About this property

Our Blue Heaven boasts one of the LARGEST PRIVATE POOLS on AMI!

Our Blue Heaven (OBH) is located on a corner lot in a quiet, residential neighborhood a short, straight block's walk to the white sand beaches. Guests young and old love the private, fenced-in backyard and covered back porch. Sit and relax rain or shine with a view of one of the largest private pools on the island. The pool has a brand-new electric heater/cooler to ensure that the temperature is perfect for you and your family no matter the season.

Our family purchased OBH from the family who originally built it in 1966 with whom we have remained friends. The home is newly restored and comfortable for guests of all ages. We are confident that you will find all the comforts of a home away from home and are proud to have many repeat guests with whom we have established very friendly relationships. We hope to host you soon and are always available to answer any questions that you might have.

About the host

Host profile image
Our families have been coming to Anna Maria Island since before the mainland bridges were constructed, coming onto the island by way of ferry! Needless to say, we are very attached and proud of our little island. We live in Tampa with our two children and look forward to time spent on AMI during the summer months.

Why they chose this property

Only a short, direct walk to the beautiful, pristine beaches of AnnaMaria Island, this home is centrally located, in a family friendly neighborhood with all of the conveniences of home. Three spacious bedrooms, two with queen size mattresses, the third with two double beds. Big closets, and plenty of drawers to fit comfortably for your stay. Two bathrooms are recently renovated. The master has a beautiful, tiled shower stall, the common bath, also renovated has a tub that's perfect for adults or children.

The kitchen is full of bright, natural light, with a big beautiful picture window We love to cook, so you should be able to find everything you need in this kitchen! The cozy family room is also full of natural light, looking into the large, covered porch in the center of the house. There is a full washer and drier adjacent to the kitchen.

We have a brand new, large, rectangular sized, heated pool. It also boasts a wide sundeck, perfect for setting a chair in and dipping your toes in the warm water while enjoying a book or a fruity drink!

The large, fenced yard can also be enjoyed from the cozy, covered porch which is accessible from the master and twin bedrooms as well as from the sliding glass doors of the common areas of the house. This is a great feature for cool, breezy beach days, as the doors tuck away and create a huge outdoor area to be enjoyed by the entire family!

What makes this property unique

It is our pleasure to offer a discount to our servicemen and women! Don't forget to ask!
Our home is a classic example of a typical old Florida home; a single-story concrete block home with Spanish tile, and terrazzo floors throughout. It sits on 2 lots, which leaves us with a great size yard both in the front and in the back of the house. We have proudly brought it beautifully up to date, but have decided to keep its original charm intact.
