Ashley and I had a great time escaping the freezing weather in New York and spending time here in the beautiful condo. Everything was great and we enjoyed every minute of our stay here. Thank you for everything.

Thank you so much we have had the best time away from the snow and cold of New York. The condo is really fabulous and we love the colorful tiles in the bathroom and the comfortable accommodations. It was like staying at our 5 Star Hotel back home. Thank you again for everything.

Michael,
We have had a fantastic time on Anna Maria. Your condo is absolutely fantastic and definitely home away from home. The kids have had a great run in the pool and of course the beautiful beach. It was so nice to arrive and have everything we needed. Your condo has a real wow factor. We have discovered some lovely places and met some great people on AMI. We really do not want to go home now but we will definitely be back.

It all worked out....we are moving a bit slow with the cold weather but it's beautiful here and the condo is absolutely perfect for us! This is the best place I have stayed in the area. We would love to come back...let me know the availability please. You said you were booked through August I believe. I don't mind being squeezed in through weekly stays or a week would be a possibility too.
Michael,
We had a wonderful time again here at Anna Maria Island. The weather was gorgeous and we soaked up the sun. The condo was so comfortable and homey we thoroughly enjoyed it. The pool was so refreshing and quite a work out. Thank you so much for the wonderful experience. We will be back.

Sorry for being little late, but wanted to thank you for your hospitality. Your Condo was really nice in good shape and very good location we really liked being there all of us.
Hope to be able to come there soon, if / when we will, we’ll ask you if you have this or others available.
Below is one of these email jokes, take a look and you realize we would not be bothered easily by cool weather.
(+ 15 Celcius is ab. 60-65 Fahrenheit, 0 C is ab. 30 F )
Take care.

I just wanted to thank you again for the use of your beautiful condo last week! My daughter and I had a wonderful time on the island! Your condo was absolutely beautiful and had everything we could have possibly needed! The furnishings were absolutely beautiful and the condo couldn’t have been decorated any better! Kay had the place spotless when we arrived last Saturday afternoon. I fell in love with your condo and told my daughter I could live there very happily! HaHa!
Thank you again for everything! We will definitely be back!

Thank you for allowing us to rent your condo, we had a wonderful time visiting AMI. The condo was comfortable and I can not think of any instance of missing something that we needed. The housekeeper did a wonderful job of cleaning the place before we arrived. My wife works in the medical field and has a much higher standard of clean than most people. She was quite happy with the condition of the place.
Hopefully we can make it back next year.

Review submitted: March 5, 2011 Date of arrival: February 19, 2011
Hi Michael,
I am back home in Duluth, MN now in 10 degree weather and wishing I were back on the beach. My suntan started to fan the minute my feet hit the jet way on the plane arriving back in Minnesota.
I wanted to thank you for the wonderful accommodations in unit 176 at Runaway Bay. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The weather was fabulous the whole week we were there. We got to enjoy the pool several days. Beautiful pool. Everyone we met there was so friendly and nice. The condo itself was great. Nicely decorated and had all the supplies we needed in the bathroom, kitchen and laundry facilities. Great place. Would certainly recommend it to my friends.

Hi Mike
We are checking out tomorrow AM and just wanted to drop a line to you to let you know we really enjoyed our stay in your condo #234. The unit was clean well appointed and very cozy. We had some friends over and they really liked the place also.
We would recommend your place without a doubt to anyone looking to spend some time in a very friendly complex. The people here are very friendly and the customer service was great.
We will leave the keys at the front office.
We are off the Tampa and then home.
Thanks so much.

Hi Michael,
Just wanted to let you know how much we liked the condo and our stay there. We loved ,loved, loved it! It was just perfect,from the set up,to really being just a stones throw to the beach. Being the clean freak I am, it was great to stay somewhere, where it felt like home. We would definately stay there again, but hopefully we could fly down next time. We live in Nashville, so it was quite a drive. You truly have a gem of a place, and look forward to the day we can come back. We are very envious of you, you get to live on that beautiful island, but we did get some nice pics to enjoy.

We just wanted to drop you a note to say we are now back in “Sunny England” I wish!!! And to say we had a fabulous week in your condo!!!
We were both shocked at how beautiful the condo was and how spotlessly clean it was, not forgetting to mention the great taste of decor.
We hope to return in the future and will be sure to be in contact to stay again, hopefully explore the island a bit more,
Thanks again and best regards, Richard

Jeannie and I want to tell you how much we enjoyed staying in your unit this week..It was beautiful, decorated to the max, comfortable, and had almost everything we needed. I was so sorry to call you about the bikes, but thank you so much for taking care of the problem. We are almost sure we will return next year, and will let you know as soon as possible about availability. Again, thank you for everything and for all you did to make our stay absolutely perfect. This was our first time visiting the island, and we are hooked on how quaint, quiet, and laid back it is there..Bob Wheeler

Hallo Michael!
We would like to THANK YOU for the wonderful condo and time you made
possible for us!
It was a great time in florida and we took a lot of memories with us.
I hope everything is ok in your apppartement and we may come back?!
My parents are big USA- and Floridafans and are thinking about to stay
in your condo next year in autumn, too. They had been on Anna Maria
Island a few times before, 'cause they love the golfcourses all around.
In the appendix you find a little postcard from us....:)
Many, many greetings from cold germany..

Good Morning MIchael
I meant to e-mail you before now, but we haven't quite adjusted to the time change yet!!
Thanks for the use of the condo. It really was so nice to 'come home' to such a nice place at the end of each day. We really did have a wonderful stay. An interesting article - I hope it doesn't lead to a great influx of visitors, we like it as it is, although I suppose that is a selfish view.
We went to the theatre to see the Island Players - we can recommend the experience to visitors. One disappointment was a visit to Rotten Ralph's. It really has gone down in our estimation. However, we did enjoy eating at the Sandbar at the top of the island. I thought their cajun shrimp was just the best ever.
Weather here hasn't been too bad since we returned, although not quite Florida style.
Hope we shall get to see you in November.
Kind regards
Margaret and Ross.

We've just got back home and I wanted to send you a message saying how much we enjoyed our holiday in your condo.
Although we have been to the USA many times before, this was the first time we had tried what we in the UK call self-catering. previously we had always stayed in hotels. Consequently, we were a little bit unsure as to what to expect, especially as we were 'booking' thru an individual rather than a 'corporate'.
However, I have to say that the holiday exceeded our expectations. We thought the condo was delightful. In fact, we didn't see anyplace better or even equal to it on the Island. Not that we were particularly looking, but we just observed what we saw as we drove and walked around. My wife particularly liked the complex (Runaway Bay): it was on ahuman scale and well land-scaped. The pool was a real bonus as was the water feature - I dont know if you would call it a stream or a lake or a pond - which attracted the egrets, herons and ibises.
We were really impressed by the comprehensiveness ( if that's the right word) of the furnishings and fittings and paraphernalia of the condo; and it's immaculate decor and presentation.
All in all we had a wonderful holiday and I'd like to thank you for it. If you ever need a reference, don't hesitate to nominate me.
Best wishes and thanks
