WELCOME to “Island in the Sun” ... this newly renovated home on AMI offers charm, comfort, and luxury. Island in the Sun is located just one block south of Pine Ave and just a few flip flop steps away from the City Pier Bay Beach and the popular restaurant - The Waterfront. The City Pier Bay Beach offers narrow white sand beaches, amazing views of the newly constructed City Pier, the Skyway Bridge and the boats traveling back and forth in Anna Maria Sound.


Island in the Sun is an elevated home where you will find ease and relaxation the moment you arrive ... there is a shaded charming front porch waiting to welcome you! Leave your car parked (4 spots provided), the City of Anna Maria is very walkable, and our island’s free trolley is only a few steps away on Pine Ave. Island in the Sun offers all the goodies to make sure your vacation doesn't skip a beat. The 2 en suite bedrooms and 2.5 baths make for easy living. This island home is elegantly designed to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Take a dip in the heated pool, light the gas grill for a barbecue and spend your evening relaxing on the front porch or back deck that overlooks the beautiful lagoon style pool. You will enjoy all the outdoor space and privacy. As always, we make sure you have the ability to stay connected on our free high-speed wireless internet! Kick back and relax, turn on one of the Flat screen TV’s and catch that flick you always wanted to see or that must-see sports game.

Some of the artwork in the house is painted by the owner. Mostly watercolor, these pieces add to the beachy, relaxing vibe of the place. They’re done in fun colors and reflect the energy of the island. You can buy prints directly from him — see info in the guest book.
