POLICIES:
NO PETS. NO SMOKING.


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.

  • 50% of total amount due must be made at time of reservation request to confirm reservation.

Beautiful home!
Our family of six adults and two kids enjoyed a week’s stay at Salty Pirate in January 2024. The house was well equipped with everything we needed including bikes for rides to the beach. It was spotless and beautifully appointed and plenty of room for everyone. We rented a golf cart from OUAB that got us around the island all week. We also used the handy trolley to go to the other end of the island which was super convenient and an easy walk from the house as well as restaurants and shops. We loved our views to both sides of the island from the balconies. The pool and hot tub were very clean and fun for the whole family. Heather from OUAB was thorough and so helpful with suggestions for activities, grocery shopping, and restaurants. I had a previous experience with another island rental agency that was very unpleasant, so I was so appreciative of the personable staff at OUAB. Every staff member I encountered was eager to assist and enthusiastic. We have referred several friends to OUAB and will definitely rent again with them.

Such a lovely home! This home was well decorated and clean. We were able to walk to local restaurants, shops and the beach or catch the trolley if needed at the pier. Once Upon A Beach was easy to work with and available if needed. Will definitely book through them again.

We spent a week in Feb 2020 at Salty Pirate. The house was beautiful and very well kept. Very well equipped for cooking, cleaning and washing. The bikes, kayak, and SUPs were all very new and in great condition. Beach chairs and toys for the kids. We had a group of 6 adults and 4 kids and everyone was happy. We've been doing this almost every year for last 5 and this is by far the nicest overall place. Also, the owners provide great communication and key advice to make the trip easier and more fun. Thank you for making this a really great experience.

Our family of 6 stayed for 5 days in this lovely appointed home! Extremely well equipped, clean and lots of space- more room than we needed actually. Pool and all the beach accessories you could want and excellent location for beach, bayside and restaurants. Recommend highly!

We just stayed 5 nights in the Salty Pirate. It was our first time in AMI and we had a fabulous time. The house was perfect for our family of 4 plus our college aged children's friends. The property was very clean and all of the extras were definitely a plus. The pool was great. Loved the location as well. Can't wait to stay again.

Our family of 6 plus my parents stayed at this beautiful canal home for 5 nights as a celebration for both a college grad and HS grad. We loved everything about it! Spacious bedrooms and a well appointed kitchen. The pool isn’t huge, but it’s lovely, and the hot tub actually got hot (but had to be turned on in advance). Loved that bikes were included, as well as kayaks and paddle boards. We loved paddle boarding from the dock in the canal, but you need to watch the tides. We loved our dinners on the large deck off the kitchen. Just a couple blocks down from The Waterfront Restaurant, Two Scoops (best ice cream ever), and Pine Street. Also close to the Anna Maria City Pier. The water here was crystal clear, and we found a bunch of sand dollars. Highly recommend this beautiful beach house!
