Dockside Paradise

Home away from home!
Home away from home! Newly updated, light and bright, fully outfitted included grill, bikes, beach towels, beach chairs, umbrella and wagon. Great location, just a short walk to AM beaches, eating and shopping. Dock on the canal was perfect for fishing and bird watching. Easy entry for our rented paddle boards and kayaks leading to Bimini Bay… dolphins at dusk every night. Made good use of the outdoor shower. Management company was easy to work with. Would definitely stay again!

Great House, Great Location
This is my third time staying at this specific property, but my first review. We love the location (so close to the Gulf on both sides of the island), the family feel of this home, and, of course, the pool. We bring our own kayaks and launch from the property into the canals (we also see manatee from the dock in the morning and evening!). It's walking distance to the beach, restaurants, and shops, too. We've rented at some other homes on Anna Maria Island when this one wasn't available, but weren't terribly impressed, which is why we returned here in 2023 and are looking forward to a week here next year.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The backyard was gorgeous and had great energy... we stayed out by the pool as much as we could! Loved being right on the canal.

The home had plenty of space for us, and we appreciated all the special decor touches. The neighborhood was very quiet.. and we loved being able to quickly walk to Pine street shops... as well as the short walk to the bay and gulf beaches.

We’re already talking about coming back next year for another girls’ retreat.

Chefs Kiss!
I chose this home for a week getaway with my daughters. I stay in a lot of rental properties and this by far is my favorite property. From the pool area, to the dock and view of the canal to the cute jelly fish paintings in the garage, that my daughter found so beautiful. The kitchen is very spacious and stocked. Paddle boards were a nice touch and fun to use in the canal! We cant wait to come back! The property management team was kind and made everything easy.

Nice cean property is a great location
This property worked out great for us. The location is perfect. An easy walk to the beach or to Pine Street for shopping. And there are beach chairs, beach towels, an umbrella and a wagon to transport them, in the garage. The canal is at the back of the house so we went kayaking and paddle boarding too. The rental shop for that gear is just up the street and they deliver. Oh yes, I’ll be staying at this house again!

Extended stay bliss!
My wife and I stayed here for three months while waiting for our new home. So glad we did! We practically became locals. It was so relaxing and peaceful. This home is close to everything. We ended up walking or using the provided beach cruisers to go almost everywhere! Kayaks are included as well that can be launched right from the property's private dock. My wife and dad had a close encounter with a manatee using the kayaks right behind the house! We saw manatees almost everyday! We joined the community center / gym that is right around the corner. They provide free weights, machine weights, treadmills, stair steppers, yoga classes, spin classes, pickle ball and tennis. My wife really enjoyed the classes she attended and felt right at home. We highly recommend this place!

Home away from home
My family had such a great time staying here. It had everything we needed whether we were kayaking or walking to the beach to see the sunset. I couldn't get my kids out of the pool which is heated and has a light display at night. Manatees off the dock in the morning were a highlight. The whole family was sad to leave.
