Celine Girard

Member since 2021

Year Purchased: 2021

About the owner: We're a family of four who absolutely loves to travel, so we understand precisely what makes for an unforgettable vacation. I'm Celine, and I'll be your host during your stay. My husband Giscard and I are both French from the Acadian coast of New Brunswick, Canada where we reside with our two wonderful sons Luka and Xavier.

We purchased our stunning dream home on Anna Maria Island because it's our favorite vacation spot. With the demands of our hectic jobs and lively sons, we wanted a place where we could create lasting family memories.

For leisure, we love to go boating, fishing, and golfing, as well as explore the hidden gems of popular vacation destinations. We also enjoy relaxing with a delicious glass of wine, locally crafted beer, and excellent cuisine.

As a family of travelers, we understand exactly what you're looking for in a peaceful yet unforgettable vacation. We take great pride in our rental properties and always ensure that our guests have a remarkable stay. We sincerely hope that you enjoy our vacation home as much as we do!

Why this property? We bought Calico, our dream beach house in 2021. We fell in love with Anna Maria Island, like many do, during our first visit. Calico is the perfect home for our family and friends and we know it will be the same for our guests.

We are hands on hosts. We love our home and have re-furnished, renovated and fully equipped the property. We like the best when we travel so we ensured our guests would have the same.

I have been doing property management/rentals since 2006 and I simply love hosting. I take pride of my rental properties and I always want to make sure that my guests have a memorable stay.

We hope you enjoy our vacation home as much as we do!

Guestbook comments from the host:

We love this place so much! Our stay was absolutely wonderful, and the hosts are very responsive and always there to answer any questions! The house felt like a home away from home!! We will definitely book again!


Aug 2022

The Calico House is a wonderful destination with everything we needed to enjoy our week on AMI! Celine has thought of everything and then some! The house is beautifully furnished and decorated, the kitchen is well stocked, and the beach gear was an added bonus. We loved visiting the beaches during the day and then lounging around the pool at night. The home is conveniently located to many restaurants and just a short walk to the beach. We rented a golf cart which makes it easy to get from one end of the island to the other.
Highly recommend Celine's Calico House! You will not be disappointed!


Jun 2022

Perfect location! Walking distance to the beach that is easy! House is very accommodating and comfortable. Hostess is great to communicate with and responds promptly. We enjoyed the pool during the day and sunsets at the beach during the evening. Looking forward to visiting again. Highly recommended!


May 2022

Loved it!
We rented this property for Spring Break 2022. There are two master bedrooms with full baths, which was perfect for two couples. Plenty of space for kids or other guests as well. The house is spacious and clean. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you would need to cook or grill. The elevator was convenient to bring our luggage up and down. We rented a golf cart and never even needed our rental car once we got to the house. The location is perfectly central, in between all of the touristy areas, very close to the beach (a few minutes walk), but in a quiet area. Even though the house backs up to a main road, we didn't notice the traffic noise at all. The pool area is well-maintained, very pretty and relaxing after a day at the beach. The owner is SO sweet and quick to respond. There was no question she truly wanted us to enjoy our stay, and we did!


Apr 2022

We shared the home with another family and it was a wonderful experience. Plenty of room for both families! House is very clean, in great shape and exactly as described online. The owner (Celine) is very responsive and great. The location is very close to beach, stores and restaurants (can walk to stores and several nearby restaurants). We hope to return some day!


Mar 2022

This place is just perfect. We sadly spent only one week but would’ve stayed a month! We were to be 4 couples, one got sick and returned home during the drive down. Plenty of space, beautiful pool and patio room. Everything you want is there! Celine is awesome to assist and they must be on the tall side as I could only reach first level if the cabinets. You will have NO regrets staying at this place


Mar 2022

Our family of six stayed at the beautiful Calico the week after Christmas. The home is beautiful, spacious, and pretty much everything that Celine advertises. She was a wonderful hostess and very much attentive to any needs or communication we had. We enjoyed the home, the pool, the games, the grill, the beach wagon, and all necessities that came with it. The ability to walk to the beach in just a couple of steps was amazing! Would definitely recommend it and yes we would stay here again!


Dec 2021

This place was awesome!! Very clean, spacious house just steps from the beach! Our family had a great time playing ping pong, swimming in the heated pool, hanging out on the upstairs deck, and just having such a comfortable place to call our home base during the vacation. I was an airbnb host for 3 years myself so can confidently say Celine checked all the boxes to make our stay wonderful! We will definitely be coming back! Highly recommend!


Nov 2021

We had a wonderful stay here at Calico. Celine really does it right!! Everything was very clean and all the rooms were huge with super comfy beds. The house has an elevator which we didn't realize at first which makes packing up much easier. She had everything you would need to go to the beach with so keep that in mind. Tvs in every room with netflix was great. The house is just 1 block from the ocean and the little beachside restaurant for drinks and food. The pool was fantastic and heated which was nice after a long day. There's also a ping-pong table and cornhole if you are into that. We will definitely stay here again. Very relaxing, quiet and peaceful! Thanks again Celine!


Nov 2021

The house is amazing and central to everything including the beach (literally 400 steps away) grocery shopping, the free trolley stop and restaurants.

Celine was quick with answers to questions and a dream to work with. She checked in with us to make sure everything was good and left us a great digital book with recommendations in the area. We can’t wait to return for another stay.
