Love hearing that—thank you, Jo Anne! We’re so glad Bamboo Bungalow by AMI Locals checked the boxes with a clean space, beautiful pool area, and that great location. Sounds like island life treated you well! We’d be thrilled to have you back next year for another round of sunshine and relaxation.

This home is in a prime location, close to restaurants and shops and a quick walk to the beach. The canal was such a nice feature. The house is ver clean and somewhat stocked with basic essentials (as described). We did run into a few pool heating issues, but the property manager was very on top of it and we had it repaired within hours of me calling. Over all a great stay!

Great house, lots of light, comfy beds, clean upon arrival. I do wish they would leave some essentials from previous tenants like dry condiments & such, pool floats etc. The last house we stayed in was stocked with these items & it was really helpful. Overall we were very happy with our stay.

Great stay. Pool & spa fantastic.

Spacious bungalow. Good size kitchen. 2 living spaces. Main bedroom suite had TV that didn’t face the bed so used the 2nd king size bedroom as ours. Pool/hot tub felt very private with the bamboo screening the property, but it didn’t feel like the temp was as warm as advertised. Frustrating to not be able to keep the sliding doors open and enjoy the breeze through the screens because of the alarm system but understand the local ordinance for safety reasons.

Sue H. - Posted: 12/22/2024

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the spacious bungalow, the well-sized kitchen, and the two living areas. It’s great that the pool and hot tub felt private with the bamboo screening, even though we regret to hear the temperature didn’t quite meet your expectations. We’ll look into this to ensure future stays are as comfortable as possible. We understand your frustration with the sliding doors and the alarm system. While it’s in place to comply with local safety ordinances, we appreciate your understanding. Thank you for staying with us, and we hope to welcome you back for another relaxing visit!

The home had everything we needed to enjoy a week at AMI! It was very clean. The back living room and patio/pool area were great! My only feedback is to get rid of the beach chairs with rust. We didn’t realize it would come off on our clothes so we stained two swimsuits, a cover up and two pairs of shorts. We purchased a nice beach chair and left at the property.

timothy o. - Posted: 9/21/2024

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re so happy to hear that the home had everything you needed for an enjoyable week at Anna Maria Island and that you found it clean and well-equipped. We also appreciate your feedback about the beach chairs, and we sincerely apologize for the rust stains on your items. Thank you for purchasing and leaving a new chair for others to enjoy – that’s very kind of you! We hope to welcome you back for another great stay in the future.

It was very nice and we enjoyed the walking distance to the shops and beach. Wish we could have completely bypassed the alarms to go outside as we were all adults staying there. Thank you for the great visit!

Sandy G. - Posted: 8/8/2024

Thank you for your review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the convenient walking distance to the shops and beach.

As advertised, had everything we needed for the week

Steven S. - Posted: 5/30/2024

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. The property was very clean. I have animal allergies so, finding a place that is animal free can be hard. This alone was a real bonus. Other bonuses, the canal, the hot tub, privacy, close to Pine Ave and the beach. It was just two of us but, would totally come back with the kids and grandkids. Communication was good - although we had no issues or need to contact the management. The AMI locals videos for remote controls was very helpful too! Thanks for a wonderful visit to help us relax and unwind!

Nikki L. - Posted: 4/25/2024

Great location (right around the corner from Pine Ave) and being on the canal was a bonus! Saw a couple manatees swimming through and caught a few fish from the dock. Would definitely recommend!

Rob M. - Posted: 4/17/2024

Great space for family and friends. Loved the two family rooms, pool area, and oasis on the canal. Plenty of room to spread out and chill. Loved the location to shops, restaurants, and beach.

Patricia M. - Posted: 3/12/2024

Patricia, thank you for your feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the space for your family and friends, including the two family rooms and pool area.

If you ever plan to visit again or if there's anything else we can assist you with in the future, please don't hesitate to reach out. We appreciate your review!

