1 Br Guest House Vacation Rental In Anna Maria, Florida

We don't want to waste your time so please carefully read the listing details before you request to stay.

A few points before you go any further -

1. The Boathouse is for a maximum of 2 guests aged 25 or over. No children, no infants, no exceptions.
2. When arranging your travel plans please note that our checkout time is 11 am. We strive to keep the Boathouse in pristine condition which requires time on a changeover day. It is therefore unlikely that we can accommodate an early check in although we are happy for you to drop off luggage in the garage (must be after 11am so as not to disturb the guests who are staying).
3. Only the registered VRBO account holder and their guest can book and occupy the home - please do not try and book the home on behalf of someone else.
4. The Boathouse is a maximum of a 7 day stay.

A note about the pool heat. While the pool is heated during the winter months as with all pool heat, at times when the ambient temperature drops too low (50’s and 60’s) the heater will be unable to operate.
