Great Family Time5 Stars

This house was great for our 3 generation family including 2 teenagers. The well supplied kitchen was wonderful to prepare our meals. Bedrooms on three levels meant everyone was able to have their own space. The beach is just a short walk away but a beautiful pool is only a few steps out the door. Perfect spring break.

By FarThe Best House Ever!

We come to AMI every year and this house has been the best one we have ever stayed at. The proximity to the beach was fabulous and we loved the pool/hot tub as well. The only thing was that the master bedroom on the middle floor was very warm and it was hard to creep. It was 90+ degrees though so that may have had something to do with it. The kitchen was very well stocked and we had everything we needed. I would definitely stay here again.

Blue Palm Paradise

Blue Palm Paradise was a great find and I would stay here again! It is super close to the beach, and has a beautiful pool. There were some small inconveniences which were immediately addressed by the management team. There are some things the owners could do to make things even better, but it's nothing that would prevent me from renting again.

Family Vacation

Perfect location and so close to the beach! We went to the beach daily then came back and took advantage of the pool. Plenty of beach chairs, toys and a wagon to use. Beautiful home and exactly as pictured. Plenty of room and ideal layout for our family vacation (which included small children). Kitchen was well stocked (plates, glassware, pans, etc.) Also, ample pillows, blankets, towels and beach towels. We had a great time (wish we could have stayed longer)!!! Can't wait to return!

Perfect House for family gathering

The house is beautifully laid out with lots of space for alone time and gathering time. The proximity to the beach is awesome and the pool/spa are a welcomed addition. We hosted Thanksgiving dinner for 15 family members with lots of room for cooking and eating. Only downside was that there was absolutely no cleaning supplies in the house which was challenging especially in the kitchen. Otherwise it was definately a place to revisit

Blue Palm was Paradise!

Home was beautiful and very well appointed. Fit our family of 7 wonderfully. Kitchen had everything we needed for meals in. We loved that there were plenty of beach chairs, an umbrella, wagon and other beach toys ready and waiting for us. The location was fantastic, 2 min walk to the beach and still centrally located to many restaurants and shops. We also made daily use of the beautiful pool and especially the spa. There was a bed linen mishap at our arrival but AMI was quick to respond and very gracious to provide a credit. We would love to rent this home in the future!

Great location - bring/rent bikes!

Absolutely loved the location and the house. There were some issues with the hot water in the upstairs master shower that were a bit confounding due to the on demand water and a shower valve that needs replacing - my wife had a couple of very cold showers but we used other bathrooms. Pool was great although controls for temp seem to be locked in (remote didn’t work). In summary though, even with these minor inconveniences we wouldn’t hesitate to rent this house again. GREAT location 1 block from beach and wonderful area for riding bikes to a variety of shops and restaurants. Loved our stay.

Great location- close to beach and restaurants

This house was a perfect fit for our family- it was a very short walk to the beach and we were able to get to many places quickly and easily with the golf cart we rented. The pool was perfect for family that didnt want to spend their day at the beach. The layout of the house allowed for people to be able to have their own space and privacy if they needed that. The house was clean and well stocked with items we needed for a week. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms had plenty of towels and accessories provided. The property manager was very responsive to questions and one small issue we had with lights not working outback. Added bonus that we could bring our labradoodle to this pet friendly house. Highly recommend this property for an enjoyable home away from home.

Nice house, but...

House is really nice. Big rooms. Beautiful furnishings. Pool is rough. Most of the equipment doesn’t work, or works poorly. Very late checkin for a rental and early requirement to check out. You basically cut 2 days off your stay by renting this house. I would not stay here again, nor recommend it.

Would stay here again

We had the best week at AMI in this house. You never know if the listing will actually be like the pictures suggest, but this one was. I can't say enough good things about this house. It's location was perfection (across the street and 3 houses in from the beach). The ceilings are tall, the beds are so comfortable, and the pool is a great size. There is a cart with beach toys and plenty of chairs to go around. (We left the beach toys we purchased, as well as a kite that we bought and didn't get around to using.) The only "complaint" would be that the twin bed bedroom door didn't shut all the way, but that room was being used by our 5 and 7 year olds so that didn't bother me. We 100% will stay here again.

Florida vacation

Nice, could use some more dishes and glassware. 7 adults used quite a bit. Pool was not clean and chlorine regulator had been turned off. When we asked about this, lots of nonsense. one day later pool person showed up and stated they had been waiting on salt to be delivered and he put in the salt and turned the regular back on. Would have been nice to have somebody just tell us that.

Great location!

Lovely and spacious home situated a short walk to sugar sand beach. There were plenty of beach chairs and other gear for us to use. Our family of 6 (and two small dogs) never felt crowded; floor plan is great for group/large family. We enjoyed the private pool/deck. Tasteful decor and well furnished property. The only exception was the clothes dryer that never worked (we packed light knowing we could do laundry during the week). Property management promptly addressed a slow shower drain but the report on the dryer was that it could not/would not be remedied during our stay : ( Management offered to help with laundry fees but we ended up using a local (extremely clean) laundromat when we had a chance, to dry our items. We enjoyed our family time together to the fullest! AMI never disappoints and we made great new memories to cherish.

Just Perfect

Such a beautiful home, steps from the beach and trolley stop. The heated pool with lil waterfalls was a perfect addition. Wonderful communication from the rental management company (very responsive and helpful) and all was just as described. We were visiting for our grandmother’s memorial (who loved the island so much) and all was so relaxing and healing. Thanks so much.
