Our family of 10 had a great vacation at Blue Sky! The house was perfect, everything worked great and it was well stocked with everything that could have been required. A few parts of the house that we felt really added to the stay was it's close proximity to the beach, the garage with chairs, inflatables, and a beach cart, the great pool that was always half sun and half shade, and the front patio with rocking chairs. Really, it was just perfect for all of us! Working with Missy during the rental process went very smoothly and she was very accessible and communicative throughout the entire process, and I would recommend the house whole-heartedly! Finally, it was great to see the entire AMI community bouncing back from the hurricanes last year. For the most part the island is back to normal and if anyone is worried about how it may impact their time on vacation I would tell them not to worry about it.
Great sunset!!
The white sand beach is fantastic!

Amazing Week at Blue Sky

Our family could not have been happier with our week at Blue Sky. The location of the house was perfect. We were able to walk to the beach with the kids and beach gear. There was plenty of space for everyone and the house was very clean. The kids also had a blast playing in the pool.

The PERFECT Beach House Rental

We were visiting Anna Maria Island for the very first time and celebrating graduations and birthdays with family from all over the country. This house was so much like a home away from home and everyone had their own space… it was wonderfully well equipped in all areas, the kitchen, pool, floats, beach, chairs, and umbrellas. It was wonderfully clean, and all of the instructions were clear to make moving in and moving out a seamless and efficient process.The owner was lovely and always available for communicating when needed… It was a perfect location and it was truly the perfect beach house! No one wanted to leave and everyone wants to come back to this exact house!! Thank you so much for sharing your lovely home!

2 Young familes and grandparents

The layout of the home was perfect for our needs. While Grandma and Grandpa stayed on the main floor, each young family had bedrooms and bathrooms on their own floor. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes so you don't have to constantly wash dishes. The pool size was perfect and was well supplied with floaties and toys. The garage was stocked with beach supplies - toys, 2 wagons, 2 coolers, chairs and umbrellas. On top of it all, the beach is only a block away!

Enjoyed our stay

House is in a perfect location steps away from the beach! The pool is perfect size with an actual hot tub that gets hot :) Living areas and bedrooms are comfortable for entire group we had of 5 adults and 4 teenagers. We have been to AMI multiple times and always enjoy the island! Sometimes it has felt crazy busy everywhere during spring break and didn’t seem as crowded this year. I’m sure was effect of hurricanes but for the most part everything seemed back to business as usual with restaurants and shops open.

Adult Children Family Trip

We had a nice time staying at Blue Sky. Our three adult sons and their S/O's had plenty of room and the location was perfect! Missy's home was well stocked for cooking and two beach wagons were available for hauling our grand baby, beach chairs and toys the short distance to the beach. Missy was prompt in responding to any questions that arose! Overall, a wonderful home and location!

We had so much fun at the Blue Sky house! The house was perfect for our week long stay with six adults and four kids. Our stay was amazing—close to the beach, within walking distance to the free trolly, and we got to enjoy the beautiful AMI sunsets every night! Missy was an awesome host! We would definitely come back! Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy your beautiful house, Missy!

Amazing Thanksgiving week!

We just spent an amazing Thanksgiving week in AMI. There were 10 of us and the house was perfect for family fun! We were a bit worried about our trip after the hurricanes this Fall but Missy was so communicative with us prior to our arrival and then worked so hard to make sure everything was absolutely perfect during our stay! This home has the BEST location if you want fast and direct access to the beach and the pool and hot tub were such a bonus for us! The AMI locals are super kind and gracious and we were all amazed by the island’s resilience after the storms! I highly recommend this property and a vacation in AMI! Thank you Missy & Family!

This place was a DREAM! I walked by the first time we stayed in Anna Maria and knew I wanted to stay there. It did not disappoint. Plenty of space for all, the pool was perfect for all ages, and the spa was just the thing we needed after a day of entertaining the kids. The walk to beach is easy, and the drive to everything else in short. Couldn’t ask for better!
