About this property

The Seaside Sanctuary is the ground level unit of a beachfront duplex. It is the 2nd home from the beach with no roads to cross. The front yard is literally thirty steps from one of the most pristine beaches on the Gulf of Mexico. If you open the windows at night, you can hear the rolling surf and smell the salt air. The house is located on a quiet residential street near the north tip of the island. There is no public parking in this area so you pretty much have the beach to yourself. The front deck features plenty of seating and is a great place to relax and enjoy the beautiful Florida weather. The house is clean, comfortable and well appointed. The back yard has a shed filled with beach gear, a BBQ grill, picnic table, chiminea and a sun sail shade. We welcome well behaved dogs and have a fully fenced yard for your pup to play.

The house is light and bright with a multitude of windows. Everything is decorated in a fun and classy "seaside" style. We believe in a good night's sleep so we invested in high quality memory foam mattresses, crisp, clean linens and plenty of pillows. For the chef in the family, there is a fully stocked kitchen with everything needed to cook and serve most meals. Nothing is more annoying than going to a vacation home that has only one pot and 3 plates! The house has high def smart TVs, bluetooth sound bar for streaming your favorite music and lightning fast wifi throughout. We are neat freaks so you can expect the house to be immaculately clean. In fact, we do a full deep cleaning after each guest. We tried to think of everything so you have all the comforts of home.

The Village of Anna Maria, on the north tip of Anna Maria, is the best part of the island. It is known for beautiful beaches, breathtaking sunsets and a bunch of really nice people. Not surprisingly, our number one recommendation is to set up an umbrella, plop down on a beach chair and watch the waves roll in. If being a beach bum is not your thing, you can stay busy by hunting for seashells, building a sandcastle or trying your hand at surf fishing. Either way, we provide all the equipment and recommendations to make your day at the beach relaxing and enjoyable.

Just Right

The apartment is very clean, with comfortable beds and a very well stocked kitchen. There were plenty of towels, including beach towels. Proximity to the beach was as best as could be without being directly on the water. Stephanie was a perfect host and was available immediately for any questions we had. The only complaint we have is the upstairs guests could be heard. We could hear them walking above us as well as their 2 dogs barked frequently. But that was very minor. We would definitely come back again and stay at this very adorable unit.

A little bit of heaven

Every expectation for our time of much needed R&R was exceeded. Our rental was clean, peaceful, within steps of the beach. Our hostess, Stephanie, was very accessible to any questions we had. We definitely plan to come back and we don’t need to research rental homes, we have our home away from home on Ana María Island. We wouldn’t think of staying anywhere else.

We have owned and operated vacation rentals for more than a dozen years. I love the hospitality business because I get to meet a bunch of really nice and interesting people. Sometimes I get to play a small part in planning their dream vacation too! Hopefully, we can provide a place where you can make memories that will last a lifetime.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this home 100% because of its location. The property is located on a quiet dead end street and is only a few steps to one of the most pristine beaches in the Florida.
