POLICIES:
NO PETS. NO SMOKING.

Registered Guest must provide copy of ID, be at least 25 years of age and be present throughout entire stay.  

Standard occupancy is 2 persons per every standard bedroom, an additional occupant fee of $25 per person/per night will be assessed for each occupant over this up to max occupancy, if applicable.

Quiet Hours 10p-8a. You are vacationing in a residential area. Please be a good neighbor by keeping the noise to a respectful level during the day and night. Excessive and unreasonable noise can deprive neighbors of the peaceful enjoyment of their private property.

Reservations are typically taken for 7 night Saturday-Saturday stays. However, we can offer flexible stays with varying minimum night requirements and non-Saturday check-ins/check-outs during most of the year with exception to holidays and peak weeks unless city ordinances prohibit it. Always feel free to ask prior to booking to see if this is a possibility as we may not be able to accommodate changes after booking.

CLEANING AND SAFETY:
All our homes and linens are cleaned, sanitized, and inspected between each guest per industry standards.  A starter set of basic amenities, linens, towels, and bedding are provided at the beginning of your stay per home occupancy. Daily housekeeping or linen services are not included in your stay. 

Additional cleaning and laundry services are available by request mid-stay at additional charge. For stays of 28-days or more, a mid-stay clean will be required to be scheduled and paid by guest at additional cost.

This home participates in our Professional Linen Program. This ensures high quality linens and towels are provided according to the home’s occupancy at the beginning of your stay. These are professionally laundered at a commercial facility between each guest.  Please keep in mind extra sets are not kept in homes. 


GOLF CART RENTALS:
Golf carts are a fun and easy way to get around the island! After booking, reserve one for your stay with our sister company, Once Upon A Beach Carts, for an exclusive discount for our vacation rental guests!

BABY EQUIPMENT RENTALS:
Baby equipment is not available for use at the home for safety and sanitation reasons. We are however partnered with local companies offering rentals of these items including pick-up and drop-off.

POOL & SPA (if any):
The pool is heated year round at no additional cost for the convenience and comfort of our guests. Pool temperatures are set between 82-85 degrees and will not be set higher due to keeping proper chemical balance, clarity, and cleanliness of the pools. Due to strict city noise ordinances pool heaters and filters do not run during the hours of 10p-8a. Please note that cooler ambient temperatures (20 degree difference between water and air temperature) may result in pool heater unable to compensate the difference. We are not responsible for cold spells causing cooler pool temperatures or unexpected failure of equipment. Please note that a residential spa is a section of pool that once turned on provides relaxation, misting bubbles and warmer temperatures in the high 90s - low 100s but are not permitted to remain on 24/7 or will not reach temperatures like that of a commercial hot tub. Spas may not be operational during the months of June - September to avoid high temperatures of pool water which is detrimental to keeping proper pool chemical balances. Guests are required to read and abide by all posted rules, safety and operating information. Under no circumstance is any guest allowed to adjust pool equipment. Failure to abide may result in guests being fined or liable for any damages to equipment.

PROPERTY SECURITY/SAFETY:
Please note this home may be equipped with Ring, Nest or other exterior cameras viewing front door, driveways, pool equipment, and entry/exits of backyard areas only. Cameras are only intended to keep property safe and secure, monitor deliveries, assure occupancy, and are not angled into any areas where guests would assume or expect privacy.

Wonderful beach house!
We had a great family vacation at Sunsets on Carissa. The house is well equipped. Beds are comfy. Pool was wonderful. We enjoyed the backyard privacy. A lot of great family memories were made.

Sunsets on Carissa
First time visitors to Anna Maria ,we loved this island and this house so much we booked to come back after one week! Sunset on Carissa was nicely decorated, comfortable and had was well stocked with pool toys,chairs etc. The location was perfect, we could walk just about everywhere. The beach was just a block and a half away!

Sunsets on Carissa
If you're looking for an affordable and an impecable condition rental property in Anna Maria this one is it. This house was just as expected, comfortable, spacious, nicely decorated, everything worked to perfection, nice and clean beds, AC and fans worked fine, TV's in every room, clean pool and grill, just a block an half from the beach, plenty of beach things, umbrellas, chairs. We will definitely come back next year. My only recommendation would be to have more pots available, because of Covid we ended up cooking more than expected. Supplies like dishwasher detergent, toilet paper, soap, etc., was kind of limited, had to run to Publix for more within a few days.

Sunsets on Carissa
We stayed a few weeks in December. Some days were perfect but even the coolest days didn’t deter the kids from the heated poo. This house is a very short walk to beach (even with toddlers). The outdoor shower is warm and a nice addition to hose off from the beach. The last review mentioned limited cookware but it has been restocked and we cooked at the house most every day. There’s a Keurig that wasn’t pictured (we had brought our own and didn’t need) as well as plenty of cookware (even an immersion blender). We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and had no issues. It’s a nice, clean, quiet house. A personal favorite of ours was the detail done in the landscaping and that allows the backyard to feel completely private!

We loved our stay! The pool is so nice and the home is in a convenient location. The walk to the beach was easy even with two young children. Our favorite spot was the upstairs balcony where we watched the sunset a few nights. Thanks for having us and making the process so easy from booking to check out. We come to AMI every year and would definitely stay with Once Upon a Beach again!

Hi, I was curious if you had a floor plan doc? Are all three bedrooms on the same floor? Thanks!
