About this property
Spectacular Bay View - Great for Bird Watching and Dolphin Spotting
POOL CLOSED. The pool is anticipated to be fixed and opened in September. Fitness center is closed indefinitely. Rates are adjusted to reflect the lack of these amenities.
Our condo is directly located on the bay where the Sarasota Bay and Anna Maria Sound meet. Sitting on the private balcony, you can watch nature unfold before you. The birds and fish are a constant. The dolphins and manatees are an exciting spot. The generous rooms provide enough space to make you feel comfortable when taking a break from the many available resort and island activities.
Our condo is just a short walk across the street from the beach. making it easy to plan a beach day or a stroll over to see the sunset. You will enjoy the largest saltwater pool on the island, a first-class tennis/pickleball court, and outdoor grills. One feature we love is the kayak launch. There is nothing as calming than kayaking (or paddle boarding) in the bay and listening to the sounds of nature. A dolphin may even come up and surprise you.
The master bedroom has a DreamCloud king bed. The second bedroom is a full bed and a twin rollaway bed (so you can move it if needed). There are two full bathrooms and a master closet. There is also a washer and dryer in the unit. All linens and towels (beach too) are provided. All traditional appliances are also included. Please plan to bring your own toiletries.
We allow one small dog under 25 pounds. This is an association rule and is strictly enforced. We have a 50 pound dog that we need to leave behind so we are as bummed about this rule as anyone. There is a $200 nonrefundable pet deposit.
It's hard to capture the splendor of nature’s beauty. The bay is full of life and It so peaceful to watch. Come and experience it for yourself.

About the host
Hosted by Kate Fricke

We fell in love with the Anna Mara/Longboat Key area and have vacationing with our three kids for over ten years.. We live in the Chicago area so the change of view is always refreshing. We also own a condo on Longboat Key.
I pride myself on being a great host. If you text me with issues, questions or for recommendations, I strive to do my best to help you and make sure you have a great stay. I am happy to help anyway I can.

Why they chose this property
We have a friend who owns at Runaway Bay and loved it. When this unit became available with its spectacular bay views, we couldn't turn it down. One of my favorite things to do is to watch for dolphins. On the gulf you may see one. On the bay it is pretty much guaranteed several times a day. Sitting on the balcony, you see so many birds and other wildlife. It's fascinating to watch. Another perk is we can launch our kayaks from the launch.
What makes this property unique
Anna Maria Island has a free trolley so you never need to drive your car. Our unit is only a ten minute walk to Bridge Street so it's easy to get to, but you don't get the noise and crowd if you stay too close. The beach is right across the street. Just a quick walk and you have beautiful sunsets. Besides a visit to Publix, you can get by without ever taking your car.
