Welcome to the Sea Horse unit at MI Happy Place Island Resort! Fresh and fun, this recently updated unit features the clean, modern aesthetic of our other resort units blended seamlessly into the Old Florida quaint architecture. Roll out of bed and lounge on the sunny secluded deck as you get ready for your day at the beach or the pool. This unit offers a full, wonderfully stocked kitchen, luxurious bath linens and super cozy beds. With a king, two twins, and a sleeper sofa with upgraded mattress, a great night’s sleep after your day on this perfect island is sure to beckon.

The MI Happy Place Island Resort (formerly Garden Villas) features new ownership and management with exciting amenities and upgrades that combine to make a beautiful, convenient, and relaxing location even better! The resort is perfectly located directly across from the Manatee Public Beach, just steps from the wonderfully clean white sands of Anna Maria Island.

MI Happy Place Island Resort includes a fabulous full size heated pool with a spacious 30 x 40 foot pool deck and a covered grilling area with a gas grill. It's a perfect spot to gather in the evenings after a lazy day at the beach. Every unit offers a variety of beach amenities as well – chairs, wagon, umbrella, and more.

The resort amenities will make your Anna Maria Island vacation relaxing and enjoyable for a quick trip or an extended stay. The lush, beautifully landscaped resort oasis is ideally located close to the beach, nearby eateries, and shopping. Walk to the Cafe on the Beach, Skinny’s Place, the West Coast Surf Shop, and more. The Island Centre Shopping area, also within walking distance, serves all of your shopping needs including groceries, eateries, and specialty shops. If you want to explore more, simply hop on and off the free trolley all day everyday - just across the street. Many Florida attractions, such as Busch Gardens, Mote Marine Lab and Disney World, are within easy driving distance.

For larger groups, this unit can be rented together with the others, so be sure to check out the other three: MI Happy Place Sand Castle, MI Happy Place Sea Horse, and MI Happy Place Sea Turtle.

For families, groups of friends, or events, the entire resort (MI Happy Place - All Units) is a fantastic option as well. There are a variety of ways to enjoy this amazing property, any of which will almost certainly have you looking forward to coming back again and again!

AMI in March 2024

Vacation Date: March 16, 2024

"We enjoyed our stay in the house. Pool was a nice feature with a nice setting including well kept plants and trees. Location was great allowing for easy access to the beach, restaurants, and groceries. Description of the house was accurate. House was clean. The tiki bar shown in the picture is not actually on the property but across Gulf Drive.

Perfect getaway for adults

Vacation Date: February 10, 2024

"My husband and I booked this getaway, last minute. It was everything we expected and more. Everything was very clean, owner responded promptly, pool area was nice. We enjoy walking and everything we needed was within walking distance. Restaurants, beach, church, grocery store, shopping, ice cream. We chose not to rent a car, and worked out well for us. The uber from Sarasota airport was about $40. I gave the location a 4 star, just because not much for a few when sitting outside the resort and the road to cross to get to the beach is busy.
I would come back!

Family Vacay

Vacation Date: July 15, 2023

"We rented three of the four cottages for a family of 9. The cottages and location were absolutely breath taking! A few steep to your right and you were on the beach, we you can play sand volleyball, enjoy a sunset, collect seashells (mornings are the best) or enjoy a pina colada at the Tiki Bar. A few steps to your left and you will find grocery store (reasonable priced), liquor store, Walgreens, and some cute store fronts. We took advantage of the free trolly at the beach and visited both end of the Island. Bridge Street, located on the bay side had great restaurants and variety of shops. We saw multiple dolphins on the pier. The house had everything we need and more, the beds were very comfortable and enough seating for a family gathering. We ate dinner outside and BBQ’s a few times during our stay. We didn’t need to rent any chairs or umbrella for the beach. We loaded up the wagon (was provided) with the cooler, chairs, umbrella, volleyball, and football and headed to the beach to enjoy the soft white sand. We enjoyed the pool daily! It was a nice spot to hang out together, play water games, sunbath, hang out in the hammocks, or play card games while enjoying the beautiful view. We hope to come back and fill the fourth house with more families members.

