A night full of stillness – a breeze comes telling the stars too many to count.The review that says backyard not divided is correct. Not stated and the photos show it not divided. There is a measure of privacy on the patio. Here is another recent guest review: ” A cute clean house with a beautiful backyard garden! Nice and clean and close to the beach. Owner stayed in constant contact and we had zero problems. Would gladly stay here again!”A guest had this to say: “Songbird is a cute little purple house on a quiet side street on Anna Maria Island. I referred to the house as little, it is really quite spacious & comfortable. This is our 6th stay at Songbird & we are looking forward to our next stay. This trip we were on side B but have also stayed on Side A, both are equally as nice.The kitchen is well stocked with all the cooking essentials. Pots, pans, coffee maker, toaster, blender etc. There is also a charcoal BBQ in the backyard.The living room is open and airy with a recliner, love-seat, bigcomfortable couch & a large TV. The master bedroom has a king bed with a comfortable and supportive mattress. Nightstands, a dresser and closet gives plenty of room to unpack so you won`t feel like you are living out of your suitcase while staying here. The 2nd bedroom is quite large & has twin beds. According to my daughter and travel companion the beds and room are very comfortable.The linen closet is stocked with extra bedding, towels, face clothes and lots of beach towels.The backyard is huge with lots of places to take advantage of the warm Florida sunshine, read a good book or enjoying some quiet time on your own. There are several table & chair sets as well as a couple reclining chairs. Fruit & palm trees gives the backyard a tropical feel and offer a bit of privacy.Washer & dryer are located in a porch outback and shared with people renting the other side of the house. We have never had a problem with this, as knowing it is shared anyone keeps their eye on the laundry and removes it as soon as it is finished.A few “extras” Joel has in place for quests at Songbird are bikes to use for leisure or to get around the island, the wi-fi reaches the backyard and there is free US/Canada wide long distance on the house phone.I hope this helps with your decision to stay here. We highly recommend it.”3 Adults maximum and and 4 people total1. The Gulf beach access is 4 blocks but 3 are short blocks and it ends up being 3 in length and having done it a number of times you cut the corners at 64th street and Holmes Blvd and when you arrive at Gulf Drive and 65th there is the beach access and a few parking places. The real good thing is that you don’t cross Marina Drive [busy street]. Some guests have driven over and parked or dropped off people and headed back to Songbird and grabbed a bike and pedaled back.2. Located in the middle of the block on a quiet street with less traffic as 62nd st does not go directly to the beach access..3. Free fast wifi and Washer and Dryer at no charge. Ironing board and iron. Hair dryer also.4. Provided bikes are a ladies step through style because they are easier to pedal and easier on and off. All have baskets. There are 7 bikes.5. There is central air installed in 2019. In January 2023 new ducts.6. New refrigerator 2016 with automatic ice maker in the freezer.7. The BBQ is a charcoal type and I do not supply coals.8. The kitchen has been updated with white cabinets in early 2000’s and is fully stocked with cooking utensils and almost always salt and pepper. Also all linens, towels and so on.9. A beach wagon to haul your stuff is provided. Umbrella, beach chairs, and beach toys too.10. House landline phone provided for local calls and free long distance to North America and Territories. Canadians like this idea a lot.11. New 2019 King Bed [Sealy Black Opal]. The twin mattresses new in 2019. No complaints from guests. Maximum 4 people and maximum 3 adults minimum age 25.12. The Ugly Grouper is 5 blocks south and a popular place. Close enough to walk.13. 7 blocks to Island Shopping Center [think 1960] with 4 restaurants, clothing stores, hardware store, art gallery and more. The popular Ugly Grouper restaurant is 5 blocks.14. Holmes Beach public library is 5 blocks away. Sweet library!15. Updated kitchen and bath fixtures16. No stairs here as an easy living ground level place.17. TV is a 43″ flat thin screen with Roku and Youtube TV.18. 2 bedrooms and 1 Bath with tub with shower with 2 grab bars.19. No pets and no smoking. A number of people verify no pets as they have allergies and, yes, no pets.20. The cleaner has been cleaning for almost 3 years and does nice work.21.The patio has a table with chairs.22. Outdoor shower when home from the beach.23. I supply dish soap, hand soap, one roll paper towels, 4 rolls of TP, dish sponge, laundry soap no scent, and garbage bags.24. A free trolley has a stop 1 block away to go north and a stop to go south is 3 blocks at the beach access. 6am-10pm and runs at 20 minute intervals.25. Parking space for two cars.26. Backyard is a nice sizeI have found that people arrive and unload luggage and head to the beach. The busiest street on the island in this spot is Marina Drive and you do NOT cross it on the way to the beach.Again, thank you for your time.
