Perfect for our group of 4. We had a great time and enjoyed sitting on dock on canal- saw four manatees go by during our stay. Great location for pine street shopping and dining. Only suggestion would be to have some backpack beach chairs. (We were late to the game and rentals were sold out). Host was very responsive and communicated well during whole process.

The condo worked perfectly for myself and my daughter. We could walk to the bayside in two minutes for the sunrise and 10 minutes to see the sunset on the ocean side. We enjoyed the location as we could walk to shops, resturants, trolley stop, kayak/bike rentals and just sit by the canal. The condo was nice and clean and had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend this place and would stay here again.

We absolutely loved our stay here on Anna Maria Island! The building complex felt very safe and peaceful, and the location couldn’t have been better. The beach was just perfect — crystal clear blue water and soft sand — truly beautiful!Everything was close by and easy to get to, which made our trip so relaxing. The host was incredibly kind and helpful, and we really appreciated that personal touch.We will definitely be coming back soon. Highly recommend!
