Welcome to Bay Happy, a quick walk across the street from enjoying Tampa Bay’s sandy beaches at Playa Anna Maria. Views abound at this beautiful three-level home with balconies lining the upper levels on both the bay and inland sides. Take a dip in the private pool and spa or take a short walk to the Anna Maria City Pier for fishing and local shopping. This updated home will make you and your guests feel at ease with the generous indoor and outdoor spaces and proximity to the many things that make Anna Maria Island your unique vacation destination.

Bay Happy is a four-bedroom and three-bathroom vacation home. The main level features an open floor plan to help your guests catch up and get comfortable with ease. The updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, ample space for meal and snack preparation, and counter seating for four. The adjacent dining tables seat six guests for a more formal meal. The inviting living room supplies ample space to relax, watch a movie on the large screen television, catch up, or enjoy a board game. Step out on the balcony for beach and bay views from the oversized seats or have breakfast for six at the table.

The spacious primary bedroom has a seating area where you can re-energize, an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower and large soaking tub, and balcony seating for quiet reflection or morning coffee. The second bedroom’s nautical theme will have you dreaming of the waves or enjoying the balcony views. The third generous bedroom provides indoor seating and a balcony with bay views to delight your senses from the bistro table. Clean up and refresh in the ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower. The fourth bedroom has plenty of space to relax and unwind whether enjoying the balcony overlooking the pool or cleaning up in the third bathroom with a walk-in shower. The third bathroom can be accessed from the fourth bedroom and hallway. Your guests will rest and rejuvenate with all the comfort one expects at Anna Maria Island.

Relax in the private pool and spa featuring a beach entry and a built-in bistro table, both with shady umbrellas to let you enjoy the island lifestyle with luxurious resort-like amenities. Dry off on one of four cushioned lounge chairs or read in one of the several patio chairs. Enjoy refreshments at the patio table and serve some fresh catch on the barbeque grill. Take an easy bike ride to explore local cuisine, boutiques, and a general store for last-minute supplies. Stroll down to Bean Point to catch the best sunsets, dine under the stars at the Sandbar, or hop on the free trolley to explore the rest of the island's hidden gems. Relax and rejuvenate with island vibes here at Bay Happy!

Nice rental
Thank you for letting us stay at your property. We had a wonderful two weeks and would stay again. The view of the water is really nice. It was loud though with non-stop construction (no fault of the rental owners!) and groundskeeping at the park across the street. As mentioned in prior review, initial code provided to us didn’t work. Fortunately agency responded quickly and provided a different access code. The unit is decorated nicely. I wouldn’t say it’s a warm/inviting place, but the decor is nicely done. There were a lot of missing essential items (spatulas, oven mitts, small plates, sufficient spoons, and more), but 5 stars to rental agency which brought us all new items on a Sunday!! The bedrooms, baths, beds were all great! No hooks to hang towels in some bathrooms. Areas where a few things still needed from recent remodeling - like the final walkthrough and/or fixes haven’t been done. Biggest issue why we didn’t give it 5 stars is that we never had a functioning clothes washer, and we were there for 2 weeks! The agency’s repair person came and tried and needed to have someone come from vendor. That never happened. I asked the company to pick up our clothes to wash but they didn’t respond. I hope they have it fixed for future renters. Overall a nice place.

AMI Newbies
Bay Happy was a wonderful home base for our first visit to AMI. Fantastic, proactive communication from AMI Locals. Alerted before our stay that there would be a required city inspection of the house our first morning. Also checked in with us when homeowner's contractor needed to deliver supplies to garage. Checked in to be sure we'd arrived and all was well. The first door code didnt work, but was resolved within minutes via phone call. Clear and thorough check out instructions. The home is tastefully decorated, clean, and comfortable. Exactly as shown in pictures. All beds were declared to be "very comfortable." Back yard is private, pool temp pleasant. Easy walks to Pine, the piers, Bean Point; our group enjoys walking 2-3 miles at a time, several times a day. Short drives to other beaches, e.g., Manatee and Coquina. Only a park across the street between home and the Bay. Balconies/decks are great for group visiting, or solitude. Quiet neighborhood, not much traffic. Customer service top notch at shops and restaurants. Minor suggestions would be to add hangers if possible...only the main bedroom had hangers which we divied up to other closets. And, several of us wished for a full length mirror. We enjoyed this home and would not hesitate to book again. Overall great experience.

Great setting but house needs a lot of attention
The location of the house was great! Unfortunately it is in a state of really poor repairs that are unfinished and honestly should be corrected ASAP. The listing should state the true condition of the house. Also when we arrived there were bottles, cans and broken glass around the pool in the landscaping. There was very little beach gear etc. which normally we have had better equipment in all of our previous rentals. This house can really be nice and probably was at one time. I would not stay here again and we were all really disappointed. We stay in the area several times a year through VRBO and this is the first time we have had this happen.

Hurricane idal
I would love to say I enjoyed my stay but unfortunately due to hurricane Idal that was not the case. The house and area was beautiful and check in was easy, however, we weren’t even there for 24 hrs before mandatory evacuation. I did not buy the insurance since I booked this in January and did not think about a hurricane. So whatever you do BUY the insurance not matter what. I was hoping since it was a MANDATORY evacuation that AMI would work with us maybe book us for next year or give us 50% off for next year but they will NOT work with you and will only say you should have bought the insurance. So please be aware if you book with AMI
