As you walk through the home or look at the pictures here, you'll notice the stunning views through almost all of the windows and doors! There are waterfront views from almost every room in the house, and they do not disappoint. Sunset is almost as amazing here as it is on the beach, grab a chair, sit by the pool, BBQ, and watch the sunset without leaving your home.
Explore the world-famous beaches that are just a quick walk or bike ride away and two blocks away is Bayfront Park which sits on Tampa Bay and it provides a beach, a playground for the kids, and amazing views of Tampa Bay and the Sunshine Skyway. You can walk from this area, along the beach, all the way to the North End (Bean Point) of Anna Maria, where Tampa Bay meets the Gulf. There really is not a prettier way to get to the Gulf, and you'll absolutely love this amazing walk. Or, walk the half block over to Pine Avenue and then head West about two blocks, and you'll be at the Pine Avenue Beach Access in just a few short minutes There is so much to do and so much to see!

We enjoyed our stay on Anna Maria Island. Property location was wonderful - walking distance to many shops and restaurants close to the free trolley. The outside patio lights either didn’t work or we had trouble turning them on. We had minor issue with the property - service was out the next day. No outside wifi speakers for pool area - very disappointing- so if you are checking in to this property bring your own. Also pool temperature didn’t stay consistent with temperature. We were told upon check in pool temperature maybe be less than desired- however that wasn’t the case - but on day three seemed like pool was not heated at all.
Excellent location, lovely views and clean! Pool and outside set up were great and sunsets were spectacular from the back porch. Perfect for us and 2 teens but would accommodate several more.
Home is lovely. Location is really great with convenient access to great shops, restaurants and beaches. Highly recommend!
Clean, updated, photos are exactly as it's listed when you walk in the house. My family has already decided we will return!
All in all we enjoyed our stay. We arrived early by plane and asked to be allowed to check in early…even 30min early. Communication was good, but I feel like zero effort was made. Inspector came at 3:50 (coincidence?). Even after he left, we couldn’t get in until we called at 4:15 for code. I’d rather the property mngmnt just say no instead of stringing us along for hours. Issues: live rat in grill upon arrival. I got rid of it, and let mngmnt know. They were supposed to clean or replace grill. Instead, a guy showed up unannounced to “get rat”. Poor communication. Two TV’s were without power cords. We received these on Day 2. One ceiling fan outside was stuck on low and could not be changed. Spa beside pool basically has no jets to speak of. Only one person can reasonably fish off of dock at a time. The garage and multiple cabinets/closets are “owner only”. In the summer, a garage would have been wonderful to have. All in all the house is nicely located and clean. It has the bare minimum of cooking items and honestly just zero personality. Beach chairs…there were 3 and one was broken badly. We bought 3 more and left them. Bikes…rusty and poorly maintained. Cooler…none. We bought one for beach and left it. Fishing rods…two; both broken. We bought 3 and left them. It was a hotel experience; not a house experience. We use home rental sites a lot and this was simply mediocre. Enjoy our chairs, cooler, fishing rods :)
Communication with the property manager was great. They were very responsive. The house was extremely clean and looks exactly like the pictures. We couldn’t ask for anything better it was a great trip
Staying at the Rod and Reel for a week was absolutely paradise. The home is beautiful and the outdoor area is perfection. The home is well stocked and the bathrooms have so many towels we never ran out! The breathtaking views from the yard of the canal were just wonderful. We saw many beautiful shorebirds, our husbands fished off of the dock and kayaked to the bay. We will definitely be back next year. AMI locals are an amazing company to deal with!!
Clean, private, comfortable place to unwind.
This property was everything we hoped for. We were surprised at how large a one floor lay our could be. The decor was stunning in every room. The pool area was like heaven, the kids jumped in the pool as soon as we got home every single time. Quiet neighborhood with many cute shops. We will definitely book again with AMI Locals!
Thank you so much for the stunning property! The ease of the booking all the way though to the checkout was the best ever! Any question I may have had was easily and promptly responded to via text! The beds were cozy, pool was cool and relaxing and we even saw manatees in the canal on the kayak! Everything was close by and we always felt safe. Amazing place to stay!
