Great location, walking distance to hear places on the island. Excellent communication. Would definitely recommend and come back again.

the location was great! the cottage itself was ok. new furniture but needs a working table & more seating. Hot water was fine in showers but took forever in sinks.
Randy - Posted: 1/31/2026
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us, Randy! We’re glad you enjoyed the location, it’s a great spot for easy island time and bringing everyone together. We appreciate the honest feedback on the cottage as well. The hot water system is working properly, though the sinks use water-saving fixtures, which can make hot water take a bit longer than in the showers. Your notes on the table and seating are helpful and have been shared with the team as we continue improving the space. We hope you still made some good memories and would love to welcome you back for an even better stay next time.

The rental was super nice inside and also very clean. It has a great location, only two blocks to the beach and it includes beach chairs and wagons. Restaurants and shops were also just a couple blocks away. We walked daily all around the area. The outside grill was nice to have available for use as well. We did have a couple issues we encountered on our stay that are worth mentioning. As someone else pointed out in a review, we had no hot water in the kitchen for dishes, even after letting it run for a while. It was available in the bathroom but took a while to get there. Unfortunately the memory foam mattresses were extremely hard/firm and very uncomfortable. I realize this is a personal preference that many people are ok with, but for us it is a deal breaker that would prevent us from returning.

This property is perfect for a family of 4 or group of 4. The location is great, a short walk to the beach and several shops and restaurants.

Very clean and cozy. The property is beautiful and so convenient to the beach; only about a 3-5 m in walk. Also very close (walkable) to shops and restaurants.

Week in AMI
Great location, easy to walk to the beach. Bed was very firm as others have said in their reviews. Very clean accommodations. There are no extras in cupboards like salt/pepper/cooking oil/etc - you must get everything you need at the Publix nearby for your stay. The beach chairs and wagon were nice to have onsite, and I left an umbrella for the next guests since we were flying home. Happy with our stay and AMI! Thanks

How to AMI the Right Way
My family stayed in the adjoining property last year and were thrilled to find this unit available for our trip this year. We absolutely loved staying here. The location is perfect. The prooerty management is very attentive to your needs as a guest. This unit has everything that a family needs to enjoy AMI the right way. Staying on AMI doesn't have to break the bank! You can stay close to everything on the north side of the island, have everything you need (including space), and be 2 blocks from the beach. We will gladly stay here again. Highly recommend!

Clean, recently renovated
Comfortable 2 bedroom, 2 bath, nice and clean. Excellent, fast response from the Property Mgt. co. The propane grill and the toaster were replaced the very next day after my complain that they were not working! Two blocks from the beach...

Great location at Anna Maria Island
Anna Maria Island is the best beach I’ve ever been to and this location was a great part in this amazing experience we had over there. We stayed on April/2024 for my birthday and it was unforgettably good. Short walking distance to the beach, very very clean, organized. Had everything we needed and even more. Highly recommended

I was very happy staying at this location. It was an easy walk to the beach and to Pine Ave and even to the Anna Maria City Pier, but still in a quiet neighborhood. The Unit was as described, clean and safe.
