About this property
Cute & cozy getaway at north end of Anna Maria Island. 5-min walk to the beach!
Located at the quiet North end of Anna Maria Island, this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath villa is a short walk to beautiful white sand beaches at Bean Point where you can watch the dolphins play. Visit a variety of shops and restaurants along Pine Avenue in downtown Anna Maria less than a mile from the villa. Enjoy the Gulf breezes from the screened lanai or patio area. New furnishings throughout. The bedrooms have a King bed and 2 twin beds. Amenities include free wireless internet, cable TV, Roku, telephone, washer/dryer, dishwasher, microwave, gas grill, Mr. Coffee, and Keurig. Beach gear includes chairs, towels, beach wagon, umbrellas, and cooler. Occupancy limited to 4 persons, including children.
We offer flexible check-ins and check-outs throughout the year, which makes it easier for you to book flights and get the best prices on your flights. We're close to 3 airports: Tampa International (56 mi./90 min drive), Sarasota International (20 mi/45 min drive), and St. Petersburg/Clearwater International (47 mi/75 min drive).
See our adjoining property "Gladiolus Hideaway" HomeAway listing #4625973.
1. The unit is "turn-key" furnished. Towels & bed linens are included.
2. A beach wagon to haul your gear to the beach is provided. Umbrellas, folding chairs, beach towels, and beach toys too.
3. Enjoy outdoor cooking on the gas grill.
4. Relax or dine on the screened porch with table and chairs or on the patio under the umbrella.
5. Master bedroom has a King size bed & the second bedroom has 2 twins.
6. Bathroom has tub and shower.
7. There's also an outdoor shower spout for rinsing off after the beach.
8. The landline phone provides free local and long distance calling within the US and Canada.
9. Free high speed wireless internet.
10. Smart TVs located in the living room and master bedroom. Bring your Netflix or Amazon log-in information and stream all your favorite shows!
11. Games, books and puzzles for rainy days.
12. Sectional sofa and recliner make the living room a comfortable spot for reading or watching TV.
13. Ceiling fans in living room and both bedrooms.
14. Laundry room is complete with full size washer & dryer. Iron and ironing board provided.
15. We provide limited "starter supplies" including soap, a roll of toilet paper and a roll of paper towels. We keep a variety of cleaning supplies on hand, but we can't guarantee that these supplies will be replaced between guests. We do our best!
16. The kitchen is fully equipped with dishes, pots & pans, utensils, microwave, Mr. Coffee 8-cup drip coffee maker, Keurig coffee maker, and dishwasher.
17. Park right in front of the cottage. Room for 2 vehicles (no RVs, trailers, or boats).
18. This property is a duplex with "back-to-back" entrances, not "side-by-side". You have your own private parking area, patio, and entrance.
19. We are located 6 houses from the beach access point at the north end of Gladiolus St. From there it's a short walk down a path between two homes to the beach. In recent years there has been an accretion of sand at Bean Point, so it's another short walk from the end of the path down to the water. All in all, about 5 minutes. A second beach access point at the end of N. Bay Blvd. (one street over) takes you over a wooden walkway right to the beach on the bay side of Bean Point.
20. We have a Property Manager on call in case of emergencies or maintenance problems. There is no charge to you for this extra peace of mind!
21. We use a cleaning service between guests and they do a great job. If you would like to hire them during your stay, please contact us or the Property Manager.
Flexible Check-in and checkout days --with some exceptions for holidays and certain times of the year—and never on Sundays.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Cindy Miller

We grew up in Maryland, went to high school together and have been married since college. We've lived in Florida for 30 years. We are now retired and enjoy traveling in our RV with our kitty!
Why they chose this property
We bought the property in 1991. It was our first Florida home! We lived in the front "A" side of the duplex while renting the back "B" side to an annual tenant. We moved to the Tampa Bay area for work-related reasons, but kept the property so we could continue visiting the Island and renting to others. We've now converted both sides to vacation rental units. We take pride in our property and aim to provide our guests with everything they need for a comfortable and memorable stay!
What makes this property unique
Our place is a short walk to the beach at the beautiful north end of Anna Maria Island. You will enjoy strolls on the beach, dips in the Gulf and gorgeous sunsets! We also love walking out to the Rod N' Reel pier for breakfast or lunch. We know you will fall in love with Anna Maria just as we did!
