The check in process was a breeze. The house was beautiful and the kitchen had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable also. The outdoor area and pool were wonderful. We had a blast, especially my 10 year old granddaughter. Beautiful place to stay and close to the beach. We loved it here. Book it, you will not regret it.

Great AMI Location

This property is spacious and ideally located. It’s an easy walk to the beach and the Rod & Reel Pier. The backyard pool area is beautiful. There are four bedrooms so it’s a great place for families. Everything we needed was provided and we enjoyed every minute of our stay.

Summer fun on Anna Maria Island

Wonderful week on Anna Maria Island. This house is closer to the bay so ocean access a little far, however, we had golf carts and found a shorter beach access. Pool area very lovely and functional for our group. We highly recommend Starfish cottage.

From start to finish booking was extremely easy and we'll worth the money. We were very close to the water, and having our own pool was awesome. House was clean and looked well maintained.

The property was exactly as listed. It is in a fabulous location one house from the Rod’ n Reel pier. The pool is bigger than it looks in the pictures. It is an older FL home, but offered everything we needed for a great stay.

Great and comfortable home within walking distance to the beach

Very comfortable and spacious home for a family of 8 adults. Very well equipped kitchen! Within walking distance to beach, which is not crowded at all due to it being in the North point location. I would consider renting it again.

Great family week

This house in close proximity to the beach as well as the iconic Rod and Reel restaurant served our family well. The adequate kitchen and gas grill made for some fine seafood meals at home, and it was an easy walk to Anna Maria village. Pool was perfect. No problems with WiFi.

Great vacation property in fantastic location

We spend our Christmas break at this property on Anna Maria Island. Great experience all around. Property was fantastic and the service from the agency was top notch! A minor recommendation on how to improve the experience at the property would be to install stronger outdoor lighting in the backyard. This will help with the BBQ in the evening, especially during the winter months...

Excellent stay. Plenty of space for 6 of us! Nice pool and private backyard. Nice amount of starter items for kitchen, laundry and bathroom. Beds were super cozy and the bedding fresh and clean smelling! Perfect walking distance to Rod and Reel where we ate several times and saw dolphin and mana rays daily! Thank you to the home owners for having us! We will be back to the island in the future for sure!

Enjoyed our stay in April

The property was great, nicer in person. Could have used more Tupperware for nights we cooked at home. The pool company left the water running all day and by the time we got there the first night the pool area was flooded, but we just swept it up and it quickly dried out. No complaints otherwise.
