Coastal Calm Steps from the Beach

VRC22-000022

Hidden just feet from the Gulf of Mexico’s powder-soft sands, Made in the Shade B offers everything you need for a serene island retreat. Whether you're a couple seeking a romantic escape, a solo traveler on sabbatical, or a small family (furry members included!), this one-bedroom duplex is your gateway to simplicity, sun, and salty breezes on Anna Maria Island.

Cozy Comfort for Couples & Solo Guests

Inside, the space feels like a quiet exhale—clean, bright, and thoughtfully updated with stylish touches and a king-size bed. Step onto your private patio with morning coffee in hand, or savor a sunset cocktail after grilling dinner. It’s the kind of place that makes time slow down—in the best way.

“Lovely place on a quiet street… beach access right across the street. Beautiful sunsets.” – Cynthia J., Feb 2024

Great for Digital Nomads & Extended Stays

Work remotely with high-speed Wi-Fi, cook at home in the full kitchen, and enjoy laundry access on-site. With shops, grocery stores, and the island trolley just blocks away, every detail is designed to make your long stay feel effortless.
