Grab your beach towels and chairs and walk one block to one of our favorite beach accesses on the island. The sandy trail is lined with lush foliage and feels like your secret escape that opens to the white sandy beach, where you can often spot the dolphins jumping in the mornings. Rent a bike to explore the island’s hidden gems and watering holes. Spend a leisurely afternoon shopping on Pine Avenue or Bridge Street. There is so much to see and do when you vacation on Anna Maria Island, so start planning today!

Perfect beach house
We absolutely loved this house. The backyard was a tropical paradise with a heated pool. The beach is a short walk and the sand is soft.

Exceeded all expectations
Walking on sunshine was truly walking on sunshine! We had a week of perfect weather and the home exceeded every expectation! The house was exactly as it appeared, a beautifully decorated open space. The pool was pristine! The backyard was truly a private oasis! And the beach was the exact distance stated! So often this is not the case. The home was also in a very central location. We have rented many Vrbos in various locations. Hands down this was our favorite! The management company was truly the best we’ve ever dealt with. The only suggestion for improvement would be the alarm to the pool. Totally appreciate for child safety but would be awesome if could bypass if just adults staying there.

Great location and quaint backyard
We loved the location…close to the beach! Not as clean when we arrived. Floor was dirty and there was no broom for inside or for patio (just a small one with dustpan.) We cleaned our front door windows and patio windows to see out better. We are charged a cleaning fee so thought it should have been cleaner. We felt like the humidity was not taken care of with the AC…mold issues on vents/front door and furniture felt slightly damp. (Owners might want to address so no major problems in future) Beach chairs outside were rusted and dirty so we could not take them to beach. We called maintenance for smoke alarm battery needing changed and low shower pressure, both were taken care of promptly. The patio alarm to disable every single time going in and out was annoying…I understand the safety aspect but we were all adults and wish there was a way to turn off during our stay. So many positives though!!! Location to the beach is great! We rented bikes and could ride safely off of the main road. Loved the updated decor, bathrooms, kitchen, etc. it was super cute beach decor! The pool was great and we used the available grill…The backyard is a little oasis that we enjoyed! Nice to have the washer and dryer and available beach towels! The property manager responded quickly to any questions or issues we had. Overall, we enjoyed our stay here!!!

Lives up to its name
Very clean, well located, recently updated property. Comfortable beds, perfect private resort like backyard with nice size pool. Pool heating worked great even on the two <50 degree days. Perfect spot for a family. Only recommendations are minor- more kitchen ware, oven mitts, bbq grill needs to be cleaned and ignition repaired
