Relax on the lanai, sip your morning coffee or freshly squeezed citrus juice. The sea breeze is scented with jasmine and frangipani. Fresh air and the sounds of the surf will lower your blood pressure and make you glad to be alive!
Anna Maria Island Coquina Tropics is a second-floor, 2br/2ba condo in the seashell-pink Coquina Moorings development, which takes its namesake from Florida’s Coquina saltwater clams, noted for their brilliantly colored and patterned shells. Coquina shells are often described as exquisite, butterfly-shaped “beach gems.”
This condo development, with an ideal location at the narrow, southern end of the island, is indeed a beach gem, offering amenities, access to water recreation, scenic panoramas of Sarasota Bay, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Intracoastal Waterways, as well and some of the most vibrant, enchanting sunset and sunrise views on the Island! There are tranquil water views in every direction. Watch dolphins swim in the turquoise gulf, as fuschia, violet, and golden hues paint the sky.
The best amenity of this condo is beautiful Coquina Beach, which is directly across the street. (Literally twenty steps to feel warm sand on your toes!) Coquina Beach has gorgeous, sugar-fine, white sand beside the Caribbean blue Gulf of Mexico. The beach has picnic tables, a concession stand, and a walking trail shaded by mature Australian pines.
Additional condo complex amenities include a heated swimming pool overlooking the bay, a poolside grill, picnic area, grassy common spaces, as well as bayside boat dock for fishing and boating enthusiasts. The condo complex has beautiful, mature tropical landscaping, fragrant flowers, and palm trees.
This freshly updated, sparkling clean, 2br/2ba condo has tile floors, coastal decor in hues of blue and white, luxury appliances, a new designer kitchen, formal dining, laundry, WiFi, and sleeps 6 with a King in the primary suite and two queens in the guest bedroom. Balconies and a large, screened-in lanai off the living room add space and plenty of natural light.
This condo is close to Coquina Baywalk at Leffis Key, a pristine nature preserve with a hilly vantage point for a breathtaking 360-degree view of Sarasota Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. Charming shops and dining at the recently renovated Bradenton City Pier are all just a short distance away.
More cosmopolitan lifestyle options are available with a short drive to the mainland via Cortez Road. Shopping, fine dining, and nightlife venues, as well several golf courses can be found in this direction. All of these local amenities are conveniently accessible via the island’s free trolley service which has stops near Coquina Moorings.

There’s a lush yard/common area, poolside patio with palms, fragrant flowers, tropical landscaping, a heated swimming pool, poolside grille, and picnic area. Relax poolside after a hot day at the beach. Grill fresh-caught seafood, steaks, or portabellas! Add tropical flavor with grilled pineapple, a dash of mango or citrus, or homemade guacamole. Serve a gourmet meal alfresco while kids splash in the pool and adults savor the sunset.

Neighborhood:
The combination of a tropical setting, beach location, luxurious amenities plus cosmopolitan convenience is the essence of this home. Park your car and explore the small, charming, historic island by foot, bicycle, golf cart, or trolley. Walk to restaurants, cafes, boutiques, and grocery markets. Nearby are boat rentals, and sunset cruises, as well as jet ski, bike, paddleboard, scooter, and kayak rentals.
There is plenty to do here. The restaurants are great! Want to explore the Island? Everything on the Island is accessible via the free air-conditioned trolley running every twenty minutes, or by free jitney services. Historic Bridge Street, with its restaurants, bars and grilles, live music, shops, and historic pier, is a 20-minute walk from the home. Don't want to drive on a night out on the town? Free jitney services will take you to and fro day or night. They work for tips. For those who want to fish.
Anna Maria Island is known as one of the best fishing locations in Florida. There are fishing piers and party fishing boats down the street. Serious about catching fish? Consider chartering a private fishing boat from one of the Island’s licensed captains (it is often said they know where the fish are!).
Like to shop? World-famous St. Armand's Circle and Sarasota are minutes away. Prime Outlets (130 designer and brand-name outlet stores) is nearby, but not too close to threaten your vacation budget! Have kids, or just want to act like one? Busch Gardens in Tampa is about an hour away, and Disney World is a 2-hour ride door-to-door.
