About this property

Steps to the Beach Island Paradise

Come enjoy the tranquility of one of the oldest, most charming villages of Florida. There are so many things to do here, first and foremost; RELAX and enjoy the warm gulf breezes. Once you have become rejuvenated you are ready to enjoy all that Anna Maria and it's surrounding areas have to offer.

There is great Golf, Para-Sailing, Jet-skiing, even up close encounters with crocodiles at the Sarasota Jungle Gardens. There are also many area museums, galleries, gardens and aquariums ie. Ringling Museum complex and the Village of the Arts in Bradenton.

There is also great shopping; Historic Bridge Street and the North end offer an eclectic blend of the old and new, St. Armands Circle just minutes away is the Rodeo Drive of Southwest Florida, with high-end boutiques and upscale shops and dining.

We also have a unit upstairs very similar to this one Sun Isle # 3. VRBO/1193315

*** In the case of inclement weather or some other emergency you can reschedule your vacation at another time or I will give you a complete refund.. If our condos are not available for your desirable dates are if you require additional space. We can provide contact information for unit 4 at Sunisle.

Beautiful beach

We absolutely loved our stay on Anna Maria Island. It was our first time here and we will be back! Beautiful beaches and friendly people. The beach was such an easy walk across the street and the pool was great to come back to in the evening! It had everything we needed for a perfect relaxing beach vacation!

Really is just steps from the beach!

We loved our stay at this property. It was clean and boasted a patio and pool area that made being outside so very comfortable. The location is literally across the street from the beach entrance. The kitchen was fully functional, we did have a moment of hesitation as we didn't realize the microwave was also a convection oven. We thought the oven was MIA for a hot moment! LOL. There is a stop for the free island trolly very close; so you can explore much of the island without needing to drive/find parking.Will stay here again should we have the opportunity to visit AMI.

Beach Vacation

This property is very clean and quiet. Very easy to get to with beach access directly across the street and Publix a few blocks away. Many shopping stops along the island with easy transportation via the free Trolly or the Monkey Bus, just tip them. We had no trouble with the facility and were able to make new friends. We loved going to the beach every day, but the pool was nice as well. We wanted a low key, relaxing vacation and that is exactly what we enjoyed. I would recommend this facility for any small group. We hope to be back! Thank you for a great stay.

Very family Friendly

The pool was awesome we also like the way it was shaped part was in the shade and part was in the sun and it was very private the only problem I’ve had was because my back is bad that the beds were too hard but others said they were OK would come back again next year maybe for a week instead of four days. I have a suggestion that it would be nice to have a pool broom to keep the leaves off from the pool area.

Relaxing paradise

The property is very clean and well maintained. We have stayed in this property three years in a row and we absolutely love it. Excellent access to the beach, great pool area and a gorgeous patio that is perfect for your morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. Conveniently located within minutes to anything you may need or want to do. The owner is very attentive and answers your question very fast! Highly recommended!!!

Girls trip

Loved the location. Loved the outdoor areas. Would just suggest a gas grill or list it as charcoal grill. Need a broom for all the sand. Stove eyes are in need of repair or a stove with oven. Possibly a bigger counter top oven for say pizza if no traditional oven. Only one roll of toilet paper for four people staying 4 days is not enough. Maybe more trash can liners. We had a wonderful trip and would love to come again to Bradenton Beach!

No title

Overall decor, location and property was VERY nice. Not the cleanest I have stayed in but I am type-A about that. Friends who stay with me know, no matter what, the first purchase is coffee and cleaning supplies! So I windexed the kitchen and living room outside windows, and cleaned the screens so we could enjoy the view. I also cleaned the legs and under the glass on the coffee and end tables, and the fridge door seal. But that’s just me. Did I mention I like things clean? 😂The screens are in poor repair, (multiple large holes) and windows needed to be propped open to enjoy the fresh air. But that would allow mosquitoes to enter, so we decided against having the windows open. My biggest concern was for bedbugs. Our guest using the king bed had multiple bites on awakening, and new bites each morning. Host assured me they were sand fleas, aka no-see-ums. I am not convinced. The season is wrong for no-see-ums and I have personally experienced bites from these creatures. In my experience they occur on the beach and you know when you have been bitten. This guest is particularly fastidious. She showered daily after the beach, and did not ever notice any irritation or bites occurring while on the beach, only on awakening. The hosts kindly offered us a deal if I rented again from them. We were not looking for a deal, or even a discount. We WERE looking for them to know we had a problem, and to address it, so no other guests had similar problems. I hope that happens.

This was the perfect place to stay for our Anna Maria Island vacation! The condo had everything we needed and the host Jo-El is amazing! We love the tropical patio for breakfast in the morning and after dinner drinks and the pool was perfect and private. Highly recommend this unit. We cannot wait to book our stay for next year!

This place is exactly as advertised.

Overall we had an excellent visit at this property. I did award 5 stars in all categories however, I would be remiss if I didn't point out a few things: The bed is extremely firm. The Owner requests the temperature to be no less than 75 when occupied and higher when unoccupied. The bathroom has no vents and gets quite steamy. The location is centrally located on the island and very close to the beach - ideal for kids. While not officially ADA Accessible, people with limited mobility not requiring a wheelchair will likely not encounter any significant problems. Towels were abundant. The kitchen was well-outfitted. WiFi is suitable for remote work. The pool is ideal for an evening drink and soak with friends. There is ample parking (Other units in the building were vacant, and there is street parking).

Comfortable Beach Beauty

Location perfect; accommodations very accommodating for 3 adults / 1 child; laundry and restroom at poolside very convenient; so close to the beach that one can almost touch it; easy parking for both tenants & visitors! Only thing I could think of that might make this place any easier would be to add a propane grill outside on the patio ( next to the charcoal one) but honestly who wants to cook on vacation when there is so many delicious “eats” on the island to try, not me! Thanks for a wonderful stay and the memory makers for a lifetime! We will be back! 😎🏝️🤩
