Wonderful location

My family and I had the best time staying here. The house was spotless when we arrived. The pool, private dock, and fire pit made our stay. Beds were VERY comfortable and AC made it even more comfortable. 5 minute walk to beach. Mathias and Carren provided beach chairs, pool floats, fishing poles, towels, and a beach cart. The pool didn’t have a cage around it like in the pictures but we didn’t mind at all! It was almost better without so we can hang out with the kids while they swam. Sleeps 6 comfortably. I would definitely recommend staying here especially if you have kids.

Anna Maria getaway

The house was perfect for our vacation. We brought our 23 foot boat and had it parked on the dock all week. The trailer fit in the yard without any issues. manatees we’re seen daily by the dock. Great location for boating and near uncrowned beaches. Kitchen fully stocked. Outdoor grill. House was clean and everything worked as advertised. Pool was heated. Outdoor closet was full of beach chairs, etc.

Fall Get Away

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Blue Heron, aptly named, as a blue heron constantly kept us company near the dock. The property was perfect for our four adult family vacation party. The home is centrally located for all activities and a short walk to the beach. I don't think I have ever stayed in a rental property so well equipped and generous with supplies. We certainly hope to come again!

Amazing location & great vacation home

Our family of four had a lovely week-long stay here!! The location is perfect… two blocks to a gorgeous, white sand, non-crowded beach—perfect for swimming & body surfing; two-minute drive to the grocery store/dollar store/pharmacy; & right on a saltwater inlet filled with jumping fish, tons of manatees, & other ocean wildlife to observe. We absolutely loved kayaking with all the manatees every day!! (kayaks and lifejackets were included). Homeowners conveniently provide beach chairs, umbrellas, & a wagon to haul all the beach items. We enjoyed the hot outdoor shower; there is also a hose for rinsing off when you get back from the beach. The pool was warm. We liked that the pool area was screened in to keep bugs out in the evening & to stop our pool ball from going in the inlet. The house itself is spacious and has a great floor plan. Perfect for a family of four to six. It was very clean. The beds were super comfortable and the linens were high quality. There are a washer and dryer conveniently located off the kitchen/living room. (Bring your own detergent… we washed beach towels every day.) I would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful!!

My family of five stayed here for the week and really enjoyed it! The house was clean, comfortable and in an amazing location in relation to the beach!! We used the chairs, umbrellas and wagon provided by the the hosts and really appreciated that!! The back of the house is on the canal and there are so many manatees!!! I loved having coffee every morning and watching them pop up every few minutes!! Our experience here was great and the hosts were so easy to communicate with! They called to be sure we had settled in well, which I thought was a very kind gesture!

Great Spot!

Bring your boat! Boat ramp right across the canal from the house, we put in on first day and kept it tied up on the dock all week for easy daily boat trips. Saw manatees in the canal every day, owner provides kayaks to get a closer look. Kids loved the pool and fire pit, outside space was great and neighbors were friendly. Kitchen was well stocked and beds were comfy - a great spot!

Absolutely wonderful!

This property was exactly as described and more! We loved being on the canal and spent many hours fishing off the dock and talking to all of the people/boats who went by. It couldn’t be in a better location - right in the middle of anywhere you’d want to go! The house was more than equipped with anything we’d need from Beach Items - Pots/Pans - Fishing poles. We spent a wonderful week here and loved it!

We have been vacationing annually on Anna Marie Island for years and this beautifully appointed home is now our favorite. Owners are amazing. House is wonderfully decorated and comes with EVERYTHING you could possibly need. So very wonderful to just sit on the back dock and watch the many beautiful birds and Manatees.
