Perfect as always
This is our third stay and we’ll continue coming back. Jeff is a wonderful host, the house is clean and comes packed with all of the amenities you would need for a beach vacation.

Fantastic location
We had a great time during our stay. The location was perfect - just a short walk to the Gulf and Bay. The house was very comfortable, with great beds and a comfy couch, perfect for mid-day naps. It was well stocked with all the items we needed. We made good use of the beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, and wagon, and we're very thankful that these items were available as they made our beach experience much more enjoyable.

Perfect location for relaxation, beach and fun!
House was very spacious for a family of four with teenage boys. We loved the screened in porch in the front and the downstairs screened in room for games and movie night. This place is located half way between the gulf on one side and the bay on the other. Both a short enough distance to walk or bike. Located near shopping and restaurants too but on a quiet street. Home had everything you need. Kitchen was well equip with staple items like oils, seasonings, sugar, etc. Lots of beach towels, beach chairs and beach toys. Even had a couple fishing poles. Overall a really nice place with a great location. Was perfect for our family's stay!

This cozy house is located a short walk to the beach, shops and restaurants. We barely needed to get back in the car once we arrived which made for a very relaxing vacation! We absolutely loved our stay and plan return again!

Great Vacation
We really enjoyed our week here! The house is clean, the kitchen well stocked and Jeff was a great host! Thanks, Jeff, for the new grill since the old one was rusted out--we used it! We enjoyed the outdoor living room and the games! Lots of beach equipment in the shed! The bikes were a great way to get around the island (FYI, the breaks on the white bike are not great--but we made it work) The screened porch is great place for morning coffee and evening card games! We would definitely stay again! Thanks for the good experience!

Relaxing and Comfortable
We very much enjoyed (what was) our second stay at this home. Love how comfortable it is, and the location is perfect for beach days, dining, walking the neighborhoods, or shopping. We’re planning to come again next year!

Classic relaxing beach house
Jeff and Susan are wonderful and responsive hosts. Their home is ideally situated two blocks from the Gulf, two blocks from the Bay. There are numerous restaurants within walking distance. The home is well equipped with everything to make for a comfortable home away from home. The beds are soft so if you like that you will be fine.

So good we stayed for a second time!
We love it here enough to have just completed our second stay at Ave Maria. Jeff and Sue work hard to provide everything their guests could want to make their stay comfortable and enjoyable, and an extremely quick to reply to any questions. It could not be in a more convenient location on AMI; just behind the wonderful Pine Avenue, with a short walk to wonderful Bean Point, some of the best restaurants on the island, the Pier or the free trolley stops! The beds are extremely comfortable - always an important consideration, and the kitchen is well stocked with cooking items - should you wish to stay home to eat. Use of the beach toys and bikes was greatly appreciated. too! Thank you both for making our stay so lovely again :)
