House near beach, room for 10

While the home has some charm, it is dated and needs refreshing. Maintained backyard pool, quality linens and towels, well equipped kitchen are positives, broken blinds, ripped and dirty drapes and floors that left your bare feet filthy are negatives.

Great pool and only 1 block walk to beach

Great place. 5 bedrooms 4 bathrooms. Very nice kitchen, fenced in pool area with an outdoor kitchen/grill, tables and chairs along with 4 loungers to relax and catch some sun. The beach is a one block walk. Quick responses from both owner and rental company.

Family Vacation

We had a beautiful vacation on Anna Maria Island 🏝️. The house exceeded our expectations. For a group of 10, there was plenty of space, fully functional kitchen, the washer/dryer was helpful for many sandy/salty towels, and the pool/hot tub were awesome. It’s a quick walk to the beach. Book a stay here. You won’t be disappointed!

Amazing!

This place was excellent! The proximity to the beach made this trip excellent! We could walk to the store if we needed anything, and ride the free trolley around the island. The house was perfect! We loved all the beach chairs and wagon. Pool was beautiful!

Family getaway

Great location very close to beach. Two families of 4 stayed and had a blast. Walking to the beach each day followed up by pool in the afternoon and cooking out by the pool then going up roof to watch the sunset!

Amazing Location! Walk to everything!

Amazing location and walking distance to the beach, the mermaid, the sandbar and slims. Brand new construction and very clean with a great view from the rooftop. Pool is great for entertaining and private. Great stay!

Lovely House

We had a perfect stay in this beautiful dream house. Everything was clean, well equipped and the decoration is special. It makes you feel like you are part of this beautiful island. The view of the terrace is spectacular, I particularly fall in love with the sunsets. The private pool was great for the tasty family barbecues. We recommend it and for sure we will be back soon. See you AMI ...

Ideal location and perfect home for families

Nine of us stayed for the week of June 8. Kids were 2,6,& 8 with 6 adults. The layout was just right for us. The pool and shade area was great for afternoon swims when it was too hot at the beach. Manatee public beach with all of the amenities was just across the street. Inside the house the furniture was not too formal and not too cheap. We didn’t have to worry with the children. The large coffee table has a puzzle going on it the whole week. We would be happy to stay here again! Management was available by text and very responsive to our few extra needs. *The floors could be cleaner but the bathrooms and kitchen were perfect.

Another fantastic VRBO family vacation

We had a wonderful time at Beach View Retreat! My siblings, our spouses and I spent the week relaxing and enjoying ourselves in this great property. Plenty of room for all nine of us, close to the beach, and clean! The property manager responded quickly to our few questions and the pool man showed up twice to make sure the pool was sparkling. If we could have asked for anything, it would have been more clothes hangers in the closets, a few pot holders and some dish towels. We would definitely recommend this property for your visits to AMI and we plan on staying there again!

Lovely Beach Stay

This home is conveniently located near many restaurants, shops, and beach. It was clean, spacious and had the basics. The beds were too hard for our taste, and all the TVs are programmed for streaming. No cable or satellite so it made viewing tv programs a bit challenging. There’s a lot of information about the area in the home, and trash collection and how to work the door lock, there should’ve been a manual on how to work the remotes for the tv and programs. The elevator in the home is not for guest use, so something to consider if traveling with disabilities. This home is three levels, the ground floor is where the pool is, 2nd is kitchen, living room, etc., and the 3rd is the master bedroom. There’s a 4th that is set up for viewing the outdoor surroundings. So be prepared for carrying all things up stairs.

Nice property with excellent property managers

The house and property were clean upon arrival. After only one day the refrigerator died. We placed a call and maintenance staff was there immediately. Unfortunately it took 4 more days to have a working fridge, but they did bring one for the garage. It wasn't convenient, but they did make it right for us. One major gripe is that there are NO dressers in the bedrooms. Four adult couples had to live out of suitcases for a week, which is unacceptable. A simple solution would be to put an inexpensive dresser in each closet (which had no hangers either). Kitchen could use some rectangular pans, a mixer, measuring spoons, mixing bowls, etc. A quick trip to ikea would take care of these things that make it a comfortable stay for adults. All in all, nice home.

Wonderful home

We really enjoyed the home.beach is close enough. Home very clean. Decorated beautifully. Bathrooms very nice. Beds were comfortable. Couch could be cleaned. Kitchen needs silverware!!! No pot holders. Ice maker does not work. TVs have Roku. All work. Needs a vacuum or better broom. Needs a new grill bush. We could not get the pool lights on at night and could not heat up the hot tub. Maybe leave instructions on how to use remote. Pool was very nice in the shade in evenings and cleaned twice. There are rats in the evening (probably unavoidable) around grill. I suggest you dump your trash after cooking. The stairs are a lot! We had a lot stuff for 10 people. Elevator would have been nice but I understand. Over all great home and I would rent again!

moderately disappointed

The property was okay. There were rats on the fence by the pool in the evenings. The grill by the pool was so dirty that it smelled when sitting by the pool. My son ended up cleaning the grill and the drip pan from the grill that was disgusting. It was very time consuming. The pool was cleaned at the begining of the week and never again. It was cloudy by Friday. There was no vacuum only a old broom to clean the floors inside. We had 10 people but there was 4 spoons in the silverware drawer and no plastic cups for by the pool. The biggest disappointment was the internet went down sometime Friday and we never got it back. We paid alot for this place and couldn't even watch TV in the evenings. Disappointing.

It was just okay.

This place has potential. This house has all the basics, but there is no attention to detail…..Here are my suggestions for the owner. 1. The house needs a deep clean. There are bedrooms that have such filthy windows, baseboards, doors knobs, kitchen cabinets. 2. The kitchen needs a complete inventory. We planned to eat most of our meals in, as there were nine in our family. Not enough flatware for us to all eat without taking turns. I let management know and received another set right away. I also had to ask for plastic drinking cups as I didn’t want to hand the kids glass goblets to drink from and risk breaking. What is there, seems like random junk left by previous guests. 3. If you decide to visit here, bring your own scatter rugs. Not a single rug in the entire house….not even the front door, so you have endless white tiled floors, lots of sand and no barrier to stop it from coming in. By the end of day one, I could already feel the grit under my feet (imagine 5 kids coming in and out from the beach and not a rug to wipe your feet on. This meant I spent way too much vacation time sweeping floors (the broom needs to be replaced too). By day three, I made a Walmart run and bought rugs. 4. When the pool filter blew up (not an exaggeration) I let management know immediately. It took almost the entire week we were there, to fix. They kept the chemicals flowing and said we could still use it. By Friday, 3 in our group had chemical burns. We will not be returning.

A Week in Paradise

We spent a wonderful week at Beach View Retreat. The house was fully stocked, very clean and easily accommodated our family. The beach was right across the street. A beach cart was provided which made it easy to cart all our stuff. The pool, hot tub and patio were a great place to have afternoon drinks before going to dinner. We would definitely stay there again. Can’t wait to go back.
