Reviewer Comments:
Wonderful place. Better than pictures show. Huge pool. Property was very clean. Spiral stairs were cool even for a lady with bad knees. Had everything you could need including beach chairs and wagon. Close to the beach and trolly stops. Only thing I would change is the dressers. They look antique and smell old. Didn’t use them. A full length mirror would be great too. Would definately stay again. Met the owners and very friendly and helpful.
Fantastic location—everything was just minutes away by golf cart, which made exploring so easy and fun! The bed was super comfortable, and we had a great stay overall. While the home is a bit dated and could use a little extra cleaning in spots, it didn’t take away from our trip. We’d definitely stay here again!
The property was clean and very welcoming, the location of the property also in a great spot very close to the beach and a very big outdoor space with a big pool as well.

Loved the pool and the quick walk to the beach. It was a short drive to get to the grocery store or a short walk to take the shuttle. Would definitely stay there again.

What a great time! We’ve been staying here for many years and never disappointed. Place is great and in a nice location close to the beach, which is nice when the main beach is too crowded. Private pool is also a big plus.

Thank you for your lovely comments! It was wonderful having you, and we hope to see you again soon.
The location was very close to the Gulf. Home was very clean and well furnished. The pool was heated and very refreshing. The palm trees around the pool have it that Caribbean feel. This place is highly recommended to stay at. Thanks for a great vacation place to stay.

This unit was well equipped, excellent location and beautiful kitchen. Two blocks from beach, a park and pickle ball, tennis court, skateboard park and dog park near by. I would stay here again for sure. AMI has so much to do and see - it’s hard to get it all in while on vacation!
