About this property

Silver Surf- A stunning family home 2 blocks from the beach.

The minute you walk in the front door at Silver Surf you'll be convinced that you're about to experience the very best of Old Florida island living in one of the finest homes on Anna Maria Island.

This beautiful home on 68th Street, decorated perfectly in understated island elegance, provides the ideal arrangement both for privacy and for the gathering of family and friends in a larger vacation home. One master suite with a private bath is tucked away for privacy on one side. Two bedrooms with baths share a separate split level with their own living space. Yet another section of Silver Surf, with two large bedrooms and an additional niche for twin-over-twin bunk beds for the younger members of your clan, completes the sleeping arrangements.

The open central living area offers the perfect venue for gathering after a day of boating or at the beach. Or, take advantage of the beautiful outdoor living area, wonderfully landscaped and perfectly furnished to provide complete privacy and island comfort by the side of the giant heated pool with a whirlpool spa. Express your culinary talents on the patio gas grill or in the stunning gourmet kitchen.

Luxury and convenience meet here, from top-of-the-line washer/dryer to flat-screen cable TV's in the bedrooms and WiFi connectivity throughout. Silver Surf is just a very short stroll from the most beautiful beach in the country; you'll remember those sunsets for a lifetime.

And when you're ready, hop on your bikes or take a stroll and explore this wonderful island. The best shopping, dining, sightseeing, and all that Anna Maria Island has to offer is just a short walk or ride from Silver Surf, your headquarters for the perfect vacation-a vacation you'll never forget.

Very close to the beach. Everything was as described, but for this dollar amount would have preferred (2) 3 bedrooms in same condo association on the beach. The savings would cover food for the week maybe. The beds were on wooden bases, with outshoots just right for shin height trauma at night, and seem a bit creeky soft. The pool was great for the kids.

Excellent communication. Beautiful property. Would stay again. Very well-appointed kitchen. Nice beds and showers. Lovely pool and spa area. It was nice there were games, puzzles, and books as well as some beach chairs etc. Comfy large areas for seating in living and dining areas. Recommended to hosts it would’ve been exceedingly helpful to have more than two kitchen towels in such a big house as well as large pump shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in the 4 bathrooms!

Wonderful family vacation

We had a group of 9 people (5 adults, 4 kids) and we had a wonderful time in the house. The whole house was clean and organized when we got there. All the adults had king beds which was a huge plus. The short walk to the beach was perfect! The pool kept us entertained throughout our stay as well. We will definitely be back for another vacation stay!

Great house- close to beach

Overall we loved the house. It provided the right amenities, beach chairs and canopy, and the house layout worked well for our blended family. We enjoyed the pool and cooking meals in the big kitchen! We could walk to the beach and just overall it was a great house. I did communicate with the property manager about a couple of issues and that process was easy.

Great Getaway Near Beach

We had a great family trip staying at the Silver Surf property. The house was spacious with 5 bedrooms so everyone could have their own place to stay. The pool and hot tub were wonderful and we used them everyday. Having an entrance to the beach just a short walk down the street was also a plus. We had a wonderful family trip staying here. Communication with the management team was very easy and they responded quickly whenever I had a question.

Beautiful and terrific home which we enjoyed thoroughly. One thing we would suggest is having the pool cleaned more than once a week due to droppings of the over hanging palms. Overall, we had a wonderful time and wouldn’t hesitate to return in the future.

We loved our stay here. The house was beautiful and very clean. There was plenty of space for our group of 10 (three separate families). This property is in a very peaceful neighborhood and the beach was only 2 short blocks away. The check-in/check-out process was simple and great communication with the managers on any questions.

A bit too much pool shade

The house and location were great! The only downside was that the landscaping around the pool has grown a lot since the photo of the pool and we had no sun on the pool at all. Other than that a great family trip!!

What a house!

I loved this house! We spent the weekend with my family here and couldn't be happier! The place is only a 2-minute walk to the beach, spacious enough for a family to sleep comfortably, and the pool and grill add a magnificent touch to this property! Communication with the property owner was great too. A/C had broken down when we arrived and they fixed it within the hour of letting them know of the issue. I will definitely stay here again if we visit AMI again!
