Couples retreat
We really enjoyed our stay there, the home was decorated nicely and was fully stocked with all the essentials needed for a hone away from home stay. We had ample enough rooms for the four couples to stay the only two things that I would recommend for this housing would be that if possible add tv's to the other two bedrooms. We had two couples that didn't have tv's in their rooms and it turned out that these couples both sleep with tv's on. We didn't know until we got there and discovered this. But overall we would return even if we have to bring tablets to look at tv. Would recommend for the twin bed room maybe switch out for a full size sofa bed or a day bed sleeper for the room . But loved the overall stay. Thanks for everything hope to become a regular summer retreat stay

Great house and location!
We took a girls trip to Stay Anchored and it did not disappoint! The house and pool were gorgeous. There was plenty of room for the four of us and the house was so close to beautiful Sombrero beach which we took full advantage of. We had great communication with the hosts and we would happily stay there again!

Nice relaxing get away
Nice place for 6 adults! Close to stores and grocery stores. Very clean house. We didn't have any issues while we were there. If we had to be picky about anything - maybe some patio furniture cushions - otherwise plenty of outdoor seating!!
