Best family vacation ever!
We loved our stay at Shore Thing. The pool, hot tub and ping pong table were a huge hit. Having the tv down there was an added bonus for watching football!
The short walk to the beach was easy. We loved that we could play pickleball on the public courts just a couple of blocks away. We will definitely be back!!

Unpleasant stay
Instead of enjoying family time I was contacting the property managers several times about wet towels left in the washer (smelled), no towel hangers in the bathrooms, water rising up to ankles in the shower, TV by the pool did not function, flat pillows in the bedroom, excessive amount of bugs (gnats) surrounding the pool. We all got bit and my son was covered with bug bites all over his face due to having autism and not being aware that the bugs were biting his face. There should have been a bug light to keep them away and we should have received a prior warning about this to bring bug spray or bug spray provided. When I reached out to the property management about this I was told that the property gets sprayed on Mondays. The biggest problem we encountered was on our check out day. That morning at 8am we all got woken up by people walking through the property and placing ladders next to our windows and making loud noises on the roof. We were never notified ahead of time. We felt that our privacy was invaded and frankly this was not professional. When I reached out to the property manager I was told that probably the owner had this scheduled and did not notify them. I never got a call from the property managers or a response for any type of compensation for this mishap. This stay was expensive and we do not feel that we received the value that we paid for. We should not have encountered so many issues or felt unsafe during our stay.

Fun and Family Friendly
A perfect set up for my daughter, myself and 3 grandchildren. The play area downstairs with the pool putting green and ping pong table and bathroom was so much fun for everyone. A 3 minute easy walk to the beach with the house wagon and chairs was perfect. Great location for restaurants. Cyndi at AMI was always available and professional and helpful.

Great stay!
We really enjoyed our stay. Between the amazing pool set up and the proximity to the beach, we had everything we needed. Also super close to the grocery store, which was super convenient. Our group loved our stay!
To echo comments from some of the other reviews - there are a few minor things that would really take the house to the next level. There are towel rods in just one of the bathrooms; no other bathrooms have anywhere to hang to dry (which there are a lot of on a beach trip). And 2/3 putters where snapped in half upon our arrival.

Amazing pool/partially covered hot tub
This house was lovely and clean and did have some beach accessories like chairs and a wagon to pull things that certainly helped make our stay easier. While, there were a few little things like the washing machine not working, the company was responsive. The rooms are all on the same floor so that can be tough if you have people on different schedules or little ones you will absolutely hear each other. The layout is simple and cheerful and the partially covered pool and hot tub are perfect on really sunny and stormy days. The house manager was extremely accessible, the location was perfect, equidistance from the water on either side.

Beautiful 5-bedroom near the beach on Ana Maria Island
Listing describes it perfectly - we had a great time and would happily return.
A few minor hiccups were quickly resolved by rental agent - excellent response to our needs.
MINOR NOTES - Description about where to park could have been more clear and more info about how to use the hot tub might have been helpful. Hooks in all bathrooms would be helpful.

We had a fantastic time at this residence. Everything was as advertised. The heated pool and hot tub were a big hit....especially as we were able to watch college bowl games from the pool/hot tub. The house was super clean and the rental company was very responsible to the 2 issues we had at the house...I highly recommend this property!!

AC in the rooms wasn’t working properly, really hot at night, technician came to fix it but was the same really hot at night. Landcasping need to be done around the house is bad, any animal can be there, the fake grass has some broken glass, someone needs to go and check on this. I will not rent this house in the future.

The 11 of us (6 adults and 5 kids) had a great week. The pool area made it all happen. The property fencing with perimeter landscaping provides a nice secluded feel. Easy walk to the beach. We had 3 families so enough bathrooms for all to have their own. The kitchen, dining area and TV area served us perfectly. The main bedrooms could have a dresser unit for clothing, but this is not a deal breaker at all. Thank you, Shore Thing, for a great week!

We enjoyed the putting green, jacuzzi and pool on this property. It was great for our family. Four bathrooms upstairs was really nice for our group.
