Great beach vacation

We loved our time at this property. It had a fantastic heated pool and backyard space that we used multiple times a day, a well equipped kitchen, and was a short walk to the beach. If we return to Anna Maria Island we would stay here again.

Great stay!

Blue Pelican is very clean, comfortable and quiet! We loved the private pool. The proximity to the beach is perfect and many places are a short bike ride away. The hosts are very pleasant and we appreciated the AMI knowledge they shared with us. We had a great stay!

Wonderful place to relax!

My family of four had one of the most relaxed and refreshing stays at this property, with the HUGE amenity of the private pool. We enjoyed it so much that it was difficult for us to get out of the pool before sunset.

This is the second year we've rented through AMLR. They are a great company. House once again was very clean and comfortable. Only Abt 3 minute bike ride to beach. Neighborhood is quiet and friendly. We love this island?

Great duplex in a quiet neighborhood, close to everything.

This was my first time staying at the Blue Pelican and it was great. Back yard was private and the pool was great. The location of the house is close to the beach and all of the shops. My mom and I had a great time!

Lovely beach stay

The property was as described and suited all our needs. Well appointed and location great for beach access and close to some great places to eat. The beds were really comfy. The pool could have been cleaner on arrival and side sitting area bit dirty and unappealing but overall we had a great stay.

Fun beach trip

We had a wonderful time on our recent stay at this property. Even though it was small it was well laid out and had plenty of room for the four of us. The private pool was amazing! We brought our bikes and biked to the beach, which I highly recommend. Loved the small town feel of this area.

Perfect vacation spot!

I want to live in the patio and pool area. So comfortable in every way. The apartment is stocked with all you'd want plus plenty of extras. The island is uncrowded and the beach is a few blocks away. Tampa and Orlando are both easy drives as well for amusement parks, etc. Great spot for our family of four!!

We had a great time at this house. The walk seemed a little far to the beach but we appreciated all the beach stuff (4 chairs, two umbrellas/sun shades and toys to be ply with. The pool was nice as another option to cool off. We loved AMI.

Wonderful Home and Location

This is our second visit to Anna Maria Island. I loved staying on the North part of the Island. It is quiet, slow, and beautiful. Even though there are families around, you could be in the backyard and have complete privacy. The home was perfect for our family. It had everything we needed, was clean, and very comfortable.The pool was wonderful! We rented a golf cart and I highly recommend. We could take the back streets to all the restaurants, beach, and shopping without dealing with cars!

Fantastic house near the beach

Very good property close to the beach. Stayed for a week. The house is not big but you are outside most of the time so it is ok. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen has everything you need except for breadknife and cutingboards. I can strongly recomend this house. If you are a bigger company you can rent the house next door.
