Top Blue Water Explorers Hotel Reviews
Silver Surf Gulf Beach Resort
10/10 Excellent
"Checkin was super easy. Private beach is a plus. They gave us beach towels. Umbrella and beach chairs when you walk on the beach. The downside is the shopping in the area. Staff were super friendly. Offered breakfast every morning. Allowed us to leave car in the parking lot after checking out to use the beach for the day!"
NEW TO VRBO! RIGHT OFF BRIDGE ST & AMI PIER! CHARMING & PRIVATE !GREAT LOCATION!
10/10 Excellent
"The only part that was a glitch for me (but would likely not be for others) is with my arthritic fingers, I had a heck of a time opening the lock. That was just a personal me problem…and I was able to figure how to work around it. Otherwise, a charming and quaint little place😊"
Bridgewalk Resort
10/10 Excellent
"I loved this hotel"
Pelican Post at Anna Maria Island Inn
10/10 Excellent
"The facility was clean and the parking was right outside the door. We could walk to most things. We enjoyed the weekend there."
Island Daze · Pet-Friendly · 1 Block to Gulf
10/10 Excellent
"Everything about this place was just perfect.We love the location and they were always checking in with me to see if everything was okay and if we needed anything. We surely enjoyed our stay !! We had a wonderful time !! Thank you so much for everything!!"
Nautical Tides: 3 Blocks to Beach! Pool Spa! Rooftop Deck by Anna Maria Life Vacation Rentals
10/10 Excellent
"Our stay was excellent. The house was well maintained and everything was clean. The kitchen was well appointed, bathrooms stocked well. Complimentary toiletries were also provided. The views from the roof top were fantastic. Walking distance to just about everything. The pool area was great. The covered area was clutch during a few rain storms. Big drive way, accommodates 4 cars. Lots of bathrooms. Lots of beach gear. Only minor downside was the boat yard next door which could be noisy at times. Other than that…this place was amazing."
Waterfront with Unbelievable Views + Fabulous Lanai on the Water
10/10 Excellent
"Excellent location!! Fishing from the seawall behind the home was nice. Close to everything! We enjoyed our stay."
Private retreat walking distance to beautiful beaches and restaurants.
10/10 Excellent
"Overall it’s a good spot and clean place to stay. A quick drive to the island and back. Just wish there was a grill so there is something to cook on. 10/10 recommend staying if you need a place close to the island for cheap"
Beach Daze - 7 bedrooms short walk to beach with private heated pool & spa!!
8/10 Good
"We were a large group so the house accommodated us well. Beach was beautiful and we loved that we were able to walk into town as well as fish on the pier. The cleaners could have done a better job vacuuming and cleaning the floors. We had a couple of things that needed to be addressed and the response time was quick. My son forgot his Apple Watch at the house and I give a big shoutout to Kaylee from Beach House Real Estate for sending it back to him. Have never been to Anna Maria Island before and would love to go back again."
