Jan 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Just what We Needed! We really wanted to get away and stay in Anna Marie Island. This was a great place to do this. It is very spacious, and the accommodations were perfect. The beach and Bridge Street were a short walk, and we certainly took advantage of that. The complex had pickle ball and tennis available and even had Bingo. Thanks for a great time!!!!!! ##### Sharon M. Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Chelsea W. May 4, 2025 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### Would NOT recommend stay While the location was perfect, the online listing was anything but accurate. We arrived to the community with a construction sign stating “Active Construction Site; enter at own risk”, had construction workers on our roof and around our building the entire week, the pool and clubhouse were completely closed due to damage, and the fishing pier is destroyed. I booked this stay with excitement to use all of the amenities being offered with my 2yo, only to be completely disappointed. Communication with the owner was nonexistent, as my complaint has been ignored. I would not recommend booking this listing. Overpaid for a false listing! ##### Chelsea W. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller May 1, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great stay at Runaway Bay The condo was clean and pictures accurately shows the property. My 3rd stay at this complex and love the area. My one complaint is there are no curtains or blinds on the huge sliding glass doors/windows in the living room. That is not okay; I felt totally on display in the evening with absolutely NO Privacy. This issue needs to be addressed immediately prior to renting to others that may want some semblance of privacy. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Tamera S.
