About this property

Gulf View Paradise - modern and spacious - Steps to beautiful Gulf Beach

  • Escape to a sanctuary on the exclusive, tranquil North End of Anna Maria Island. Following an extensive 2021 and 2024 modernization, this elevated coastal retreat offers the perfect blend of modern luxury and "beachy" comfort.



    The Space:

    Perched high like an "Eagle’s Nest," our home features soaring cathedral ceilings and light-drenched interiors. With 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, there is plenty of room to breathe. Enjoy a fully renovated kitchen, newerly furnished bedrooms and master suite with upper deck with fresh, modern furnishings throughout.



    The Experience:

    Prime Location just Steps (only 100 ft!) from the pristine, white sands of Florida’s most quiet and beautiful beach.



    The View: Relax on one of two covered porches and watch the Gulf of Mexico turn to liquid gold at sunset.



    Family Ready: We’ve thought of everything—from comfortable baby beds to fully equipped kitchen.



    Rest your soul, feel the balmy Gulf breezes, and re-energize your spirit in a home designed for ultimate relaxation.

    Your "Gulf View Paradise" awaits.

As the title says, it truly is a spacious house...open and full of light! We thoroughly enjoyed our time here, and loved walking to the beach and into town. It was a chilly week, but we were still able to relax several afternoons on the gulf-facing deck warmed by the sun. Amazing sunset views from the upper deck! It was such a treat to have the opportunity to meet the owners and hear their story of building this lovely home.

The location of the house was awesome. 1/2 block to the beach entrance and within walking distance to several shops and restaurants. The house had very nice views of the gulf from the front deck, kitchen and master bedroom. It was neat, clean and comfortable. Our stay was great and we will not hesitate to stay there again.

The house was lovely and the location was perfect. Our only complaint was that when we went to retrieve the key code the address listed on the instructions was not correct and we could not get a hold of the property manager for assistance. After hours of searching we were finally able to track down the correct address and the code. Unfortunately this didn’t get us into the house until well after midnight. We did enjoy our week and loved the proximity to the beach.

Ana Maria Island Family Getaway

We had an amazing vacation thanks to the wonderful house steps away from the beach we stayed at for the week, the beach house was very clean, spacious and comfortable, plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for our family of 6 guests, with a three car garage and all the beach necessities included. Communication with the host was fluid and we had zero issues during our stay. Highly recommended.

Our Favorite: location, house, owners/management

This was our second time staying at this property. The home is wonderful: comfortable beds, good sized rooms and bathrooms, all the beach things you might need (chairs, umbrellas, toys, cooler, wagon, etc), drip and keurig coffee makers, all the things. The location is awesome: only a two minute walk to the beach. The owners and management are incredibly responsive, kind and easy to communicate with- after difficulty with management at other homes, I am so grateful to know that our stay at this home will be stress-free!

Beach sunsets

This property is in a wonderful location, across the street from the beach. It was exactly as advertised. The deck off the 3rd floor master bedroom with its views of the beach and sunsets is the best place in the house. The view may change in the future when there is a house built on that empty lot.

Simply wonderful!

My family and I so enjoyed staying in this beautiful home. The location was perfect! A short walk to the beach across the street for early morning walks and watching the sunset in the evening! The location is quiet and peaceful. Only a short walk to the shops on Pine Street. The large front porch makes for a wonderful place for early morning coffee and a quick lunch between beach visits. The beds were very comfortable, and the house had everything that we needed. This is our third trip to Ana Maria Island, and it will not be our last!

Happy Place

The house is wonderfully located just a short walk to the beach, and a short walk to Pine St shops and trolley stops. After a small hiccup at check in, which was quickly resolved, we enjoyed a relaxing week+. There was construction going on directly behind, which started at 7am T-R, but not something the host could control. The house wasn’t fancy, but had all the amenities we needed. The hosts were super responsive and gracious throughout our stay. We’d definitely stay again! Thank you, Waldmullers!

Family time and 50th Bday Celebration

The house was well stocked and in a great location by Bean point. The beach was a short distance around the corner from the house. It was nice that they provided a wagon and supplies for the beach. Lots of stairs to this home especially if you are staying in the master bedroom. But the garage being available for the teens to hang out in was an extra Bonus. The only thing I would be aware of there are no televisions in the downstairs bedrooms. Other than that we had such a Great Vacation! There is a sign in the yard that says tortoise crossing.. and we got to see him in action walking across the main road. That was fun to watch. We would stay here again!

Beautiful home.

Our stay was very interesting. The hurricane force winds and the storm surge were our first time experiencing a hurricane. We weathered through and Kerstin and Georg kept in touch with us to make sure we were ok. This meant a lot to all of us. We did puzzles and walked the island when it was safe to do so. The only downside was the black ants. I informed the manager and he assured us they had just sprayed. We bought some ant traps and sprayed Black Flag ant spray and this took care of the problem. This is a beautiful home with a view of the Gulf.

Quiet and Clean

My husband and I stayed for a week in AMI for a workation in December, and enjoyed our time there. The property has a great floorplan with all of the living space on the second and third floors (garage is on the ground floor). The big covered deck on the second floor allows for easy access to the living area, kitchen, dining, and laundry. The primary bedroom on the top floor was comfortable and a nice quiet place to sleep. The only reason that we gave this property a 4-star review is because the owner did not provide many of the basic supplies that are needed when renting a home for a full week. With 3 bathrooms, there was only one partial roll of toilet paper, and no shampoo, conditioner, or shower soap (not even hotel samples to get guests past the first night). There were only 5 dishwasher pods (we rented for a full week), and no laundry soap. Given the price that we paid for the week in this home, we would have expected at least these basic supplies to be provided. When we asked, the owner simply replied: "We rent a vacation home.all guests provide their own supplies. We have normally toilet and one roll of kitchen paper in the cabinet for the start." Additionally, we were disappointed to find that nearly all of the white bath and hand towels were dingy and thin, most likely from overuse and a lack of proper laundry soap or bleach. Overall, Anna Maria Island is a lovely place for a vacation and the neighborhood is quiet and safe.
