Salty Dogs is the Perfect Spacious Beach House!

Salty Dogs is THE relaxing oasis for everyone! Conveniently located 2 blocks from the beach. Perfect for a quick morning walk or catching sunset! The heated hot tub and pool were wonderful for lounging, and the well-stocked kitchen and appliances made meals/snacks a breeze. We thoroughly enjoyed having all of the beach chairs, towels and noodles/floaties available to use too. Close to local retail shops and a delicious coffee spot for breakfast (Fifty Three Fifty). Thank you Salty Dogs! We will be back again!

Wonderful place to stay on Anna Maria Island!

***We would definitely stay here again!*** House was very clean, updated, fresh and welcoming. Kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. When we had a question about something, Gary, was very easy to get ahold of and prompt with his response. Plenty of space in the bedrooms, kitchen and living room for our entire family. Even though we didn't need the elevator, it would be nice for those who need it. What a great surprise to have beach toys and chairs to enjoy while there!! A good supply of beach and pool towels were available for our use. We were in very close proximity to shopping, restaurants, and to the beach. We have been coming to the island for 10+ years now and will definitely stay at Salty Dogs again.

Wonderful Vacation Home

The Salty Dogs is a wonderful vacation home! It is very close to the beach (3 blocks), the private pool is well maintained, walking distance to some great restaurants and shopping, and a short drive or bike ride to other great aspects of the island! Gary makes sure you are well taken care of when staying at his property. The kitchen is well stocked with appliances, pots and pans, and dishes to be able to prepare meals at home, as well as a grill in the back yard. Lots of pool toys and floaties, a wagon to take to the beach with a cooler, chairs, umbrella, and sand toys. He also has 2 beach cruiser bicycles available. Gary is very responsive when you have questions or need help, the home has clean linens and towels, and lots of space for the family to feel comfortable. There is brand new furniture around the pool, great for a pool-side lunch or dinner! And comfortable chairs to sit and watch the kids enjoy some swimming. We consider The Salty Dogs to be our home away from home, and we can't wait to come back next year!

Salty Dogs Is Wonderful!

We had a wonderful time at Salty Dogs on Anna Maria Island. Gary's house was more than expected, and the short walk to the beach and shopping was perfect. The attention to detail and owner's concern for guests was exceptional. The private pool and spa was perfect. The kitchen was well appointed with new appliances. Everything was very clean and organized for guests. Our trip was exactly what we wanted, and we will definitely be returning to Gary's home. Next time, we will stay longer.

Salty Dogs is a beautiful home, very well appointed, close to the beach, restaurants and shopping.

Salty Dogs is a very nice house in an area close to everything. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house had a private pool and spa. The great room has a terrific kitchen and living area with comfortable furniture. The three bedrooms are spacious and well appointed. The master suite with king bed and bathroom is fabulous. The linens and towels were all new. There were pool and beach towels, umbrellas, beach chairs, bicycles and equipment for our use. Most things are new, which is really nice. There were many extras like child high chair, Pack n Play in case needed. There is a house elevator for those needing it. We had our own private garage which was nice. Communication by the owners was excellent, everything was easy. The owners gave us lots of suggestions for dining and local activities. The house is close to everything. We plan to return next year.
