About this property

North end AMI, 5* luxury home in one of the prettiest towns on gulf coast!

Welcome to Castaway Cove, this beautiful residence is a Bean Point gem, a stunning 4 bedroom property and 2.5 bathroom on the exclusive Northern end of Anna Maria Island! Hide away from the world, relax and soak up the sun in the private backyard with heated pool and lush tropical landscaping.

Walk to Pine Ave & City Pier from this designer 4BR/4.5BA home on Anna Maria’s coveted north end. Enjoy a private heated pool & spa, three suite bedrooms, a kids’ bunk room, and the convenience of an elevator — just a 5-minute stroll to the sugar-sand beach.

The downstairs game room provides an excellent 8ft Pool Table and Air Hockey table, perfect for adults and kids, or enjoy either of the 2 Smart HD TV's (internet only). Want to work on your beach body during your stay? Make use of the Bow-flex weights & treadmill in the Castaway Cove gym or stretch out your back on the inversion table! Have a refreshing outdoor hot or cold outdoor shower after the workout.

We have 2 Adult Bikes, 2 Kids Bikes + one small Bike, all for you to use around the island at your leisure.

Get the best of both worlds in a gorgeous home with fantastic amenities and a great location with the pristine white sandy beaches of Bean Point just a short 2 minute walk away! Three houses to the beach. Other fantastic local spots to visit are the renowned Rod and Reel Pier and Restaurant located just a brief 4 minute walk away, or the beautiful, newly renovated Anna Maria Pier and the popular Pine Avenue showcasing local boutiques and restaurants and so much more!

The sleeping arrangements include a King-sized bed in the Master bedroom, 2 Queen sized beds on the upper floor and a set of bunk beds-comfortably accommodating a group of 8.

Enjoy the fully equipped kitchen, with new appliances in 2023, ideal for making a home cooked meal with the fresh catch of the day or simply indulge in the local cuisine, there are many fantastic restaurants or home delivery to choose from! Our Bull Outdoor Kitchen is down by the pool to make the best BBQ in town, recently added our new pool bar with refrigerator to keep all those drinks ice cold!

For your convenience, Wi-Fi internet, a stereo, DVD player and a TV in each bedroom is provided-although you will probably spend most of your time pool-side or catching the sun on the beach-the choice is up to you, you are on vacation after all!

**Please keep in mind if the elevator becomes inoperable due to any reason, the stairs will be the only form of transportation to and from your unit**

Baby care facilities include a high chair, a stair gate, 2 pack 'n' plays and a sun tent for the beach. There is also a large trunk of toys by the pool.

The house is large, well maintained and perfectly located. We enjoyed the back yard with the pool and being able to just walk to the beach. The entry to the beach that is a block up is amazing - connecting to the best part of the point. We had great communication with the owner. We will be back!

The house was in a great location with easy access to the beach. Large living room and kitchen/dining area allowing plenty of space. Kitchen was well equipped. The outdoor kitchen and pool area was nice. A couple of maintenance issues (elevator and grill) were not able to be addressed during our stay but I’m sure that was mainly due to the holiday. Would definitely recommend this house to others and would stay here again if we return to AMI!

We have always stayed at this house and we always have an amazing time. Our kids call it the blue house. I recommend it 100%. Simon and karen are the best. The house is only a block away from the beach. Kitchen is fully equipped. The pool grill area is also spacious and ideal.

Our family of 6 adults recently spent five nights at Castaway Cove in February and had a wonderful experience. Each couple had their own bedroom, and two couples shared a bathroom. The living area was spacious, making it perfect for us to relax and spend time together. The kitchen had everything we needed (I would recommend bringing some chip clips). We enjoyed the balcony, patio and pool area. The house is located one block from beach access and a short walk to Pine Avenue where there are a variety of shops, cafes, pizza place, donut shop, small general store, outdoor market on Tuesdays and many other stores and restaurants. We would gladly stay at Castaway Cove again and highly recommend it. Guests should be aware that shampoo, conditioner, body wash and tissues are not provided. Great host who responded quickly to questions. It was an added advantage that the only instructions on departure were to remove all consumables and take out all garbage.

Castaway Cove was the perfect for our group of 8! The hosts were easy to communicate with and we felt very welcome in their beautiful home. There was plenty of room for everyone, we had everything we needed, and the location was ideal, with a short walk to the most beautiful beach on the island. We would definitely stay here again!
