Great Spring Break
We had a wonderful time, the house worked beautifully for the 3 generations of our family. We were able to walk almost everywhere except the grocery store. The beach, shopping, and restaurants were very convenient. Our grandkids loved playing in the pool while the adults enjoyed the sunshine.

Family Fun
We had a great time staying in this beautiful house! The open floor plan for the kitchen and family room was wonderful! We loved relaxing in the pool on the hot days of August. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, cookware, dishes and glasses. The outside ice machine for all our drinks and beach toys were great too! Thank you for a wonderful vacation at your beach house!

Tranquility on the canal❤️
We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful family home. The place was so comfortable and the kitchen was wonderful. The backyard was an island oasis! The pool was warm for the little ones and the adults who love to walk right in! The location was perfect on a quiet block and convenient for walking everywhere. They are building a home next door but the workers were quiet and respectful. We couldn’t even hear or see them when out at the pool. The staff responded promptly to a few items we inquired about. The towels were fresh and the home had everything we needed but we would probably buy a few more board and card games for the place. We are grateful for our family time at playing hooky and we look forward to returning to AMI!
