Great location, beautiful beaches
Stayed one week and it was perfect! Open concept, lots of natural light, very short walk to Holmes beach, area not very crowded. Manatee beach is close but you would need to drive. Well stocked with linens, kitchen items. Has both drip coffee maker and keurig. We drove so we had our vehicle and rented bikes there was no bike rack and someone did suggest for us to use the storage room for them. Glad we decided against the golf cart, not needed with a vehicle. The staff at Beach Retreats were very responsive and quick with questions. Publix is the main grocery store and a short drive no issues with them being out of things. Nice pool and pickleball court also. My only complaint was the water pressure in the main bathroom. Overall great fun!

Excellent place to stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location and access to the beach was perfect for our family. The amenities were just as stated on Vrbo and we would definitely stay there again. I have only one recommendation from the stay. The cart for carrying items to the beach needs replaced. I have two little girls with a lot of STUFF to carry to the beach. This cart wore my old man back out due to the difficulty pulling it through the sand! Ha! Minor detail but worth mentioning. Thanks!

Great Stay
Really enjoyed our stay at this property. The condo itself is very well maintained, clean and in a great location. It takes about 2 minutes from when you leave your door to get to the ocean! The only negatives we had were there were no garbage bags supplied. There wasn’t even one in the can. We noticed this the first night after having already shopped at Publix. I called the management company who told me they would get me some asap. We never did receive them. Not a huge deal, as we used the small Publix plastic bags. Also, the storage room where the beach stuff is kept is gross. We saw a few huge dead roaches and a few small live ones. We hated having to go in there 2x a day to get and return the beach stuff. The beach stuff itself was fine. Overall, I would definitely stay at this condo again, but I would consider leave the beach stuff on the beach at night, as a lot of people were doing this. Overall the place is a solid B+ maybe even an A-

Great unit but can be noisy
The unit was nice with enough size for my family of four. Great view from the living room couch of the beach. Easy walk to the beach. Our only issue was the gate leading to the pool is right by the front bedroom. People slammed it every time they walked through. It was lound in the unit causing my daughter who was sleeping in the front bedroom to wake up each day by 6:30-7:00am. It drove us nuts anytime we were in the unit hearing the gate slam shacking walls/windows.

Gulf Views?
Unfortunately, the gulf view was very limited - from the far end of the unit only. The unit was nice and well stocked. The tennis pball court was being refinished most of our stay :(. The road construction was a bit of a pain, and I guess has been going on longer than expected. The island is great. Rent bikes and use trolley. Fun!

Beach retreat perfect for two
We rented this property only a few days after Hurrican Ian hit just south of the area. Power was out to our selected condo so we stayed here instead. The house was clean and except for the yard being dirty with debris from the storm was perfect. The property management staff was very helpful.

Beautiful Vacation Condo
My husband and I spent a month at this beautiful condo. It is tastefully decorated and the linens and cookware are nicer than my own. Removing the lanai sliders to increase the size of the living room resulted in a sunny sitting area to read or view the gulf. The location is perfect and within walking distance to shops and restaurants, and the free trolley stops are nearby. We did have an issue with the management company. They failed to send check-in instructions and realizing it a few days before arrival I had to contact them. We also had difficulty with the lockbox as did a previous renter, but the management company did come out and replace the box the next day. Thus my reason for not giving 5's in all areas. We would definitely recommend this condo and would have liked to return next year, but the rental fee doubled and it is now out of what we can afford.

Wonderful spring vacation!
As always Anna Maria Island made for a wonderful vacation. The condo at sun plaza was excellent. Very clean and well equipped with everything we needed for a great week with two teenagers. We were thrilled to not only find beach chairs and umbrellas but a basketball and football! Loved having a view of the ocean and being able to open it all up and enjoy the ocean breeze.

Overall great stay!
The condo was beautiful! Updated, clean and spacious. Beds were very comfortable! They thought through many small details that helped with our stay, like hooks in the bathrooms to hang bathing suits, lots of dishes and cookware, beach tent, chairs and toys, etc. You can tell the owners put a lot of care into their condo. There was a short path leading to the beach. Our beach view was minimal but what we could see was still beautiful. The HOA president was a bit overzealous and seemed to always be around enforcing mask-wearing even in outdoor spaces. There were many rules for the property that we found were a bit much. Make sure to carry your key everywhere because literally everything is locked down (stairwells, tennis court, pool). You can get locked inside the pool area because you need your key to get out. Overall we loved our stay and had a great family vacation!
