Family Tides – AMI Two-Unit Retreat w/ Pool, Rooftop Deck & Gulf/Bay Views
Welcome to Family Tides!
On Anna Maria Island (Bradenton Beach, FL)
*This listing is for BOTH units; Family Tides A & Family Tides B*
Where gathering comes naturally and every generation finds its place in the sun.
Just steps from the Gulf of Mexico in Bradenton Beach, this dual-home property offers space to spread out, come together, and share the kind of moments that become family legend — poolside laughter, sunset toasts on the rooftop, late-night stories told under the stars.
Perfect for: multi-family vacations, reunions with friends, or groups seeking connection with comfort and care.
Highlights
- Two complete homes stacked as one property — ideal for large groups or families traveling together
- Private heated pool with outdoor bars, TVs, and lounge areas
- Expansive rooftop deck with 360° views of the Gulf and Bay
- Each unit features its own kitchen, living area, and laundry
- Short walk to the beach, Bridge Street shops, and island trolley stop
- Driveway parking for 4 vehicles
Interior Spaces
Designed for both togetherness and privacy, Family Tides features two elevated units — each bright, spacious, and beautifully appointed.
Each home includes:
- King Master Suite: Private balcony, TV, and en-suite bath with walk-in shower.
- Queen Bedroom: Soft bedding and ample storage for comfort and ease.
- Twin Bedroom: Two twin beds with TV (convertible to a king upon request).
- Hall Bath: Double vanity and tub/shower combination for shared use.
- Open Living Area: Light-filled kitchen, dining, and living space with Smart TV and sleeper sofa.
