Loved Anna Maria Island

The property was as advertised, centrally located and an easy walk to Manatee Beach. The place had everything we needed. It also offered a beach buggy, umbrellas and chairs, all of which was greatly appreciated. We’d stay here again.

I cannot say enough nice things about this property. We had easily accessible parking, clean & comfortable accommodations, an amazing view of the beach from the balcony, all needed utensils to use the kitchen & grill, a ping pong table as well as accessories to make beach time more relaxing. Parvenah was an amazing host. Communication was great and she is so nice. Very highly recommended. I noticed some mentioned the traffic out front. It is busy, but it is not distracting. However, if you prefer more quiet, there is a balcony and yard in back that is calmer and has more breeze.
