We are heading down next month for our first trip to AMI. My teenager really wants to snorkel while there. Is there a recommended company that has good snorkeling trips? Best spot? Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
I've been reading up on the dangerous currents. How much further south would we need to go to be able to get in the water waist deep? Not familiar with this area and want to be safe.
We are experienced rental property owners, but that is long term rentals that we self manage. We are exploring the idea of purchasing a vacation rental property but we would need to pay someone to manage. I have no idea what the going rate for that is in the area and was wondering if anyone had any idea. I’d want someone local who takes good care of the property. We love Anna Maria and 30A so we’re really only considering those two areas.
hi! i’m going to anna maria island for my 16th birthday in late august. we’re thinking about staying somewhere around bradenton beach or the north shore area but idk if that’s the best spot so lmk. i’m mostly looking for cute/fun restaurants for a birthday dinner, good beach spots (especially for sunsets/sunrises), places to get dessert, take pics, or just anything fun to do as a teen. also if you have hotel or airbnb recs that aren’t insanely expensive that would be amazing. just want a good vibe overall 💗
some places I already have is
-north shore cafe
-brandy melvile
- holmes beach
-fudge factory
Hi all! We will be vacationing to Anna Maria Island with our two sons age 5 and 7 and friends who also have children the same ages! Need some advice for those who have vacationed there. Best things to do with kids? Best restaurants? We also are hoping to venture out to Siesta Key one day while there so any information about that location would be great as well!! TYIA 🥰
Visiting AMI soon and was curious if the pizza and ice cream shops on Gulf Drive just north of Bridge St ever reopened after the hurricanes?
It was the closest thing you could get to the quality to pizza that you can get in the midwest & NY. Hoping both shops open soon!
