Absolute Paradise

Was a noisey intersection that we were on- but liked the walkability of it. Close to shops & beach! Management was easy to deal with.

Nice house- small pool for 12 people, Company easy to deal with, Very busy/ noisy location- but walkable to every thing.

Cindy - Posted: 4/17/2026

We’re glad you enjoyed your stay at Absolute Paradise by Anna Maria Vacations and found the home comfortable and our team easy to work with — that means a lot to us, Cindy. The walkable location is definitely a big plus, though it can be a bit livelier at times being close to everything. We appreciate your note on the pool size as well and will be sure to share that feedback. Thanks again for staying with us and we’d love to have you back for another island getaway!

We had a great stay at Absolute Paradise. The host was very helpful and even brought over a cot when our teenagers didn’t fit on the one pull out sofa. Something to note is that there is only one pull out sofa, not two, like the one post said. The location of the house is the best quality. We parked our car and never used it again. Pine St shopping and various restaurants are right there. The beach was also down the street. Definitely would stay again.

Hi, Susan, thank you so much for staying with Anna Maria Vacations at Absolute Paradise and for sharing such thoughtful feedback! We are thrilled to hear you had a great stay and that our local team was able to help with a cot to make everyone comfortable. We appreciate you pointing out the pull-out sofa detail and will be sure that is clarified. You truly cannot beat that Pine Avenue location with shops, restaurants, and the beach all just steps away, parking the car and forgetting about it is the island way. We are so glad you would stay again and would love to welcome you back for another Anna Maria Island getaway anytime!!

The place was beautiful and bright and cheery! Lots of room. Really close to the beach and the shops and restaurants! So much fun to explore this island. We need to go back!

Hi, Nancy, thank you for staying with us at Absolute Paradise. We’re so glad you loved the bright, cheerful home and all the space it offered. Being just a short walk from the beach, shops, and great restaurants makes exploring the island so much fun, and we’re happy you enjoyed every minute. We agree, a return trip is definitely needed. We’d love to welcome you back with Anna Maria Vacations!!

Great beach house with plenty of room for a large family. Ideally situated in heart of AMI. Close to beach, restaurants and shopping. House shows a bit of wear and the pool could be larger, but overall excellent experience and overall value

We enjoyed our long weekend at absolute paradise. The home is represented accurately online. Anna Maria vacations was great when we had a few initial issues at the house. Very responsive. Be sure to bring any cooking staples as there are not any cooking ingredients, spices, etc. in the home.

House was perfect for my family which included adult children and grandchildren. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate everyone! Management company was very nice and responsive. Only tiny recommendation I have is to add more kitchen pans for large groups.I highly recommend this home!

We had such a wonderful stay at this Anna Maria Island House. My husband and I traveled over with his brother and S-I-L and we stayed 3 nights. The house was bigger than we needed for only 4 people, but we like to have space and spread out. This house certainly had enough space for us. With 2 primary suites, there was no fuss over the "better bedrooms". We always like having at least one extra bedroom in case anyone has trouble sleeping. The house is very well appointed and tastefully decorated. We had unfortunate chilly weather while we were there, so we didn't get to enjoy the outside areas, but the pool and decks on the house are amazing. AMI is very walkable from this house to get to restaurants and shopping. We all have scooters as well which we brought along and did a little scooter tour of the island. We love also driving south to see the other areas and beaches. You can see the whole stretch of towns in a short drive. You can't go wrong with this gorgeous house! Beautiful rooms, comfy beds, very clean, lots of room to spread out, gorgeous outside areas, great location! We would definitely stay here again and would recommend it for couples and families. The manager was very responsive. We didn't need a lot because the house was so great, but when I sent a text with a question they responded immediately. 5 Stars all the way!

Nicole R. - Posted: 1/27/2025

Awesome place! Easy to use hot tub. Beds were comfortable. Plenty of room for a large group to have multiple activities going at once. Great location to restaurants, the beach and for a sunset view on the roof.

Brandon - Posted: 12/14/2024

So glad you and your crew had an amazing time. Next time, we’ll have the bubbles ready for another hot tub session! 😎

Family wedding at Sandbar Restaurant. We had multiple generations staying together. Everyone had their own space and we shared communal space. House was spectacular in location, cleanliness and size. Pool and spa were greatly enjoyed, as were all the decks. Really liked having beach chairs and towels available for use, along with wagon to transport to beach. Great place to relax in Anna Maria, close to beach and many restaurants, bars and shopping.

