About this property

Anna Maria Island Rentals - Beach Front - "Angels Envy" -Rod & Reel Pier Retreat

First, Anna Maria Island is broken up into 3 cities, Anna Maria, Holmes Beach and Bradenton Beach. The City of Anna Maria is the most northern part of the Island and the most popular. When searching for Beach front rentals, be careful. A standard search of VRBO will Show 300 plus listings. Only a fraction of these are actually in the city of Anna Maria, and even less are actually ON the Beach. Many will be, steps to beach, blocks to beach, or beach view, or beach area and on and on. Make sure you actually select beach when doing your search. Then make sure you zoom in on the map to see which ones are "ACTUALLY' ON THE BEACH. There aren't many, but MINE IS!!!!! I can't tell you how many people say they were mislead by this type of description and ended up blocks from the beach.
Anna Maria and it's "Old Florida Charm" will sweep you away. With breathtaking sugar white sand, emerald water and some of the most incredible sunsets and sunrises in the world, its no wonder you are looking us over. If you're looking for a new 3 or 4 story brand new concrete home with all the latest and greatest, this is NOT your place. This is an "Old Florida" beach home. That's the reason people come to Anna Maria, we are mostly "old Florida". Please review pictures closely to see what you get. If you're going to sit inside all day and look at the walls and marvel at the granite counter tops and how modern the place is, your wasting your vacation. What's more important, looking at the new modern place your staying at, or spending your time on the beach fishing or watching Dolphin's and Manatee's and incredible Sea Birds and our beautiful Island? Direct beach front with the water is less than 50 foot to your bedroom!
Our family has lived on this Island for 40 years and visited way before that.
From the first cup of coffee watching the sunrise in the morning to the margarita as the sun goes down, you won't be disappointed. Please note, this is an elevated home as required for all new homes built after the mid 1970's by Anna Maria City regulations. There are stairs from the ground level to the living second floor and ALL guest must be physically capable of climbing stairs.
Why not spend your vacation at my home and truly enjoy Anna Maria!!
Please Note: the entire west coast of Florida suffered several Hurricanes in 2024 causing lots of beach movement and storm damage. My home was spared major damage and we are currently booking for 2025 and 2026. Thank You!!!

Perfect Getaway

We stayed March 16-28. Had a wonderful time. Joe is very responsive and communicative. The island is super crowded during March, but we were able to navigate through the traffic jams. We enjoyed sitting on the upper deck and watch the sunrise and then watch the dolphins in the evenings.

Great spot

We really enjoyed this house, it had everything we needed and more. The owner was very responsive. Close to everything! The dolphin watching off the deck was the best. The house could use a full length mirror for the ladies getting ready. Lol. But all, in all it was a great place to stay, very homey.

Absolutely perfect

This place is nicer than I expected. Very comfortable peaceful home with perfect location. I walked bean point every morning to find whole sand dollars. The dolphins play continuously out front and they came very close to me while paddle boarding. Comfortable beds and the kitchen has everything we needed. We actually never went out to eat. Thank you Joe! .

We could walk to.several restaurants and others were just a short drive away. We’d love to stay there again!

Great House in Anna Maria

We enjoyed Joe’s place so much! He was so prompt and helpful with communication and any questions we had. The house is old Florida charm, very clean, and great location! Dolphins put on a show daily while we were there. Quiet and peaceful area with great sunrises each day. Would go back again for sure!

WONDERFUL

We were booked during tropical stormy Debby. The host kept us updated on the latest weather forecast. We did leave the house for 2 days due to island flooding but the host had a clean up crew there quickly to get us back in quickly. The view from the home was amazing. We watched dolphins and manatees play every day. 5 stars all the way!!!!!!

Loved sitting on the second-floor balcony and watching the various wildlife. Nice quiet area with basically your own beach. We swam every day and felt very safe. Nightly walks to Bean Point to enjoy the sunset. Highly recommended. Thank you, Joe.

Amazing and relaxing

We have stayed at this property before and absolutely love it! Location is priceless as you can observe wildlife from the deck or even while cooking! House has fun beach toys for kids which is a huge plus for a family. Joe (the owner) is fantastic and very responsive and helpful. House has an old Florida feel which we love and has an awesome outdoor space for eating and grilling. We loved our stay and will be back!
