I stayed at Marty's place for a week in January 2009 with my husband, our (almost) 3-year-old son and my mother. We loved it and will definitely consider a return trip next year. The location is great and most amenities (beach, park, stores, restaurants) are within walking distance. The free shuttle is a stone's throw away. Wireless access allowed us to do some last-minute research before choosing restaurants, etc. Very clean, and included some bonus provisions such as fishing rods and beach towels so that we could pack a bit lighter. We have been back for a week now and our son is still talking about "our Florida house".
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, age 55+, tourists without a car.
Thanks for sharing your home!

Couldnt not have found a better place to stay. Colorful, Comfortable, and Affordable. Very Convienient location with easy access to Resturants, Ice Cream Palor, and Fishing Pier. Within walking distance to a variety of stores and beach. I spent my time doing a few things since there were so many to do. Fishing outback on the canal dock with squid you can catch a variety of fish, I caught pin fish, pig fish, mullet, sea robins, Sheepshead, snakehead, a stingray, a puffer fish, and another fish that I had no idea what it was. I also did some fishing on City Pier located directly across the street from Briggs Diggs at the Bayou. There you can catch stingray, shark, spanish mackrel, sea trout, and snook. I have to admit I took full advantage of my time there. I also took the bikes out for a few rides and the time I spent on the beach was amazing. The ammenities were great. Everything you could need was there at your disposal in the condo such as beach towels, a cooler, boogie boards for the kids, and bikes. Not to mention the things most take for granted such as kitchen utensils etc.... We had the opportunity to see the Manatee's in the canal on numerous occassions which was really cool. I would defintely recommend this to anyone looking to spend a nice relaxing vaction on the island with or without children. Very Convienient, very comfortable, Ideal location, and an all around great place to stay.
Recommended for:Adventure seekers, families with young children, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers, tourists without a car.
The condo looks just like the picture with nice view of the canal from living and dining area.

We enjoyed our stay and will recommend this property to family and friends. The listing was accurate and the photo's reflected the appearance accurately. The unit was well equipped and clean. We enjoyed eating at the Sandbar, Two Scoops, City Pier and Jayne's. The fireworks show on the 4th was wonderful. The owner was helpful, when booking this property. We visit Anna Maria once a yr and would use this property again, if available.

we stayed in marty's place on anna maria island for a month. the condo is located on the north end of the island adjacent to tampa bay and has a canal and dock on the property. the condo is well equipped, very clean, and very comfortable. the location is convenient to many beaches, to the free trolley, and to many places to dine. the weather was not great (cool by florida standards) but we still enjoyed biking and walking along the beaches.
