PERFECT AND BEAUTIFUL RENTAL
Where do I start? This is a beautifully decorated with amazing location beach home where it is obvious that the owners care about their rental property. Decorated in beachy vibe, lots of bathrooms, super comfy beds in all of the bedrooms, fully stocked kitchen and I mean FULLY STOCKED. Anything you could possibly need to bake, cook, make coffee via pot or Keurig, water and ice from the fridge, beach chairs, bikes, washer & dryer, etc. The pool is gorgeous, lighted up beautifully at night with two super nice showers outside too. There is not a thing you could possibly need or want in a rental, except for groceries of course. Just a block or two from private beach access, soft white sand, beautiful ocean with gentle waves, clear blue water, amazing vibe and atmosphere. The owners are wonderful and friendly. Anna Maria Island is the BEST place to go in FL on the Gulf side. I cannot say enough good things about it but I am running out of space. Hurry up and book this gorgeous home!!!