Cutest little cottage

Vacation Date: May 27, 2023

"Had another great stay. When we arrived our code didn’t work and it was after hours but I called and was given a new code right away. Easy peasy! Place felt very clean. Love the location and pool. Only complaint is it got hot when sleeping at night (but it is Florida ��‍♀️) and the ceiling fan in the bedroom with 2 beds clicks making it hard for me to sleep. (Light sleeper here) Luckily only slept in there a few nights when my 4 year old wanted me to- didn’t seem to effect her sleep any. Loved being a short walk to Publix- very convenient. Also all the beach items provided were a huge help! Never could’ve carried all our stuff and a baby without the wagon! Would stay again :)

Excellent Location

Vacation Date: December 24, 2022

"We had a wonderful family vacation during the Christmas season at MI Happy Place. While I have been to Florida many time, this was the first to AMI and we will definitely be back. MI Happy Place was perfect for your family getaway. Excellent location on the Island.

I would recommend some general maintenance. The air conditioner ran extremely loud. Not sure if this is due to the age of the air conditioner or if it just need some up keep. I would also say that our Sea Horse units kitchen cabinets are showing age. Some of the doors didn't close all the way and its just time for a refresh/update. Our family rented 3 of the 4 units and between us a few of the beach umbrellas were broken and unusable and the beach chairs are very rusty. I would recommend investing in new umbrellas and chairs yearly.

Overall this is an excellent property and we will be back.

3 week vacation

Vacation Date: January 22, 2022

"We stayed in the Sea Horse @ MI Happy Place for our 1st week, then had to move to the Sand Castle for our next two weeks. This place is awesome and so conveniently located to all stores needed and the best part is the beach is right across the street. The pool was kept very clean and is heated at a comfortable temp. Each unit is furnished with everything you need, included beach wagons, toys, chairs & umbrellas. We had many cool days & nights and it was nice to have cozy blankets to snuggle up with. Someday we hope to return to Mi Happy Place.

"We had a girls' week-end at MI Happy Place and this place was private, well-maintained, and close to everything. We loved that we could walk to the beach, grocery store, and restaurants and that it is near a trolley stop. It was fantastic having our own pool, outdoor eating areas, and even a hammock!

"We had an absolutely wonderful time staying in the seahorse! It had everything we needed and was a perfect location! It was clean, the beds were comfortable, the kitchen stocked perfectly! Could not have asked for a better set up! We look forward to returning and will consider bringing our extended family and renting all four units.

I’m missing the palm trees

Vacation Date: February 6, 2019

"Just got back from staying in Sea Horse and loved everything about it. We had all the comforts of home in a tropical paradise setting. It is conveniently located with Holmes Beach just across the street and any necessary shopping within walking distance. The beach decor was inviting and I really wish I could have taken the bed home with me! Everything was freshly painted and the grounds and pool got regular attention. Ice storm today - I'm missing the palm trees.

"We just got back form spending five days in AMI at Mi Happy Place - Sand Castle and it was perfect! The king size bed was very comfortable and we slept so good. We had all new dishes in the kitchen and had everything that we needed to cook meals in. We had everything we needed for the beach - beach wagon, beach towels, and beach chairs. We were literally across the street from the Gulf of Mexico and the white beach of AMI. The pool and pool deck were clean and inviting. We walked to Skinny's a few times for amazing burgers and then would walk to the beach for sunset. was so easy to work with. Would recommend and we will definitely be going back!

Off Season stay was fantastic!

Vacation Date: December 18, 2018

"We stayed here during what people think is the “off season”, and quickly realized that we’d be back! The weather was fantastic, the crowds were non-existent, and the resort was fantastic. Nicely updated place at a fantastic price point. Very convenient to restaurants (recommend Skinny’s across the street), right by the beach, nice big pool, comfortable beds, and more! We’ll definitely be the back!!
