Watch dolphins & pelicans from this 2 bedroom/2 bath waterfront condo.

A real gem on beautiful Anna Maria Island!
This 2 bedroom/2 bathroom is nestled uniquely between Palma Sola Bay to the East and the Gulf of Mexico to the West.
The condo complex at Runaway Bay boasts a fishing pier and a short 4-minute stroll to private beach access on the Gulf side leading to the immaculate six miles of white sandy beaches.

Enjoy the sunrise each morning while enjoying your fresh brewed coffee. In the afternoons you can enjoy the dolphins playing in the bay. Manatees can also be spotted.

You will enjoy the largest heated swimming pool on the island, a first-class tennis/pickleball court, fitness room, a sauna, a large and welcoming clubhouse, a Bocce ball court, shuffleboard court, and picnic tables and outdoor grills.
All of this is just minutes from a variety of dining options, historic Bridge Street, Gulf and Bay fishing, bicycle and walking paths, and many fine shops for must-have souvenirs and everyday essentials. You can also find bicycle and kayak rental options, or tee off on the public golf courses in the area.

The condo is fully equipped so you and your family can enjoy a home-away-from-home. Prepare delicious meals in a bright, open kitchen while sipping an evening cocktail. Or grill outdoors on one of the charcoal grills.

For all coffee lovers, you will find: a regular drip coffee maker, French Press, Keurig machine, and a coffee grinder.

Reserve your dates today so you don't miss out on the one thats right for you & your family! ***Due to our recent move to the East Coast, we unfortunately cannot use the condo like we once did. Due to that we have made a difficult decision to list our beautiful condo for sale. If there is a showing during your stay, rest assure a realtor will always be present and showings are typically no more than 15 mins, so it will not interrupt your stay. You never know, you may be the next owner after you see how beautiful it is. We know you will fall in love with the island & the condo. 🌴
The condo is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

The condo was exactly as shown on the video. Every imaginable need was met at this totally remodeled unit. Morning coffee was a joy on the patio watching a sunrise over the bay while pelicans and dolphins were always to be seen. We had the best neighbors Dorthy, Kim and their friendly dog Kiki who made us feel right at home. Very highly recommended this property !

Linda is an amazing host. Condo is clean, spacious, and well stocked. First rental we stayed and didn't have to buy every supply needed. Property is quiet and neighbors are so nice. Excellent communication with Linda. Close to many beaches to visit. By far, this was our favorite stay. We hope to visit again.

We had a wonderful experience at this condo. Linda and Randall were the perfect hosts and very responsive. The condo is as described, and the location is great. You can walk or ride a bike to most any place you want to go. We enjoyed watching the dolphins, jumping fish, blue herons, egrets, pelican, etc. from the patio. We would highly recommend a stay at this location; we definitely will return.

A perfect condo in a perfect location

From the moment we first made contact, Linda was an amazing host. The condo is perfect with everything you need for a relaxing stay on Anna Maria. We loved the bay views for sunrise (with manatees, dolphins, pelicans, herons and an osprey to watch fishing) and the short stroll to the beach for Sunset. Bridge Street is just a few stops on the free trolley with a stop just outside Runaway Bay entrance. We hope we can come back soon, thanks for allowing us to stay in your lovely condo Linda.

Great location, beautiful and spacious condo. There were 5 adults in our group, and we never felt crowded. Everything we needed for the beach was there. Beach chairs, umbrella, coolers, beach towels, etc. An added bonus was the pantry that had spices and other things you may need. It was nice to know the items we left will be useful for the next visitors. Great view and lots of wild life right outside the back door! This is a well maintained property in a quiet area. Great for older people. We'd definitely stay here again!

Thank you so much for sharing your little peace of heaven with us. We sat on the back porch and watched dolphins, herons, cranes, and pelicans and later made the short walk to most beautiful beach. The condo is everything in the description and more. There were games, coffee, beach chairs, a cooler and umbrellas, cable and WIFI, beach towels and more. We wanted for nothing. The owners were lovely and checked in with us to see if there was anything we needed. This property was like walking into a home away from home. We are already planning our trip back. Thank you again for allowing us to stay and create the most wonderful memories:)
