April Stay

The house and pool were perfect! So close to the beach, and the house was quaint, private, and clean. We loved spending time on the back patio and in the pool (in also has a light in the pool for evening swimming). Only two small issues while we were there: The pool might have a small leak somewhere because the water level went down a few times and needed some water added, and the beach umbrella provided was rusted out and broke on the first use. Other than that, there were three newer beach chairs provided and kitchen had enough to do some baking meal prep. House is such a short walk to the beach! And so close to everything on AMI. We had a great week and would love to come back someday!

House was awesome!

We had an AMAZING time. I would recommemd to our friends and family and would love to return again. The following list are not complaints, but most of an FYI. A coffee cup and glass were broken, we threw them away, so no one would get hurt. The lamp in the masterbedroom was broken, and the master bathtub was draining very slowly. There wasnt a pot holder or a clean cooking sheet. Hope this helps for future guests to also enjoy their stay.

Exactly as advertised! I was very pleased with the property. It was exactly as shown in the pics. Very close to the beach and with an easy driving distance of several restaurants and shopping locations. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to friends.

Great location

The house was beautiful! Could use a few more hangers but otherwise it was great. Would stay there again!! Love having our own pool. A cold front came through so the water in pool got cold but otherwise couldn't ask for better weather. Easy walk to the beach. Quite street.

AWESOME PLACE TO STAY

We LOVED staying here! It was clean, beds were comfortable, furnishings were beautiful, and location is amazing! It is only a block from the beach, and it's such a pretty walk! The washer & dryer died on the first night. They were out the next day and replaced it with a brand new stackable unit. Great people to work with! The bedroom with the twin beds is EXTREMELY tight. Not even enough room to have luggage in there. I would suggest bunk beds, so you would have more room to move and keep your luggage in there! We will definitely be staying there again!

Family vacation

Perfect location for trolley, beach, restaurants, grocery store and shopping. The house was very clean and comfortable. We only cooked breakfast and lunch but the kitchen was very well stocked with pots, pans and cooking supplies. Be aware only salt, pepper and a few spices are supplied. We will definitely be staying again. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Want to thank AMI Locals for being super responsive over the holiday break when the hot water tank failed, allowing us to continue our vacation. Well-equipped unit which was comfortable for our group. Thanks

Haus insgesamt gut eingerichtet, aber zu teuer!

Insbesondere Küche gut eingerichtet/ausgestattet, Aussenbereich aber wenig einladend und zu klein, professionelle Betreuung, Haus für das Gebotene insgesamt aber zu teuer! Anders als bei FeWo angegeben ( Miete in 2 Raten zahlbar) wurde der gesamte Mietpreis sofort zu 100 % abgebucht-es folgten unnötige Hakeleien mit der wenig hilfreichen FeWo Hotline!

I would recommend this property! Very clean and exactly as shown in pictures.

This is a great clean property. It was too bad the red tide affected our beach trips but we did just travel north a bit to St Petes which was equally lovely. The house was exactly as shown in pictures. We love AMI and plan to return next month as well.

Beautiful home, closer to the beach than expected, clean and well kept

We had a wonderful visit at Ariel's By The Sea. This is a beautiful property, well maintained, perfect size for our family of 4. The kids loved the pool; Tara and I loved the short walk to the beach. The house has everything for a care free stay on the island. The trolley stop is steps from the front door. Quiet and family friendly. Will stay again!!!

Perfect little house

We just loved Ariel's by the Sea! It's the perfect size for 6 adults. The walk to the beach is probably less than 5 minutes, and unlike many other properties in AMI, we used the pool every day! Great location. We will definitely be back!!

We would stay again.

Had a water leak issue upon arrival but owner was quick to send maintenance to take care of it. Also, we thought we were supposed to have an email with code to open the front door but did not so called owner and left message then called real estate company on sign in yard who told us they had an envelope for us to pick up. That was news to us. However, the friendliness and concern for our stay from the owner, the proximity to the beach, along with the beauty and cleanliness of the house was enough for us to stay at Ariels again! We had a wonderful time! (Haven't received any info on the return of our security deposit though.)
