Quiet neighborhood, but highly walkable to beaches, fishing, shopping and restaurants, plus trolley stop at the end of the block. We utilized all amenities, and had a relaxing time.

Apr 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful home in a wonderful location We loved our stay here. Our one suggestion would be to leave more “staples” for guests. There were no spices (even salt and pepper), no storage containers (baggies or ziplock containers), no liquid hand soap, no Saran Wrap or aluminum foil etc). We’ve stayed in many VRBOs and have appreciated when these types of items spill over from guest to guest. ##### Deb O. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amy H. Mar 6, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great stay! Super easy check in & quick response with questions. The Pool was warm & the House is super close to the beach. We had family staying at the house on the end of the canal that were catching fish off their dock & we saw a manatee in the canal! The House had everything we needed for cooking and had enough toiletry essentials to get started. (Hand soap, dish soap, dishwasher tabs, garbage bags.) The pool gets a good mix of sun and shade throughout the day, so there is options for both all day long. Very private backyard. Game room and screened in porch were great to have! ##### Amy H.

The home location was really great & the backyard was lush & private! Beautiful spacious pool! Another bathroom upstairs would really help out. There are too many bedrooms sharing upstairs. Even a 1/2 bath would help out. ##### Rhonda G.

Had an issue with pool heating but believe they are getting it fixed now- the agents were easy to get in touch with when we had any questions.

Could not enjoy fishing off dock or pool after 5:30-6:00pm because mosquito’s were so bad. Other than that our stay was great. ##### Heather W. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Tracie M. Apr 7, 2021 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Castaway stay The home was a great location with closer proximity to the beach and to shopping. We rented a golf cart and kayaks. The beds were comfortable and the house is very large. However, there was construction going on next door as a home was being built. The noise was intolerable. I called to speak to the manager and my call was never returned. Another issue is that the family room furniture has a musty unpleasant odor. The property was fine just way overpriced during a construction period and for the fact that it’s felt very tired. ##### Tracie M. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen M.

We did a lot of cooking and kitchen is spacious & pretty well equipped. Great for entertaining on the spacious tables. WiFi needs upgrade with everyone working at same time! ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vancho T.

The house was clean, comfortable, and as described. We used the pool everyday without issues we’ve had at other rentals - it was cleaned and at a warm temperature — plus the hot tub worked on command. Thank you for the great stay. ##### C P. Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Cheryl M. Mar 2, 2020 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Great house! Great accomodations for large family gathering. Loved having access to beach (and ships, restaurants) close and the pool at the home was great asset. Negative - the house could have been better cleaned (some mold in showers, food on exterior cabinet fronts and walls, floors could've been mopped). This house wasn't so bad you couldn't stay but for as nice as the house is and what we are renting it for you would think they could've have cleaned it MUCH better! Overall stay was enjoyable for our large family. On a side note, there are MANY large homes going up on this island which you would assume means larger families/friends will be renting. Unfortunately, many many restaurants could NOT accommodate our group of 12!!! ##### Cheryl M.

