Great location right on the beach, lots of space for 5 of us in the condo, and we could easily walk across the street for coffee in the morning and drinks/dinner at night.
The condo was a great place to stay while we were attending spring training games in the area. The communication with the property managers was delightful and helpful. The location was within walking distance to very good restaurants. Would definitely stay there again.
Our second time renting here. We just love it! Family friendly. Steps from the beach and water. Spectacular ocean views. Convenient parking. Walk to restaurants, shops and dolphin watching tours. We will be back!
My wife and three of our four kids (18, 15, 14) spent a week and couldn’t be happier. The private balcony right on the beach was spectacular. The condo was clean and spacious. Exactly as advertised. It’s a bit quieter north in Holmes Beach (10 minute drive), but we thoroughly enjoyed Bridge Street, which is right out the front door. Highly recommend this property.
The Best part of the Island is in your front yard and back. The beach was amazing and just feet away from Bridge st., where we shopped, mini golf, ice cream and even could fish off the dock.The sunsets were amazing! Will definitely be going back. The days felt long because everything is right there, so much to do. 5 stars out of 5 stars!
Location, Location, Location!! Perfect. Views amazing! Two parking spaces and right on the gulf! Views were amazing!! We will definitely be staying here again. My family loved it!!
Thanks for a GREAT vacation!!!
Steps from the beach steps from the shops. Couldn’t have asked for a more perfect location. We stayed in unit 6 which was the top floor and the view was perfect. Condo has an elevator which is great. Unit was really clean and well Kept. We will return!
Couldn't ask for a better location to enjoy the beach and have plenty of walkable stores and restaurants. This unit is in good shape but could use a few upgrades. Nothing that would effect your stay. The antiquated key box needs to be replaced with a electronic keypad.
This condo is at such a perfect location. Great unit very comfortable and cute. It had absolutely everything we needed. Ceilings look like there was some recent work and needs a little cosmetic repair but nothing that took away from how great this unit was. The property is small which never made the beach feel crowded. The unit itself was perfect size for a family of 4 with teens. Close to everything- can't wait to come back and would love to stay in unit 6 again.
We loved our stay, right on the beach! We were able to enjoy the ambiance from our balcony when we didn’t want to get sandy, or walk right out onto the beach when we did. Walking distance to restaurants was also a plus. The unit was as advertised. The unit improvement I would suggest would be to have a box of tissues and a few very basic spices (salt and pepper) on hand. I didn’t expect them based on the listing but it would have been a nice touch.
Our vacation was wonderful! The location, views, and property overall were great. We were able to check in a couple hours early, and the management team was very responsive via text and made sure everything was going well. The ceilings in the kitchen and bathroom were torn apart and appear to have been water damaged, so although it didn't look great, it didn't impact our stay. The doorwall was also very difficult to open and close (probably lodged with sand). Overall everything was clean and would definitely stay again.
This was a Girls' weekend at the beach. All of us are over 65, and like to party, so being able to walk over to Bridge Street to listen to music and have drinks and dinner was wonderful. The condo was equipped with everything we needed except beach supplies. 4 beach chairs and an umbrella or two would go a long way to make this absolutely perfect! We had friends visit us a few times, so the underground parking was so nice. Parking is scarce in this area of AMI so very nice to have. We got our groceries through Instacart from Publix which was only a 2 hour process and we didn't have to leave the balcony. Refrigerator is a nice size and the icemaker is wonderful.The four of us had more than enough room. Can't wait to come back here and bring my granddaughters!
Comfortable and clean beach condo with great location! Condo is lovingly decorated with a well stocked kitchen utensils and cooking items. Convenient access to beach and super easy walk to Bridge Street! Pool is partially covered by parking garage, but a nice break from the sun for a refreshing swim. Would stay here again!
Condo was nicely furnished. The most equipped kitchen I have ever seen in a rental.The view and space on balcony was great. Walk to beach was just a short distance.Something unusual for us was being so close to all the restaurants and shops, we actually loved it. Our first visit to AMI and we will be back.
