Beautiful property
We loved our stay at this beautiful property. The back yard is truly not to be believed. The pool was perfectly heated, a great size, with a fun waterslide and its own swim-up tiki bar! We loved using the grill and hot tub, and gazing at the gorgeous canal. The house itself was very nice-- it's not huge but it was comfortable, air conditioned with a nice well-equipped kitchen. One small suggestion to the owners for next time: considering the house has 5 bedrooms and fits a large family gathering, we'd suggest having more garbage bags, dish soap, soap, shampoo and laundry detergent!!

Family Vacation
My husband and I had a wonderful vacation with our two daughters and their family. The house provided us with the comfort of a home away from home in the warm Florida Sun

Beautiful property, would stay again with some minor-ish changes
Checked in on March 2 to no power on one side of the house. Called emergency line and was walked (though took a while) locating the fuse box. I would have appreciated not having to do that at 10:30pm since it ended up being outside where there were no exterior lights. We only got one set of towels per person. There was not a “spa” in the pool area…yes a “spa/hot tub” but it didn’t work. I would bring your own fishing poles with you if you want to fish since there’s were old/broken and we couldn’t find any supplies. Now for the good stuff… Being at the end of the canal is wonderful. The pool area looking out at the canal was beautiful! We saw 2 manatees right near our dock. The house has nice accommodations. 2 of the bedrooms (the bunk room and the small king room) are quite small but it worked for the 7 of us. All In all a beautiful place with some minor upgrades/changes needed.

Great house and location!
The house and location were perfect for the vacation we wanted. We had a wonderful time and definitely plan to stay again. I’ve also sent the link to SEVERAL people who wanted details. Issues we had: The people who stayed before us apparently had a water balloon fight and none of it was cleaned up. The pool was not very clean either. A lot of algae in the shallow end. We also had no internet the entire time which was difficult for us as small business owners. Communication to get it resolved was not great at all. We finally spoke with Jeremy at AMI Locals and he was very apologetic and gave us a credit. Those issues are definitely not make or break and I would still highly recommended this house for a great family vacation. We even had a manatee visitor that came right up to us at the dock. We named him Bubbles and the kids were very said to say goodby to him.

Great location but on a busy road
The house was great and it was close to the beach. Umbrellas weren’t great but offered some shade. We appreciated the wagon to take stuff to the beach and we were only 1 block from the BEAUTIFUL beach. Close to shopping and food. It is on the busiest road on the island so that was a little bit of a negative but didn’t keep us from enjoying our stay. The backyard is smaller than it appears in the photos but the pool and hot tub are very nice.
