Whether you are talking about the Florida Peninsula or the Sorrento Peninsula, everyone loves the beach!  Two hurricanes destroyed our little house on Anna Maria Island in the Fall of '24, but out of the adversity came a beautiful little Italian Villa, built from the ground up and available for occupancy on October 19, 2025!  With Mediterranean accents throughout, a beautiful in ground pool, and an adjoining grotto, you will think you are back on the Amalfi Coast.  But throughout the home itself, every room is adorned with authentic fish mounts from Florida's greatest game fish, so you will always be cozy and ready for your cheeseburger in Florida paradise.  Our Villa, nestled between the beach and the bay, with views of both, may be why the Italians say Quando la vita ti da limoni, fai limonata! 

This newly finished home backs onto 17 acres of mangrove forest and is situated on a quiet pond which includes a dock for fishing. All towels, linens, cooking utensils and beach chairs are provided. We have enclosed parking for 2 cars. Close to shopping and restaurants, it is perfect for your Island getaway!

    Great location on the island and great for dogs. 2 blocks to the bay and 2 blocks to the Gulf. Property manager was responsive when an issue needed resolved. Would there stay again.

    The renting process was a breeze from the reservation to the day of walking into the home. It is a small older house...so don't expect latest greatest gadgets, decor or roominess. Only 2 block walk to beach. Pool is small but works for 7yo & 9yo. My biggest complaint is owner needs to invest in umbrellas for patio and pool area. Luckily we had brought our umbrellas and hubby was able to rig them up around the pool...so BYOUmbrellas!! Also invest in some throw rugs at backdoor and sliding door area. Our kids complaint was the twin beds were too hard. I would not stay here again mainly because we aren't repeat renters and it does need some updating.

    this home has everything you could want and need. the property manager is great to deal with. always wants to help out with what you might need to happen. recommend this place for great location and a nice small private pool with your own backyard to enjoy.

    Short walk to the beach, great pool area. House had many mechanical issues and the maintenance service took multiple days to respond.

    This house is a great deal...with a pool, three bedrooms, all the amenities you need. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The manager April was such a delight...she was so attentive. The hammock was awesome! I especially enjoyed the outside lighting. The beach was such a short walk and so was the bay. Publix is right around the corner. Location is amazing and so was the price. Looking forward to returning next year.

    The house was clean. It is an older house but everything was clean. I would recommend this house. The yard was very nice. It was a little too cool for us to use the pool.
