    Wonderful Resort on the beach.

From the moment I stepped in and looked out the balcony it looked like something out of a movie, the water was just a mere steps away from our balcony and we can hear the oceans crashing by when we opened the sliding doors. It was incredible! The rooms is my specific condo we're clean, organized, and spacious where as much as 6 people fit in it, with a full kitchen as well. I ended up working here since I have the ability to work from my laptop and the WiFi was phenomenal given that about 5 of us were on it simultaneously. Being able to work with a view like that was something out of a dream. I highly recommend renting out umbrellas and chairs if you are coming in the summer. It came out to $120 for the week and that included both the chairs and umbrella. Each condo is only allowed to rent up to 2 umbrellas but you can take as many chairs as you want that can fit under the two. The ability to wake up every morning and dive into the ocean in mere seconds was priceless. I also got to enjoy many sunsets from the comfort of the condo, while playing board games with the family. I wouldn't trade the time I had here for anything in the world. I will definitely be coming back and making more memories here soon.

    Bottom Line: I'll never trade or sell my timeshare week here!!…read moreWe have been coming here for years and hope to be coming for the rest of our lives! Located on one of the wealthiest beaches - this place is older and affordable. The amenities are few, and a lot of the decor is outdated and cheap chain hotelesque, such as ugly fake floral arrangements and tacky placemats. The kitchens have been updated in the last few years (2013 and ongoing). Granite kitchen counters and new dishwashers. The kitchen is fully equipped with fridge, stove, dishwasher, plates, bowls, cups and such. The basics, perfect for a week or so. There is a super upscale Publix directly across the street. Even though the place is older - it is always clean. It's quiet and it's on a beautiful stretch of beach. You can go from your room to being in the gulf in 100 steps. What more can you ask for? They have shuffle board, basketball hoop/tennis court combo, beach volley ball, ping pong table, pool table and bikes. There are also board games for check out at the front desk. There are plenty of chaises by the pool and on the beach. It is a timeshare so there are always owners who never want to trade because they love the place. There are also plenty of people who traded to be there and first time renters. One of our favorite places to be!

    The location is excellent, but unfortunately, the property itself is outdated, poorly maintained,…read moreand in significant need of repairs and management attention. Upon arrival, we immediately noticed maintenance issues. The blinds in our unit were broken and lying on the floor, setting the tone for what became a disappointing stay. Throughout the week, there was no housekeeping service of any kind--no bed making, no fresh linens, no replacement of kitchen towels, and no general upkeep. We were expected to keep and reuse the same towels, including damp and increasingly unpleasant kitchen towels, for the duration of our stay. The towel process itself was one of the most frustrating aspects of the experience. Guests are required to turn in towels and then be issued replacements for any trip to the pool or beach. The process felt unnecessarily restrictive and, at times, demeaning. We were repeatedly instructed where to take towels, where to pick them up, and what we could and could not touch. On one occasion, when we brought towels to housekeeping during the designated day and time window, each towel was individually inspected. We were lectured about makeup stains, informed about their laundering procedures, and warned that we could be charged for anything they could not remove. This level of scrutiny felt excessive and inappropriate. In all my years of staying at hotels, resorts, and vacation rentals, I have never been threatened with replacement charges for normal wear on old, frayed towels. Another major issue was the insect problem. Staff themselves joked that there was an unusually high concentration of bugs this season. Unfortunately, the situation was far from humorous for guests. Bugs were constantly entering through poorly sealed windows and doors, crawling across the room, getting into beds, and covering personal belongings. When we asked whether the property sprayed for pests or offered any assistance, we were told they do not spray and provide no solutions. No guest should have to spend nights dealing with insects crawling on them while they sleep. Customer service was also disappointing. Several interactions with front desk staff left us feeling as though we were being scolded rather than assisted. As first-time guests, we naturally had questions about procedures and amenities, but the responses often felt condescending. Rather than helping guests navigate the property's unusual policies, staff frequently spoke to us as though we should already know the rules. The shared amenities were equally problematic. When we attempted to use the BBQ area, we discovered there were no utensils available because another unit had taken them upstairs and kept them. Despite cleaning up after ourselves, we were later told that the grill needed cleaning the following day, apparently due to another guest's use. There seemed to be little oversight or accountability regarding shared resources. Noise and safety issues further diminished the experience. One night, an apparently intoxicated underage resident caused a major disturbance on our floor from approximately 2:00 a.m. until 4:00 a.m., eventually requiring police intervention. Surprisingly, the individual returned a few days later and was openly drinking again. Despite the significant disruption to guests, no compensation or accommodation was offered for the sleepless night. The family in the neighboring unit was also extremely noisy throughout our stay. Children repeatedly bounced a hard ball against the shared wall for hours at a time, day after day, with no intervention from management. Likewise, the pool and hot tub were frequently overcrowded with unsupervised children, making it difficult for other guests to enjoy the facilities. There appeared to be little enforcement of rules or consideration for guests seeking a quieter environment. Perhaps the most unusual part of the stay was that we were given materials encouraging us to become "owners" despite the property's obvious maintenance, service, and management shortcomings. Overall, while the location is undoubtedly attractive, the combination of poor maintenance, lack of housekeeping, pest issues, inconsistent customer service, noise disturbances, and inadequate management oversight made this a disappointing experience. This property may appeal to families with young children or groups looking for a more party-oriented atmosphere, but it was not the relaxing vacation experience we expected. Unfortunately, I would not choose to stay here again.

