Excellent location for a group of 19

There was a group of 19 of us for a family vacation. The rental is two sides that only connects by going to the roof or on the lower level. Both sides do have an elevator. The location is perfect. You can walk to some little restaurants. We loved that you have a pool and the beach. Each bedroom had their own bathroom, which was very nice also. We had a one year-old with us and rented a Pack and play from a rental company. We also rented a beach wheelchair for our dad. We primarily stayed on the bigger side, unit B, which had six bedrooms. Unit a has three bedrooms so the adult children stayed on that side. B has a nice large kitchen for everyone to gather. We had a couple issues with the home. First one of the doors going outside wouldn’t lock. There was a piece of blue tape on door saying use side door. We had to call them twice to come out and finally a guy came out and screwed some bracket on it to keep it closed. All the door handles leading outside should all be updated. One of the sinks on unit A didn’t drain well. We did have some cockroaches dead and alive near end of trip. Not thrilled but I would imagine they could have an exterminator come in and spray. They need more washcloths. The pool had a lot of sand in it and even after cleaner came it still did. They need maintenance and cleaning to come through and do a good overall of the house. With that being said I would stay here again because of location and size of home.

Perfect beachfront vacation

Lovely property with perfect location. Close to all shops, restaurants, bars and entertainment. A trolley stop right out front and a pool and the Gulf out back. Typical beachfront rental wear and tear, however super spacious, well appointed and very comfortable. Property management was always available to address any issues.

Beautiful house, great location

The house is beautiful. It does have two separate sides that connect only on the first and fourth floors. We knew about that ahead of time. It took some getting used to and involved a lot of steps to go from one side to the other. We rarely used the elevators to do so as they were quite slow. There were numerous maintenance issues that were followed up relatively promptly. The contact person was always extremely courteous and understanding. The weather was unseasonably cool, even cold, and they did respond to my request to increase the heat of the pool so the grandkids could swim comforably. If they hadn't, it would have made the time far, far less enjoyable. I really appreciated that.

Christmas Stay

The property was certainly big enough for all of us with plenty of large bedrooms and bathrooms (as advertised). The house was very clean although the pool and pool deck were not (I swept the deck and gathered some debris out of the pool). We really enjoyed the pools and the pool heater worked very well which really helped given the cool weather. Two surprises- 1) we didn’t realize that this was actually 2 halves of a big house and without a way to get from one main level to the other one without going outside. 2) The kitchen was well stocked with the listed appliances once we found out how to open the pantry door. Maybe there should be a sign on the door? Re check-in - I never received a text or email and finally called at 4pm and was told that the house was available. Guessing it may have been available earlier as we were parked outside for a bit. Turns out the door was already open which I reported to the office. Our 5 young grandchildren (ages 5-9) really enjoyed the pools and waterfalls and the very nice back yard area with excellent access to the beach. Overall - we had a very nice stay and enjoyed this beautiful house and the Anna Maria area.

SPECTACULAR!!!

It was hard to believe that the property would be better than portrayed online, but it was in almost every way. It was VERY clean, spacious, convenient, private and had everything we needed. The home manager was incredibly responsive. We interacted several times and I don’t think I ever waited more than 20 min for a response. We will DEFINITELY be back to this property.

Wonderful location, disappointing interior

We were terribly disappointed in this home for the money we spent. We cooked together every night and had to make due with not enough serving pieces, ovens that didn’t work, grills with no fuel, furniture that is worn and dirty. The idea of a pool table was nice outside except it was so worn that the pockets had holes in them making the table utterly useless. Rack fell off the wall as soon as someone tried to take pool cue out of holder. Probably most frustrating was that I reached out to property manager the day we moved in with these frustrations and never heard a word from them until they wanted to know what time we would be checking out on Saturday. Make sure you realize it’s two sides of one property that have no inner connection so you have to go outside to enter other side if you rent the whole property. I’ll go back to saying it’s a beautiful location. I’ve rented from Vrbo for years in very high end homes and never have we been this frustrated. Sorry for this poor review but whoever is considering this property should know what they are getting into.

First Review I’ve Ever Left!

