Beautiful home. Great communication throughout our stay. Beds very comfortable and nice furnishings. Back yard shady the end of February so didn't use as much as we would have liked since we had cooler weather. Enjoyed the deck and ground level patio.
Front driveway-rent a golf cart!

We loved our stay at the Island Hideaway! We had a great experience and loved the property. We had 4 adults and a teenager and it was plenty big for everyone! The heated pool was a major hit! It is located next to a church and in a nice and quiet area on the island. I would definitely stay here again! Parking was great and we had plenty of room for 2 cars and a golf cart for the week. We have vacationed on Anna Maria for 10 years now and will definitely consider this property in the future!Only suggestion I would give is to add TVs to each bedroom. There was only a TV in the living room and master bedroom and with a teenager and grandparents it would have been nice for everyone to watch what they wanted in the evenings and before bed. Nothing I would complain about but something to consider!
