This house was clean, check in was easy, and it was beautiful. The house is remarkably detailed in layout and design and comfortably fit eight adults for three nights. The water out front is shallow and perfect for swimming - where was saw numerous manatees and dolphins. The house included coolers, bikes, golf cart, and all of the other amenities needed to enjoy. We were also very close to Pine Ave and the local shopping and restaurants. Would love to go again!

Our family of 5 (2 adults, 3 kids ages 12, 11 & 8), my 70yr old Mom, as well as my sister & her 11yr old daughter stayed comfortably & happily for a week of Spring Break at Serendipity Deux!! We loved the location, luxurious decor, endless amenities & gracious host, Rick!! Highly recommend!!
We had a wonderful time in this home in Anna Maria. The 4 king bed bedrooms with private baths were all very comfortable and extremely beautiful! The home had a golf cart and bicycles for our use.There are restaurants, cafes and shops all within walking distance. And of course, the beach is right there!

Great location, right on beach. As described a bit rustic !
Really enjoyed staying at this cottage on the beach. Wonderful location right on small, almost private beach at very North end of the island. Appliances and carpeting a bit « worn » but in general things were clean and as advertised. Nice to have functional washer and dryer on site. Communication was good and repair person came by to check that things were good.

excellent respite on the water!
We absolutely loved our stay at the beach. It was perfect for our needs, we don't need a lot of amenities and travel light. Being ON the beach and waking up to have coffee and watch the sunrise was fantastic! Location on the beach was also super convenient for sister-in-law who brought the baby for a visit (it was so nice not having to truck all the baby amenities/accessories back and forth to the water). Cannot say enough wonderful things about this great find! Thank you!!!

This home worked great for our family. My wife’s parents were with and the elevator made things very easy for the them. Everything was spotless and perfect. We even went fishing with a place on their recommended list and had a blast. Captain Major knew what he was doing! We saw dolphins from the deck and fell sleep to the sound of waves. We will be back.
We had three adult couples staying for our short trip. The house was beautiful and very well maintained. As stated in some of the other reviews, the pictures of the beach access were a tad misleading. There is a large concrete barrier to climb over with not a whole lot of sand area to sit by the water remaining. It didn't change my overall opinion on the property. We still loved the trip and will be recommending to anyone looking to stay in the area. The owner was extremly responsive and such a great help to the few question I had. Loved the property and will definitely stay again!

Not accurate description/ photos
The photos of the property and description are not accurate. There is a huge cement retaining wall and 4 plus feet of rock to get to the water. This is not a “walk out the back yard to the water” property.

how could it get any better?
Sunrise just outside your window. Pelicans and heron on your own little slice of beach. This little house is perfect for a quiet get away, or spending some time with friends. We had a little of both with our stay. Spent some time fishing on the pier, exploring on the bikes, walking on the beach and reading on the patio. Everything you need is here- we especially appreciated the bikes and comfortable beds. We would like to come back when it is a little warmer to try out the kayaks. The water was a little too cold for us this time around.
Close enough to restaurants, shopping and fishing, private enough to feel like you are on your own little island.
