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! .

My Happy Place

First time on Anna Maria Island, and loved it! The angels envy was a perfect location to stay in for us. We were very impressed with the cleanliness and the kitchen was amazing! Joe was a very attentive host and quick to respond. We loved having the beach in the backyard, but just know there is no additional beach beyond the sea wall. A great spot to float and fish! The dolphins and manatees were amazing to watch throughout the day along with the beautiful sunrise in the morning and a five minute walk to beautiful sunsets! The beaches are beautiful with the softest sand ever. We enjoyed having a rental car to explore, kayaking, walking paths on the preserves and the unbelievable restaurants close by. We chose not to do golf cart and or bikes, but keep that in mind. Rentals are everywhere. There is a lot of recovery reconstruction going on but it’s amazing. How much has been completed. Thank you Joe for an amazing experience!

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!

Sea Sanctuary for the Soul!

My girlfriends and I are grateful to Joe for offering his beautiful home to rent and enjoy. Joe communicated with us throughout the catastrophic hurricanes and took every measure to accommodate our needs. We couldn't have asked for anything more. Joe's home is spectacular and had been updated and refurnished. His home was appointed with everything we needed for our comfort, entertainment, relaxation, and enjoyment. The rent is a great value considering such spectacular, unobstructed views and selfishly enjoying them without neighbors or being among a multi-unit property.Every day we were greeted with the most colorful and glorious sunrises, meandering manatees, rambunctious rays, salty sea birds, and delightful dolphins frolicking mere feet from us. Our cheeks were gently kissed by a fresh ocean breeze and we were mesmerized by the waves lapping outside our door with water colored every shade of blue and green which nourished our souls. Joe was an attentive host and responded quickly to our questions and needs leading up to and during our stay.The houses on either side were impacted by the devastating hurricanes and at various stages of disrepair. We felt it gave us a greater deal of privacy to enjoy the majestic views from the deck and ground level lounge chairs.Joe, we LOVED your place. Thank you for everything! You are the host every other should aspire to become. Hope to be back soon. Lisa, Michelle, and Tara.

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!

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!!!!!!

Another Great Week!

We have stayed here several times and have never been disappointed. Very Clean and we Love the Location. We love sitting on the deck overlooking the beach. We watch sunrises, dolphins, Rod and Reel Pier, boats (small fishing to Cruise Ships) and a super variety of birds! Short walk to Bean Point for the best beach ever and beautiful sunsets. Can't wait to go back!!
