Great location!

We enjoyed our stay, the house had everything we needed, ideal location, and the host was helpful and accommodating. The one thing that would have been good to know is that one of the bedrooms is off the master and opens into either the master bedroom or the other bedroom which works great for parents with kids but not great with 6 adults. Nonetheless we made it work and had a great time!

We had a really nice stay at Coconuts! The house definitely has everything you need for a nice stay at the beach. I enjoyed my correspondence with the owner Mary Jo Cancelmo and am so thankful for the cleanliness and comfort of her home. There is a wonderful outdoor shower that can be utilized when everyone is calling for the first shower inside 😊 Thank you again for the use of this beautiful home! The Holshouser Family

Certainly would rent from this property owner , Maryjo , and this property again ! This was our first visit to the bean point and it didn’t dissapoint .. we enjoyed the beauty of this beach ( great shelling, fishing , sunning ,walking ….) and the house was equipped with all amenities including a space for “work from home” area . It is perfect for a nice after dinner walk to the city pier for a drink or Pine street for ice cream …. And maryjo is a super host ! Her communication is a difference maker !

VERY CUTE ARTSY COMMUNITY, GRESH WATER LAKES AND THERE IS ALSO A HOWEY IN THE HILLS RESORT AREA ALSO FURTHER SOUTH OF ALTAMONTE. I URGE PEOPLE TO STAY AWAY FROM THE ORLANDO CORRIDOR.

Location could not be better

Quiet north end of Anna Maria. Across the street from about 4 beach access points. We walked all over the island. There was a full kitchen, 2 full baths and 3 bedrooms, though to get to the third bedroom you had to go through one of the other bedrooms. The interior could use some updating, but was clean and spacious. This was a second floor unit, which was fine for us. Plenty for us to do, though there was no pool and very little outdoor living space for the 2nd floor. Lots of windows for great breezes.

Coconuts does not advertise as having a pool. Being true native Floridians, the Gulf right across the street is our pool...location and having beach access is more important to us. The courtyard has a separation fence only for the convenience of tenants who can bring one dog. Otherwise, the downstairs outside is shared by all and gates should be left open. If there was a misunderstanding, we should have been called. Neither unit had any dogs. We know our downstairs visitors well and know they are good about sharing. We are constantly updating, just as we all do at home...first time we have heard that statement in ten years. Anna Maria gets it quaintness by trying to remain "Old Florida" in character. Anyone in Florida remembering old Salty Sol Fleishman, the loved sports newscaster announcer in Tampa....knows that Captain Sol loved his home and we love it too. We wish we could update some things all the time...especially ourselves!

Awesome location

My family enjoyed Anna Maria Island, and especially this north end where Mary Jo's home is located - a very short walk and we'd be on the white sands of the island's wide beaches. Every evening many people gathered on the beach to watch the sun set, which was always gorgeous! The location is all residential with a few local shops and eateries. Mary Jo was very responsive and informative and provided great details about places to eat and other things - only a phone call away. We cooked alot, and the kitchen is very well stocked with pots, pans, casseroles, baking dishes, as well as glasses of all sizes, plates, bowls and silverware. We did notice a slight musty smell that lingered on our clothes - possibly due to the home being so close to the water.

House smell

Let me begin by saying location of the property is amazing. However the upstairs apartment we stayed in has a terrible old house/ musty smell that we got used to if it wasn’t for the fact that it permeated all our belongings. Although I washed everything as soon as I came back home we can still smell it. This can’t be healthy. Rome of the appliances don’t work great either.

This Place Has It All!!

We stayed 3 nights at this island gem and thoroughly enjoyed it! This beautiful house is very close to the beach and the owner (Mary Jo) was quick to offer us use of the beach chairs, fishing rods, and other items to make our stay the best it could be. We were impressed with how quiet the house and the surrounding area was. The nearby homes are beautiful and impressive as well. Mary Jo was very friendly and checked in with us several times during our stay and offered great recommendations on places to eat and things to do. The house has a very spacious living room, dining room and kitchen area, great for relaxing, playing games or watching TV. It has been well kept and has all the conveniences you would want. We loved this part of Anna Maria Island as you are not only close to the beach but also very close to some great restaurants! We enjoyed the Waterfront Restaurant, the Sandbar, and the Rod & Reel Pier restaurants, all were very good. We found very unique sea shells and numerous sand dollars on our morning beach walks. We would highly recommend this wonderful beach getaway and hope to be back again soon!

