Fabulous Host and Accomodations

Everything was perfect! The hosts made sure we had everything we needed. The house was super clean, well stocked and close to everything but also private. Heated pool was amazing, the beach path was just a short walk out of the backyard. Family volleyball were events to remember! Highly recommend these hosts and we will definitely be back!

Girl trip

1st time to Anna Marie and it was so much fun. We really enjoyed the area and location of the house. The house had an old Florida bungalow feel to it but was very up to date with today’s times. We would 100% stay here again. The property manager was very prompt and friendly which was a plus as well. Loved it!

Fantastic Stay!

This property was amazing. It had everything we could want and more. My husband and I stayed with our 17 year old daughter, 14 year old son, and his friend. They all loved it and want to rent the house again. Rick was great. He was very responsive and helped with everything we needed.

A+ for FantaSea

Complete 5 star experience. First off this was our first trip to Anna Maria Island (AMI) and the place was paradise. From beginning to end FantaSea was FABULOUS. We were able to check in early upon arrival to find the home exactly as described. The amenities from the included golf cart, paddle boards, kayaks were an awesome inclusion. The house had everything we needed for dining in and the rooms were more than comfortable. The proximity to the beach was better than we thought as it was just a couple hundred yards down a beautiful path. As a person who owns a vacation rental property, I have high expectations for where I book my vacations and FantaSea lived up to those expectations for sure.

Perfect location

Our family (including 2 teens) loved the location, a very short walk out back to the nearly private white sands! Away from the crowds, but close to Pine Ave. and a quick golf cart ride to restaurants/shopping. We loved the surfer bungalow vibe, private enclosed backyard, access to kayaks/paddleboards, large golf cart, perfect sized pool, and sand volleyball court. Nearly every amenity is thought of- beach chairs, beach towels, fishing poles, beach toys, volleyballs, not to mention surprises to welcome us! Loved both outdoor showers too. Thank you for an easy, relaxing week to reset with our family!

Over priced

Disappointing, We paid a premium to rent this property for 7 days, great location but, way overpriced, dysfunctional layout, we saw several snakes on the property, our girls got bites from the paddle boards that were infested with ants. Not a great experience but we made the best of it.
