POLICIES:
NO PETS. NO SMOKING.


NOTE: Elevator* is available for guest use for convenience and ONLY available with prior approval and payment of fee. $149 FEE is required, which must be paid before your check-in. This fee is non refundable.

*This home is not wheelchair accessible and should not be relied on for those with mobility issues. If the elevator unexpectedly becomes inoperable, we cannot guarantee third party service repair times and stairs will be required. (Please note that elevator operation is currently subject to the ability to address necessary repairs and complete servicing in the aftermath of the hurricanes, and we appreciate your understanding as we work to restore full functionality.)

Guest Requirements:
Registered guests must be at least 25 years of age, provide a copy of a valid ID, and be present throughout the entire stay.

Occupancy Limits:
The standard occupancy is two persons per standard bedroom. For additional occupants beyond this limit, a fee of $25 per person, per night, will be charged, up to the maximum allowable occupancy, if applicable.

Quiet Hours:
Quiet hours are from 10:00 PM to 8:00 AM. As this property is located in a residential area, we ask that you respect our neighbors by maintaining a reasonable noise level both during the day and at night. Excessive or unreasonable noise may disrupt the peaceful enjoyment of the neighborhood and is not permitted.

Reservation Policies:
Reservations are typically for 7-night stays, Saturday to Saturday. However, we offer flexible stays with varying minimum night requirements and non-Saturday check-ins and check-outs during most of the year, except for holidays and peak weeks. Please inquire before booking to confirm availability, as changes cannot always be accommodated after booking.

Cleaning and Safety:
All homes, including linens and towels, are cleaned, sanitized, and inspected between guest stays according to industry standards. A starter set of basic amenities, linens, towels, and bedding is provided upon check-in, based on home occupancy. Daily housekeeping and linen services are not included but are available upon request for an additional fee. For stays of 28 days or longer, a mid-stay clean is required and must be scheduled and paid for by the guest.

This home participates in our Professional Linen Program, ensuring high-quality linens and towels are professionally laundered at a commercial facility between each guest's stay. Please note that extra sets are not stored in the home.

Golf Cart Rentals:
Explore the island with ease! After booking, reserve a golf cart through our sister company, Once Upon A Beach Carts, and enjoy an exclusive discount available only to our vacation rental guests.

Baby Equipment Rentals:
Baby equipment is not provided at the home for safety and sanitation purposes. However, we partner with local companies that offer rental services for baby items, including convenient pick-up and drop-off options. Details will be provided at the time of booking, or you may inquire directly for more information.

Pool and Spa (if any):
The pool is heated year-round at no extra charge for guest convenience, with temperatures maintained between 82-85°F to ensure proper chemical balance and cleanliness. Pool heaters and filters do not operate during quiet hours (10:00 PM to 8:00 AM) per local noise ordinances. Please note that cooler ambient temperatures, especially with a 20°F or greater difference between air and water temperatures, may impact the pool heater’s effectiveness.

The spa, when available, is a section of the pool that can provide relaxation, bubbles, and water temperatures in the high 90s to low 100s. However, it is not designed to function as a commercial hot tub and is not permitted to operate 24/7. Spas may be unavailable during summer months (June–September) to prevent overheating of the pool water, which could compromise chemical balances. Guests are prohibited from adjusting pool equipment; failure to comply may result in fines or liability for damages.

Guests are required to read and follow all posted rules, safety information, and operating instructions.

Property Security and Safety:
This home may be equipped with exterior cameras, such as Ring or Nest, positioned to monitor the front door, driveways, pool equipment, and entry/exit areas of the backyard. These cameras are installed solely to enhance property security, monitor deliveries, and ensure occupancy limits are met. Cameras are not angled toward areas where privacy is expected or assumed.

PAYMENTS:
  • 50% of total amount due must be made at time of reservation request to confirm reservation.
  • 50% of total amount due must be paid on or before 60 days prior to check-in date.

This home was absolutely superb!! It had everything we could have wanted and more. My children loved the foosball table, the ping pong table, and the ring toss, as well as the Xbox. The adults enjoyed the pool, hot tub, and the outdoor bar area. The house itself was immaculate and very comfortable. There was plenty of room for my family of four, as well as my parents. We will defiantly be renting Batemans again!!

Working with Nikki and Michael was excellent. The house is beyond beautiful, everything you could possibly think of has been provided. This is a MUST Go place, rent a golf cart and boat and live the best life. Owners are beyond accommodating , outside living space is perfect. We did Thanksgiving outside with family and it was PERFECT. Thank you for such a great experience, and my family and I cannot wait to go back!

