Property was well furnished and very relaxing. Close to the beach with a short ride, many good restaurants, but far enough away to get plenty of quiet time.
We really enjoyed our stay at Tropical Reef! Spacious and comfortable, well appointed kitchen, many towels, and a great pool. The home is beautiful and decor is perfect for Florida. Would love to stay here again!
Tropical Reef was just as described on the rental site and did not disappoint. The home is very welcoming and beautifully decorated. The location is close to the island and other locations we planned to visit. The neighborhood was quiet and charming. The pool area was perfect for swimming and lovely morning coffee time. Overall, no complaints from us.
This home has everything you need for a perfect vacation. The home was immaculate, well stocked, perfect location to the beach and amenities. Dealing with the property managers was easy and they answered all our questions immediately. Five Star Property !!
We had a great stay, house was in a quiet neighborhood, a short drive to everything. House is spacious and has everything you could need.
Only thing that I could say needs improvements in the carpet has some large stains and the pool deck was a bit dirty other than that the house was very clean. Would stay again for sure!!!
The stay was perfect! Everything you can ask for you had. The Pool and it's views were the best part of this beautiful home. Extra locks and alarms on the sliding glass doors was a plus and they worked out great!! I can't say enough about the peaceful neighborhood and all the wild life we saw right in the back yard just sitting on the patio. Thank you for a wonderful vacation home!!!
This is a nice house in a nice neighborhood. I've been looking to buy here for a while now. It was good to live there for a week and try it out! I would stay here again. If owners would like to sell, let me know! 😄
Overall it was extremely pleasant. The neighborhood was very quiet and the circle where this house was located had very well kept homes. The outer perimeter not so much, but we always felt safe and secure.
We enjoyed the quick ride to Anna Maria and surrounding beaches. We spent the mornings at the ocean and afternoons floating in the pool. The house had everything we needed and nicely supplied with the essentials. Everyone slept comfortably and the house was immaculate. Very responsive communication and easy check in/check out. My one suggestion would be to review the items available for the beach and replace/update worn chairs/umbrellas as needed.
On arrival our original rental property was not suitable to stay in due to unplanned construction in adjoining property . Island Dreams Reality checked the issue immediately after we advised them of the problem, Understanding our problem they found us several alternative properties and even allowed us to view the area/house before we moved. They met us at the new property twice to ensure we were happy and safely moved in. We cannot praise them enough for their help and excellent customer service which literally saved our holiday. 10/10 for Island Dreams Reality
Lovely, spacious villa in an amazing location. Close to the beaches on Anna Maria Island, restaurants and shops. The villa was spotlessly clean with everything you could want for a great holiday. Lots of crockery, pans etc and a good supply of beach equipment. A small issue with the lanai being loose in places which meant some bugs got through and we all got quite badly bitten. We didn’t sit out most evenings once we realised which was a shame. That said we would highly recommend this villa. Contact with the property management company was excellent and they were very accommodating and quick to respond to any queries. When we go to Florida next year we would have no hesitation in booking this villa again.
AWESOME! Highly recommend. Very close to the beaches, pool was large and heated. House was nice, view overlooking the lakes-beautiful. Home owners were friendly and responsive. There are lots of pool inflatables and all the beach supplies we needed.
We stayed for 6 nights and were very happy with the property. Exactly as advertised and well stocked with everything we needed. Great pool area and quiet neighborhood. Super close to the beaches and lots of stores and restaurants. Nice to have the beach gear and also the pool toys and floaters. Thanks for a great stay!
Beautiful Home in a quite neighborhood. The home had everything you could need or want. Fantastic area close to everything beaches , shops and restaurants . Home layout, decor, beds everything was perfect! The pool was fantastic. Not a single complaint could be made!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!!!
The house is awesome! Right on a lpond, clean, and with all the amenities we needed, including a plethora of linens and cookware.
We relaxed in the awesome pool, grilled and saw marine birds in the water next to the house. There were plenty of beach supplies, including chairs and umbrellas. Our hosts were very responsive and helpful. This is a great place!
