Anna Maria Island near Sandbar and Beach

Great location !!! Terrible chairs in kitchen and on deck . Beach umbrella coming apart. No soap in dispensers, instead tiny bars of soap for sink anshowers. Ice maker not working in fridge. Bought ice and it started to melt . Great location but a few small problems if corrected would have made our stay fantastic.

Great Property and location- perfect for beach lovers!

We loved staying in this property!! It was perfect for our annual girls trip of 6. So close to the beach, restaurants, convenience store and rental options. The home decor was beachy & fun. There was beach towels and chairs, a cute outdoor area on the ground level and decks with views of the ocean. The kitchen was well stocked with updated items. We did have trouble with the upper level air conditioning unit, however the management responded as soon as they received the message. There were ants in various areas of the house, again they sprayed immediately and it alleviated the problem. The beds and bedding were very comfortable and the bathrooms spacious. A few times it was a bit noisy as delivery trucks and daily garbage trucks serviced the nearby Sand Bar restaurant but didn't really bother our group. Overall it was a great property & we really enjoyed our stay!

Could not have asked for a better location. The beach was a 1 minute walk and only a 5 minute walk to all shops and restaurants on Pine St. The sand bar restaurant was on the beach 1 minute away. House was great for families with kids. Hot tub was a bonus. We would definitely go back to AMI and stay at this same house again.

Our stay was amazing. This is our 5th summer in Anna Maria and this house is in an awesome location. Walking distance to restaurants and shopping and steps from the beach on our favorite part of the island. House was well-equipped - kitchen, beach supplies, etc.

Beautiful and clean house situated in an excellent location within steps to the beach and restaurants. The house was spacious, comfortable and decorated very tastefully. Communication with management was very easy; one morning after a storm, the elevator stopped working and it was fixed and taken care by the time we returned from the beach. Beachview Retreat is a lovely home and I would definitely recommend

I wish we had stayed longer!

The property was in a great location— minutes from the Sandbar and the beach. It was very well apportioned with high end appliances and finishes. My family was able to relax comfortably. The only problem was entirely our own— we didn’t stay long enough.

Perfect Location

Let me start with the location of the property. You are steps away from the beach, the best beach bar & restaurant and the Pine Street strip of restaurants and stores. The set up of the home with the upper level kitchen/great room and deck looking over the ocean was amazing. Very clean completely rennovated home was amazing. I'll be back again for sure.
