Hotels Near Anna Maria Island Historical Society in Anna Maria

The resort was conveniently located on the beach and the decor was nice. We stayed in one of the newly renovated rooms. The bar tenders and most of the staff was very friendly. There was one front desk girl with painted on eyebrows that was not so much. The electrical and equipment/fixtures were another story. The first night was like we were staying in a low budget hotel, and nothing really changed. We arrived late for check in. There was no hot water in any of the facets in our suite and no water pressure in the bathroom sink facet. The lighting fixtures above the nightstands in the bedroom would turn off and on at random times a couple times an hour. The ceiling fan in the bedroom was broken and had a mind of its own. It would speed up and slow down on its own. When it sped up too much the thing would rattle and shake and make noise during the night. The fan would also stop all the way on its own and reverse directions. Then the AC/Cooling system on the roof would turn on and vibrate and hum in our room off and on all night. Not peaceful at all! It was like we were staying in a haunted low budget hotel. When I woke up in the morning (if I slept), my phone was dead even though I had it plugged into the convenient phone charger on the nightstand. I brought these issues up to the front desk the next morning and they sent maintenance staff up to our room. The breaker was tripped on the hot water tank, so that was resolved, and we had no more problems with water temp. The phone charger on the nightstand was not plugged in behind the nightstand and this was fixed. We were told: All of the bathroom sinks had the same facet and no water pressure. There was nothing he could do about it. The lights above the nightstand had some sort of sensor that he could not adjust. After he left, I tried waving my hand around to activate this sensor and the lights never responded to my action but would still turn off and on at random times a couple times an hour. He also said he did not have an answer for the fan or had no control over the noise level of the AC/Cooling system on the roof. We stayed there 4 nights with blinking lights and a haunted fan in the bedroom and had to put up with the noisy AC/Cooling system. Worst (4) nights of sleep in my life. I also received a $75.00 parking citation for parking the golf cart the wrong direction in the parking lot, which was a dead end. I was told I could park there by the front desk, but never told I had to be facing a certain direction. Love the Florida beaches, but will stay elsewhere next time.

It became obvious on check-in that the staff were pulling double or triple duty. Certainly as a result of staff shortages due to Covid, these folks were all pulling together to get things done. Not always available, there was always someone to find what you needed. The room was clean and the beds very, very comfortable. The breakfasts were good and well maintained. Julie, Holly and Jeff made my wife and I very welcomed.

My boyfriend and I stayed at this location. Excellent, clean rooms and property. Best breakfast selection. The pool was heated, which my daughter enjoyed tremendously. Staff was very friendly. Some of the housekeeping staff didn't speak any English, but I was still able to get what I needed from them. I wish I got her name. She was so nice. Will definitely start staying at other locations.

The location is within img academy, so it is very suitable for boarding student care, the swimming pool is convenient to use, and the facilities and interior of the rooms are excellent.
