Anna Cabana A: North End Pool Home, Short Walk To Beach by Anna Maria Life Vacation Rentals

The house was well-equipped and sufficient for our needs. The pool was small and cold during the day, but nice and warm at night. There were issues with check-in: we arrived after business hours, and had not received check-in instructions. We called, texted, and emailed—to no avail. The next morning, we were informed that we had not signed the rental agreement (we had never received one.) Since it was a last minute booking, I attribute the mixup to that. Also, the remote doesn’t work for the bedroom tv. Other than that, it was a pleasant stay. Very close to Bean Point Beach!

Beware that the pictures have not been updated and property has different furniture, whih has been poorly been put toegther and just thrown in. Pool is NOT heated as advertised, so if you go to the property in the winter months, the pool will be freezing cold and they will try to tell you that their heater only pulls heat from the environment when it's above 60 degrees. Think they missed what an actual heater is and are counting on the sun to heat up the pool. Headboard was falling off and we quickly realized that the headboard was hung up on the wall by a screw and not attached to the bed, which was a sharp metal frame which banged our shins anytime we walked by (we had to wrap the metal frame in a blanket and pillows after hitting it for the third time). The power went out on the island for hours. There were no flashlights, candles or anything helpful in the property that would help us see where we stepped. It was pitch black and it happened on a sunday, when their property management was closed. Anna Maria Island is paradise, but the property did not meet our expectations considering it was a 35 degrees outside. Lastly, it is not two full bathrooms as advertised, it is a bathroom and a half bathroom. If I was the owner, I would put a little more care in actually getting the property ready for rental.

The property was adorable. Definitely will.be making this a tradition and will.come.back every year. The house is perfect for 2 . Quiet and cozy. Everything is close . Beach access is a 1 min walk. LOVE THE AMMENITIES. Wagon chairs n floats for the beach. An all out great time

This was a very nice little cottage that we stayed in. The pool right outside the door was great. A couple of times we had a minor maintenance issue and they were right there to fix it. We hated to leave because it was so nice. And the beach was a short walk. The only problem was that it rained a lot! One day it rained all day long and all the streets were flooded. We stayed in all day, watched TV and watched it rain!

Loved this property, would definitely stay here again! It was perfect for the 2 of us. The location was PERFECT, couldn’t have asked for a better location, loved staying on the north end of the island! The property managers were great too. The only thing I wish they would change is the queen bed in the master bedroom, it was like sleeping on the tile floor! But I had anticipated that from reading other reviews. I don’t have a bad back, so I was okay, but my husband complained every morning! It was spotless and very nice!

We liked the fact there was no public parking which made the neighborhood beaches not so crowded Bicycles and golf carts is a plus to move around the island The trolley bus also was great

It was a wonderful place to stay. Was very comfortable. The location is great. We loved walking to the 2 piers and the beach. The pool is so great. Went in it everyday.

Several blocks walking from the main shopping street, but it was definitely doable.

Liked short walk to the beach. Kitchen facilities very good. Liked skylights.

Host was great no issues there. Just wasn’t impressed with the furniture and bed.Wasn’t very comfortable, the maintenance on the house was in much need of attention.It’s the details like frayed window shades, chipped tiles, stained grout. There was a dirty towel left on back of bathroom door from previous occupants. Anna Maria Island is not a cheap vacation and that’s fine, but with that is the expectation of nice accommodations. One of the bed pillows had a smell of being washed and not dried all the way. It was the only feather pillow in the place. Should be replaced

Deceptive pricing and undisclosed fees.

Such a cute place to unwind and enjoy some peace and quiet. Loved the patio and private pool! The house was extremely clean when I arrived. I definitely plan to return.

We absolutely loved every minute of our stay! Only few minutes to direct access to the beach & loved the private pool! My girls enjoyed! We went out to dinner two of the nights & cooked on the grill the another… all wonderful!!! Beautiful location!!! Exceptionally clean & easy check-in & check-out process… the management company was wonderful too! Great correspondence! We will be back!

The place was very clean and comfortable. It was perfect for us as a couple and having two bathrooms was extremely convenient. Loved the location and the ability to walk to Pine St. or to Bean Point using the trails between the houses was great! The kitchen was supplied with dishes and serving utensils to make meal preparation at home and entertaining an easy task.

The place was super cute and clean. The communication with the property manger was easy and always so helpful! We loved the location for the 6 min walk to bean beach and the private pool to come back and relax to was a plus. Would stay here again for sure!

Awesome, very clean great location a block from beach! You can walk right out your door and be there in 2 minutes! Very peaceful as well!

NOT a 1 min walk from the beach. It's 1 min walk to the sign for the beach. Had to rent a golf cart and park at AML rental office and go to the closest beach access to the office. That was really disappointing. Not as private as we'd like, there was always someone in the mornings. The landscape crew almost caught me in a compromised posture when I was trying to erase some tan lines out back thinking it was private. Cute place, nice everything and convenient to shops, further walk for beach than we wanted. A bit misled on that. Golf cart rental place that we were supposed to get a discount with through staying wasn't available but we did book last min, it was my birthday surprise from my bf. But I'd stay here again just for the coziness. The sweetest staff at the office ever though!

overall the location and property is great.only thing keeping this property from being a 4 or even 5 star property is the bedroom. namely, the bed itself is not sufficient for two adults, in both size and comfort for the price. it was a pretty small and rickety bed, without a headboard as well. there are a few other small things that could make this a repeat 5 star property, but the bed is the biggest drawback

The house was so clean, warm, and inviting. I hope we can come back to the EXACT same home next year. I left happy and calm. Thank you!

Location was in the area we love best ! Biking and relaxing with a minimal walk to the beach is our goal. Two bedroom was really one bedroom with a couch that makes a bed. Main bedroom mattress very firm if you like firm! Only need we had that was not available was a broom to sweep the sand The welcome box was great I would add two laundry pods for to be perfect

Enjoyed our stay at this nicely updated and furnished property with small private pool. The proximity and short walk to the beach is a big plus.

Great place to stay. Convenient to everything. The only thing is bed is way to firm !!!
