About this property

Get your beach time in at this poolside cottage between gulf and bay

Trust us when we say, you will surely fall in love with this quaint pastel cottage that still retains that old Florida charm.
In the slice of heaven that is Anna Maria Island, this personable resort is perfectly situated in the narrow area between Sarasota bay and the sandy beaches of the Gulf of Mexico.
On your stay you can enjoy the resort’s heated pool lined with royal palms and overlooking the Bay, or take a few steps to reach the white sand beaches. There's a pier that you can fish off of or just sit on and watch the sky hues and wildlife.
Our cottage has a shaded porch and a cozy picnic area perfect for barbecues, nestled under a gazebo covered with tropical foliage.
The inside is decorated in a casual island style, with a light, open-space kitchen and living area. The Kitchen and bathroom have just been updated. The driftwood color floors have been laid throughout the cottage. In the bedroom there's a king size bed and a walk-in closet. The living area has a comfortable pull-out sofa bed.
The kitchen is well-equipped with anything you need to cook a great meal in the cottage.
You will have 2 free parking places available to you.
Beach towels and umbrellas are provided at the office and lounge chairs are on the beach for your use as a resort guest.
On the beach near the resort there are jet skis, kayaks and paddle boards available for rent.
Nearby you can find a large variety of excellent restaurants that will please everyone’s taste.
With just a fifteen minute walk or a short ride on the free trolley, you can reach Bridge Street, a charming shopping district where you can enjoy the small shops, boutiques, fresh food and mini golf. The trolley can take you up and down the island to explore different beaches, shops and restaurants.
The position on the south end of the island makes it easy to reach Longboat Key and St. Armand's Circle for out-of-the-ordinary shopping and dining. You can easily get to Sarasota to see The Ringling Museum, Sarasota Jungle Gardens, and the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens. For boat tours to explore the island, see the wildlife, go fishing or just watch the sunset I recommend Captain Jerry Mayer amicruises.com.

Great Cottage

The cottage is very well done, totally updated and very clean. The location is great and the beach is across the street. Beautiful beaches! There is a small community pool to enjoy as well. My only critique is that the couch is old and not comfortable to sleep on... I would recommend they upgrade since everything else has been upgraded. Great stay and place to stay!

Quiet, convenient, and beautiful

This is a cute cottage in a quiet location but an easy walk to great restaurants and of course, the beach! Walk to a pier for a pretty sunrise view, or across the street for a nice beach sunset (chairs, umbrella and towels are provided). Kitchenette has all the basics, comfortable king bed, lovely pool, 2 TVs (cable), WiFi. Seems like a mostly-adult area although that could have just been the time of year we were there. The hot tub and the end of one pier were evidently hurricane casualties, but don't let that stop you from enjoying this lovely retreat with an outstanding beach. We were very pleased and would happily go back!

Very nice cottage and community

Our stay at the cottage was truly delightful. The description provided was spot-on, offering an accurate portrayal of the accommodations. Every piece of information we received proved invaluable, ensuring a seamless arrival experience. If I were to offer a suggestion for improvement, it would be to consider stocking the kitchen with some basic essentials such as salt, pepper, and oil. While minor, having these items readily available would have enhanced our overall convenience and comfort during our stay. Despite this minor detail, our experience was exceptional, and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment of our time at the cottage. We look forward to the opportunity to return in the future.

Tradewinds Condominiums

We loved staying at this property! The check in was easy and friendly. There is a pool with lounge chairs and bathrooms to use (nice for the kids) and access to a peir where you can watch the sunrise or fish. The condo is a short walk from wicked Cantina and Gulf Drive restaurant which quickly became our favorites. Traffic can become congested in the area during the day but there are plenty of transportation options such as the monkey Bus, trolley and renting bikes. The condo was very clean beautifully furnished, the kitchen has a everything you need. The bedroom was big with 2 closests to use and the bed was very comfy. This was our first time coming to island and will definitely not be our last, hoping to stay at this place again in the future!

Perfect Property for a Perfect Stay

We loved our short week on Anna Maria island in this cute little cottage on the Tradewinds resort. Communication with the owner in the run up to our stay was 10/10, and she was able to answer all our questions and send through all the relevant information in good time The place was immaculately clean, and the property had everything we needed for our stay. The bed was super comfortable and there was plenty of storage. The kitchen had all the appliances we needed - perhaps a small kettle could be added - and there was an additional outdoor grill as well. The resort itself had an on-site pool, but also offered free sunbeds on the beautiful beach itself - just a few minutes walk away. Our cottage also came equipped beach umbrella, which was easy to transport and setup. In terms of location, the property and resort was ideally situated for all the island has to offer. The nearest supermarket was only a 5 minutes drive, and there was a stop for the free island trolley to take you up to the north of the island just outside the resort itself. It is also only a 15 minute walk down to Bridge Street where there is a clutch of restaurants and bars Overall, would 100% recommend this property and would gladly book again

My family is a Tampa family, although I grew up moving around the US. We have been vacationing on beautiful Anna Maria Island for 23 years. I live in Italy and enjoy coming to the island whenever I can.

Why they chose this property

This property has the advantage of being in a small resort with everything you need to enjoy the island. There's a beautiful pool overlooking the bay and edged with royal palms.
There are great restaurants within walking distance and a free trolley next to the entrance. The resort is made up of adorable Key West style, pastel and white cottages. There is an office with someone available during the day for any help you may need.

What makes this property unique

The resort is across the street from the beach... just 2-3 minutes walk.
There is a porch with chairs and a patio on the side with a barbecue grill and mosaic table and benches under a pergola with tropical plants all around.
