we loved the property, being right on the ocean is very nice. everything was clean and not overly furnished. The only thing I would have changed would be the beach chairs. It would have been nice to have lounge chairs instead of lawn chairs.

Absolutely beautiful property with everything you could possibly need. It’s in the perfect location, directly on the beach and right by shops and restaurants. We loved sitting on the balcony watching the dolphins. It was so lovely to be able to step from the balcony and straight on to the beach. If we are lucky enough to return to Anna Maria then we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

This was a great place to stay. Right on the beach, easy walking distance to various restaurants. Thoroughly enjoyed it. My only suggestion is to provide a list prior to check in regarding supplies provided. That will enable guests to come fully equipped if they choose not to leave once they arrive. Would definitely come back!

Perfect spot on the beach

Sandra was a great host. She always answered our questions so quickly. She has fixed her place up so much after the hurricane damage. It was so clean and comfy. We loved being able to open the patio door and walk right out on the beach. There were so many shops and restaurants within walking distance. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect location

This is our second Christmas staying here and you cannot beat the location. The views, the beach, the walk to bridge street are all amazing. Having four chairs to sit outside would be nice, there is only a patio set for two, but aside from that it’s wonderful. There are two beach chairs and they added grills this year which was wonderful. If you are looking for views, the beach, and location, this place is it.

Annie Marie Island vacation

We had an awesome time. The condo was just as described, if not better. Everything was great! The location couldn't have been any better. You are literally within walking distance to several bars and restaurants. While we were there, we met a great family from Georgia who was staying next door. I would highly recommend staying here. We are planning on coming back. Thanks for helping have a wonderful vacation!

Place needs updating

Everything is old. The furniture, the sheets, towels, porch furniture, cooking utensils. Toilet in primary bedroom was ridiculous. The only positive thing about the place is the location ‼️‼️‼️

We bought this wonderful condo in the spring of 2001. I am college professor and my current husband is a medical doctor. We live l in NYC and we enjoy our beach cottage retreat as much as possible. We welcome you to make yourself at home, relaxing while watching the dolphins play and enjoying the beautiful sunsets.!!!

Why they chose this property

Anna Maria Island is unique in Florida in that the restriction on the building of high rises makes it a well preserved beach front community. The beauty of this location is both the private beach access and the proximity to the shops and restaurants on historic Bridge Street. In addition, the free trolley gives you access to all of Anna Maria Island with a stop just outside the door!

What makes this property unique

First and foremost is the spectacular view from the living room and kitchen and the magnificent sunsets! The off street parking for two guest vehicles is a plus.
