Perfect Location!

The property manager is very attentive. This property has 3 units that share a nice pool. The decor is very beachy and bright. Just as the description states, it truly is steps from the beach. Publix is very close as are many places within walking distance. We have stayed here before and will definitely stay here again.

Location can't be beat!

We enjoyed our time while staying here. The unit was clean and well-appointed for our week long stay. The outdoor pool area was relaxing and provided a lot of fun for our little ones. Being only a block from the beach was great, especially as no busy roads were needed to be crossed. We would gladly stay here again.

Location

If you’re looking for a budget friendly house in a superb location, this is it! Minimal guests share the pool so most nights it was just my family using it. My family loved the proximity to the beach entrance and it was just far enough down from the public beach parking so as not to be crowded. Really close to grocery store and souvenir shop (walking distance), and centrally located on island between all the restaurants and entertainment. Well equipped with everything needed for a weeks stay. It checked all of our boxes which were proximity to beach, a pool, near food and entertainment and away from large condos.

Very convenient to everything

This property is very conveniently located to everything we need within walking distance. We fly so it's important to get to the grocery store, restaurants and other options. It is 1 block from the beach and 2 blocks from the shopping center. It has a nice pool and is well equipped with everything you might need.

Worst vacation property ever!!!

Worst vacation experience ever!! Property run down and dirty. Toilet broke for 3 days. Refrigerator broke for 2 days. Pool area looked like an abandoned building. Stayed for 4 weeks and pool was not cleaned for the first 3 weeks. Pool filter system did not work for 3 weeks. On line pictures of property greatly misrepresented. Complained to VRBO and requested to be compensated for days w/o toilet and refrigerator. Property manager said no. I suggest VRBO check out properties they represent before taking them on as a client. Rate this property as a minus 10. Very unhappy with our experience.

Wonderful, clean, safe, marvelous location!

We spent 6 nights at The Marlin & it was wonderful! The location can't be beat! Steps to the beach! Quiet, safe neighborhood & a clean, warm pool with plenty of patio seating, beach chairs, outdoor shower & floats for the kids. We enjoyed the convenient walk to Publix, CVS, plenty of souvenir shops, ice cream & Chinese one night. We ventured about 10 min south for mini golf & felt even happier at the location we had! We also visited South Florida Museum in Bradenton to see the manatee rescue, but mostly it was a beach, pool, sunshine break! Thank you Cheri for sharing your property so that others can enjoy just a piece of this paradise!

Quiet Retreat

The location was very good only a short walk to the ocean. And if you wanted there was cafe on the beach within walking distance which was nice for breakfast or lunch. Although the pool was clean and very nice the weather just wasn't warm enough to swim as we were there the last week in January. The kitchen had everything you would need for cooking there were even paper towels.coffee,and some spices that were probably left by previous vacationers. There were plenty of towels and wash cloths, and extra blankets for the beds if needed. We are thinking of renting the three bedroom next year and bringing along some friends. Dave DeFrank

Perfect!

The house was perfect, very clean and the property was well kept. The sunsets are amazing! The short walk down the quite road to the beach made it feel like you were on the beach front. The pool and grill area was huge compared to other properties. We love Anna Marie Island and will be back with the rest of the family. Thank you Cheri for the wonderful job you do.

Wonderful apartment in a fantastic location

This is the second time I've stayed at the Marlin and I can't wait to go back. The apartment is spacious, bright, and immaculate. It is exceptionally well-stocked if you plan to cook. It's attractively decorated and less than a minute's walk to the beach. I had a car but it's a short walk to a very good grocery store and a number of good restaurants. The pool area is nice although it was too cool to swim while I was there. Even at regular prices it's a bargain for what you get, but I benefitted from a special rate that made the rental a steal. Cheri, the manager, is very helpful and easy to work with. I love the Marlin. I can't recommend it highly enough.

Me and my wife stayed at the Marlin 202 for a long weekend getaway. We had a great weekend. The house was very nice and clean. The pool area was also very nice. The beach is only 200yds away so very easy to walk back and forth to the house. Had all your beach needs with the beach towels, chairs and umbrella. You can walk to the grocery store and other stores. We also walked to breakfast on the beach in the morning which is at Manatee beach. I would defiantly come back and stay. Thank you to Chris for all your help!

About the host

Hosted by Cheri

Why they chose this property

When I moved to the island I fell in love with the small town feel. I thought that other people would also enjoy getting to experience the tight knit community. So I set out to design the Marlin to accommodate family reunions or quick getaways. It makes me smile to be able to let someone else enjoy our island paradise. I hope that everyone that stays here will enjoy our island as much as I do and that it will be a yearly stop for many!

What makes this property unique

THE BEACH! a few steps and you are there! Then come back up for lunch, shower off in the outdoor shower and be back on the beach in no time at all. In the evenings, grill on the outdoor gas grill or sit and enjoy the night sea air and of course, most importantly don't miss a moment of the sunset. Less exciting but equally important is the Marlin offers free long distance calling, internet, cable TV, washer and dryer and a large parking area that can accommodate a boat and trailer.
