The property is so close to a beautiful beach that I didn’t even get winded walking there with all my stuff! Also, very close to some great restaurants and shopping areas.
We absolutely loved everything about our stay! The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. The location was perfect, a few steps to the beach, and close to all the restaurants and shops! The pool and backyard were so relaxing, and the entire family loved it! We plan on coming to AMI every year, and this will be the home that we book every time!! Thank you for a great vacation in paradise!

Great Location
The location of the property was spectacular. The house itself was good and plenty of space for us. However the house could use a refresher and overhaul. Nothing terrible but just could use a pick me up and some TLC.
Overall good stay at a good value with an amazing location.
Property was everything promised. Great quiet location, clean, well stocked and comfortable. Nice to not have to go out and buy cleaning supplies, soap, etc. Walking distance to restaurants, shops and free trolley. Just a short walk to beach with nice views of both sunrises and sunsets. Property manager was quickly responsive to questions/issues. Would definitely stay again.
Lovely home property for couples or family, large enough for privacy and near restaurants and beach. Could walk to many places nearby and didn’t need to go anywhere else for much. Beach toys in garage were a nice surprise. The pool was pretty and it was private, but it was also so hot the water was warmer than you would normally enjoy.
This was a great place to stay! With the varying temperatures during our trip, the multiple outdoor options were great! The elevator was a big plus to take our luggage and groceries up and down. We feel lucky we were still able to stay here after the hurricanes, that being said the house needs a little TLC and was not super clean. The hosts were prompt to respond and very courteous! One thing to note about the pool-it is mostly in the shade so it was quite chilly but it has a nice little pool!
You will not be disappointed! The location of this property is perfect! Only steps to the beach and the view of the Gulf from the upstairs balcony is spectacular. The layout of the house works for all and the backyard pool is wonderful for cooling off in the afternoon. The only minimal issue is the cleanliness of the property. It could really use a thorough deep clean and some attention to detail. Overall - a wonderful vacation experience!
Lovely home, Perfect location! Just what we needed!
Loved this house! The location was perfect, close to everything and steps to the beach. It featured a gorgeous small pool with Jacuzzi that was so refreshing after a day at the beach. We were a group of childhood friends on a girl's trip. The house was well equipped with plenty of towels, some beach accessories, as well as a cart to tote items to the beach (1/2 block) Communication with the host was great. There is a garage. The washer and dryer was nice to have! The elevator was great for luggage and groceries. The house is 3 stories to afford a magnificent view from all floors!
The property was awesome! Loved the different levels and having an ocean view! You can walk to restaurants and shopping. Easy drive to other favorite spots. The space was awesome. Our only complaint would be the bed in master bedroom... mattress is way too soft. My husband and I had daily back pain because of it. I'd recommend the owner get a more "middle of the road: mattress... not too soft, not too firm :) Other than that, we loved this property!!
My family vacation was excellent, locationnof this property made it. Home needs alot of attention,
A) Water stains on ceiling in both bedrooms, family room and the worst was in the 1/2 bath on 3rd floor.
B) Crown molding peeling in family room as well as in master bedroom.
C) Both bathrooms need to be regrouted and need industrial cleaning lots of mold.
D) Exterior of house needs a good paint job.
The house was great, we liked the heated pool and the terrace from the living room with a view of the ocean was amazing. The beach was really just a step away from the house. Rick was very nice in communication, he responded very quickly to any questions. The proximity of restaurants and shops is also a 3-minute walk. We liked the Italian restaurant (Vinny's Italian Kitchen), because we are Europeans. I recommend it to everyone. Thank you very much, we will definitely come back. Eva
Stayed here for two weeks. I’ll start with the positives: close to beach, shops and restaurants; great view of the ocean; pool was nice; and manager was responsive. Now for the negatives. First the place was filthy. Doesn’t appear to have had a deep clean in years (earlier reviews attest to this). There was built-up dust and dirt on the moldings and window frames. Plus it wasn’t cleaned properly. For example, master bathroom didn’t even appear to have been cleaned - mirror spots, faucet wasn’t wiped down, toothpaste in sink, drain catch had debris, shower glass was spotty, hairs in the shower, mold on shower head, counter dirty, hair on floor. Just gross. Floors all over house were dirty, appliances hadn’t been wiped down. You get the picture. We called the manager the day we arrived and he was apologetic and sent the cleaner the next day. However after hours of cleaning, it was apparent he didn’t know basic housecleaning. My spouse and I cleaned the place ourselves. The second negative is that the place was rundown and tired. Some examples: Couch was stained, chaise lounge by pool broken, bathroom floor tile and grout chipping/missing (and appears to have been this way for quite awhile - I see this in earlier reviews). This could be a great property just needs some upkeep and attention. We can’t wait to come back to Anna Maria Island, just not this place.

Needs a lot of care
We chose this property because of the excellent location and private pool. It did deliver on both those fronts. However, Upon our late night arrival we found the property to be incredibly dirty. So much so that I emailed the property manager right away. The bathroom floors and showers were full of hair. There was so much dust on the ceiling fans that we couldn’t turn them on in fear of it falling. The kitchen was a wreck with food particles everywhere. The floor through out the house looked as if no one had mopped in a month. Many items in the house were in disrepair including the elevator that broke the second day. The couch and beds were so broken down and need replaced. Flaking paint on the ceiling’s, unsafe deck looking over the pool, trash and debris littering the garage, pool deck is unsafe, mold around the air vents, bathroom toilet didn’t flush right, the grout is broken and missing in the master bath, and old well used linens, is just the beginning. The pool was dirty and needed swept and the outdoor grill still had a piece of old salmon in it. I read some reviews on here that were similar to mine and didn’t believe them. It was really unfortunate that we wasted our money on this property. The property manager was responsive and apologetic, but it is very obvious these reviews haven’t encouraged them to step up their game and take better care of the property. Richard did have a cleaner come out the next day to spot clean some areas. Don't Waste your money!
This was our second stay at Cocina Sands, we absolutely love this place for the beach views and close walk to the beach!Restaurants and boating activities are also in walking distance.Having a private pool is everything after a long day at the beach.We will definitely be looking to return next year!Thanks again for allowing us to enjoy this property.
Great views, loved the elevator for bringing up groceries, luggage and also for loading up to go home. The view from the kitchen living area of the beach was fantastic. I enjoyed the warm pool at night to relax and exercise in. It was a very short walk to the beach and to several restaurants and shops. Perfect location! Thank you for sharing this great condo we me.
We had an amazing time, the home was comfortable, clean, very welcoming, had everything we could want or need.The beach is almost out the door, just beautiful. Home is convenient to everywhere on the island. Only wish we would have planned a longer stay!
Great stay but after leaving I looked to book for next same dates but found that the unit was already booked for 2027.Sure would have liked to stay in this unit next year.
Location is key and fantastic. View of the gulf is beautiful. A few things could have been better. Pool had green mold like spots most probably from a lack of long-term daylight sun. It's shaded longer than not. Grill would not get hot. Padlock did not work upon leaving and the main shower floor was like a skating rink. Very dangerous.
