5 Minute Short Walk To Beach, Shops and Restaurants - Single Level Home

Please see our other property Blue Grotto for Reviews #1974897.

Recently renovated with all new kitchens, bathroom and new furniture!

Welcome to our Blue Bella on the beautiful Anna Maria Island. We hope you will enjoy every minute of your stay in our 5 bedroom and 3 bathroom home. Our unique property features lots of living space and full kitchen all on one level. Our little slice of heaven is perfect for family vacays, wedding guests, fishing/golfing trips or that annual girls trip! You are only a very short 5 minute walk to the beach, shops, great restaurants or just head out the back door to the pool or fire pit. You will want to return year after year!

Blue Bella is a single family ranch style home with all living space on the ground floor. The kitchen and family room are open concept and very spacious.

There are 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on one side of the home. One of the bedrooms on this side has an ensuite bathroom and a door to the back patio. The other side features 2 bedrooms and one central bathroom. Each bedroom has closet space and a television.

The pool is very large for the the area and gets some shade late in the day just in time to cool off. There is a large outdoor fire pit area for family gatherings!

We provide beach towels, beach chairs, wagon, cooler, bathing towels, sheets and blankets. We have a linen service which ensures quality and cleanliness of all linens and towels.

Kitchen is fully stocked with utensils and dish ware along with an amazing blender for fun drinks. We also provider a starter set for essentials like dish soap, trash bags, bathing soap etc...

Location, Location, Location! You are a short 5 minute golf cart ride to AMI Beach Cafe serving my Dad’s forever favorite all-you-can-eat pancakes every morning. A quick 2 minute golf cart ride to grab a cold beer at the Freckled Fin Irish Pub or 5 minutes in the other direction for some ice cream at my personal fav- Dips! Adult Night Out...don't worry, The Doctor's Office is crafting cocktails only 2 minutes away. If things get ugly at the Ugly Grouper, you are only 1 minute from home on a golf cart or a 5 minute walk if you want to stay for one last pina colada. If you want to pick up some of the freshest seafood around at Captain Anthony's Seafood Market and grill by the pool then your side dishes from Publix are only 4 short minutes from home. Jump on the free Island Trolley to check out Coquina Beach or Anna Maria City Pier. Feeling like a homemade cinnamon roll just about the size of your head then head straight to Ginny’s & Jane E’s Cafe. You won’t want to miss the sunset at The Sand Bar and while you are there...order a pina colada with a dark rum floater! Historic Bridge Street will keep the whole gang entertained for hours purchasing all the sharks teeth, alligator sculptures, shell bracelets, bathing suits or singing along with the band at Island Time Bar and Grill. It shouldn’t even be legal to skip a fried grouper sandwich on the deck at Tide Tables. Some would argue that the fried shrimp at Starfish are life changing

Southern hospitality and a chill vibe welcomes all ages at The Blue Bella in AMI. Enjoy a lazy afternoon reading while the kids swim in the pool. With only a few steps to the sugar white sand beach, the Blue Bella is so convenient to pop back and forth for that true island style living. Who will be the first to spot a Manatee or perhaps one of the 5 different species of Sea Turtles? Who will win a game of cards around the large 8 seats kitchen table? A quick walk in the evening to enjoy the breathtaking sunsets from the most beautiful white sand beach is the best stress reliever that I have ever found. Come back home to rest in one of the 2 queen bedrooms or double twin bedrooms or if you are lucky…the master suite with a comfy king bed and ensuite bathroom....each with their own television.

Come experience the vintage charm of Anna Maria Island, a seven mile little slice of heaven where flip flops are standard and the speed limit tops out at 35 mph. See ya’ll soon!
*Heating pool is an extra charge.
***Please inquire about less than weekly rental in offseason.***
