Speaking of the beach- it was great as well. It was soft white sand and not very crowded at all, and the best part was it was only a couple minute walk.

Plenty of room for the large group that we had (including 2 under 2!)It is only 1.5 blocks to the beach but felt less than that, SO close and convient. We had a golf cart to take us to and from just in case, but there is also a beach wagon at the house to help carry things! The overall location was perfect too, close to all the right spots (Publix, Coffee House, Wicked Cantina, etc.)The host is also amazing, checking in with us pre-stay (i had a lot of questions lol) & during our stay frequently and gave us a direct line of communication should anything happen during our trip. 10/10 would HIGHLY recommend and would absolutely stay here again!! 3 Thanks so much !!! ##### Kristine G.

The house was very well maintained, walking distance to the beach and close to many restaurants. We can't say enough about the backyard and pool. The landscaping truly made it feel like an island paradise. We spent most of the week swimming and cooking outside. The crows nest offers great views of the bay and the gulf of Mexico. Missy was easy to get in touch with and was very accomodating to our group. I highly recommend this house for a beach getaway. 10 out of 10 stars from our group. ##### jennifer d.

As reports of the hurricane came in we became concerned about that happening. Melissa was very forthcoming with information about the state of the island and her home. I'm happy to report that Anna Maria is "The little island that could." The island and many restaurant are open and welcoming guests with open arms. The Blue Water Beach House was as warm and inviting as in the past and the beach picture perfect. The effort and tenacity of the property owners and work crew is to be truly commended. ##### Mary Jane P. Stayed 8 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carol K.

It had everything we needed. With 10 people you need the privacy decks and the four bathrooms, but also the big kitchen and table for 10 for big meals and gatherings. The trees all around the pool was wonderful for privacy from neighbors. I loved the rooftop deck!! Many sunrises and sunsets watch there! The decor was awesome. It was clean and maintained very well.

It can be hard to find houses with 4 king beds plus beds for kids and this was perfect. Nobody had the “bad room” - they were all great! The kids LOVED the arcade games and we all enjoyed the pool. There were two wagons, several chairs, and lots of towels and toys for the beach and pool. It was so nice to load everything up, walk just a few minutes, and be at the beach. Missy was extremely responsive, delivering batteries for a dead tv remote within the hour. Would love to stay here again. Thank you, Missy! ##### Lauren O.

She is personable and always available if we had any questions. It was ready as promised, clean and smelled great!! The pool is why you would want to rent this house. It is small but with the winter weather it was warm every day!!! The hot tub was great. We usually go to the other end of the island for sand dollars but found 40 sharks teeth on the beach by the house. I would definitely recommend renting it. We had kids ranging from 7 months to 4 years and having their bedrooms upstairs was great. Hope to enjoy this house again!!! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 14 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David W. Aug 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### David & Marcia W. We would definitely stay at this property again. The walk to the beach literally was a 5 minute walk, the property was so huge, accomodating, clean and provided the room we needed for all of us to be comfortable but not cramped. Lastly, there were 3 lthings that made our trip outstanding by staying here at Avenue C: 1\. Nice pool and hot tub with an outdoor grill and TV set up were nice extras after spending time on the beach 2\. Huge common areas that allowed our whole family unit to be together and enjoy each other 3\. Perfect location to enjoy the gulf from the upstairs balcony and quick access to restaurants and Publix. Thumbs up to Missy and the team! Finally, an online description and photos on the internet that are accurate and not misleading. It made our trip perfect! David & Marcia W ##### David W. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Neave S. Feb 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Our first multi-generational holiday a success! I was quite worried about planning the first multi-generational trip for our family of 8 (6 adults and two children)! My daughter had been to Anna Maria Island Holmes Beach area with her husband and first son in 2019 and just loved the area so much that she convinced us to take our first family holiday on AMI. The minute we pulled up to the house I felt good about it and entering the main floor living space, saw it was exactly as it appeared in the VRBO photos. Everyone loved their rooms…especially the 3 and 6 year old boys who shared the bunk-bed room, safely next to their parents’ room. My son and his financee had the 2nd level rom with the ensuite and loved it too! Every morning I would put the coffee on at 6:30am and head up to watch the sunrise over the bay…and almost every evening, we would enjoy the sunset over the gulf. The pool, hot tub, foosball table and retro games were a great way for everyone to relax and have fun! My daughter said the Bradenton Beach location was better than Holmes Beach as it was much closer to everything. There were a few issues, as you’d expect with any rental, but as noted in other guest reviews, Missy was extremely helpful and prompt in finding solutions. We hope to return soon to create more family memories in this house! ##### Neave S.
