"Our vacation on Anna Maria Island was the best beach vacation we have ever had! The house was wonderful, especially the private pool and patio in the back! Island Real Estate was very helpful and friendly and made checking in to get our house very easy. They returned a couple of information calls we made to them during the week and they were just a breeze to deal with! Everything about our stay on the island was wonderful! Many thanks!"
