Love it there
We've stayed at Blue Egret several times. It has everything you need to enjoy your vacation. We have stayed in many houses on Anna Maria over the past 20 plus years. This one feels like home to us.
This property was just the right size for our family of 4. It is updated and nicely decorated. The backyard was nice with a good size pool. The house was about 4 blocks to the beach. We enjoyed our stay!

No pool lights. Management claimed to be working on issue and put path lights around pool in place but the path lights only lit up so much and it was still dark. Door key lock pad failed to work multiple times leaving us locked out.. one time up to 20 mins and then called management. Pool was only serviced once and turned green.

Great
Place was clean and great location. Neighbors pool alarm went off twice during the night which the kids weren't very happy about. Called police twice to fix. They put pool alarm on a screen door so when a gust of wind comes through, it went off. I called rental agency and they wanted to walk me through the house to fix. Sorry, not my issue. I also could not find a plug outside for golf cart. I got an extra long extension cord from place and I ran around to the screen door on side. I noticed, and called you, that it appears someone tore the bottom screen to run the cord through to the outlet. Leaving a few extra pool tubes and shell sifters too for future renters. Some dish pods too. Will be back!
Ein toller Aufenthalt im zentral gelegenen Haus auf AMI. Perfekt für eine Famile mit 2 Kindern. Sehr gut ausgestattet, automatische Eiswürfelfunktion im Kühlschrank! Pool mit richtiger Größe, die Außenanlage ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen aber alles ist in Ordnung.
Einziger negativer Punkt ist, dass eine mögliche Verlängerung bzw. ein Late check out 75 Dollar die Stunde kosten soll.

Our slice of paradise.
We've been staying in the Blue Egret for a few years. Everything is there to have a wonderful vacation. The pool area is beautiful.
The rental company is great to work with. They checked on us and were very communicative.

Dirty pool!
We walked in and took a look at the pool and patio furniture and were quite displeased. The pool was murky green and we couldn't see the bottom. Outdoor patio furniture was covered in green mold. The rental company manager, Tracy, was ultimately notified we were unhappy and was very helpful in getting us into a different property. Wouldn't stay at this home but would work with Tracy again.
It was magical the moment we walked in the door. ..exactly what I was looking for. From the gulf breezes on the screened porch, the private homey pool area to the privacy of the two bedrooms on separate sides of the house it was delightful. I loved everything about the cottage. I’d buy it and everything in it, if it were available. Just lovely!
We had a wonderful vacation here for my family of four. Although getting to the beach is longer than just 3 blocks to walk, the house was perfect, the pool and patio was beautiful, and we had a great time. Would love to have had a salad spinner for cooking, but otherwise, the kitchen was well stocked. Will definitely consider returning to this house in the future - we've been back a day and already miss it!
