Wonderful place on Anna Maria!

This property has it all! It is beautifully decorated and has two balconies and is conveniently located across from the beach on the bay within walking distance of downtown Bradenton Beach. The hosts have attended to every detail, including a wonderfully stocked kitchen, very detailed guide book and an assortment of beach supplies, including chairs and an umbrella.

Relaxing week in AMI

We really enjoyed our week at Bay Watch Condos in AMI! The heated pool was a huge hit with our daughters... never crowded, warm and clean. The condo was very comfortable and clean when we arrived. The proximity to the bay side and ocean was ideal. The condo was well equipped and perfect for our family of 4.
