agree with previous reviews that the showers and tubs could be updated to match the rest of the esthetics of the house. The pool is fantastic to come back to after a hot day at the beach. Management was easy to deal with and always had prompt responses. We needed them to come fix a couple things and they were there within an hour or so. I would definitely come back to Anna Maria and this house again! ##### Jennifer H. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Emily R. 29 Jun 2024 #### Aloha Fern stay Location was good. We enjoyed our stay overall but would not book here again due to the pool. It's a saltwater pool (we have one at home) and the pool was saltier than the Gulf of Mexico. It was not normal. Our children's small skin irritations burned so bad that they weren't able to swim until after 2 trips to the store to find some zinc type cream to block the irritation. Even then the pool is not refreshing, you leave feeling miserably sticky. I called early in our stay and was told nothing could be done. We were so looking forward to refreshing swim after a beach day. Other than this (big to us) issue, the stay was great. ##### Emily R. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gina K. 28 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Home.

I took my mom who has terminal brain cancer. She loved it. The house was wonderful. I couldn't be more grateful for the memories I will always cherish. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/56845f40-b776-4c30-a5ac-790107e56783-1758414644630.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Whitney S.

The pool at Aloha Fern is a real plus with kids. The beach gear was helpful, especially the tent, which was easy to pop up. Plenty of room in the house for our family of 4\. If you like to cook, this kitchen was lacking basic tools. The pans, pots and baking dishes are ready to be replaced. The washer and dryer are very old. It takes 2 cycles to dry a normal size load of clothing and at least 3 cycles to dry towels. Also, construction was happening on both sides of this house. It will be even better when those projects finish. We had a very good stay. ##### Adrienne C.

It is a very short (maybe 2 blocks) walk to the beach for spectacular sunsets in the evening or lounging during the day. The heated pool and spa were used by us almost daily. We enjoyed the lanai and grilled out then played games. The 2 bikes and beach accessories were also lovely to have. There is construction but it was never constant nor did it disrupt us in any way. There were plenty of dishes, utensils, glasses, cookware, and plastic containers for storing leftovers. My only comment is that it would have been nice to have had some non-perishable cooking supplies. Such as salt/pepper, other spices, olive oil, cooking spray, coffee/filters, etc. (I did buy and leave some). We walked, swam, biked, and relaxed daily. The shops were a short walk or bike ride but a lot closed early afternoon. Both piers are a short walk and we utilized the free trolly to go to Manatee beach and Bradenton beach. Communication with AMI rentals was great. I would definitely recommend this place and if we go back to AMI I would book here again. ##### Lori R.

Everything was perfect. Location, clean house, pool and spa. Beach chairs, two bicycles was included, so we used them to see places at the island. Some things we did not liked, it was constraction all around this house, and it was started everyday at 7 am. We had 2 children and this thing was woke up all of us. So when we boked this house, nobody told us to be ready for this. But it is not kind of complaint, because of what we will never visit this place again. I love this island and will buy my own house there one day. Another thing was double bunk bed in third bedroom, we sleeped there two adults with our children and it was not easy. Probably needed one more queen or king bed. And the last thing, I did not liked most, and I saw this first time visiting Anna Maria, it was temperature of hot tub in the evening. During our stay, the pool and hot tub were heating same temperature of 85F max. I did not want to heat pool more, but every time and everywhere I was visiting, the hot tub was operating the temperature whatever we needed. Exactly hot tub. In this case when I called the office and asked how to heat it in the evenings, they said 85F is max for this period and we must pay 100$ more if we need more warm. It is something new for me, but it is also some lesson, to ask questions like this, before booking. When you have cold evening, hot tub is the best thing to relax. But here we had cold tub. But is ok. Experience cost money :) 😃 Anyway... the house is beautiful and I recommend it. ##### Mikola C. Stayed 8 nights in Oct 2022 ---
