The host was great…the place is well decorated and plenty of space. We cut our stay short because there was too many steps to climb. If we were going to stay for a week we could have lasted but we were supposed to be there for four weeks…too long of a time knowing we had a climb…our host did ask if we wanted to move one level down but again it was too much for us to handle.

Holmes Beach Condo

This was such a nice condo, really spacious, great location across from the beach. We really enjoyed being able to walk across for breakfast in the am at the beachside cafe and music each evening at sunset. We had everything we needed inside the condo as well, including W/D, well stocked kitchen and beach items. Close to every kind of restaurant you could want too! Thanks for a great stay!

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.

Beautiful week on the Gulf

Perfect accommodation for our family of four. Spacious living area and bedrooms. Location is very busy, but it worked out well for us. Our teenage sons had some places nearby to explore. Grocery and several places to eat within walking distance. Beautiful views of sunsets over the gulf. Would definitely stay here again.
