The second stay was just as good as the first

This is the second year in a row that we rented this property from Anna. This is a great property and Anna is a wonderful host. The property is very close to the beach and is well stocked with all of the items you need at the beach. The condo itself is clean and comfortable and everything was in good working order. We also enjoyed the heated pool. Overall, we had a wonderful stay.

Wonderful Trip

My family traveled in October to Anna’s townhome. We had a great time. It is just as it is listed and the pictures too. We had plenty of room, and a great location! Very close to the beach and pool. It is decorated very nice and comfortable. Beds were comfortable and we liked the many balconies it had. We especially enjoyed the flat top grill. Good communication with Anna. I would suggest you and your family stay in this townhome you will really enjoy it as we did!

Perfect AMI retreat!

I can't say enough about how perfect our trip was. The condo is in the perfect location to visit all of AMI. The rooms are comfortable and well-appointed. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook several meals along with a large griddle on the back screened porch you are set! Walking to the beautiful beach is about a 3-minute walk with a toddler and the host has a ton of beach items including chairs, floats, toys, umbrellas, and a wagon. The outdoor shower and beach towels by the linen service made everything super easy and stress-free. Communication with the host Anna was fantastic. We will be returning to AMI! You can't go wrong staying here.