As others have noted in their reviews, Ken and Jeff are constantly working to keep up this lovely family resort. It is clean and landscaped beautifully, and the rooms are just right! With a sitting area in our two bedroom, we enjoyed the recliner and couch as we watched movies in the evening. In our full kitchen, we stocked the refrigerator from the local Publix and made our breakfast and lunch, which we packed for the beach. Many guests chose to grill out as we saw when we would load up to go to a local restaurant for dinner, but we preferred eating out! On our first night at Hurricane Hanks restaurant down the road, we met up with a resident who offered us more ideas for restaurants for dinner. There's nothing like walking right out onto the beach to spend a morning watching the waves, seeing dolphins frolic, observing osprey catching their breakfast, and swimming in the water among schools of fish. Many of the guests knew each other from yearly vacations, and we have already made our reservation for next year! Anna Maria Island is quiet and family friendly. White Sands Resort offers shuffleboard and corn hole right next to the pool, but the best show is the sunset. On our first night, we were surprised to see how many lined the beach to see God's beauty, of course clapping at the end! Thank you to Ken, Jeff, Joy, and Esther for a wonderful stay. We wish you the best in the coming year, and we look forward to seeing you again!

    We've been coming to Ana Maria Island for 30 years always renting a different place every time…read moreanyway we stumbled upon White Sands Beach resort maybe two years ago and it was absolutely spectacular the rooms are just perfect the bedding is comfortable the white sand is blinding and the color of the water is absolutely spectacular. Most of the folks that go here come back year after year and I understand why. Nothing like a family owned business they were card and it shows. I will be back.

There is no restaurant or bar on site, but there are some close by with a 5 to 10 drive. The staff is friendly, attentive and helpful. We were able to head to the beach while we waited to get our room, since we were early. There are loungers and chairs at the beach and it is first come first serve. The same applies to the pool. All rooms have ocean view, but our room was the one closest to the street, so we didnt get the same view as the ones up front. They have 2nd floor and a ground level rooms. The rooms are remodeled with an ocean theme, making it welcoming and getting that vacation feel. I did nit give it a 5 star due to the ac and all the humidity that you can feel at night. Not sure if it was our ac or just being too close to the beach that it was super stuffy, smelled a bit like mildew and it was uncomfortable to sleep. It is pricey, specially during the holidays but a nice hotel with an awesome beach