A lovely getaway

If you are looking to be only steps away from beautiful sun and sand, you’ve come to the right place, at Coconuts. We so enjoyed rolling out of bed each morning, for a stroll on the beach, no car required. The path to get to the beach is just across the street from the residence, where you pass through rolling dunes of powdery, white sands to access the ocean. The kitchen was well stocked, with every appliance you might need, so I was able to make my morning smoothie. The living room is bright, spacious and open, with several games and dvds provided for game nights with the family (We played an endless round of Anna Maria Island monopoly). Our host, Mary Jo, was very kind and greeted us upon our arrival. She gave us some suggestions for dining and local entertainment; I highly recommend “The Porch.” Mary Jo supplied everything you could possibly need for an ideal ocean getaway, right down to beach chairs, noodles and a wagon, in which to tote them. We felt right at home. All three bedrooms are connected, which some folks may not prefer, but if you just have your kids go through the Jack and Jill closet to access the secondary bath and living room, you’ll never know they are there. It was a wonderful time for all!

Spectacular vacation at Coco-Nuts on Bean Point

We have been vacationing at AMI for many years, but this was our first time staying at the Bean Point section of beach. Wow! Our 4 weeks in this magical setting went all too quickly; the location of Coco-Nuts sits immediately across from the most beautiful section of beach. The walk to the beach takes one through an amazing sea scape of sand dunes and broad ocean horizons. Glorious doesn't begin to describe the remarkable beauty nor the pleasure we experienced from this landscape. Coco-Nuts is an especially comfortable home and well equipped with a wide variety of items to enhance the vacation experience: comfy beds, spacious common areas, an extraordinary assortment of kitchen paraphernalia, beach equipment/toys, and certainly the largest collection of beach towels we had ever seen! This is a very attractive home and our family (seniors, adult children, and young grandchildren) greatly enjoyed being there. We especially wish to express our appreciation for the owner of Coco-Nuts. Not only is MaryJo very personable and accommodating, she is humorous and just plain nice. When the Corona Virus prevented us from staying at Coco-Nuts the previous year, MaryJo graciously allowed us to postpone our stay for a year. She is an outstanding communicator and our only regret is that we didn't get to spend more time with her. This was a fabulous vacation indeed.

lovely home, relaxing, clean, comfortable

We stayed in this home, aka "Coconuts", for 11 nights over Christmas 2018. The description of the location of the home is accurate as are its amenities. It is directly across the street from beach access. However, it is quite a distance to the water (500 yards) thru beautiful dunes. I wasn't able to walk the distance due to having a boot on my broken foot so I put my chair and towel in the dune area and was quite happy. The beach is patrolled by police but there are no lifeguards. The beach is beautiful as is the water. The house is in a quiet part of the island. There were quite a few golf carts,can be rented) and bikes. There is a Publix supermarket on the island but the one off shore is less expensive and has a larger selection. There is a gas station w/small grocery/deli, an ice cream store, liquor store, Walgreens, CVS, Dunkin Donuts and many smaller clothing stores, etc. on the island. You need a car or golf cart to get to those stores. The house is 3 bedrooms. However, there is no separate entrance to the 3rd bedroom. You can only gain entrance to the 3rd BR by walking thru the Master bedroom or the hall bedroom. This worked for our family but would not work for everyone. The house was perfect for our family of 2 adults and 2 teenagers and our dogs. The main area is tile so it was easy to keep clean. The house is spacious, there is a desk which is perfect for your lap top, the kitchen is well stocked and had any gadget you could ask for. There was even coffee, sugar and flour! Since the owner was so gracious, we of course, left other staples there as well as unused trash bags, foil wrap and laundry detergent. A beautiful, lovely home which we highly recommend. Would definitely stay here again! Thanks Mary Jo!

Thanks for your review. Unfortunately, we can't control the water erosion and winds. At one time the homes in front of us were only feet from the water. Now we have a wide beach. There is an entrance about one block away that is at the tip. You can walk to the beach easily and then walk around the tip in hard packed sand. That's what I do with grandchildren and beach wagon. You were a delight to have! Mary Jo
