Relaxing beach vacation

The house is fantastic with lots of amenities and a very short walk to the beach. My husband and I bounced between the beach and the pool area every day. Thank you for an amazing stay!

Love this location

Walk to the beach for sunsets, midway between Pine St AMI and Bradenton Beach. Easy walk or bike ride to entertainment and eating options, nice options in back yard (bbq, fire pit, pool, hammock). Have to say on shortcomings is arrived with barely any toilet paper or papertowels or garbage bags...I hate buying that stuff on vacation...otherwise great.

A Terrific Vacation Experience!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Anna Maria Island. The house and premises were beautiful and we were super close to everything, in all directions. The backyard oasis and pool were spactious and relaxing. The house was very accommodating and had everything we needed.

Incredible Location, Comfy House, Great Pool. Needs Some Updates

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I'll make this one easy for you:1) you'll be about a 30 second walk to the beach entrance. 2) the 2-bedroom house will sleep 4 wonderfully. I wouldn't want more than that.3) the balcony was a joy in the mornings and evenings.4) the pool (and in fact the whole back yard) is not done justice by the photos. It was great.5) The kitchen was ready to search for things, and be a little underwhelmed by what you find (not strange for a rental, but still). Little things like a comically bad toaster seem small...unless you need a toaster. The ice maker was a champion though.6) The laundry room is shared with your neighbor...may not be a big deal for you, but worth noting.7) The beach gear provided is pretty janky...bring your own if you can.8) Unless you're intending to spend a lot of time in the north side of the island, I don't think a golf cart rental is needed. The location is really good - close to bars, shops, ice cream, etc. ...and that's really it. If you have two families of four...I highly recommend renting both duplexes.

Great Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great rental and our favorite location. It is close to the beach and convenient to the public beach and shopping. The back yard and pool are wonderful. They are shared with the conjoined house. The house has everything you need for a comfortable stay and was very clean. It is an older home that has mostly been redone, except for the main bath, which really needs to be. The management company was great to work with.

Close to beach and beautiful pool

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is located about a 3 min. walk away from the beautiful beach. The pool and backyard are beautiful and well maintained and there are plenty of pool toys, beach chairs, etc. The kitchen is well equipped. My only complaints are the matresses are cheap, hard and very uncomfortable and the sheets are like sandpaper. The twin beds in the second bedroom didn't even have head boards. They really need to update the beds in this rental. The tub in the bathroom hardly drained and we ended up having to plunge it twice. The bathroom window was also missing a curtain and the neighbors could see right in at night from their crows nest. A few simple changes would take this rental from good to great.

Repeat vacationers

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really love Salamander. It is beautifully located, has a beautiful pool, and is managed very well by Island Vacation Properties. We have been coming for 7 years and enjoy it greatly. Only two glitches. Living room furniture needs upgraded. It is not equal to rest of the place. And WIFI is not strong in unit. Minor problems, but would be nice.
