We heard about ANNA MARIA ISLAND, a few years ago. Every year when we travel to florida we usually head over to Siesta Key. The only down fall of going there is finding a parking spot. So this year we decided to head over and all I can say is breath talking. To find a beach like this in the...

When we sit and ponder where we want to go on vacation each year-- we agree on Anna Maria Island. It has everything we need for a great vacation. The most beautiful beach and sand. Perfect accommodation choices. Free trolley around the island. Great shopping and dining. For a relaxing vacation, this is our only choice!

great place to visit though when staying here, look for a place off the main drag at spring break, it is a very busy road. Awesome beaches!

I just spent a week on Anna Maria Island. It was wonderful-----no high rise condos and no fast food restaurants. The weather was beautiful. We sat on the beach, read, rode bicycles, ate at great restaurants, and shopped at the neat shops. Very low key and relaxing.

Two years ago my family made vacation in Anna Maria Island. The beauty, simplicity and back to basics feel of this lovely island changed something in my soul forever. This summer we vacationed in Florida once again, but not in Anna Maria Island. Before leaving we all agreed we just had to drive the 1 1/2 hours to Anna Maria...

We spent a week at Anna Maria Island w/ our two kids. We rented a 2 bedroom beach house through Anna Maria Accomodations named "Turtle Trax." It was located on the quiet north end of the island. If you're looking for a quiet, peaceful vacation, definitely stay on the north end of the island. The other areas of the island...
