Location was great..could see the Bay from the balcony and the beach was a 3 block walk. Close to everything- however we rented a golf cart for the week so that made getting around 100% easier. Neighbors we encountered were all very friendly. If I could give recommendations for anything it would be that the bathrooms could use some updates. And the beach chairs werent the best - but we brought our own also. AMI is amazing and we had the best time and will be back. ##### Jesse G.

Stayed 14 nights in Oct 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Wendy J. 22 Feb 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Great Location but... The pictures show the property accurately but you miss all the fine details. The location was good. Bay views and breezes. A short 3 block walk to the gulf where the beaches are beautiful. the house itself is spacious and has a great shower (only 1). On our second day the faucet in the kitchen stopped working which was replaced the next day. the kitchen was well equipped. The main bed was extremely soft and low to the ground which didn't work for my husband. He switched he'd to another bedroom and that seemed to work for him. The floors let my feet black and I sent a picture to the manager and never heard back from her. The sink and faucet in the bath were very wobbly which was fixed as best as possible. The pipes under the sink were not correct so the handyman came back again and fixed that. The screened in porch had a torn out screen which was removed and never replaced. Most of the window had no screens and had to be propped up to keep them open. The tile floors were cracked and chipped. The bathroom cabinetry was old and in need of replacement. The garage door opener didn't work properly, but that was fixed also. Out door lighting was askew. The stairs heading down to the grill had feces on them. the screened in porch had outdoor debris inside that wasn't swept out. the fence in the side yard was broken down and laying in the neighbors yard. The tv and internet was spotty at best. Outside needed a good cleaning also. Good Luck if you rent. ##### Wendy J.

We are only three blocks from the beach. There was a tent that everybody fit under to block the sun at the beach, a wagon, & plenty of chairs. The beds were all very comfortable. And I’m pretty picky when it comes to beds. But I slept great. The outdoor porch was good it was screened in. Everybody enjoyed the hammock. The neighborhood was wonderful everybody felt safe. And Anna Maria Island was great we loved it! ##### Valerie D.

One of the doors to the front balcony wouldn’t shut properly nor lock. During our week long stay we had to prop a dining room chair against the door to keep it shut. Reached out about the issue, the manager responded via messages very quickly but the problem was never fixed. Another major issue is the “master” bathroom. This bathroom has the only shower/tub. So with 5 people having to share was a timely inconvenience. The biggest problem with the bathroom is the “contemporary” glass blue sink. The sink had a green mold growing from the handle and the sink was very loose. My wife and I refused to the sink for any reason. Often going to the kitchen to brush our teeth. We did love how close to house was to the beach and the screened in back baloney with the hammock. We definitely appreciated all the beach gear. ##### Donald B.

Tarpon Flats is a fantastic rental! The location is in a quiet neighborhood on the bay. It is a short 3 blocks to the beach. The single unit house has three spacious bedrooms, plenty of living and storage space and has a two car garage with automatic doors. The laundry area is also located in the garage with a front load washer and a newer dryer. The living room and dining room area is very large and open with a huge sectional couch and a dining table that can seat at least six people. There are two sets of French doors that open to a balcony that is great for sitting and sipping coffee in the morning. There is a huge flat screen smart tv with Roku, Netflix, Prime, etc. The kitchen has modern appliances and everything we needed to prepare our meals. A starter roll of paper towels, dish soap and dishwasher tablets were provided. The pantry was a decent size and there was plenty of storage in the kitchen cabinets. All of the dishes, plates, silverware, pots and pans were in really great shape. The house has a small half bath that is perfect for kids or if you’re like me, a great place to do hair and makeup when the master bath is in use! The master bath is modern and well appointed. The rain shower head is AWESOME! The only issue I had was the counter in the master bath was a little high for me to brush my teeth. The master bedroom had a wonderfully comfy king sized bed. There was a eight drawer dresser with a huge flat screen smart tv sitting on top. There was plenty of closet space in all three bedrooms and each closet had plenty of hangers. The screened in porch is accessed through the master bedroom. It is a huge quiet relaxing space with a hammock at one end and a group of patio furniture at the other. There are two lighted ceiling fans over head that are operated by remotes stored on the wall by the door. The second bedroom has a queen size bed and the third has two single beds. These are great family sleeping accommodations. All of the towels and bed linens were in great shape. The beach towels were of good quality. The beach gear include a sand buggy, beach chairs, pool noodles and sand toys. There was a beach umbrella which was in good shape and when we asked, a canopy was available. This is a great rental whether it’s for your whole family or just you and you significant other. It has everything you could want in a vacation rental on Anna Maria Island. ##### Michaele K.

This was the perfect property for my family. It has everything we were looking for and more. The property manager was always quick to respond and give great tips for exploring the island. The home is just a short walk to the beach or playground around the corner. We will definitely be back! ##### Heather B.

What a perfect property! Start your day on your deck watching the sun rise over the bay then enjoy the sunset a few steps away on the beautiful beach. Location- This property is nestled in a quiet neighborhood where you really feel like you can live like a local. There's ample space with the 2-car garage and small yard in the back of the home. You are a short stroll (2 short blocks) to the beautiful beach. Property- The property is spacious and well-decorated. All of the linens are of fine quality and it is well stocked with anything you might need. The bedrooms are exceptionally comfortable and the living area offers ample space to accommodate your family. Amenities- You will find anything you could possibly need at this property! The kitchen is well stocked and includes a large fridge, full size oven, dishwasher & microwave- all very high end. Lots of cups, plates, wine glasses and silverware for everyone. The open floor plan creates a space where everyone can communicate. The ceiling fans help keep things cool even on the hottest days. We did fine with one tub/shower and at one point there were 6 of us. (I was somewhat concerned because we had to get ready for a wedding but the space is so roomy we had zero issues.) A huge variety of beach chairs, sand toys, an umbrella and wagon can be found in the garage. The garage is a nice perk so your car stays cool and safe. Unlike most AMI properties, you can easily park 4 vehicles. We loved having the hose handy to wash our feet and beach toys. There is a full size washer & dryer in the garage which comes in handy for wet towels and suits. My favorite feature of the property is the screened-in porch. It is a great space for morning coffee or to unwind at the end of the day. The outdoor fans keep it cool and relaxing. Check-in was a breeze and the door code eliminates the risk of losing keys. The property manager is outstanding and quickly answered any of my ridiculous questions. I give her an A+++ We have been visiting AMI for over a decade and this property is exceptional. We would definitely stay here again! ##### stephanie n.
