I’ve been living in the United States for five years, and this is by far the cleanest and best hotel I’ve ever stayed at. Everything was spotless, the rooms were beautifully maintained, and the entire property felt fresh and welcoming. The staff was friendly and professional, making our stay even more enjoyable. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an exceptional hotel experience.

The staff are helpful & friendly. The location is perfect to get back and forth to the beach , restaurants and use the free Anna Maria trolley.
The pool temperature was perfect & nice to have ping pong & jenga available . Room service was excellent. Would have preferred if parking was included in stay and not added charge .

Very unclean

The property is very nice and conveniently located in AMI. However after going for the second year in a row we were very disappointed. Very dirty. One walk around the room and our kids feet were black. No mopping goes on only vacuuming and the same things like sand where still on the floor each time we went back. One day they didn't put towels for us and ended up bringing it quick when we called. Best customer service was from a young man named Tyler who switched out our rooms as soon as we got there and hadn't gotten the same one as the year prior ( due to space ). We loved the hotel prior to this stay, and will most likely not be back. Getting outdated and like I said very unclean. The couches and the carpets are also very filthy. Big worry especially when traveling with kids and you see little cockroaches in the room.

Great location, beach was just a couple of minutes walk, free trolley/bus to go anywhere on the island with pickup in front of the hotel, activities available at the marina for booking and lots to explore! Only negative was the pool heater was on the fritz, didn’t miss it much with all the other things to do. Kids had to figure out life without fast food options!

AMI Waterline

Upon arrival, the desk clerk was super friendly and helpful. I believe he said his name was Luis. He had only been working for a couple of weeks but he was AWESOME! When we checked in our room, we did our normal wipe down, antibacterial spray, and check the bedding. Well, we discovered bugs that were extremely tiny and would normally be brushed away like lint but one moved which is what caught our eye. This is not a complaint but a highlight to the hotel staff, specifically Maggie, who came to our room and changed all three beds with fresh bedding. She was so friendly. Once we got clean beds, we had an awesome experience. Each day we interacted with staff, they were very friendly and helpful with which beach we should go to, where to eat, and how to catch the trolley. I would definitely come back.

Beautiful hotel and wonderful staff!

We loved our stay at the Waterside Marina! It was a perfect landing spot after a day of travel. The hotel is beautifully decorated and the staff was incredibly kind and helpful! The room was very nice with plenty of room to spread out and get comfy. We also enjoyed an evening swim in the beautiful heated pool with a poolside cocktail! We will definitely return if in the area again!

Not impressed - wish I was...

NO ROOM SERVICE even though hotels.com says there are limited hours of room service. NOT ADVERTISED CORRECTLY. No room service. NONE. Also, this place is poorly managed. Not the fault of the staff who seem to be doing the best they can with a difficult situation. Example: If you press \"0\" on your phone for front desk - it will ring and ring. There is no answering machine alerting you to the hours. Then if you go downstairs - you wait 10-20 minutes for the front desk to \"get off the phone with a guest\" and respond to you. Also - rooms starting with \"3\" are on the 2nd floor not the 3rd floor - who came up with that? Our front door was not \"charged\" so our key cards to our rooms didn't work. Eventually they replaced it. Also if you're in the back of the property you have to climb up and down three flights of stairs - no elevators. I could go on and on but - basically a nice property, nice staff, poorly managed. Not worth the price. On the plus side - the onsite restaurant is good but - you DO need a reservation. No lattes onsite - I bring this up as a coffee addict. Limited food/drink options but all of it was tasty.

Rally nice place. Great location. But they had a lot of confusion on the boat slips. We got our slip taken and the lady at the desk said oh well?! We had to put our boat on a non designated area which was no good.
Great place , but a bad employee.

Hotel was great! Beautiful accomodations. Rooms were spacious and very comfortable. Stayed 3 nights with 2 kids and we had a great time. Walkable distance to shops and restaurants. The pool was nice and seemed to be heated which was great since it was chilly on our last day. We were even fortunate to see a manatee right from our balcony at the marina docks below along with several pelicans.. Amazing!

First Class in Anna Maria

I have been a regular visitor to the Anna Maria/Longboat Key area and am really familiar with it. It was, however, my first time staying at the Waterline. I must say, it was really top shelf! We stayed in one of the suites and the amenities were superb! While we were only there for one night we, unfortunately, did not get the chance to eat in the restaurant. We did however, order room service which was delicious. All in all, I would rate this hotel as first class and will most definitely be booking it again in the future!
