Location
Area Information:
Anna Maria Island is located on Florida's Gulf coast 35 miles south of Tampa Bay and 7 miles west of Bradenton Florida. Anna Maria Island Florida is the northern most of a string of barrier islands that stretch in a southerly direction toward the Florida Keys. Surprisingly Anna Maria Island comprises three very unique cities (villages), Bradenton Beach on the southern tip of the island Holmes Beach in the middle and Anna Maria on the northern tip. The sugar white sand beaches and crystal blue waters extend the entire length of Anna Maria Islands seven miles coast line. This isn't a place where you go to the beach. When you are on Anna Maria Island you are at the beach. Anna Maria Island is rimmed with towering Australian pines, some as high as 60 feet, along with magnificent palm trees and sea oats. Abundant bird life soar against the bright blue skies.
Anna Maria Island Florida is affectionately known as the island in the sun and is Florida's best kept secret. With Gulf temperatures averaging 84 degrees and 361 days of sunshine per year the surrounding waters of Anna Maria Island are known as the nursery because of the large number of dolphins that raise their young here. When walking or dining on Anna Maria Island's four gorgeous beaches or its surrounding coast line it is not uncommon to see dolphins playing.
With the island's laid back charm and leisurely unhurried living speed limits are restricted to 25-35 mph throughout the island. This tropical paradise also offers free trolley service for both tourists and residents. A car is not necessary when vacationing on the island or you could park your car for your entire vacation. The trolley tours the island from 6:00 am and 10:30 pm and runs every 20-30 minutes. For your convenience the trolley stops right in-front of our Anna Maria Island Florida beach rentals condo.
Anna Maria Island is completely surrounded by four tropical bodies of water and is accessible by two drawbridges from the mainland and one from Longboat Key where you will discover Sarasota. This tropical island paradise offers you seven miles of the most beautiful and peaceful white sand beaches found anywhere in the world lined with fishing piers, 150 miles of waterfront, waterfront restaurants, three waterfront parks crystal clear blue waters that meet the seemingly endless powdery white sand beaches of Anna Maria Island Florida.

Our family, 2 adults and 3 children ranging from 4 to 14, stayed at this place for 16 days in July, and this is really a perfect location on the island. Just walk across the street and a parking lot and you're on the beach. When the beach got closed by the life guards due to weather, we could just walk right home, and walk right back when it cleared up. Since parking is a problem at Anna Maria Island the option to do just that is great. Holmes Beach/Manatee Beach is wonderful. There tends to be less crowded if you walk slightly to the right, as it appears that most beach goers like to settle down close to the life guard tower. A nice playground for kids, 4 beach volley nets as well as a café on the beach. And do make time to watch the beautiful sunsets. The apartment was like we expected from the pictures. It had a cosy feel to it. Well equipped kitchen, so we didn't miss a thing. The kitchen and bathroom could benefit from an upgrade, but everything works as it should. The beds in the bedrooms have good, firm matresses (and we're quite picky when it comes to these things). The front door was a little hard to open and close as it gets stuck, but it wasn't a big problem when we got used to it. The pool is shared with the house next door. It's small, but our kids loved it. It's a nice place to relax before and after the beach. There's sund beds and chairs and also a nice Weber barbeque there. There was some trouble with the pool while we stayed there, but the owner quickly got in touch with a repair man (she dropped by as we were lounging by the pool one afternoon). There is two washers and dryers in the basement. Great to be able to do some laundry while travelling for quite a while like we did. There is some traffic, but the noise didn't bother us. Terry has put together a binder with lots of information both concerning the apartment and the island. There a great Publix in walking distance from the house. Terry was swift at responding to minor problems we reported by email. The floors and sofa bed weren't adequately cleaned when we arrived late our first night, and Terry quickly arranged for the cleaning service to rectify that the next day. Terry was easy to correspond with all the way. We had a great first visit to Anna Maria Island and we just know we'll come back to visit this beautiful island many times.
