Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jane D. 19 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great 1st time visit to AMI Property worked well for our family (includes 2 teens). Easy access to a beautiful beach (less than a block). We used the beach chairs provided. We did not use the pool, but it’s a nice option, and looked clean. Air condition units in each room kept the house comfortable, after the initial cool down upon arrival. However, the units were very loud - hard to sleep the first couple of nights. Otherwise, the house was clean and had the necessities. We had a rental car and could easily get around the island. We took advantage of the activity options and did a boat tour, kayaked the mangroves, did jet skis, played miniature golf. We called and used the Monkey Bus to get to Bradenton Beach, as there is a lot of traffic and very little public parking in that area. We found the free Trolley to be somewhat unreliable. Plan ahead, if you are going to use the Trolley or Monkey Bus - waits can be 20-40 minutes… in the hot sun. Before flying out of Sarasota, we went to the John & Mabel Ringling Museum, which was interesting, and the grounds & mansion were beautiful. Suggestions: It would be nice to have a large beach umbrella available at the house. Need more frequent cleaning/replacement of air conditioners/filters. It would be nice to have information at the house, regarding open restaurants (a couple had permanently closed), hours of operation, and which take reservations (most do not - go early/plan ahead), locations of activities, bike rentals, grocery stores, etc. ##### Jane D.

You can walk one block to a uncrowded beach. We looked for shells most mornings and watched the sunset every night. Used the pool several days. The property is older but very clean and well stocked. The beds were comfortable. Easy walk for groceries and shopping ##### Anne L. Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Lee B. 21 Jul 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Location Location was excellent, couple minute walk to the beautiful beach! This is an older home and could use some personal touches, couch was dirty and my husband had to clean all the air filters in each of the units as they were not cooling the house well. The kitchen was nice and well equipped. Inside stackable washer and dryer is also very convenient. Bedrooms windows are by the pool so if kids are playing don't plan on taking an afternoon nap. This is a pet friendly unit and I loved that I could bring my dog.. Overall I had a very good stay and would stay here again. ##### Lee B.

This gem of a house was such a wonderful stay! We loved having two bathrooms and a large kitchen! The pool was gorgeous and even made our neighbors jealous!! There were lots of beach toys at the house to take to the beach, as well as chairs. The house is less than a hundred footsteps from the beach. Easy access. And a short walk to Walgreens, dollar tree and stone great ice cream or bagels! The trolley runs on the island for free, so it's easy to get to other beaches or the piers. ##### Jill C. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Phillip K., Tampa 7 Jul 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Location My wife, children, dog and I spent the 4th of July weekend at this location. The home is a rehabbed older home 1 block from the beach. It has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, full eat in kitchen, and a living room. The first floor has direct access to the outdoor pool. We were happy with our stay. The only challenge, as there is no central AC, was managing the AC wall units to keep the unit universally cool in hot Florida July. Also a FYI for reviewers, $50/day pet fee not included in original VRBO cost. These are not a deterrents from renting again, and i still give the review a 5 star based off location. ##### Phillip K. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Linda W., Greenville SC 4 Jul 2021 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### Fantastic location When we hooked this property I checked pet friendly houses. After booking and far too late to find another property, I find out there are no pets allowed here. VRBO used a “glitch” in their system as an excuse. I called 7 kennels before finding one with an opening for my dog. When we arrived at the house there was pet hair all over. The couple upstairs told us the family there before us had 2 pugs. I spent an extra $340 at the kennel because of this “glitch”. ##### Linda W. Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### kara M. 29 Jan 2021 Liked: Communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### great location, house needs help The location of this property is spectacular. It was a total joy to be able to walk right down to the beautiful beach at the end of the block. This was one of the loveliest beaches I've ever been to. The house was not as enjoyable as there were a significant amount of items that were in disrepair or were broken. The lawn chairs broke upon sitting on them, the dining room table leg broke the night we arrived, the dishwasher was broken, even the broom fell apart upon using. To her credit, the property manager was very accessible and offered a rebate of $100 to compensate for the lack of a dishwasher. The place needs an upgrade- the couches were dirty and there was a significant musty smell upon arriving. The price was lower than others in the area, so perhaps that is why. We were disappointed the pictures showed a bunk bed and there was no such bunk bed- only a trundle. We'll definitely be back to Anna Marie Island and would seek out this location if repairs and updates were made. ##### kara M.
