Another wonderful stay

We had another wonderful stay and we will be back! Furniture was comfortable and we love the pool. A couple kitchen additions would be great: 1- a crockpot so dinner can be cooking while we are at the beach and 2- a couple more icecube trays with a basket so we can stock-up on ice. We did not need to use any but the selection of beach chairs and umbrellas was nice for those who cannot bring their own. Communication with the new owner was great. Highly recommend this place for a lovely stay close to the beautiful ocean!

Perfect Stay!

This was my first trip to AMI and I’m so glad I chose this property to stay in. Nicely remodeled, comfy bed, and well laid-out. We were thrilled with the proximity to the beach, it’s seriously a one-minute walk. Pool was warm enough to get in and the patio was enjoyable too.

Beautiful Beach Getaway

This condo is perfect for a stay at Bradenton Beach. It is directly across the street from a beautiful white sand beach and has a pool located in the back of the property. Jill was a wonderful host and very attentive to any and all of our needs. She kept an open line of communication should we have needed anything. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Great vacation stay!

The property was in a perfect location. We loved that end of the island and the few short steps to the beach! The cottage was adorable and so very comfortable for all of us to relax in the evenings and rainy afternoons. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook at home (bring your own groceries ), it was super clean and Jill was a fantastic owner/manager to communicate with. We will be back!

I have stayed at this property 5 or 6 times now and I have had positive experiences each time. Property management is extremely responsive and accommodating. The property is gorgeous and well maintained every time. It is also just steps from public beach access. This is where I will stay anytime I am in the area.

Perfectly Beach-y Home away from home

Jill’s beach house was just perfect-the location, the decor, the accommodations and amenities. Felt like ‘home’, but better because you are just a couple minute’s walk from a beautiful, in crowded beach! Communication with Jill was great, and she went above and beyond in accommodating our extended family and their pup. Will definitely be back!

Happy bright place so close to beach!

Such a great sunny place SO close to a fantastic beach. The kitchen was well-appointed with everything you need to cook and prepare food. For being so central to everything, it was so quiet at night. No road or other noise. The owner responded to questions via text within a few minutes. We loved our stay there!

Perfect Location Plus!

The condo was well equipped with anything anyone could possibly want, spotlessly clean and daily checks from Jill to make sure everything was satisfactory. It was more than that. The location is the best we've ever stayed at; literally just across the street from an uncrowded beach. Definitely we will return!!

Great spot for a family trip

Jill was very communicative and helpful when needed. The property is in a great location for beach access (right across the street) and within walking distance of multiple restaurants/bars. Good amount of room for a family of four. You do share the pool area with a couple of other units and the pool isn't very big but we didn't swim much and the temporary "neighbors" we talked to were nice so these weren't a negative for us. Great time overall.

My first time on AMI - So happy i chose to stay here! Clean, cute, quiet place with everything you need and more. Owner is very communicative and very responsive- she made sure we had everything we needed and were happy. Access to an uncrowded, white sand beach is just steps away. Publix is just down the road and the free island shuttle stop is also practically in front of the door.

Perfect First Visit to Anna Maris

Wanting something very different from bustling, high rise beach towns, my family chose Anna Maria Island and it did not disappoint! The apartment is very convenient to the Cortez Bridge and a few restaurants and a gas station. Walk out the front door and a 3 minute walk to the right gets you to a quiet beach perfect for sunny days and catching the gorgeous sunsets. A 5 minute walk to the left, takes you to the quiet Bayside, where you can watch the sunrise. The apartment itself was quiet, clean, and very cute. For a family of four, including 2 kids, it had everything we needed. We enjoyed the shared backyard pool and the quiet, walkable neighborhood. No steps made it ideal for hauling gear to the beach and easily accessing the outdoor shower to rinse off sandy feet. I appreciated the on-site, washer and dryer, laundry baskets for collecting and transporting laundry, and little touches such as night, lights, and many hooks for towels both in and outside the unit.Highly recommend!
