Pets considered ONLY with 28 day minimum rental during months of October-April. Non-refundable pet fee. Pet MUST be listed on reservation.

Golf Cart Rental: There is no exterior charging available for electric golf carts. GAS GOLF CARTS must be used. NO Exceptions.

Pool heat is complementary between November 15 & April 15. Our pool and pool equipment are closely monitored for your safety, we kindly ask that the controls not be tampered with. Due to the island's strict 10pm noise ordinance, the pool heaters will not run overnight, we do our best to ensure that the pool is heated to a temperature of 82 degrees. However, please be aware that even in Florida we do occasionally get cold spells that can send the temperatures in 40's & 50's for a few nights in a row. This will cause the pool water temp to draw down to the 70's and the pool pump will shut down if the outside temp gets too cold. The pump will then kick back on in the morning and begin re-heating of the pool back to 82, which may take some time depending on air temps.

Please note that during Feb, Mar, June, July & Aug we request Saturday to Saturday rentals. Please contact us if you have alternative dates prior to a reservation request. We may also be able to accommodate your dates, based on other bookings.

Guests MUST complete & RETURN completed lease agreement. ANY LEASE NOT COMPLETED 1 WEEK PRIOR TO CHECK-IN WILL RESULT IN CANCELLATION OF RESERVATION & REFUND (minus administrative fee). All guests pay all fees associated with their stay. This includes taxes, cleaning, VRBO service charge and online payment fee. GUESTS HAVE NO ACCESS TO GARAGE.

Perfect Stay

We had a great time at this property (2 adults and 2 kids). It had everything we needed and the beach cart and chairs were especially helpful and made getting to the beach with everything we needed so easy. It was exactly as described and the central location made it easy to get anywhere on the island quickly. Would definitely stay here again.

AMI Family Getaway

House had all the amenities my family could need. Space to spread out, comfy beds, well appointed kitchen, and a pool! I couldn't rate it 5 stars because of the location...its a corner lot on the main street, not included on the listing, and exact address is only provided after booking. We stayed over a holiday weekend and even though there is folage for privacy, there was constant traffic noise. Overall we enjoyed the island and will be back in the near future.

Cute and Clean

The home is very cute and so clean! My 3 and 4 year old girls loved all the pink! They called it the Barbie dream house because of all the pink. The home is very well appointed and equipped with absolutely everything you need for a perfect stay on AMI! The beach is a quick 3 blocks away and the back yard is very tropical with great landscaping and a new smaller pool. The pool was perfect for our girls learning to swim as it wasn’t too deep. There was road noise but we played music in the back yard when we were enjoying the pool and it made the road noise very reduced. All in all another great year on AMI!

We had a lovely stay with our family of four! The beach is just a short walk down the road, but we enjoyed the pool so much that we spent a lot of time there. The beds were comfortable, and the location was great. The owner was very responsive and was able to let us check in a little early, which we really appreciated after a long day of traveling with little ones. We would definitely book again!

Cutest pink house exactly as described. Location is perfect! The house is stocked with EVERYTHING. Susan is a five star host. During our stay there was a bad storm that caused the ac to stop working. Susan came over right away and had it fixed immediately. She’s as lovely as her pink house and goes above and beyond to ensure your stay is perfect. Can’t wait to book this property again.

Beyond Perfect

We had a wonderful stay at this location. Everything matched exactly to the listing on VRBO. Perfect location and space for our family to walk to the beach and a short walk to a few of the restaurants in AMI. Susan is an excellent host and immediately addressed a small issue with one of the showers that we noticed on arrival. We also have family in Bradenton which made it easy for us to get together and enjoy all that AMI offers. We will be definitely be staying here again in the future.
