We enjoyed our stay! The condo had everything thing we needed. Barbecue place SMOQEHOUSE next to condo was very good. The pool was nice and short walk to the beach. Trip to Two Scoops ice cream and The City Pier with live music was the best. It really helped having access to beach umbrella, sand toys, cooler and chairs. Lots of memories around the big dinning table. Thank you!

Prime Location
Great location we walked almost everywhere! The pool area is great! Nice tennis and pickleball court my husband played twice. Our unit was very nice it looked like the kitchen and main bathroom had been updated the only thing that may need done is either updating bedroom furniture or painting it which would be easy with wicker furniture. The response time for our tv issue was great and found out it needed a new remote which they were able to replace on the spot . Thank you so much for everything

Great experience from start to finish.
Best experience beginning with reserving the accommodations, to check in and check out. Very friendly, helpful throughout the stay. Everything needed was onsite and in great condition. Brought clothes & food only. Will definitely vacation here again.
Our second time in this condo and it's still amazing!
Our condo was amazing! It's very comfortable and the kitchen is well supplied with cooking utensils. The location is very convenient to anywhere you want to go on the island. This was our second time staying in this condo and we plan to do so again. Having a close access path to the beach is very nice! This condo is also close to restaurants and a grocery store.

Definitely our condo of choice next time!
Sweet Freedom at Runaway Bay is a great place to stay. It's our second time in this unit. It's close to food, shopping and the trolley stops. The unit is very clean, has many updates and rooms are large. Check in and check out were easy. It had everything we needed for our stay, along with all the beach items you'd want. The unit is about a five minute walk to the beach. The wagon makes it easy to take what you need. This is definitely our condo of choice when we visit AMI.
Unit needs deep clean.
You pay good money for cleaning. In cabinets , sauté pans were very greasy and sheet pans rusting.
Owner needs to know. Is a dated unit with some upgrades.
Lock battery needed changing while there. Management t “ does it all “ to make sure u r happy tho.
Beds are SOFT. Need new mattresses
Am only being honest. Owners very nice. All people very nice Just should get a good deep clean as hair was everywhere.
Can not blame owner for that.
Next time would like another unit. MD
The condo was a great location. Easy walk to the beach. Trolley stop right out front. Condo had everything we needed. Kitchen was fully stocked with all items needed to prepare meals. Very clean and everything we needed for the beach was available in the unit. Easy check in and out. Assigned parking made it easy to come and go. Very disappointed the pool was closed for the entire week. Having a pool available on our vacation is important to my family.
Excellent place to enjoy the island. Couple minute walk to pool, bbq, beach, intercoastal, and free trolley stop. Condo is setup nice with everything you need for a trip to the beach, pool, or fishing. Plenty of nice Tommy Bahama beach chairs and umbrella, beach cart, cooler, boogie boards, skim board, and fishing gear. Nice tv's with Roku's. Beds are comfy. Kitchen and baths are nice and modern. Bring salt & pepper + condiments. Chris fom Tampa.
Seabreeze is a cute condo, one of the nicest we have stayed in. The Property Manager was responsive when we called with questions. The location was great. A great place for the week.
Beautiful condo. Perfect location. Everything close and within walking distance.
My only complaint- Master bed is very uncomfortable. Other than that the condo is absolutely perfect.
We had a wonderful time in Anna Maria and loved this condo. Perfect for what we needed. Had everything— including all the beach stuff and even plenty of paper towels/tp! Great location—nice pool, tennis-pickle ball court, and across the street from beach access. Very close (easy walk) to several restaurants. Rental company was great with communication. Highly recommend!
Property manager was great, condo was clean, bed slept great, living room was comfortable, close to the beach & restaurants, what else could you ask for!
We love this condo. Very clean and kitchen utensils were in great shape. This is our second year in this unit. Couldn't get for next year or we would have booked.
Condo was perfect for our stay. Myself, husband and 4 young adult/teens. We brought an air mattress. Great location. Walking distance to beach, restaurants, shopping. Took the monkey bus home from bridge street one night and that was a riot! Kitchen is fully stocked with pots/pans/bowls…everything you need to cook meals. Full size washer and dryer were great! Games/puzzles/books for downtime at the condo. Condo provided small dish soap, trash bags, laundry detergent which was very nice to have….didn’t realize so I had brought my own. Didn’t use the pool at all. Pool gets crowded. We went to the beach …access is right across the street. Tennis courts were fun; you must have equipment. Found a basketball court not too far away (5 minute drive) at herb Dolan park…we brought our own basketball. Ventured to the north end of the island and the beach sand was smooth (no shells). No beach chairs provided so bring your own. We just used our beach towels. Condo provides one beach towel and one regular towel set(bath, hand, washcloth) per guest. Bring additional beach towels—-if you are sitting on towels at the beach, you want to have a towel to dry off with that isn’t full of sand. Overall, great condo! Loved our stay!
