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 RENTAL EQUIPMENT:
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.

Modern and spacious beach house!
This gorgeous house was perfect for a relaxing getaway for our 2 families. The house has 2 primary suites as well as a bunk room and another guest room which was perfect for our families. The whole house is clean and recently updated. The balconies were the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee or evening drink and the kids loved the pool. The house was stocked with everything we needed for the beach (which is just a short walk from the house). We can’t wait for our next trip to AMI and Serenity Now!

Serenity Now
Both home and location are fabulous. It’s a great spot for girl friends’ getaway, for a large family, or multiple couples. The home’s floor plan is extremely flexible. All baths were well-designed and appliances were great. The decor was comfortable and appealing. The home was very clean and extremely well-equipped. The outside living and lounging areas featured a sparkling pool. I found the central location allowed for easy access to all the great amenities on the island but was also very quiet at night. It’s a minute walk to trolley stop and two blocks from beach access. Anna Marie Island is my happy place and the home a perfect retreat.

Serenity Now
We had the most amazing week stay in AMI for the 2nd year in a row. This house is absolutely perfect in every way. Comfort, location, décor, amenities…..we struck gold with this house! I can not say enough about Once Upon a Beach as a company either! After being a bit disappointed with our original rental, we were offered this property and we are so glad that we took the offer, it truly completed our entire 5 star vacation in our favorite place in the country….AMI! We can’t wait to come back.

We had an amazing stay at Serenity Now! The home is modern and comfortable with plenty of space. The master bedrooms have great beds with clean well-designed en suite bathrooms and balconies. The balconies have comfortable chairs which are great for reading a book or the newspaper in the morning. The living area is open to the highly functional kitchen and the couches provide enough space for a large group to spread out to watch TV or play games around the coffee table. The backyard is great with seating areas for relaxation and dining and the pool is beautiful with multiple levels for laying back or sitting in the water. The beach is an easy walk away and the property has a good assortment of beach chairs, umbrellas, games and a handy wagon to pull it all in. We’ll definitely be back!