Roberta D. - Posted: 12/9/2024

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that your family had such a memorable stay during the wedding and that the house provided the perfect space for everyone to come together. It’s great to know that you enjoyed the location, cleanliness, and size, as well as the pool, spa, and decks. We're happy that the beach chairs, towels, and wagon made your beach trips easier and more enjoyable. Anna Maria truly is a special place, and we're so glad you had a relaxing experience. We hope to welcome you all back for another stay soon!

We loved staying at this house. More than enough room for our crew and just a short walk to the beach. The kitchen was a little lacking in utensils and the freezer was slow to make ice, but we managed just fine. Overall, had a great stay and was wishing we could have booked a longer stay.

This house was so nice, clean and spacious! The furniture was comfortable and great quality! The pool was heated, clean and it was such a private little oasis back there - great seating for patio too! We had our children with us and they loved sitting on the balcony on the hanging egg chairs! We could walk to restaurants, a little convenience store, boutiques, ice cream shops and THE BEACH! Highly recommend- will be coming back!!

Crystal S. - Posted: 4/25/2024

Wonderful home, our family had a blast. We loved all the shops close by, and hanging out by the pool. When we arrived the home was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay - and the extra supplies we needed we picked up from the dollar tree. Management company was easy to work with and had great communication. We will be back for sure next year!

Anonymous - Posted: 3/23/2023

We had the best time with our family here! There was plenty of room for all of the kids and grandkids to play and spread out. The house was clean and well put together. We walked to the beach everyday, and back for the sunset. It was perfect! We can't wait to come back again!

We had a wonderful week as a family at this property! The beds and furniture overall need a makeover desperately, but what can you expect out of a busy beach rental? Overall, we would put this place at a 10 out of 10! Upon arrival we had several maintenance issues such as light bulbs out, toilet handle not working, refridgerator door that was broken and the kitchen trash can that would come off and on track easily. We reported them all and literally within minutes of sharing, our problem was resolved and by the kindest maintenance tech Tim. We truly appreciated his willingness to help and personable nature! The pool in the picture is accurate, but not open to the sun any longer. The foilage has grown and the lot next door is no longer an open lot, causing the pool to be fairly shaded. We spent most of our time at the beach however, so not a big deal. We love Anna Maria, and yet again we had a wonderful vacation! Thanks so much!

Lyndsy H. - Posted: 8/8/2022

Lyndsy, we are happy to hear that you had a wonderful vacation and enjoyed your stay! We appreciate your feedback regarding the furniture and we'll be sure to discuss this with our team. We hope to host you again sometime soon!

Great location. House is near many restaurants and a very easy walk to the beach. Pool and hot tub were amazing. Most pools on AMI are very shady but this pool did get some sun. Hot tub heated up very nicely. We had 11 people with us, 6 adults and 5 teenagers and we had plenty of room. The large kitchen table was great for cards and dinners. The floors in the entire house were dirty. Maybe the cleaning people forgot to do them? Layout of home was great with 2 bedrooms and and 2 baths on each level. Would absolutely stay there again.

Prime Vacations staff

This very large and well appointed home is in a perfect location in a lovely community near everything you would want for a wonderful stay on the island. It is only a few blocks to a cute coffee/bakery for your morning coffee on the way to your morning walk along the miles of the softest sandy beaches you will ever experience. Every other day, in the other direction of the home, we would go to the community center to the gym to work out, which was great too. Also , nearby is an easy walk to the Main Street for all the shopping and little restaurants you would like to visit. The home has many nice large bedrooms with TVs and well equipped bathrooms. And every day we swam in the warm pool and had many hot tubs. The backyard is very private with the large trees and bushes. We really loved our stay here and would recommend this home to other visitors. When we arrived the barbecue had no gas in the tank, so we filled it up, so there is lots left for the next visitor.

Penny M. - Posted: 2/4/2021

Penny, thank you for the wonderful review of Absolute Paradise! I'm glad the home lived up to its name for your group! I'm sorry that the propane tank was empty upon your arrival. Please note that if you call our office, we would be happy to provide propane refills for you should they be needed. We hope that we will be able to welcome you back to AMI very soon!

Beautiful house that was perfect for 2 families of 4! The location was great, quick walk to the beach, trolley stop or Pine St. Enjoyed the pool area and watching sunset from crows nest balcony. Beds were comfy but would highly recommend a living room makeover as the couch and chairs are not comfortable and also set up was not conducive for us all to watch a movie on rainy day/night. We were surprised that all the shops close at 5 and some of the restaurants by 8-9 but regardless. we had a great vacation!!
