The Blue Horizon

This property was wonderful for our family! There was plenty of space for everyone in our group and the location was perfect!! It was directly on the beach, with beautiful sunset views over the ocean. The pool and spa were great as well, heated to a perfect temperature and a great design for those with young kids (ours are 2-9). The property felt private but still very close to everything with being more mid-island. The rental company was easy to work with and we had no issues during our stay. We would definitely stay here again if we return to the island!

This is the perfect property for a large family/group. Beachfront and a 2 buildings for some separation. We separated the young from the old. Lol. Great location for things to do. Awesome sunsets!! We can't wait to come back!

This house and property is absolutely amazing! Our family of 9 adults and 9 children ages 4-13 had fabulous time at this beach house! With 3 families and us grandparents, we each had plenty of room as we each had different floors to stay on. The only thing that would be helpful is if the full kitchen on the lower level of the 6 bedroom house would have a small oven or at least a stove top. Perhaps that would be more beneficial than a dishwasher. But we made it work. We stayed the last week of April and the weather was perfect the whole week. The beach has soft powdered sugar sand and shelling and sand castle building was a daily event! And the sunsets! No words to properly describe the sunsets! Of course the beach was the main event for this Midwest group, but the pool got plenty of use also. With a large house with great views, and a semi private beach, this is a lovely place for a family reunion!

Wonderful home to rent and home well equipped. Always appreciate the beautiful access and view of the beach off the deck and our kids and grandkids love the beach volleyball ball court! Thank you!

We had 9 people, early 20s, ourselves (late 40s) and parents (70s). What an amazing week. The two units with the pool in between was so perfect. Great location right on the beach, private pool we spent hours in, and a great AMI location. The pictures don't do the location or property justice. Everything was working perfectly, the pool and spa were spotless, and the access and view of the beach (and sunset) were perfect. Thank you!!!

Lovely property on a very nice section of the beach with plenty of space to gather and plenty of space for privacy. The pool is bigger than it looks in the pictures and the water temperature was perfect. We had a few maintenance issues upon arrival, but all were taken care of the next day. Many thanks for a memorable week on Anna Maria Island.

Great trip and experience. The property was great for large group and gave just enough privacy yet togetherness. Will be back. I would like to make a couple recommendations: include more details on how the house recycles as it wasn’t clear to us. Create a document for guests to easily list any issues that might help the owner make site maintenance improvements.

Great house, great location, excellent service throughout stay. There were a couple of small issues, but property manager took care of them quickly. House could use a little overall Maintenance (ice machines, hot tub, etc.) but there will always be a little of that. Overall an excellent place to stay.

We were at the Blue Horizon two years ago and just returned to Houston after our second visit. Incredible once again. Plenty of space for everyone, got really lucky with the weather as it was spectacular all week, beach was perfect. Had family and friends from OKC, NYC, Pittsburgh, Miami, Tampa, Little Rock. Great time.

Fabulous views from our deck directly on the Gulf Pool was shaded just the right amount of day and sunny just the right amount of day Extremely well equipped

This property is exactly as described. We enjoyed our time there and had plenty of room!

We loved this property. So much to do for all ages - volleyball court, pool, hot tub, beach, outdoor space. We had a group of 14 people and had plenty of room for everyone.

Big house with beautiful view and lots of space for families! Nice backdrop for family photos. Maybe not as great for families of toddler children as there are many stairs to maneuver and tall furniture and glass decor. The private heated pool and hot tub was wonderful for kids to play in any time of day. Loved being right on the beach but this house is a bit noisy on the main island road and across from a gas station but then this did give easy access to stores/restaurants. There were several maintenance issues (dishwasher didn't work, microwave didn't work, door to go to pool came off track) so we wound up doing lots of dishes by hand on vacation. Maintenance guy was nice and did come mid-week and fix most of the issues except the dishwasher. Anna Maria Properties did a fantastic job communicating with us!
