​Hurricane Update:

The entire complex is built on pillars more than 20 feet off the ground. The condo sustained no damage, we have been accepting guests for several weeks, the pool has been completely drained, acid washed, refilled and we have installed a new pump, a new filter and all new equipment. The pool has never looked better, the beaches are open, the restaurants are open and the weather is fantastic.

Escape to this bright, airy, freshly remodeled second-floor 2BR/2BA waterview condo in the quiet Bay Watch community of Anna Maria Island. This gem has an open-concept interior and a tranquil Caribbean color palette of powder blue, driftwood gray, white, and sun-kissed aqua.

Sip your morning coffee on the east view balcony and watch the sunrise on the bay. Watch the boats sail up and down the waterway on their way to the Florida Keys and Tampa Bay. You’ll see dolphins and manatees right from your balcony. The heated pool and the Gulf of Mexico are on the west side of the condo. Stroll just 400 steps to sugary beaches where dolphins play daily. The prime location, near Cortez Bridge, is a highlight. Enjoy easy access to the mainland.

You’ll love the new granite chef’s kitchen and breakfast bar. Remodeled bathrooms have luxurious details. This modern condo is thoughtfully adorned with tasteful tropical art. The Anna Maria Island Retreat is a magical retreat for families, couples, and snowbirds alike.

Living:
The living area is a comfortable coastal haven; lux vinyl plank flooring throughout the condo is the color of driftwood. Smooth ceilings, recessed lighting, fine trim work emphasize elegance. Relax on the plush, linen-color sofa and loveseat to stream your favorite shows or movies on the wall-mounted Smart TV. Enjoy conversations with loved ones, or curl up with a good book. The large sofa is a Queen size sleeper.

No detail is overlooked in this inviting, island-time living space; the sofa throw pillows are embroidered with starfish and coral. The distressed, whitewashed style, wooden coffee table has maritime fixtures. Sliding glass doors from the living room open to a balcony overlooking Palma Sola Bay. Sip an evening cocktail in paradise amidst the fragrance of frangipani and salty sea breezes.

Kitchen/Dining:
The spacious, bright, new, fully equipped kitchen is a chef’s dream! Royal blue pendant chandeliers illuminate the swank breakfast bar. Prepare a tropical feast after a day at the beach. Store your provisions in abundant custom cabinetry. Gorgeous pale-gray granite countertops offer space for meal prep. A backsplash of rough-cut natural stone tiles adds texture and depth to the kitchen. Stainless steel appliances include a glass-top electric stove, oven, microwave, French door fridge with an icemaker, dishwasher, and double basin sink with extendable nozzle.

The kitchen is fully equipped with pots, pans, cookware, utensils, cutlery, dishware, glassware, a coffee maker, a kettle, a toaster, a blender, a chef’s caliber knife block, and more. The sleek granite breakfast bar at the kitchen pass-through window has elegant, high-back stool seating for three.

The open design of the kitchen/dining area ensures that a chef is never isolated from the group. This breakfast bar is a sublime spot to sip your morning cappuccino or fresh-squeezed citrus juice. Share a glass of wine with the chef during dinner prep.
Situated between the kitchen and living room is a grand dining table with seating for six, illuminated by a contemporary chandelier with teardrop crystals. This farmhouse style is sturdy, polished oak, with cream-colored hardwood chairs.
