Perfect beach retreat
We loved Cozy Cabana East! The property has been completed renovated since the hurricane and was spotless. Of special note were the huge and super comfy beds and the lovely pool area. The palm trees create privacy from the neighbours and much needed shade. The location means easy access to a quiet stretch of beach (under 5 minutes on foot) and we walked to Sandbar, Harry’s Grill, The Porch and the Waterfront for meals out. The cottage did not have bikes, parasol or beach cart and so we took advantage of the VayK voucher and were impressed by the quality of their gear and professional service. This is our second time with Once Upon a Beach (having stayed at Catching Waves - across the road!) and have been very happy with the service each time. We came to relax and chill in paradise (5th visit to Anna Maria) and can’t wait to be back. Thank you.


Thank you so much for the thoughtful and detailed review! We’re so happy to hear how much you enjoyed your stay at Cozy Cabana East—especially the comfort of the beds, the beautifully private pool area, and the easy access to the beach and great local dining spots. We’re also glad you were able to take full advantage of the VayK Gear rental service—it’s great to know it added to your experience!

It means the world to us that this was your second stay with Once Upon a Beach, and we’re honored to be part of your Anna Maria Island tradition. We can’t wait to welcome you back for your next relaxing getaway in paradise! 🌴☀️💙

Cute Home with a pool
We had a wonderful time staying at this recently renovated home. It was very clean and well appointed. The heated pool was lovely and the backyard in general felt like a mini resort.

Cozy Cabana East
Our family built great memories at the Cozy Cabana East, AMI that will be cherished forever. It is beautifully decorated, and the property was very clean and ready for us upon arrival. The kitchen has a beautiful view to the back yard, and is very comfortable for meal preparation and to eat in. All you need to bring is your food. The beach is a short walk and the property offers a great location and amenities such as wagons, beach chairs, and toys for little ones to use at the beach. The back yard was our favorite place to have our family dinners that was cooked on the four burner grill. It was perfectly created for a family retreat and for those who are looking to cool down in your private pool after a hot day at the beach. The nights at the back yard felt like “Fiesta Time” with the colorful pool lights, the tasteful and well manicured landscaping, and the string lights that illuminated the yard. We highly recommend this property, and will return soon to this 5 star BEACH OASIS!

Thank you so much for this beautiful review! We’re absolutely thrilled to hear that Cozy Cabana East was the setting for such cherished family memories. It means the world to know the home, backyard, and amenities helped create a truly relaxing and fun-filled retreat for your group. We especially love hearing how much you enjoyed those “Fiesta Time” evenings—it's exactly the kind of joyful atmosphere we hope to create! Thank you for the high recommendation, and we can’t wait to welcome you back to your 5-star beach oasis! 🌴☀️🌊

Cozy Cabana East
What a delightful, casual anniversary getaway. The cabana atmosphere was cozy, yet spacious with a mellow beach decor. The private pool offered a secluded, relaxing respite after long strolls on the white sand Gulf beach. It was such a comfortable vacation on a genuinely mesmerizing island atmosphere that we booked a 2nd trip only 4 weeks later. Thank you, Nikki. You make it so easy to enjoy this lovely island.
Bill & Mary L - Posted: 6/19/2023
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review! We’re so glad your anniversary getaway at Cozy Cabana was everything you hoped for—relaxing, comfortable, and filled with that laid-back island charm. It means so much to hear that the space and private pool added to your experience and that you loved it enough to book a return trip so soon! We truly appreciate your kind words and can’t wait to welcome you back to this little slice of paradise. 💙🌴

Cozy Cabana East
We had a glorious stay on AMI beach at Mike and Nikki's Cozy Cabana East. It's a comfortable nest like our very own, decorated to perfection so it feels like home. My wife always raves at the attention they pay to updating the decor whenever we stay. It is fresh and clean like the white beach sand and if we ever must call they are always on hand. The Cabana has such a cute, charming appeal with all we could need for a vacation ideal
Bill L - Posted: 6/19/2023
Thank you so much for your beautiful words! We’re truly touched by how much Cozy Cabana East has come to feel like home for you.

Cozy Cabana East
We very much enjoyed our time in AMI and our stay at Cozy Cabana East. The back-yard was our own private oasis to enjoy a bit of pool time and family dinners together. The turf, lights and decor are amazing! The house was very clean and Nikki and Team did an excellent job of communicating throughout our stay. The location was great for walks to the beach (the beach goes on for miles and is fabulous for morning runs/walks) and into town for coffee, lunch, shopping, etc. We'd love to be back in AMI and won't hesitate to rent from Once Upon a Beach!

Cozy Cabana East
This duplex is exceptionally decorated and has a garage full of everything you need for the beach! Chairs, wagons, toys, bike, metal detector, ect! Beautiful back yard. This house seems over priced for the size. We are staying in a 4 bedroom house coming up that is closer to the beach for the same price and just as beautifully decorated. It is a great, cozy house though and we were very happy with everything.
Brittani C - Posted: 6/19/2023
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and that the home’s decor, backyard, and beach gear helped make it a comfortable and convenient getaway. We truly appreciate your feedback regarding the pricing and always strive to provide a great experience that matches the value. It’s wonderful to know you were happy overall, and we’d love the opportunity to host you again in the future—perhaps at one of our larger properties that might be a better fit for your needs. Thanks again for staying with Once Upon A Beach!
