Beach View Retreat! 5BR Home with Pool, Spa, Rooftop Deck and Walk to Beach

The house was in a great location! Easy access to the beach, trolly and groceries. The pool was a favorite for all with space for kids to play and the adults to hang out as well and a sun shelf for a baby to play as well. Had some issues with the fridge ice machine but they delivered ice daily to accommodate which was amazing! Could use a few baby items at the house. We left a pack n play and baby walker so hopefully they stay at the house. Other then that the house had everything we needed and the property managers were very responsive. Would definitely stay again!

Stayed for a week with family. Enough room for everyone to spread out or gather together. Loved the location close to public beach and grocery. The backyard with pool and spa was a favorite for all. House is furnished with comfortable bedding and towels. Many looked brand new. We cooked in most evening and kitchen had everything we needed. The floors could use a good cleaning. Overall, we loved our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to return again.

While the home has some charm, it is dated and needs refreshing. Maintained backyard pool, quality linens and towels, well equipped kitchen are positives, broken blinds, ripped and dirty drapes and floors that left your bare feet filthy are negatives.

Great place. 5 bedrooms 4 bathrooms. Very nice kitchen, fenced in pool area with an outdoor kitchen/grill, tables and chairs along with 4 loungers to relax and catch some sun. The beach is a one block walk. Quick responses from both owner and rental company.

We had a beautiful vacation on Anna Maria Island ?️. The house exceeded our expectations. For a group of 10, there was plenty of space, fully functional kitchen, the washer/dryer was helpful for many sandy/salty towels, and the pool/hot tub were awesome. It’s a quick walk to the beach. Book a stay here. You won’t be disappointed!

Nine of us stayed for the week of June 8. Kids were 2,6,& 8 with 6 adults. The layout was just right for us. The pool and shade area was great for afternoon swims when it was too hot at the beach. Manatee public beach with all of the amenities was just across the street. Inside the house the furniture was not too formal and not too cheap. We didn’t have to worry with the children. The large coffee table has a puzzle going on it the whole week. We would be happy to stay here again! Management was available by text and very responsive to our few extra needs. *The floors could be cleaner but the bathrooms and kitchen were perfect.

This place was excellent! The proximity to the beach made this trip excellent! We could walk to the store if we needed anything, and ride the free trolley around the island. The house was perfect! We loved all the beach chairs and wagon. Pool was beautiful!

We spent a wonderful week at Beach View Retreat. The house was fully stocked, very clean and easily accommodated our family. The beach was right across the street. A beach cart was provided which made it easy to cart all our stuff. The pool, hot tub and patio were a great place to have afternoon drinks before going to dinner. We would definitely stay there again. Can’t wait to go back.

This place has potential. This house has all the basics, but there is no attention to detail…..Here are my suggestions for the owner. 1. The house needs a deep clean. There are bedrooms that have such filthy windows, baseboards, doors knobs, kitchen cabinets. 2. The kitchen needs a complete inventory. We planned to eat most of our meals in, as there were nine in our family. Not enough flatware for us to all eat without taking turns. I let management know and received another set right away. I also had to ask for plastic drinking cups as I didn’t want to hand the kids glass goblets to drink from and risk breaking. What is there, seems like random junk left by previous guests. 3. If you decide to visit here, bring your own scatter rugs. Not a single rug in the entire house….not even the front door, so you have endless white tiled floors, lots of sand and no barrier to stop it from coming in. By the end of day one, I could already feel the grit under my feet (imagine 5 kids coming in and out from the beach and not a rug to wipe your feet on. This meant I spent way too much vacation time sweeping floors (the broom needs to be replaced too). By day three, I made a Walmart run and bought rugs. 4. When the pool filter blew up (not an exaggeration) I let management know immediately. It took almost the entire week we were there, to fix. They kept the chemicals flowing and said we could still use it. By Friday, 3 in our group had chemical burns. We will not be returning.

Property in great conditions. Clean, spacious, comfortable. Bathrooms in good conditions. Location is wonderful, near the beach. The pool was clean. Only the BBQ was not that clean. Our stay was great. I would definitely recommend this property