Just want to start by saying I’ve never left a review about anything online. I want to start by saying that we were lucky enough to meet the owners of the property as we were arriving. They were genuinely just really great people and we instantly realized how much pride they took in the property. They even dropped off fresh donuts the next morning for all 18 of us staying there (9 kids)! The house is over the top as well, tastefully decorated with amazing gulf views and a short distance from everything that the island has to offer. It was truly an amazing experience. Thank you so much for your kindness and allowing us to stay at your home!

Incredible location

The house was spacious enough for five families to fit comfortably. Having two full kitchens was key. The house was clean and as described. There were minor issues that were addressed with the rental company right away. The pool was very clean and a wonderful place to hangout when we weren’t at the beach. You simply cannot beat the location & the views. Lifetime memories were made with our friends.

Overall a Positive Experience

We had a very large group staying for a week, and the property was spacious enough for everyone to feel comfortable. The kids were in the pool every day and the views can absolutely not be beat! I'm not able to give a 5 star rating, however, as the property was not overly clean. The floors, in particular, were very dirty. The other negative we experienced was the kitchen - the knives were terribly dull, most of the cabinet knobs were loose, and it was lacking in dish cloths. So overall it was a wonderful experience, with fun had by all! But as, with most things, there are things that can be improved, particularly if you plan to do most of your own cooking.

Decent home but missing some essentials

We stayed in the Grand Beach house over Christmas week. The home was clean when we arrived. This is a big house which suited our large family. There were several things management could do to improve the property. I'll start small and work my way up: Most rental homes have a comprehensive book or binder explaining all the nuances of the property, trash pick up, etc. This home did not come with anything. As a result, we did not know how to use the TV's until management sent someone out to explain. Beach homes typically come with a broom and dust pan to keep the tracked in sand under control. No broom, no dust pan. We bought one and donated it to the property. For a house that sleeps 20 people, kitchen utensils were minimal. Drinking glasses and silverware are slim. Other kitchen complaints,: no directions for the induction cooktop, ice maker handle was literally falling off and the refrigerator pops loudly when opened. Now the big stuff. We had no hot water for 4 of our 7 nights. The management company did send out a plumber, but he did not fix the problem. Hot water was "supplied" by a tankless water heater which obviously was not working. Also, the dryer would not dry clothes. We ran it for 3 hours and clothes were still wet. I have left 3 messages for Ann Maria Vacations with no return call. Disappointing.

Family Reunion

Property is as gorgeous as it appears in the photos. They were 21 of us most days. My children are in their 40s and 50s. Some came with grandchildren and some of those came with great grand children. Everyone was just tickled to be in such a nice place right on the beach with a wonderful private pool. It was clean and move-in ready when we got there on the first day. It was plenty of storage to store food for all 20 of us for the week. The family rank this number one over previous Wisconsin, Illinois, Colorado, southern Florida, and Orlando reunions.

Inadequate attention to details affecting large groups

The house was nice, beach and pool awesome. There were some conveniences that should have been attended to. Our first walk through noted discrepancies in number of plates, bowls, glasses etc. the labels made you feel you would be held responsible for shortages. Also the number of table chairs did not match occupancy. There was only 1 trash bag per kitchen provided. The ice makers in the kitchen did not work. The information on the coffee table warned against calling maintenance as they made sure everything worked before renting. They could have provided a wheeled cart to help unload groceries into the elevator. Instead you had to deal with all the bags separately. The coffee table in the larger sitting area was very unstable and dangerous for children. Several of the televisions did not work. The refrigerator wasn’t in very good shape (loose trim and shelf inside taped up). Generally the house needs a thorough cleaning as there was a moldy smell in the larger side and many details not taken care of as mentioned above. Aside from all of the issues above, when we originally scheduled in 2020 and had to cancel due to COVID the owner was not willing to give a refund but also wanted to charge $4000 additional to return during the time period the following year. We therefore had to choose a fall date which was more difficult for the families with school age children. As a VRBO owner I gave all my guests the option to cancel with a refund. Aside from all my concerns we found a card in the house advising potential returning guests to bypass VRBO fees and reserve directly with another agency.
