Nice place
This place is extremely well designed with the space they have available. Everything has a spot. We really enjoyed how close we were to the water and all the shops. The beds were good enough for sleeping and it was really great to come back to the place after a long beach day. Really good base of operations. Fun times in Anna Maria!

Cozy Condo
The owner was very helpful and answered all of my questions! Check in was very easy. The condo was very cozy! The beds were comfortable, and each room had a TV. There was also an air mattress that was convenient and comfortable. My daughter and husband borrowed a fishing pole from the neighbor above us and fished in the canal. They spotted a starfish, and a dolphin swam through the canal, which was both surprising and amazing. The kitchen had plenty of space and cookware. There were people in the unit above us, but we couldn't really even hear them. The property is very quiet and peaceful! I knew housekeeping had been through because the bedding was fresh, etc, but I do feel like the unit could use a good "spring cleaning". The kitchen cabinets needed a good wipe down, dresser drawers had dust and some hair in them and needed a good wipe down as well. It was still a wonderful place but just wanted to mention this tip for the cleaning crew.

Nice apartment exelent location
I recently stayed at this apartment for a 4th of July getaway, and it exceeded all expectations! Located in a prime spot, it's conveniently close to everything. The apartment itself was spacious, clean, and well-equipped with everything from a fully stocked kitchen to cozy bedrooms and a modern bathroom. The decor was stylish and created a welcoming atmosphere

Perfect place for our trip!
We were so pleased with our stay here! The rental had everything we needed and was so convenient. The rental is private and quiet and yet right in the middle of everything. I walked across the road to watch the sunrise over the bay each morning because it was so close and it was easily my favorite part of the trip. We also had ice cream every night at Two Scoops - maybe that was a little too close and convenient ;) The mattresses and bedding were extremely comfortable! The living area and kitchen fit our needs perfectly. The bathrooms were clean and well stocked. This was our first time to Anna Maria Island and our whole family loved every minute. We can’t recommend this rental enough! We hope to be back soon!

Charming Old Florida Feel
This apartment is just across from the water on the inland side of the island. I could see the pier entrance from my kitchen window, Nevertheless it felt very private. Close to everything, restaurants, shops, beaches. Just across the street from the inland beach and a straight walk to the gulf beach. New tv's, excellent wifi. Nice relaxing stay.

The place was clean and located in a great spot near everything. We got a car which we didn’t use too much. Renting bikes was great because we were able to get everywhere we wanted and toured the island.

Great location and place to stay. Easy access to the city pier and restaurants and the beach. We enjoyed being able to walk across the street to get coffee in the mornings and ice cream at night. Accommodations worked great for our family. Bring quarters if you plan to do laundry.

Loving the “Love Shack”
From the moment we entered the “Love Shack”…we knew this would be a fun Anniversary Getaway. It was perfect… clean, very well furnished and kitchen so easy to use. The decor is beach and very comfortable. It is a short walk to the beach, great shopping, and several good restaurants. We loved our time there!
