​Hurricane Update:

The entire complex is built on pillars more than 20 feet off the ground. The condo sustained no damage, we have been accepting guests for several weeks, the pool has been completely drained, acid washed, refilled and we have installed a new pump, a new filter and all new equipment. The pool has never looked better, the beaches are open, the restaurants are open and the weather is fantastic.

Look in almost any direction, and there are views of the bay, the gulf, and even downtown Sarasota. Steps away from the white sand beaches of Gulf of Mexico, this 2 bedroom/2 bathroom condo at Baywatch is located high up in the treetops near the shore of Anna Maria Sound. Renters can enjoy the peek-a-boo bay views from the oversized open-aired balcony. Located on the top floor with just one adjoining condo below, Baywatch 8B with windows on all four sides, is a true vacation getaway.

The first bedroom has a queen bed, glider rocker, cable TV, large walk-in closet with extra supplies, and an attached full bathroom. The second bedroom has a queen bed, twin bed, TV/monitor, and a large walk-in closet where guests will find plenty of gear for the beach. Another full bathroom is located adjacent to the second bedroom. The living room offers a comfy sleeper sofa, an oversized chair, and a large flatscreen cable TV. The dining room has a table, chairs, and bar stools at the counter providing plenty of room for a family meal or game night fun. The fully-equipped kitchen has everything needed to prepare and share meals together, whether enjoying views from the kitchen table, as a group in the dining room, or on the oversized open-aired balcony while taking in the wonderful gulf breezes.

MEDICAL AND EMERGENCY
Do not leave home without taking out a Travel Insurance that also covers medical emergencies. Make sure your insurance covers you for travel in America. The excellent Pinnacle Medical walk-in clinic (similar to UK GPs – General Practitioners) for minor accidents and ailments is just over on the mainland – approx 10 minutes drive. Blake Hospital comes highly recommended by many island residents. It is a large, modern and extremely well equipped hospital that offers a comprehensive range of medical services. Dr Guy Yatros at Island Dental Spa offers emergency dental treatment for visitors.

GETTING AROUND ANNA MARIA ISLAND:

We have two excellent local taxi services who will take you anywhere on the island or over to the mainland. Also why not try out the little island trolley that runs up and down the island, passing by every 20 minutes. There are plenty of stops and it is a great way to explore. It also has a bike rack on the front so if you want to cycle out and ride back this is a fun way to travel. Orlando is the world’s number one attraction which draws huge crowds. Lining up with children for hours in the Florida heat is extremely tiring, so make sure you have plenty to drink and wear comfortable shoes and clothes. A whole week of theme parks is exhausting. Our suggestion for a really enjoyable vacation is to unwind after your flight on the island and enjoy the sun, sea and sand, then make a one or two day excursion to Disney during the course of your vacation. We are happy to advise you on obtaining inexpensive overnight accommodation in Orlando.

TRAVELLING WITH CHILDREN:

Make sure small children wear sun hats, T-shirts and sunblock to prevent sunburn. Nearby shops sell them, plus a great range of beach toys, buckets & spades. Walgreens and Eckerd both pharmacies which sell many baby items plus prescription and non prescription drugs.

SHOPPING:
Prices in Florida are generally much less expensive than in Europe. We have excellent casual and beachwear on the island. For really serious shoppers the nearby town of Bradenton is home to an incredible factory outlet mall where you can “shop till you drop”. Also really worth a visit is De Soto Mall just over on the mainland, with three large department stores, diverse small shops, coffee shops and restaurants. Trainers, sports gear, cosmetics, sunglasses, luxury name brand clothing lines, jewelry, shoes, CDs, cameras plus a myriad of other items.

CLOTHING:
Make your journey easy, travel light. You have a large washer and dryer in your vacation home – you can buy great beach clothes & swimsuits here on island. Bring a light jacket for cooler evenings in winter months and wear cool comfortable cottons and sunhats/shades. If you are planning to take a trip up to Busch Gardens in Tampa or Disney in Orlando wear comfortable trainers.

ISLAND INFORMATION:
We place a local information file in your vacation property with the answer to almost every question that has been asked of us by our guests. This contains emergency numbers, contact information, getting around, things to do and places to visit, info on your property, services, taxis, local restaurants and general island info. Our two local island newspapers can always be picked up at Publix Grocery store on the island and are a mine of information for visitors on local events, new restaurants to visit, fishing news and all the local gossip. The Anna Maria Island chamber of commerce office also has a plethora of maps, brochures and leaflets plus info on local tennis courts, golf, water sports, boat & jetski rental, scuba diving, boat trips, fishing trips and area events.

WE LOOK FORWARD TO WELCOMING YOU TO ANNA MARIA ISLAND.
