About this property

Anna Maria Island Private Waterfront Oasis on Bimini Bay | IG: AMIBlueHeron

Imagine your own private oasis overlooking Bimini Bay on a quiet street on Anna Maria Island. Well, imagine no further. It's right here - secluded luxury...nestled among the tropical foliage....private...waiting just for you. The main living area of this spacious, island resort home opens onto a huge, screened porch, with Bimini Bay shimmering just beyond the palms. Below, the pool awaits, including a covered seating area, built in grill, and outdoor shower. A private walk among among the palms leads to the dock and boat lift.

The open floor plan allows for everyone to gather comfortably, relaxing as you create memories of good times shared. A gourmet kitchen is fully equipped to accommodate the serious, gourmet chef or the casual, late night snack. Even from the kitchen, the bay is always present. Adjacent to the kitchen, you find yourself drawn to a relaxing, living area which offers a large screen TV above the gas fireplace and even more views of the bay.

Multi-generational families will appreciate the elevator which makes access to all living spaces both easy and convenient.

Plenty of outdoor space for enjoying those non beach days. Relax by the heated pool, enjoy the hot tub, or play a round of pool on the custom pool table. Catch redfish and snook from your private dock. A paddle board/kayak lift makes for easy access to the water for exploring Bimini Bay, or you may sit, relax and hang out watching the dolphin swim by. Sunsets are spectacular!

Two bedrooms and a lovely bath are located just off the living room. One of the bedrooms opens to the covered screened porch, while the other features built in twin beds. The master suite and sitting room also face the bay with access to the private upstairs screen porch. The views are unforgettable. The master bedroom is spacious and comfortable with a large bathroom and two separate sink areas. Another bedroom, with private bath, make this level very private and great for allowing families some separate space. The upstairs sitting area includes a wet bar, wine refrigerator, and TV viewing area which opens to the screened porch with views of the bay.
Mangroves, palms and natural, tropical vegetation surround the property making it very private and comfortable.

This is the perfect choice for those seeking privacy and comfort on Anna Maria Island. Only a short stroll away, you will find the City Pier, shopping, restaurants on Pine Ave, and the Tampa Bay beaches. What are you waiting for?

Beautiful vacation getaway
The house and amenities exceeded our expectations at every turn. This beautiful house is in a secluded neighborhood, but close to it all. We have two teenagers who absolutely loved the pool, pool table and dock for fishing. The house had everything we needed and more. Brian was so helpful and super responsive. Would love to visit again!

Nothing short of spectacular!
Property is nothing short of spectacular, enough said. Communication from property manager/owner set the tone from the beginning, I knew Brian was genuinely interested in making sure that our stay was as good as it could possibly be. Every recommendation he made was spot on, even the fish charter. Highly recommend and definitely will be back again.

Great time in Anna Maria
Great stay. Beautiful property. Only concern was water depth at low tide at the dock. We have a 26ft contender that we could not dock at low tide due to water depth. We had to end up docking at local marina

Fun Family Time
It's a beautiful house. It's well appointed and beautifully situated. We didn't make use of the golf cart or kayaks but they were available as an option. We brought our boat up and kept it at the dock behind the house. One thing to consider if you plan to bring a boat... The tides were extreme because of the super moon so I don't know if it always gets as low as it was when we were there but at low tide our boat literally sat on the ground. The boat lift which can't be utilized blocks the access to the deeper water. Everything else about the house was excellent.

Family Vacation
The house and property were even better than the pictures! We brought our boat and it was great to just hop in from the dock each day. The peacefulness from the back porches watching the birds was amazing. We cooked most breakfasts and dinners in the house. Everyone in the family enjoyed their vacation!

Spectacular Home
The home was even prettier in person. We loved the private dock and enjoyed fishing off the pier. All of the beds were very comfortable and well appointed. So many places to sit and relax. The location was perfect, it was a little slice of heaven. Brian was a great host and was quick to respond to any questions we had. Many great memories were made.

Had a wonderful week at 517 Blue Heron Dr, lovely house, containing everything you could need …only negative point was it could do with some more sun loungers rather than the Adirondack chairs

Anna Maria vacation
We loved our stay at this property! The house is spacious with lots of room for everyone and the amenities are fabulous! We enjoyed many games of pool while watching TV at night. Having the dock is perfect for paddleboarding and when we went on a fishing charter they picked us up right from the house. Brian is a fantastic host and we can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful Home
Sometimes the pictures make a home look larger than it actually is....in this case it was the opposite. I was surprised walking in that the rooms looked much larger than pictured. The living area has a gracious amount of space, comfy couches and a great kitchen. The house has beautiful views on all floors. The house is well appointed and even has an ice machine! Very convenient to hop on golf cart to Bean Point or the local restaurants and shops. I would definitely put this home on my list to stay again.

Wonderful trip to Anna Maria Island
We had an absolutely wonderful time on Anna Maria Island. The house was beautiful and spacious. The owner was very helpful and gave us a lot of tips and information on things to do and places to see around the area. The pool and outside area was also beautiful and it also has a pool fence which was nice that I didn't have to worry about my toddler falling in. We did have one small issue and the owner came out right away and took care of it. He was great, very attentive and accommodating. All in all, great vacation. Highly recommended!!!

Wonderful house, wonderful host!
Our family spent several weeks at the Blue Heron during the winter of 2021, as we worked from home during the pandemic. We were so lucky to have found Blue Heron! The house is very large and beautifully appointed. The setting is magical — with beautiful views over Bimini Bay in a peaceful, private setting. Brian, the owner, is extremely responsive and flexible. We love it so much that we’re coming back!

My family and I truly enjoyed everything this property had to offer. The location was perfect. It was close to everything but still seemed very private. The views of the bay were wonderful to watch the sunrise. We enjoyed all the amenities, especially the pool and pool table. Brian was amazing and always quick to respond to any questions or issues.

Home Away from Home
It’s a lovely house. One of my kids had a nice study area, my smallest played with the toys on site, and my eldest played pool. My kids had a great time by the pool and when fishing. The kitchen was equipped to prepare a nice meal. It is a family friendly place and a great place to remove oneself from the city and stress. There is a lot of thought and detail to every corner of it.

This house is beautiful, the location is great, just a short bike ride to the beach. It connects to the bay, which is very calm. We spent a lot of time at the pool. It has all of the accommodations and more. First time at Anna Maria Island and we would love to return to this house.
