Great Location! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Our stay at Mermaid Manor House was simply unforgettable. Three families stayed together and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The house boasts five full bathrooms, which made our mornings a breeze and the tropical backyard was our little slice of paradise. The interior decor is absolutely amazing, perfectly complementing the coastal vibe. Plus, the beaches on AMI are breathtaking. Tony and Christine, our hosts, truly went above and beyond. They are the best ever! ##### Amanda This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### LeahM 22 Feb 2025 #### Hidden Gem! Four families shared this hidden gem near Anna Maria Island, and every parent enjoyed their own king suite with a private bath and comfortable mattresses. The kitchen has the biggest island we've ever seen and was the heart of our get-togethers. Every corner of the house is thoughtfully designed, with stylish decor and an open, welcoming feel. The tropical backyard and heated pool were perfect and private. The AMI beaches are absolutely stunning, you wouldn’t even guess that a hurricane hit the area a few months ago. The entire area is so beautiful. Tony and Christine truly went above and beyond. We can’t recommend this spot enough for your next vacation! ##### LeahM ### 10/10 Excellent #### Emily K. 15 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### You must see this place!! To begin the owner was extremely responsive and communicative! I have rarely stayed at a rental with this much assistance, flexibility, and overwhelming desire for us to have the best experience! Check in and out was seamless. The rental guidebook was so helpful in planning our days and the house was fully stocked with everything you’d need to go to the beach or a day by the pool!! Everything was BRAND NEW! The decor was fun and well thought out. The house was spotless!! The living spaces were perfect for a big group to have a giant family dinner or games in the living room! The bedrooms provided personal space and the back yard is stunning!! I would rent from Tony time and time again!! ##### Emily K. Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James M. 15 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Vacation with large family Our family (15 of us) stayed here and had a wonderful time! The layout worked great - has 3 bedrooms on each side (6 total) with the living area in the middle, which worked out great. Plenty of bathrooms and hot water for showers. Right out the back sliding doors is the pool, game room, and hot tub. It's great that you can keep an eye on the pool while in the living room or kitchen. The home had just been renovated, so everything was essentially new. Location is very good - only about 5 miles to Anna Maria beaches. Traffic can get a bit busy but it wasn't too bad. Our host, Tony, was awesome - very responsive. We had an issue with the pool heater but it was resolved within a few hours. Tony was very helpful and even provided a guide for the area, i.e. restaurants, things to do, etc. All in all, we had a great time and will definitely consider coming back here again! ##### James M. Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2025 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Larry H. 9 Mar 2025 #### Perfect Beach House We had an amazing stay at Mermaid Manor! Four families shared this spacious home, and it was perfect for our group. Each couple had their own king suite with a private bathroom, which made things so much easier. The kitchen was a dream, and the massive 15-foot island made dining together a breeze. The backyard felt like a tropical oasis, and having the pool screened in made it even better. The huge covered patio on the side of the house was a great spot to hang out, especially when it rained. We grilled, played cornhole, and just enjoyed being outside no matter the weather. It was also great to see that Bradenton and Anna Maria Island have totally recovered from Hurricane Milton. You’d never even know a storm came through. Everything was open, the beaches were beautiful, and the area looked as amazing as ever. Tony and Christine were fantastic hosts, making sure we had everything we needed. We can’t wait to come back! ##### Larry H.
