Our family loved this pool. It’s perfect for families with young kiddos since it’s not too deep. We also loved the across the street beach access! We’ve been to AMI many times and this location was our favorite. Middle of the island for quick access to all our favorite food, shopping and adventure spots! We cant wait to visit AMI again soon.

Friends Getaway
We had a beautiful time exploring the area. This location was a short golf cart ride to all things fun. We were 7 minutes from the Bean Point Beach and about 5 from the Manatee Beach We could walk to the beach easily or explore the stretch of shoreline by hopping on the cart. We truly felt we experienced it all. This place might be compact-but it really was cute and did the trick! You can’t beat having your own pool AND being a block and a half from the beach! We would highly recommend this location

Cutest lil Bungalow…felt like a resort…perfect for our girls getaway…
Highly recommend this place…awesome lil private pool with 3 loungers and lots of chairs for seating, loved the lil outdoor shower for when we came in sandy… maintenance came to check on the pool often while we were there…very short walk to the beach across the road…everything was very clean, beds comfortable, ceiling fans in bedrooms to keep you cool…entire place decorated so cute, may need to buy extra toilet paper and paper towels, also bring extra laundry tabs if you will be doing laundry for several people on the trip…great communication beforehand and while there, answered questions super quick…have an after hours number they text to me that I ended up having to use for the code when we got there because I had an e-mail issue (not their fault) that was a life saver…close to a trolley stop which made it so convenient for transportation to anywhere we needed to go…a car is not necessary..everything was great for our week! Book it now, you will love it!

We stayed at the Salty Dog and it was fabulous! Little house but just what was needed for family of 3 kids and 1 adult. Pool was warm and awesome (in spite of some chilly days and nights). Block and a half from beach and house was fully stocked with beach chairs wagon beach toys lots of towels. Just awesome!!

What a perfect location for a family with small children! We are annual AMI visitors and this rental did not disappoint - even with a. One and four year old. A quiet part of the island with an extraordinary small pool and a hop to the beach this house was equipped and there is not a better rental for the price.
