Beachfront Bliss at Bamboo Apartments #2– A Hidden Gem on Anna Maria Island!

Hello, Guest!

Welcome to Bamboo Apartments, Apartment #2, part of our family-owned five-unit beachfront retreat featured in Southern Living Magazine (Jan/Feb 2020). If you're looking for a meticulously maintained, super clean, simple, quiet, Old Florida-style getaway with unbeatable beach access, you've found it.

Nestled on nearly an acre of pristine beachfront, our property offers 150 feet of private sugar sand beach front with six expansive, uncrowded patios—no busy streets to cross, no stairs to climb, and no crowded hallways. And, if you’ve forgotten something, it’s a quick hop back to your apartment to retrieve it. Perfect when traveling with “littles.”

Wake up to garden and beach views in this newly renovated, ground-level one-bedroom, one-bath apartment with full kitchen. A short stroll through the wildflower meadow leads you straight to the beach, where gentle Gulf breezes and breathtaking sunsets await.
Step inside and relax--
• Coastal-inspired décor with custom rattan furnishings, vintage touches, and hand-picked historic photos from the 1930s & 40s (taken right on the property!).
• Spacious, light-filled living area with a queen-size sleeper sofa, a dining table for four, and sliding glass doors that open to the tropical landscape and Gulf views. Open up the sliders and listen to the waves and smell the salty breeze.
• Private patio just outside your door, complete with a dining table, chairs, umbrella, and charcoal grill—perfect for morning coffee, alfresco meals, or late-night stargazing.
• King-size bed in the large bedroom, featuring a custom latex mattress for ultimate comfort and a walk-in closet to keep your space organized.
• Fully equipped kitchen with full-size appliances and all the essentials for easy, casual meals. But, you may want to try an island restaurant for some delicious suppers.
• Newly renovated, including kitchen and bath.

Outdoor Paradise & Unforgettable Sunsets
• Six breezy Gulf-front patios to unwind and soak up the island vibe. Grab a book from the laundry shed library and stretch out on the lounger in the shade of the towering Australian pines.
• Charcoal grills for the ultimate beachside cookout.
• Beach essentials provided: chairs, umbrellas, a mini cooler, and towels—just bring your swimsuit, flip-flops, and sunscreen!
• Outdoor shower & old-fashioned clothesline to rinse off and dry your beachwear after a fun day in the sun.
• On-site coin laundry located in the old cistern house.
Walk to Everything!
• Café on the Beach – Enjoy all-you-can-eat pancakes and a beachfront playground for the little ones!
• Skinny’s for hamburgers, fries and everything you are not supposed to eat. Try the onion rings.
• Restaurants, grocery stores, and shopping – just 3 blocks away.
• Free island trolley stop – Explore Anna Maria Island with ease!
