Escape to Anna Maria Island!

Welcome to Ave Maria!

We are a 5 minute walk to Anna Maria Beach. Head on down to Bean Point, located on the northernmost tip of Anna Maria Island in Florida, is a popular beach known for its secluded atmosphere, beautiful white sand, and stunning views of Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico.

This desirable north island location is a gem boasting a short walk to the beach, bay, with shopping, restaurants and ice cream! all right around the corner. Relax! soak up the sun and the quiet laid back style that is Anna Maria. Many activities are readily accessible such as jet ski, beach bikes, boat rentals, parasailing and fishing.

The kitchen was completely renovated in January 2025. We have super comfy beds - king is the master, queen in the guest room, and a sleeper sofa with new mattress. Our house is located a short walk to….everything! Enjoy the beautiful white sand beaches and sip a cocktail while watching the most fabulous sunset shows every night. A place to call home. A place for the entire family. You may never leave!

Enjoy our screened in front porch with seating area and fans. There is also an entire screened in living and dining space under the house with TV, grill, and games. Relax and be entertained! Have a cookout!

For your sun and fun days at the beach there are beach chairs, floats, sun umbrella, beach wagon, and beach toys available for your beach time. When you return there is an outdoor shower and foot rinse.

To enhance your beach adventure take a bike ride - we provide several for you. Check out Beach Bums for other rentals like kayaks, paddle boards, or group bikes and golf carts. A block away is the community recerational center for fitness and tennis (day use and week memberships are available). The playhouse is down the street.

The home is spectacular and we had a wonderful stay with family and friends that came to visit. We would stay here again any time. Close to the beach and one block from Pine Ave where you can eat and shop. We rented a golf cart and had fun.

Best stay yet!

This was our third stay at this property/house. We feel very comfortable, and love the renovated kitchen this year. The walking proximity to the beach, and some of the restaurants is convenient. Just a short drive to play pickle ball or tennis. One of our favorite things to do is sitting on the porch in the morning and drinking our coffee before we plan our day.

Cozy and quaint beach house

The house felt very homey, it was quaint and cozy, almost felt like a relative lived there and let me borrow it for a few days. Jeff communicated info about check-in and more a couple of days ahead of our arrival, and again the day of. Self check-in was a breeze since the door lock was digital and the code had already been provided. The house was comfortable, thoroughly clean, well equipped (full kitchen, linen closet with extra towels, bedsheets and blankets), with different spaces to gather (inside and out), comfortable beds, 2 full bathrooms, everything well stocked, even welcomed us with a tray of snacks and water bottles. My young child was always entertained with toys and games found in the living room tv unit. The house is on the older side but evidently kept well cleaned and maintained. Although we didn’t use any of it because we had brought what we needed, there was a storage unit full of beach chairs, toys, a cart, bikes, and probably more that was made available to use. Having the downstairs, outdoor shower was great to rinse off the sand when arriving from the beach. Location was also great, 2 blocks away from the beach and walking distance to restaurants and stores. I already recommended this place to a relative looking to go to AMI soon!

Beautiful location. Anywhere you want to be is walkable. Lots of restaurants, shopping, and other points of interest nearby. The beach is a very short walk, basically two blocks away. The photos on VRBO do not do the house justice. It is beautifully decorated and comfortable.

We were looking for somewhere new to go but wanted to stay in Florida. My daughter was dying to go to the Gulf Coast and we stumbled upon Anna Maria Island through Instagram. This vacation rental was absolutely perfect, and we couldn't have had better hosts! It was very clean and there really isn't much you would need to bring with you. Jeff was very communicative and didn't hesitate to list his favorite spots when asked. The beach is literally 2 blocks away which was super convenient. This rental is also just one street over from the cutest little shops and restaurants. I would definitely rent a golf cart when you are here. We didn't use our truck at all as the golf cart took us everywhere. We will be back for sure!

Relaxing Stay in Anna Maria

My family and I had a wonderful stay at Jeff's place in Anna Maria. Our two boys, 4 and 6, loved the toys, games, and legos, and it was so nice having beach gear to use. Beds were comfortable and the location was perfect...just a quick walk to the beach and the bay. The unit was clean and cozy. We would love to stay there again in the future.

We had a great time during our stay. The location was perfect - just a short walk to the Gulf and Bay. The house was very comfortable, with great beds and a comfy couch, perfect for mid-day naps. It was well stocked with all the items we needed. We made good use of the beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, and wagon, and we're very thankful that these items were available as they made our beach experience much more enjoyable.

Perfect location for relaxation, beach and fun!

House was very spacious for a family of four with teenage boys. We loved the screened in porch in the front and the downstairs screened in room for games and movie night. This place is located half way between the gulf on one side and the bay on the other. Both a short enough distance to walk or bike. Located near shopping and restaurants too but on a quiet street. Home had everything you need. Kitchen was well equip with staple items like oils, seasonings, sugar, etc. Lots of beach towels, beach chairs and beach toys. Even had a couple fishing poles. Overall a really nice place with a great location. Was perfect for our family's stay!

We really enjoyed our week here! The house is clean, the kitchen well stocked and Jeff was a great host! Thanks, Jeff, for the new grill since the old one was rusted out--we used it! We enjoyed the outdoor living room and the games! Lots of beach equipment in the shed! The bikes were a great way to get around the island (FYI, the breaks on the white bike are not great--but we made it work) The screened porch is great place for morning coffee and evening card games! We would definitely stay again! Thanks for the good experience!

Classic relaxing beach house

Jeff and Susan are wonderful and responsive hosts. Their home is ideally situated two blocks from the Gulf, two blocks from the Bay. There are numerous restaurants within walking distance. The home is well equipped with everything to make for a comfortable home away from home. The beds are soft so if you like that you will be fine.
