Perfect Location!
The property manager is very attentive. This property has 3 units that share a nice pool. The decor is very beachy and bright. Just as the description states, it truly is steps from the beach. Publix is very close as are many places within walking distance. We have stayed here before and will definitely stay here again.

Location can't be beat!
We enjoyed our time while staying here. The unit was clean and well-appointed for our week long stay. The outdoor pool area was relaxing and provided a lot of fun for our little ones. Being only a block from the beach was great, especially as no busy roads were needed to be crossed. We would gladly stay here again.

Location
If you’re looking for a budget friendly house in a superb location, this is it! Minimal guests share the pool so most nights it was just my family using it. My family loved the proximity to the beach entrance and it was just far enough down from the public beach parking so as not to be crowded. Really close to grocery store and souvenir shop (walking distance), and centrally located on island between all the restaurants and entertainment. Well equipped with everything needed for a weeks stay. It checked all of our boxes which were proximity to beach, a pool, near food and entertainment and away from large condos.

Very convenient to everything
This property is very conveniently located to everything we need within walking distance. We fly so it's important to get to the grocery store, restaurants and other options. It is 1 block from the beach and 2 blocks from the shopping center. It has a nice pool and is well equipped with everything you might need.

Worst vacation property ever!!!
Worst vacation experience ever!! Property run down and dirty. Toilet broke for 3 days. Refrigerator broke for 2 days. Pool area looked like an abandoned building. Stayed for 4 weeks and pool was not cleaned for the first 3 weeks. Pool filter system did not work for 3 weeks. On line pictures of property greatly misrepresented. Complained to VRBO and requested to be compensated for days w/o toilet and refrigerator. Property manager said no. I suggest VRBO check out properties they represent before taking them on as a client. Rate this property as a minus 10. Very unhappy with our experience.

Wonderful, clean, safe, marvelous location!
We spent 6 nights at The Marlin & it was wonderful! The location can't be beat! Steps to the beach! Quiet, safe neighborhood & a clean, warm pool with plenty of patio seating, beach chairs, outdoor shower & floats for the kids. We enjoyed the convenient walk to Publix, CVS, plenty of souvenir shops, ice cream & Chinese one night. We ventured about 10 min south for mini golf & felt even happier at the location we had! We also visited South Florida Museum in Bradenton to see the manatee rescue, but mostly it was a beach, pool, sunshine break! Thank you Cheri for sharing your property so that others can enjoy just a piece of this paradise!

We enjoyed our stay at The Marlin. It was super close to the beach, Publix and CVS. The place could use a few updates, but it's very clean and decorated nicely. Loved having a washer/dryer. We loved the neighbors, very friendly!!

Best location for vacation home
You can walk to beach, store, and restaurant easily. The pool is nice too. I believe that this is the best value for a 2 bedroom home

Quiet Retreat
The location was very good only a short walk to the ocean. And if you wanted there was cafe on the beach within walking distance which was nice for breakfast or lunch. Although the pool was clean and very nice the weather just wasn't warm enough to swim as we were there the last week in January. The kitchen had everything you would need for cooking there were even paper towels.coffee,and some spices that were probably left by previous vacationers. There were plenty of towels and wash cloths, and extra blankets for the beds if needed. We are thinking of renting the three bedroom next year and bringing along some friends. Dave DeFrank

Perfect!
The house was perfect, very clean and the property was well kept. The sunsets are amazing! The short walk down the quite road to the beach made it feel like you were on the beach front. The pool and grill area was huge compared to other properties. We love Anna Marie Island and will be back with the rest of the family. Thank you Cheri for the wonderful job you do.

Good
This property is well-located and a good structure and facility. Grocery, other shopping in walking distance and very close to beach. Great family unit and we rented the whole building (tri-plex) so it worked great for us, with our own private patio with pool. Manager is nearby; good customer service. This year was our 2nd year there and we will be back. Would recommend to friends. The only reason we didn't give 5 stars is It's not a plush, prestigious house, but we don't prefer that anyway, because we don't stay indoors much.

Beautiful, exceptionally clean and very relaxing!
We had a three night stay at the Marlin, and our only true regret was that the stay was too short! We were in unit 206, and immediately we were impressed with the high level of cleanliness and attention to detail that was clearly intended for the benefit of guests. The kitchen was fully stocked with all cooking items, a real treat since some VRBO properties advertise fully stocked kitchens, but are not. Since my husband loves to cook, he was in heaven! The outdoor grill area was clean and a real joy for my husband. The pool area is large and nice...although we stayed in January, it was a bit too chilly for a swim. The ocean is only a short block away, and the sunsets on AMI are gorgeous. We will return again!

The Marlin 12/26-12/19/15
We were very specific about wanting a heated pool. Before we arrived you should have made sure that the solar panels were working correctly. It would have been nice to have soap both in the shower and where you wash you hands in the toilet sink. Also we had to ask to have the gas in the gas grill refilled. The other people who were staying at The Marlin were very friendly and had remarked that on previous stays the pools solar system was working very well. Great location. Nicely decorated.
