A little more dated than expected but overall a great stay. Families with kids stayed the same weekend. If you don’t have kids it got a little noisy.
So close to the beach.

Thank you for your review, Tabitha. We hope you found some quiet time at the beach--the weather has been great! We hope you will consider the Anna Maria Beach Cottages on your next visit to AMI!
Great property with lots to offer. Had a minor maintenance issue but they sent someone right away. Also, I was not feeling well the morning we were to check out and they let us extend the time we left until I was up to packing! Would stay there again!

We enjoyed our stay however I spent the morning at the chiropractor, the bed is very small and very uncomfortable. They should really invest in a nicer bed for their guests.

Bryan, We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We are sorry to hear that you felt the Queen bed was small and uncomfortable. We will definitely look into the comfort level of the bed as it has not been mentioned previously. Please keep in mind that we are local and available to assist with anything you may need during your stay (like a foam mattress topper if you felt the bed was too firm). Thank you for your review.
5 min walk to the beach. Parking right at the cottage. First aid kit had 3 little butterfly bandaids and alcohol wipe. We had construction going on updating the deck when we got there. Quiet stay otherwise. Clean and comfortable. Property manager was very friendly.

This unit could use a little modernization and updates.
This unit was very clean. The property is in perfect location to everything on Anna Maria. The pool was a great bonus!

Thank you for your review Ryan. Glad to hear that the location was perfect, the pool was great and the unit was very clean. We will pass along your comments about modernizing the unit to the unit owner. We look forward to your next visit!
Had an excellent stay with my wife at this location. The place is small but has everything you need; also, between the beach being a 5 minute walk away and the heated pool, there isn’t much reason to stay indoors :)
The place is a short walk away from some great food and drink options. The owner also has bikes available (first come first serve basis). My wife and I used the bikes daily to cruise around town and check out some areas.
Overall we had a great time. We will definitely be back. Anna Maria in the winter is an excellent getaway!

Thank you for taking the time to leave a nice review. We are happy you enjoyed your stay and look forward to your return.
We liked the location and it was fairly quiet with the exception of the construction nearby & lawn care equipment.
The pool was not heated at all .
There were boogers on the bedroom and bathroom wall though perhaps it was something else.
Overall, we did like your cottage.

Thank you for your review Brad. We are glad to hear you liked the location. We are sorry to hear that you found something on the walls--please feel free to reach out to us anytime during your stay so we can address any concerns or issues you find. The pool is heated --although if there were cooler temps during your stay the pool heat may have had a hard time keeping up. Again--reach out to us anytime so we can address your concerns. We are glad you liked the cottage and hope you will visit again!
We had a great stay here. It is a small place, the couch in the living room is a pullout, but once it is pulled out, you can barely get around it. Not a big deal if you just put it away during the day, but just to show how small it is. The bathroom was way larger than we thought it might be, which was nice. We had trouble getting the shower to warm up, not sure if it shares a water heater with the rest of the properties or not. Cold showers after the beach aren’t a bad thing, though… it was so close to the beach, I live in St. Petersburg and this was such a nice getaway because we were only steps from the water! It doesn’t look as close on the map as it actually is in person. It was a fabulous location in regard to being close to restaurants in AMI - you could even walk to some! Having a pool at the property was nice, it’s a smaller pool, but was clean and really nice to have. They have tons of beach stuff to use like chairs and floats. The porch was so nice, very spacious to have several people sitting out there in the evenings. I would stay here again, but probably just with a max of two people. Thanks for the great stay!