It is a spacious home with a great open floor plan and large bedrooms. We have stayed in this home 3 times and will look forward to returning again. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Miguel M., Orlando Sep 13, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### This house is Amazing We really enjoyed our vacations in this beautiful big house and one block to the Gulf Beach. I brought my 21' boat and was perfect in the private dock, and I rented a jetski. I had some questions to the managers and they answered me in minutes. If you want a great vacations near to the beach this is The House. ##### Miguel M. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tram T. Jun 28, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family Trip in AMI The house was very clean and in a great location. Plenty of room for the whole family. Loved the big round table in kitchen and screened, outdoor dining area. Game area was great for older kids and house was equipped with beach toys for younger kids and even a wagon to help push everything to beach. Also loved the outdoor shower and restroom so you wouldn’t have to track water and sand in house. I only have a few comments that could have made the stay just a little better. Have the pool cleaned prior to new guests checking in - we arrived on Friday with the pool filthy and had to wait until Saturday mid afternoon until it was scheduled for service; equip kitchen area with cutting knives - there was only a bread knife available, either add DVD player or ability to download apps to smart tv - for family movie night; and lastly put AC unit in game room as it would get very hot and uncomfortable to play in. Other than those, Would still highly recommend this house for any family looking for a great house in a great location. ##### Tram T. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Debbie Q. May 14, 2019 #### Beautiful Castaway Cove Beautiful clean house with all the amenities! Enjoyed a wonderful family vacation on Ana Maria Island. Close location to beach and town....all in walking distance! Grandkids especially enjoyed the kids bedroom and beautiful pool. Landscaping made you feel you were in the tropics!!! Definitely will be back again!!! ##### Debbie Q. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sophia C. Feb 19, 2019 #### Excellent That house is perfect. The time we spent in it was beautiful. My parents were in love with the view seen from the terrace. Everything was very clean, well equipped, the location is excellent, restaurants and shops just a few steps away, the beach just one block away and the beautiful bay just behind the house. The pool area is great to relax while you keep an eye on the children (especially if you have four like us) they loved everything. Thanks to the management for being so attentive and helpful. We will be back soon. ##### Sophia C. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Detlef M. Feb 17, 2019 #### Great house in a great area That house is perfect for spending a nice time with friends and family! It is very spacy, very comfortable and very clean! Shops, Restaurants, Beach and bay are very close. The manager did a good job, everything was as agreed upon! We love this house and will come back again! ##### Detlef M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark P. Feb 17, 2019 #### Memories to last a lifetime! The best rental property we have ever stayed in. Spotless, clean inside&out, well equipped, great location 1 block to the beach & very peaceful area, bay right behind the house, everything smells brand new. Great ice cream shop & many restaurants 2 mins walk. There is nothing I would change. Just a perfect vacation for our family and we'll be definitely coming back later this year. Great job! ##### Mark P. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hammock Beach Golf Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-Hammock-Beach-Golf-Resort-Spa.h994170.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Naples-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Coconut-Point-Resort-Spa.h792025.Hotel-Information) > > [The Resort on Cocoa Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-The-Resort-On-Cocoa-Beach.h329971.Hotel-Information) > > [The Resort at Longboat Key Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-The-Resort-At-Longboat-Key-Club.h27542.Hotel-Information) > > [Windsor Island Luxury | Home in Windsor Island Resort, Private Pool, Arcade](https://www.expedia.ca/Davenport-Hotels-Windsor-Island-Luxury-Home-In-Windsor-Island-Resort.h60809096.Hotel-Information) > > [The Shores Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-The-Shores-Resort-Spa.h15752.Hotel-Information) > > [PGA National Resort ](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Gardens-Hotels-PGA-National-Resort-And-Spa.h10355.Hotel-Information) > > [DiamondHead Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Myers-Hotels-DiamondHead-Beach-Resort.h200632.Hotel-Information) > > [Bahama House](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-Bahama-House.h893658.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Resort Panama City Beach by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Resort-Panama-City-Beach.h18867.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club in Sandestin Golf & Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Miramar-Beach-Hotels-Embarc-Sandestin.h1054729.Hotel-Information) > > [Pink Shell Beach Resort and Marina](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Myers-Hotels-Pink-Shell-Beach-Resort-And-Marina.h15603.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Fort Pierce West by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Vero-Beach-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Hotel-Suites-Fort-Pierce-West.h538557.Hotel-Information) > > [Zota Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-Zota-Beach-Resort.h15703469.Hotel-Information) > > [Compass Hotel by Margaritaville Anna Maria Sound](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-Compass-Hotel-By-Margaritaville.h41961327.Hotel-Information) > > [South Seas Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Myers-Hotels-South-Seas-Island-Resort.h40732.Hotel-Information) > > [Margaritaville Beach House Key West](https://www.expedia.ca/Key-West-Hotels-Margaritaville-Beach-House-Key-West.h48713884.Hotel-Information) > > [Sarasota Surf and Racquet Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-Sarasota-Surf-And-Racquet-Club.h9728448.Hotel-Information) > > [Mission Resort and Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Leesburg-Hotels-Mission-Inn-Resort-Club.h2057662.Hotel-Information) > > [Cedar Cove Resort and Cottages](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-Cedar-Cove-Resort-And-Cottages.h8099611.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ben West Palm, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/West-Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Ben-West-Palm.h38983694.Hotel-Information) > > [Casa Del Mar Longboat Key](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-Casa-Del-Mar-Longboat-Key.h15602940.Hotel-Information) > > [Tropic Sun Towers](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-Tropic-Sun-Towers-By-Capital-Vacations.h1169627.Hotel-Information) > > [Bonaventure Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-Bonaventure-Resort-And-Spa.h159.Hotel-Information) > > [White Elephant Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-West-Palm-Beach-Hotels-White-Elephant-Palm-Beach.h42412055.Hotel-Information) > > [Edgewater Beach & Golf Resort by Resort Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Edgewater-Beach-And-Golf-Resort-By-Resort-Collection.h803238.Hotel-Information) > > [Amrit Ocean Resort and Residences - Singer Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-West-Palm-Beach-Hotels-Amrit-Ocean-Wellness-Resort.h36247449.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Vacation Club Daytona Beach Regency](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-Hilton-Vacation-Club-Daytona-Beach-Regency.h40772.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Cocoa Beach Oceanfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Cocoa-Beach-Oceanfront.h4398.Hotel-Information)
