Summer Strand was the perfect vacation home for our family and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. The home is as advertised, centrally located, clean, well-appointed, beautifully decorated and VERY comfortable for a family or group! Nicole and the property managers were responsive and check-in/out was seamless.

Summer Strand is the best rental we have ever had on Anna Maria Island and perhaps anywhere. The house is luxurious, clean, comfortable, and attention was given to every detail. The location on AMI is perfect - tucked away enough to be private, yet walkable to the beach and restaurants. Summer Strand is a master class in rental property lifestyle branding.

Had a great stay at Summer Strand. The property was even better in person than the pictures on VRBO. Nicole was a fantastic host and was very communicative. Really enjoyed this property and location. Was our first trip to Anna Maria Is and loved it. Would definitely book this property again without hesitation!

Summer Strand is the best property we’ve ever stayed at. Everything you’d want to have in a luxurious vacation spot located on a beautiful canal. For my family and I, it was absolutely perfect. It’s within walking distance to the shops and restaurants on Pine Ave and also an easy walk to the beach. The owner and property managers were super communicative and helpful. An amazing stay from start to finish!

Fabulous week on AMI at Summer Strand. House was beautiful and well-equipped for a family of 7. The amenities (pool, spa, bicycles, beach gear) were beyond. Just a wonderful week! Would highly recommend Summer Strand for those seeking a private oasis!

We are regular visitors to Anna Maria and know the island well. It is our happy place!! This years vacation was made extra special because we stayed at Summer Strand. The house and amenities are outstanding. Spotlessly clean and well equipped. We especially enjoyed the outside areas. The house is very stylish, but at the same time comfortable and feels like home. We didn’t want to leave and hope to return. Thank you for a lovely stay.

This is an absolutely beautiful home. Everything about this home met or exceeded our expectations. So many little touches throughout made for a great stay. We were two families traveling together and we all had plenty of space to be together or to relax separately. The pool and outdoor area is so lovely and comfortable. Great location in the north end on a canal with very easy walking distance to Pine Ave or the beach. The house was well stocked with beach supplies.

What a beautiful week with family and friends. If you have teen boys this is the perfect place. Hot tub with a TV, pool room, ping pong, and a dock for fishing. For the girls, sun in the backyard until about 1:00, And then off to the beach in a quick ride with a golf cart. A well stocked garage with bikes, chairs, floats essentially everything you would need. We used it all. The house is beautifully decorated, The master bathroom is heaven. I will be using this wonderful hosts ideas when I redo my bathrooms. The beds were also very comfortable. This area was mostly spared from the hurricane. I would recommend breakfast at the North shore, lunch or dinner at the tropical BBQ and a wonderful Italian dinner at Ila Scala. We headed to the Ugly Grouper for a fun night out as well. I would highly recommend this house and the hosts. We will be back!

Stayed with my wife and 2 other couples. House is new, modern and spacious. Backyard is amazing and where we spent most of our time. Close to the beach, easy area to get around in a golf cart and plenty of great restaurants near by. Our host was attentive and quick to respond to any questions we had. Only slight things of note…no bathroom on the ground level so needed to go upstairs inside the house. Also, waterfall for pool was not working. Still highly recommend!

The Summer Strand home is truly amazing! Two families of 4 shared the home with kids between 9 and 13. It was a perfect fit. I can’t say enough about the beautiful design, finishes and furniture. It was a true 5 star experience! It was thoughtfully stocked with basics that I haven’t experienced in other homes which was really helpful, and the owners provided great beach items. The walk to the beach was easy with great beach access options. The kids had a hard time leaving the gorgeous pool area. With the canal, mosquitoes bothered us around dusk into the evening, but they have installed a mosquito repellent solution that helped. Highly recommend this beautiful home! Nicole, the home owner, was absolutely great to work with to get everything setup for the rental. We love AMI and Summer Strand!

We can’t even put into words how incredibly beautiful & well designed the property is. No detail was overlooked & we had everything we needed for the best vacation. Nicole & her team were the best! They were responsive & kind in helping us navigate town as well as any questions that came up during our stay. This was our first visit to AMI and the location of the house was picture perfect in a quiet setting but easily walkable to shops, dining & the amazing beach. We are already planning to come back the most special place!

This house is great! The house is beautiful and so clean! The owners have really thought of everything to make this house as welcoming as possible. This house is well appointed with everything in the kitchen you will need, plenty of towels, bicycles for the family, start-up amenities, coolers for the beach, and toys for the kids. Goose and Gander on island was great as well. They welcomed us the very first day to see if we needed anything. The complimentary charcuterie board was amazing! The location is great and close to everything. I really can't say enough about this property! It was an amazing vacation!

The house was everything we wanted for our family vacation. The private pool and the outdoor breezeway was great for outside family game night, dinner or just hanging out. We loved being on the canal and the two paddle boards were perfect for exploring the canals and even paddling up to Rod 'n Reel for breakfast. Nicole was a great host. She was very responsive and made check-in easy and our stay great.

Our stay at the Casita Canal was wonderful. The house was well appointed and comfy, the screened in porch/pool area was amazing, and the jaw-dropping beach was just a 5 minute walk away. The house is located close to Pine Avenue - near great shopping and dining and is equidistant to the gulf/bay coasts. We wished we could have stayed longer! Of note, the kitchen is well appointed but make to bring staples along with you (oil, spices, etc...).

My husband, myself and two friends stayed at the lovely Anna Maria to enjoy a little time away. The place is beautiful, well equipped and comfortable. A very quick walk to the beach and bay, it is close to things you want to do but far enough from the hustle and bustle you feel secluded. We will definitely stay again.
