House location and outdoor pool area are the highlights. Great space for our family of 5\. House was clean but Finishes on the house are a little worn- faucet handles loose, kitchen faucet sprays to the side when using, back doors were hard to open/close and the paint on the kitchen cabinets is peeling. We would definitely come back but the house does need a little TLC. ##### Karen M. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen S. 7 Apr 2024 #### Villa Maria We were absolutely pleased with this house. Great location, close to everything. We had a group of 4 adults and one 3 yr old child. Very spacious and clean! My wife and I had the upstairs bedroom. Huge and nice. The best part of the house is the pool area. It is a larger pool than most rentals. The pool chairs and furniture were very nice and seemed newer. If I had to find a criticism and this is nitpicking but the main living room couch and chair were uncomfortable but manageable. We will be back! Thanks. ##### Karen S. ### 8/10 Good #### Ashli R. 12 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### January Vacation This property is in a wonderful location! Super close to the beach and the walk was very enjoyable to beaches, shops and restaurants! The home is nicely decorated. The couches, appliances, and outdoor table and chairs need some TLC. One of the stovetop burners does not work and the dishwasher trays could use some fixing. The couch was not very comfortable and the kitchen utensils and cutlery were in poor condition. There were no hot pads as well. Overall this property is nice and the location makes up for it. The pool was super warm which was amazing for our kids because it was chilly out this time of year. ##### Ashli R. Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessica S. 6 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Stay We had a wonderful stay! Walking distance to a few beaches. Recommend renting a golfcart to get the full island experience. Loved the beach chairs and floats. Had a few logistical issues (one involved a stovetop burner that didn't work) but our issues were addressed very quickly. Comfortable beds. As an FYI to future renters, it seems to be a thing that all spices/leftover stuff is discarded. Just know you are starting from zero. No biggie, but good to know for those who like to cook. We would stay here again! Local ice cream delicious. Parasailing fun. Pool a wonderful cool down late in the evening. Outside shower was the best! Sad to leave. Kudos to the maintenance people that helped us. They were super nice and attentive. I highly recommend staying here. Want to give a shout out to Cheryl (?spelling) who was a huge help with logistics and questions. ##### Jessica S. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen Q. 20 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful home This is a beautiful home with an even more beautiful pool area. The location is great, with the beach and bay both a short walk away. It's just one block south of Pine Avenue. However, some furnishings need to be replaced. The rental company did replace the gross coffee pot and disgusting pots and pans. The stove is worn out with only one of the 2 large burners working. But the living room and family room furniture is not only dirty and stained, it's worn out and uncomfortable. I had back pain for a month. It has no support. There wasn't a comfortable place to sit and read a book or watch TV. Even the dining chairs were uncomfortable. We'd love to stay here next year, but would be reluctant unless that furniture is replaced. ##### Karen Q. Stayed 28 nights in Jan 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Maria C., USA 31 Aug 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Nice house with a few issues Villa Maria is a nice house. The location is convinient. It is close to the beach, restaurants, little stores and a lot of other places, plus the neighborhood is peaceful and quiet (although this time, there was a construction near by, that woke us up very early). Upon our arrival we were dissapointed to find a few issues: the house appeared clean but was not done so very well. Some of the kitchen items were dirty, the furniture in the main living room was dirty (stains and overall pretty worn out). The bed comforter in one of the rooms was stained. The mattress cover and the pillows were stained in another room, that should have been replaced. The outside shower was FULL of sand. The pool was dirty. Water was murky and the temperature on it was unpleasant, considering how hot it is, the water was cold enough to be enjoyable. The maintenance on it, was poor. On the house book, it said, the pool was given maintenance twice a week but noone showed up for it until a day before we were leaving. The pool guy told us that maintenance was given only once a week. He tried his best to make it pleasant for us but it was too late, we were already leaving the next day. This was a big dissapointment. We were hardly able to use the pool. In the kitchen one of the main burners did not work. Also, the ceiling fans inside the house were dirty and dust balls were under and behind the furniture all through the house. Overall, the house maintenance was poor. ##### Maria C.

Perfect location to walk to either side of the island. Beach was great! Pool was nice and my boys enjoyed taking a dip each day. Good restaurants within walking distance.

We went to Villa Maria for a family vacation (kids 5 and 7). We had the best stay!!! The pool and backyard were incredible! The house was so pretty and clean. The neighborhood was awesome - peaceful and quiet. Lots is cute restaurants and cafes in walking distance. Every day we hit the beach in the morning and pool in the afternoon! Best vacation ever! Only complaint? No coffee filters! ##### Dawn R. Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan H. 2 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### First-timers to AMI. Loved IT! Villa Maria is spacious and welcoming. The two living areas gave us plenty of space for our group (mom/dad and 4 adult 20somethings to spread out or enjoy gathering together. The pool area is private and secluded. Being at the north end of the island is a little quiet. Restaurants close pretty close early (stay was 1st week of May). The kids would have enjoyed some nightlife, but they could have caught the trolley heading south to find more going on if they wanted to venture out. The beach and bay are just a couple blocks away in either direction, so walking was no trouble at all. The kitchen was great, just missing oven mitts. The beaches here are breathtaking! And just curious…. Why does the powder-sugar sand never get hot?! Crazy! Thanks for a great stay! ##### Susan H.

Also a extra blanket in the bunk rm closest smelled and f strong urine. Other than that it was a nice place. ##### Kim c.

The house is just renovated, very tastefully done with clean lines, beachy feel, very comfortable. Perfect location, short walk to the beach, close to the shops and grocery stores. We just had a few small issues. We had a big black snake living in the pool area, which creeped us out every time we walk outside, it was there. But I guess it is a natural thing in warmer climate. The other issue we had is a hairdryer. We messaged the manager before the trip to make sure it was one in the house and when we got there, we couldn’t find it. We contacted them again and they said they will get one for us, but we never received it. Just small things, but something to address. Overall it is a beautiful house with a perfect location! Thank you! ##### Michael a.
