Anthony Beach Cottages - Italian Retreat - 2 bedroom home with pool - Sleeps 6
Whether you are talking about the Florida Peninsula or the Sorrento Peninsula, everyone loves the beach! Two hurricanes destroyed our little house on Anna Maria Island in the Fall of '24, but out of the adversity came a beautiful little Italian Villa, built from the ground up and available for occupancy on October 19, 2025! With Mediterranean accents throughout, a beautiful in ground pool, and an adjoining grotto, you will think you are back on the Amalfi Coast. But throughout the home itself, every room is adorned with authentic fish mounts from Florida's greatest game fish, so you will always be cozy and ready for your cheeseburger in Florida paradise. Our Villa, nestled between the beach and the bay, with views of both, may be why the Italians say "Quando la vita ti da limoni, fai limonata!"
This newly finished home backs onto 17 acres of mangrove forest and is situated on a quiet pond which includes a dock for fishing. All towels, linens, cooking utensils and beach chairs are provided. We have enclosed parking for 2 cars. Close to shopping and restaurants, it is perfect for your Island getaway!
