This was our first time to AMI. Our house was fabulous with 4 king ensuites and great pool. It was a very short walk to the beach and chairs, umbrellas and wagon were available to use. Will definitely stay here again.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2024
The house was amazing! It was very clean, in the perfect location, and fit the needs of our family. The only negative was that we got there at 10:30 at night with zero toilet paper and no soap of any kind to start with. It would have been nice to have something to start with provided for the price point. Otherwise, we had a great week!
10 / 10Outstanding·Mar 2024
We had a great stay. The pool area was great and we played cornhole and ping pong. The beach was only 1 1/2 blocks away. My only complaint was the master bed which was soft and not good for my back, but most people like it that way.
8 / 10Excellent·Nov 2023
We were a family of 3 adult sons plus a daughter in law and grandson. The house was perfect for our family!! The pool and hot tub were used everyday! Clean for the most part ( supposedly cleaned 2 times week, but was not cleaned for our whole stay) ) ( we dipped out leaves ourselves as we had a couple of windy day) Got cloudy by weeks end. Perfect temperature as we were there in October. Kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. Although we loved this place, there are a few things that should probably be addressed. 1. It would be nice to have extra soap in the bathrooms. 1 small cake for each ( sink) bathroom just isn’t enough. 2. 2 dishwasher pods for a family of 8 for a week is not enough. We needed the dishwasher everyday as we had a toddler and we cooked most nights. 3. A couple extra rolls of tp would be nice as us ladies need a little more. 4. Not sure how to address this but in my opinion, the 2 masters near the kitchen need new mattresses. If they are fairly new, they are way too soft for my liking! Our backs were not happy. ** NOTE The photos you see of the beautiful outdoor fireplace are off limits to renters. This is only for the owners. If you are there in the summer, you are all good. We were there in October and would have loved to use it a couple days. All and all it’s a beautiful property, but as of now, it’s has made me think of things to ask before I rent something of this magnitude .
