“Sun! Warm! Florida blue skies!” Those are what draw people to vacation here. We took these pics at the beach right next to our property, they’re some of my favorites, and guess what? They all include clouds or rain! It is always beautiful here. Come on over, take it all in, and you’ll agree 😍

Did you know that if you stay with us at MI Happy Place you only need to pack a swimsuit and suntan lotion to enjoy a sunfilled day at the beach? We are located less than 200 steps from the Manatee Public Beach and its pristine white sand and each villa is equipped with a beach wagon, umbrella, cooler, beach chairs and towels. Do you need a break from the beach? Come back and and swim in our commercial-size pool or unwind in a hammock beneath the palm trees. Check out our availability at MiHappyPlaceAMI.com

❓When would you most like to have a vacation booked on the island, and why❓

The island is looking amazing, and we can make pretty good cases for a visit any time of the year! This pic is from January - just 3 short months after Helene.

‼️ Long post ~ but necessary ‼️

I wanted to post this text once more since it was kind of hidden in the video reel.

Although the hurricanes delivered a huge amount of destruction to MI Happy Place AMI, we feel very blessed this week. When we became owners of the property in 2018 we, like many others, loved the Old Florida feel of the island. Rather than tear down and build huge homes, we chose to preserve the quaint, charming feel of AMI.

The risk in that became reality in late September when all four villas were impacted with flood water from Hurricane Helene. But out of struggle comes opportunity as well!

We owe a huge gratitude to many people that, just three months later, we have been able to welcome guests again. Not only to welcome them, but to offer a place with some fantastic upgrades!

Our list of who we’ve been blessed by is long. Thanks to the city of Holmes Beach for approving reconstruction. Thanks to our general contractor Todd Radabach at REMCO building. Thanks to painter Noel from Shaw & Co. To carpenter Anthony, Ron and his plumbing crew, Zeb and his electricians, Sam and his tile guys. Shout out to Gulf2Bay Pools and the Splash Squad for the amazing pool recovery work. We can’t forget Miguel and his landscaping crew at M&F Landscape either!

All of that was just the rebuild! We also needed to refurnish and decorate the entire property and have great friends that volunteered their own time to travel to the island and help - thanks Jerry, Lee and Jeff ❤️ We had great help from our partners at Island Vacation Properties as well.

The video from a previous post shows our Sea Turtle villa, but as of yesterday they’re all rebuilt to the same standard, and we’re welcoming guests to this amazing island again😎❤️🌴

These are just a couple of before and after pics!