This will be the house we book again! It greatly exceeded our expectations and the pictures do not do it justice. It was sparkling clean, much larger than expected and our welcome gift was so unexpected. The added bonus was the abundance of blankets, beach towels and toiletries. It was like being at home but of course so much better. The location is amazing and so relaxing. You are a short stroll to the beach and downtown, yet tucked away in your own private oasis. Anytime we had a minor question, Nikki responded back immediately. It was as if we had our own private concierge. I do not have a single thing I would change about this home and this house will be the reason we return to AMI as we often visit different location in FL to escape the cold of Ohio. I LOVE this house and we plan to return ASAP. Thanks for all!

This beautiful home has everything you could ever need. It is gorgeous and looks like it should be in a magazine. The four bedrooms are huge and my teenagers appreciated having their own space as well as bathroom. The beds are comfy and there are tons of extra blankets. There are plenty of regular towels, pool towels and beach towels. The location is perfect and we were able to walk to the pier, Bean Point or Pine Avenue for an ice cream break. The garage is fully stocked with everything you need for beach as well as fishing gear. My daughter even caught a 26" fish off the dock in back of the house! We can't wait to book our next trip to Anna Maria Island!!

Lovely, comfortable, private home that is fully stocked from the kitchen to the outside amenities (especially liked playing Corn Hole in the evenings). We enjoyed the opportunity to boat and kayak from the dock, and our main mode of transportation was golf cart. The beach at Bean Point is expansive and beautiful and is about a 10 minute walk from the home or quick golf cart ride. Visiting Egmont Key was a favorite plus enjoyed seeing the dolphins on the way there! We encourage all to take in a gorgeous sunrise from the pier area and a sunset from the beach. If anything, there is so much to do here, there is simply not enough time in a week span to leisurely do it all! We were also thrilled to see a manatee from the dock!

Absolutely amazing! Our first visit to AMI! This home featured ample space for 4 couples to have private bedrooms/bathrooms plus areas to dine/cook/entertain in different areas of the home. We enjoyed the outdoor area, pool/hot tub and fishing! Beautifully appointed with all the amenities! Excellent location! We will be back!! Thanks!

Yup, we'll be back! This house was perfect for our party of 8 (4 couples). All of the living area/bedrooms/laundry room were located on the main (upper) floor. The living room, kitchen, and dining room were open and great for group meals and hanging out together! The King bedrooms were perfect for each couple with each having it's own attached ensuite. The decor was current and lovely. The house was clean and well cared for...and the outdoor space....AMAZING! Such a fun outdoor area under the house blending into the back yard/pool area. The pool is heated, the spa gets hot, the sectional seating area has a fire pit table, and the dining/bar area has a TV for watching football games. There's also a hammock, foosball table, and ping pong table. What else could you ask for?? The house was well equipped with everything we needed, including plenty of beach chairs, beach buggies for hauling beach gear, coolers, beach towels, umbrellas and tents, and even fishing gear for fishing in the canal behind the house! When I reached out to the rental company for help with the Spa, they responded quickly and the information was helpful! We enjoyed sitting on the back porch in the mornings drinking coffee and watching the fish splash in the canal. We LOVED this house and had an amazing visit to AMI!

If you are looking to relax in a beautiful and fun fill spot, then this is the place for you. The apartment is outstanding and well equipped, set in a peaceful and private setting and the local places to eat and drink will not disappoint. We were amazed by the beaches with their white sand and clear blue seas. Nothing is too much trouble for Once Upon a Beach and our stay was a perfect mixture of slowing down and sightseeing. A big thank you from our family for making this stay special.

This house is truly marvelous! Our second visit to the Bateman's and AMI. We absolutely love the house and all that it offers. A massive kitchen and dinning area, large living room and very elegant bedrooms makes for an extremely comfortable stay. The outside area is awesome, the swimming pool, spa, table tennis, foosball and bar area with TV are perfect for hanging out at the house and firing up the grill. The dock on the canal is great for fishing off of (fishing gear in the garage) and spending hours just watching the manatee's go by. The house is in a wonderful location within walking distance to the local stores and restaurants, there are also many golf cart rentals near by. The beach "Bean Point" is amazing and only a short walk from the house, beautiful white sand, aqua color water and never very crowded. The house even has, beach chairs, coolers, canopy and a beach buggy to haul the gear to and from the beach!! We LOVE this house and the local area!
