Our family of 5 had a wonderful experience. House was perfectly located near grocery stores, restaurants and most importantly the beach. A short walk and we were on the beach which made it most convenient not having to park or take the car. House was clean and newly renovated. Pool was an added bonus that we all enjoyed. We would definitely stay here again.

Thank you for your wonderful review! Old Florida cottages may not be everyone's cup of tea, but we're thrilled our charming getaway on Anna Maria Island was the perfect fit for your family of 5. We're delighted to hear that the custom queen bunk beds were a hit with the kids—our own family loves them too! The convenience of our location, just a short walk to the beautiful beach, grocery stores, and restaurants, makes it easy to relax and enjoy everything Anna Maria Island has to offer. We're glad you appreciated the thoughtful renovations, modern updates, and especially the heated pool—it's a favorite feature among our guests. We can't wait to welcome you back for another memorable stay!
We had a great stay at this wonderful, renovated cottage. Exceeded our expectations. Owner was quick to respond and went above and beyond to try and make the reservation happen and worked with our travel schedule during the holiday season. The guest bedroom was a bit tricky with the bunk beds (definitely would not work for senior citizens or those with mobility issues), but the nice bathroom with roomy shower made up for it. The pool was also wonderful! Even though it was cold outside (yes, Florida gets cold, too!), the owner made sure the pool was heated for our comfort which allowed us to relax in it in the evenings. Kitchen had everything you could need and cottage location was ideal. Thank you, Collin! We had a great time at the Pink Palm!

Thank you for choosing the Pink Palm for your stay over the week after Christmas, and for sharing your wonderful feedback. We're thrilled to hear that your experience at our cottage surpassed your expectations. We're delighted that you enjoyed the various amenities, including the heated pool and well-equipped kitchen. It's fantastic that even in cooler weather, our efforts to keep the pool heated added to your relaxation. Your insights into the bunk bedroom are appreciated, and we're glad to hear that the spacious bathroom with a roomy shower made up for any considerations. We want to highlight the positive aspect of the lower queen option in the bunk bedroom, providing flexibility and comfort for our guests. Additionally, we'd like to mention that all the bedrooms are equipped with blackout shades, adding an extra level of comfort and privacy for a fabulous sleep. We believe this feature enhances the overall experience for our guests. Thank you once again for choosing the Pink Palm. We look forward to the possibility of hosting you again in the future. If you plan another getaway to Anna Maria Island, please don't hesitate to reach out. We'd love to welcome you back. Wishing you all the best and many more enjoyable vacations!
I have been going to FMB for 23yrs. as an owner of two condos on the beach. I was not looking forward to being displaced for the season. What a wonderful surprise I had when I experienced this beautiful Old Florida chic cottage. It was very clean, decorated similiar to mine, and had anything you needed for a relaxing vacation. The pool and private yard were a real plus also. I was there for 1 month. Family members enjoyed their 1 week stay also. This lovely place accommodated 3 generations. It happened to be the beginning of March Madness and the 70” TV was also a bonus. I highly recommend this vacation rental for wonderful March memories!

We are delighted to hear you enjoyed the property. And how exciting 3 generations got to spend time together under one roof. The 70-inch TV is always a nice break from the sun. We would love to have you back, anytime!