Great location with a short walk to the beach. The pool/hot tub were amazing. Communication with the property management was easy and they were so responsive even on the weekend. We would stay here every time.

We recently stayed at the Bamboo Bungalow and really loved our family vacation to AMI and our VRBO property was excellent. The house was very clean, comfortable, and a great location! We were in quiet neighborhood just around the block from Pine Ave for AMI restaurants / shopping and an short 5 min walk to the AMI Pier or AMI beach to enjoy the beach or gorgeous gulf sunsets. Plus it’s on the canal and I used my 19 ft CC fishing boat during the two week stay ! The pool was perfect and our family enjoyed relaxing after the beach at the pool together, before going out for sunset / dinner ! We had a wonderful trip and plan to come back !

We recently stayed at the Bamboo Bungalow and loved our trip. The house was clean, comfortable, and decorated well. And a great location! We were just around the block from Pine for shopping and an easy walk or ride to all beaches. Plus it’s on the canal and we saw manatees! Only complaint is the pool was too warm and would have preferred a little cooler. Otherwise, wonderful stay!

Ashley S. - Posted: 8/3/2022

Ashley, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are glad you enjoyed the home, canal, and location. We also appreciate your feedback about the pool temperature and will be sure to pass this on to our team. We hope to host you again sometime soon!

Our family including two young kids (4 and 1) stayed here for a week and had the most incredible vacation. The house is so clean and well maintained. We loved sitting on the dock watching the water and even made friends with a night heron. The pool was amazing and great for little kids. It was almost too warm when the days were close to 90. We loved that the sliding doors had child alarms on them but wish the two other sliding doors could have the screens secured closed or something so we could sit on the porch room and open up to the outside. The kitchen was well stocked. Just be prepared to buy your own garbage bags and soap, paper towels, etc. The beds were soooo comfy and sheets soft. AC worked great and we loved the living rooms. I wish the rental posting had told us what came with the house. There is a great beach cruiser there that was better than the rentals we had pre ordered. Also a beach wagon, noodles, floats etc. The coolers we didn’t use because they were pretty dirty inside and the beach umbrella didn’t work either. Totally fine as they were a bonus and not expected. We also loved the use of the outdoor fridge for beers and waters. The location cannot be beat. A block from the main drag with great local restaurants. Beach in either direction. For young kids we enjoyed bayside and the Bean Point bayside. Make a point to go to Sandbar restaurant, Mar Vista, Donut Experiment, Tide Tables and both the Mexican and pizza place. All so good. What a great property and managing agency. Thank you we will be back.

We had a group of 5 adults for our stay. The house had plenty of room. We especially loved the 2 living areas. We spent most of our time outside in the pool and hot tub. The house is well stocked. We especially loved the wagon, beach chairs and umbrella. The extra frig in the garage was nice too. You really don’t need a car once you get here. We rented a golf cart for the week and used that. We would definitely stay here again

Debbie A. - Posted: 6/15/2021

Debbie, thank you so much for choosing your beach getaway with us! We are delighted to hear you and your group enjoyed the pool & spa as much as we do. We hope to have the pleasure to have the chance of hosting you all again. You all were spectacular guest to have.

Prime Vacations staff

Pleasantly surprised with the pool and hot tub. Wonderful temperature. Nice outside area in the back. Saw a manatee going down the channel one morning. Beds were very comfortable. Only recommendation for owner is getting garage door openers available for use. Thank you for the wonderful house!

Anthony S. - Posted: 6/5/2021

We truly appreciate your wonderful feedback. And seeing manatees is such a special sight to see around here. Your suggestions have been noted and will be discussed with our team. Thank you so much for choosing to stay with us and we hope you allow us to host you again on your next adventure to the island.

The property was great! Everything was nice and clean. Very well decorated. Beds were very comfortable and air conditioner was nice and cool after a hot day at the beach! Kids loved the pool and swam multiple times a day. Easy walking access to trolly and Pine Ave as well as multiple beaches. We made use of the beach wagon and supplies. Loved the house and would stay again!
