Kitchen

If, after a busy day at the beach or around the pool contemplating whether to sample one of the many excellent local restaurants, use the barbecue grill to cook out by the swimming pool or to eat in, you eventually decide to eat at the villa - the kitchen is fully equipped. As this will be the largest decision of the day here in paradise, it is well worth taking your time to reach a conclusion (take a swim and lie in the sun while you are thinking about it).

Pop down to Publix for some great steaks or the nearby Cortez fishing village for fresh seafood, salads, fresh vegetables and the best bakery in Florida.

Outside

Drive through wrought iron gates and pillars topped with cast decorative lighting. The driveway, walkways and around the pool are all topped with Roman style brick pavers and the landscaping is lush and full of flowering tropical plants incuding bougainvillae, hibiscus, oleanders. Tall palms sway in gentle breezes while you relax by the pool. The island's pool company visits twice a week to ensure that the heated pool is kept in the best possible condition for guests.

Just three minutes' walk from your front gates lies the gorgeous stretch of seven miles of white sand beaches that string out along Anna Maria Island's west coast. There is a great little place here called Cafe on the Beach - they serve breakfast that you can eat with your toes in the sands - try their all you can eat pancakes with maple syrup and butter and a dish of fresh fruits or go for the "full Monty" of eggs, bacon and fries washed down with limitless cups of coffee.

The trolley stops here so you can ride up and down the island free of charge and if you do want to have your car close by for elderly relatives or very small children then there is parking under the pine trees.
