Anna Maria Island hotel rooms a the Independent

"All I can say is wow what a great hotel it was like we were staying in an apartment kitchen and all the pool was small but clean the beach was right across the street they supply you with umbrellas and beach chairs the patio was huge and it was lined so no bugs come in it was a wonderful experience I highly highly recommend if your staying in Bradenton beach Anna Maria Island this place is the place to stay also there hospitality is amazing they actually care about everyone who stays there I was really impressed especially with the cleaning crew they do an Awsome job. "

"Amazing "

"The hotel and property is great mainly because it’s new. However you must be careful to ask what side your room is facing because “beachside” means to most people that you are getting a room that faces the beach. Not so with their meaning of beach side. “Beachside” for them is a room that faces the street where cars pass by. “Beachfront” means you are getting a room that faces the beach for them. So be careful and sure to ask what you are getting as I was fooled. "

"I want to highlight the excellent services provided, especially by Noah, who was fantastic. However, I did have a less-than-ideal experience with the staff member managing the umbrellas. She seemed a bit aggressive regarding the tiki area and asked us about our room checkout in a manner that felt rude, almost as if she thought we were taking advantage of our stay. It would be helpful if the communication could be more friendly and understanding in the future."

"This is a great place to stay, room was very clean and fresh!! 100% recommended!!"

"This was one of my favorite places I visited this year , I was so please with everything. Property felt so well taken care of , amenities perfect! Love you can use the beach chairs from other properties. The location is spot on from restaurants and bars. Im coming back! Parking perfect! The island was affected by the storms and they done a excellent job! "

"Extremely clean. Friendly, helpful staff that went above and beyond. I traveled with my teenage daughter and her friend and we never once felt unsafe. I was fine using the free trolley transportation up and down the island, but the girls talked me into renting a golf cart. That did provide more freedom for our short time there. The resort has golf carts for rent. We will definitely be back! "

"Beautiful room, it was clean and had everything we needed. The attendant at the front desk was really nice and sweet and helpful and so were the other employees. It was right on the beach. They gave us complimentary drinks at the bar which was amazing! Would come back again. "

"Customer service was great, property provided beach towels, umbrellas, toys, and boogie boards without additional cost. "
