Our family had a fantastic stay at Areca Cove! The house was clean, comfortable, and had absolutely everything we needed for a weeklong stay with our 3 teens. The layout was great with room for both family time and alone time, and the kitchen was set up so well and very well stocked with cooking supplies. The location is amazing - short walk to an incredible beach and right next to the trolley stop, without feeling like you’re on a main road. We had a great time walking to both ends of the island, had some great meals at local restaurants, and got the vacation break we all needed. Olaf and Marissa were communicative, kind, proactive, and made our stay wonderful (even helping out when we left some things behind!). We would stay again in a heartbeat! Thanks Olaf and Marissa!
Great location to the beach. The heated pool was nice considering we visited in December.
We really enjoyed are our stay at Areca Cove. It was a beautiful house and only a short walk to the beach. The owners were great to work with. We are looking forward to staying at this house again next year!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Areca Cove. The house was perfect for our family of adults and teens. The pool was gorgeous and added to our enjoyment of the hot AMI summer days. Olaf was very helpful and super communicative!
This property was the perfect house for our family vacation. Location was perfect. The pool was our favorite! Super clean, great layout and felt perfectly at home staying here. Usually like to try different places but would be more than happy to come back to this property. Fabulous!
This house and the owner are excellent. The house was super clean and well organized. The house is fully stock. Very spacious house. The location is perfect. It’s close to everything but still you have your privacy. The beach is just around the corner. Also the pool area has everything you need and the pool temperature it’s always perfect. The owner received us at house and made us feel welcome. We love it!
The property managers were excellent with communication before and during the stay. The home itself is spacious, with most all the amenities and extras needed for a beach location. Would stay here again!
The house is beautiful and a short walk to the beach. House had excellent amenities. The owners are very responsive and friendly! Overall we had a wonderful time and experience!
This property is a stunner and so well looked after by Olaf and Marissa. They met us at the door at arrival to familiarize us with the house and give us the keys. They are always available and live nearby. The house was very clean and well-appointed. We also made good use of the pool when the beach was too windy; perfect mix of sun and shade. We hope to return to this property next year!
Areca Cove was an awesome place to spend two weeks! The pictures accurately represent the property listing plus more. The beach is a short walk across the busy main road on Anna Maria Island, but there is a signed crosswalk that stops traffic making it an easy walk to multiple public beach options. Manatee beach is a short walk to access to a great souvenir shop, an ice cream shop (yum!), food and beverage choices, and daily live music - which we enjoyed often. Anna Maria Island has a trolley - and the pick-up spot is very close to this home. The free (really its free) trolley can take you to the North (beach, shops, restaurants) and South (beach, etc.) ends of the island as well as has multiple stops including Bridge Street where there are a number of unique shops, places to eat, and the marina. So much to do and see! In addition, it is a short walk to a grocery store. Loved coming back from the beach to rinse off in the heated outside shower before jumping into the heated pool to enjoy the afternoon sun. Lastly, I can't say enough about this property owner; he was responsive and informative regarding the property as well as recommendations for Anna Maria Island. Typically, we prefer to try other locations but have booked a return trip to this property in 2024.
This is a great property. Clean, close to beach and has everything you need for your stay. The hosts were awesome and I highly recommend this property. This was my first time using VRBO and it was an awesome experience
What an amazing home, spotless clean, decorated beautifully and stocked with everything you need for a large group. Marissa and Olaf's attention to detail for a vacation rental deserves five stars plus!!!
Our group of 7 adults were very pleased with Olaf and Marissa’s home! Everything was exactly as presented plus more! Comfy and spacious, every bed very comfortable! Centrally located on the island, easy access to the beaches and restaurants. We had a fantastic time and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a perfect home base to explore the island from.
Areca Cove is a wonderful place to stay with family or friends. The accommodation's are great and the hosts are wonderful. Will most definitely be booking again!
I had never seen a listing with with all 5 star reviews. Now I can add mine to the list. Our family and friends made beautiful memories during our time at Areca Cove. From the moment we got there, Marisa and Olaf were available and responsive to anything that came up, including hurricane Ian! They were definitely looking out for our safety and well being. Awesome experience, highly recommended.
Kids loved the pool and the close walk to the beach. House was clean and comfortable! Thanks!!
As advertised and owners were great to work with
Our family had a great time at Olaf’s house. There was space for us to spread out, well outfitted kitchen, great beach toys, and comfortable beds. The toiletries were a nice touch. Olaf was available for anything we needed. We would definitely stay here again!
We love this house! The location is perfect and the owners are fantastic! Will definitely be returning!!
This was by far the best rental property I've ever stayed in. The home was immaculate, well-maintained, and the communication with the owners was incredible. They were responsive to questions and needs and were wonderful to work with. We had plenty of space for our group of 4 adults and 4 kids/teens. My only suggestion would be to add some hooks on the back of the bathroom door in second floor master to help with hanging bathroom towels. Honestly, the home could not have been better. I can't wait to rent again!
I don't typically leave reviews, but this property, and the owners, deserve to be recognized. We picked this property over others because of the reviews, and they did not disappoint!! 5 stars!
The house was amazing! Very well taken care of, clean and comfortable. The owner met us for check in and was very helpful. At one point the grill required more gas, and he was incredibly quick at getting this replaced. Right near trolley stop and 5 minute walk to the beach. Perfect!
We had a great time at Areca Cove. There were originally 6 in our group but the grandparents dropped out last minute for health reasons. The house was big enough for all 6 of us. All linens were provided as well as beach gear. This was much appreciated as we flew in from NC. The house was clean, well-stocked and perfectly located. Thanks for a great stay!
