Looking for that place to kick back and relax your cares away? See the rave review from the NY Times about Anna Maria* and then check out ‘Our Place by the Sea.’
Return to the time of “the fine art of doing nothing” as another NY writer describes the quiet north end of Anna Maria Island. Several years ago we discovered the island’s simple pleasures, beautiful beaches and wonderful homes. In all our travels around the world, it was Anna Maria where we kept returning. Nothing quite compares to the sugary white sand, the ease of access to beaches, the wonderful wildlife and ease of walking and biking. And sunsets, incredible sunsets!
We want you to experience the same vacation that we have come to enjoy throughout the years.
“Our Place by the Sea”, with 2,000 sf, is a three minute walk to the beach on the cherished North End of Anna Maria. We’re also a five minute walk to the Rod and Reel Pier pictured in the NY Times article and a beautiful 15 minute beach walk to the Sandbar Restaurant as the article describes. Picture a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home of casual, upscale elegance. French doors from the sunroom open onto a fantastic new patio and beautiful heated pool. Listen to the gentle sounds of the pool’s waterfall surrounded by tropical landscape and outside dining. Imagine granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and extra seating at a kitchen bar countertop.
The kitchen is central to three living areas and the dining room giving family members and guests great flexibility and freedom to be part of the group or to enjoy their own choice of activity. Each bedroom, has its own private bath (half bath in twin bedroom), and new flat screen HDTVs to enjoy during that time off inside. Better yet, enjoy movie time on the large flat screens in two of the living areas. The house has wi-fi, washer-dryer, cable television and all the conveniences of home. The house is completely redone and brand new to the rental market.
Pull a wagon to the beach. It’s just a three-minute walk to the Seagrape entrance at beautiful Bean Pointe where you will enjoy one of the world’s most beautiful white sand beaches. Watch the dolphins playfully swim or boats sail by.
Hop on your bikes for lunch at Ginny’s and Jane E’s. Enjoy their great BLT’s, cappuccino and sumptuous baked goods. Kids want to try fishing? Walk over to Rod & Reel Pier and when you grow a little hungry again, don’t forget to try their great island grouper sandwich. Catch a bite of dinner at the Sandbar, the Beach Bistro, the Waterfront, or any one of the fine restaurants on the north end and return to the beach with your chairs to catch the beautiful sunsets that take your breath away. We’re also not far from historic Pine Avenue where you can rent bikes, additional beach equipment, safe and unsinkable kayaks plus beach and baby equipment.
You will love Anna Maria Island and “Our Place by the Sea” is the perfect spot to remember what going to the beach is all about! Located on quiet Jacaranda Rd. We invite you to come, relax in the casual elegance and make Our Place, Your Place!

In all our travels around the world in seeking the best beach vacation spots, it was Anna Maria where we kept returning. Nothing could quite compare to the sugary white sand, the ease of access to beaches, the wonderful wildlife and ease of walking and biking. And sunsets, incredible sunsets!
