About this property

Anna's Cottage · Dog-Friendly · Gulf & Bridge St

3BR · 2BA · Sleeps 6 · Dog-Friendly · Fenced Yard · Across from Gulf · 1 Block to Bridge Street · Screened Porch · Fire Pit · Outdoor Shower · Gas Grill · Quartz Kitchen · Rain Showers

Across the street from the Gulf, one block from Bridge Street, and the yard is fenced for your dog. Anna's Cottage is the rare Bradenton Beach find that puts you in the middle of everything without making you feel like it.

A Bradenton Beach vacation rental tucked behind a charming white fence and shaded by swaying palms, this bright teal home blends the soul of Old Florida with completely renovated modern comforts.

Step inside to find an open, light-filled living area with white shiplap walls and ceiling. The kitchen has been transformed with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar with seating for four — ideal for morning coffee or an evening cocktail. All three bedrooms feature queen beds dressed in fresh white linens, ceiling fans, and wall-mounted flat-screen TVs. The primary bedroom has its own en-suite bath with a rain shower and marble-look vanity. A second full bathroom with rain shower serves the other two bedrooms.

The backyard is where Anna's Cottage earns its name. Step through the screened porch — dining table for six, lounge seating, shaded and private — and into the fenced yard beyond. Adirondack chairs ring a stone fire pit beneath palm trees and tropical plantings. A gas BBQ grill and outdoor shower complete the picture. Your dog has room to run. After a long beach day, you won't want to leave.

The beach is across the street. Bridge Street's restaurants, coffee shops, ice cream, mini-golf, and boutiques are one block away. The historic Bradenton Beach Pier is two blocks down. The free island trolley stops nearby — explore the full length of AMI without moving your car once you've parked.

Anna's Cottage requires a one-week minimum stay. Pet-friendly with a fenced yard.

House was in a great location. While the house was a bit smaller than expected it was more than fine for 3 adults. The bedrooms were very good and each had a tv set. We really enjoyed the screened in back porch.

Anna's Cottage was wonderful! The hosts were very helpful with any questions I had, sent a welcome letter with information and made the check in process easy! The cottage was in a wonderful location, just across the street from the beach and a block from Bridge Street. It is a very clean well-kept cottage, nice backyard, screened in patio with all the amenities (including beach chairs, beach umbrella and beach toys) we needed. Loved it!

Awesome location, close to beach and restaurants/bars.

Nice property, loved the screened in back porch. Plenty of chairs, umbrellas, and a beach wagon available for beach time. We go to bradenton beach every year, this property is now our favorite.

This was a wonderful week long stay, perfect property for three couples. Location was perfect for us, maybe 50 yards from the restaurants, bars, and shopping that Bridge St offers, and about the same distance from the beach. Speaking of the beach, there is a small shed in the back containing beach chairs, a cooler, and even a wagon for bringing your stuff to the beach. The kitchen was modern with everything you'd need if you wanted to cook your own meals. Access to a washer/dryer was a plus. We had smokers in our group, so the screened in porch got a lot of use. We didn't use the cute gas fire pit area in the back, but we did use the deck area adjacent to the screened in porch. All in all, we heartily recommend this property.

Family Beach Week

This house was perfect for our family! It accommodated us well, was literally steps from the beach, the updated backyard was a highlight our of kids and we enjoyed having the restaurants and shops a beach road over. It was such a convenient location for watching the sunrise from the pier to the sunset over the Gulf!

Short stay

Pleased with the cottage, though we did not spend much time there. Small issue with one of the bathrooms that we reported, and requested that the repairs were completed after our stay. Property management was very responsive.

Wonderful beachhouse

Have been coming to AMI since 1959. Spent every summer at Atlantic Beach with my family. Stayed at Annas Cottage with my spouse , brother and his wife. Love it. Only thing missing was a full length mirror to check outfits.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time at Anna’s Cottage. The short walk across the street to the beach was perfect! Being able to walk to dinner was great too! This adorable house in such a great location. The beds were comfy and it was perfect for the three of us on our girls trip! At first, we weren’t sure about it being right beside a convenience store, but we actually loved it. They were super helpful and nice there and make great sandwiches! We enjoyed sitting out on the deck by the gas fireplace. There rental company was very quick to respond when I told them the gas was empty for it. They were out the next day to fill it up. We would definitely come again and stay here.
