Description of the Property

The Barefoot Cottage island home on Anna Maria Island - one hour south of Tampa and just 35 minutes north of Sarasota - is one of the gulf's premier rentals located two blocks from the white sand beaches and crystal blue waters of the gulf, island shops, boutiques and beach side restaurants. We hope you enjoy staying at Barefoot Cottage as much as we do! Sincerely, Bob & Katherine of BobKatProperties, LLC

"We loved staying at Barefoot Cottage. The accomodations were perfect, just steps to the beach and all the activities, yet peaceful and away from it all!" Tom and Maria - Long Island, NY

Bring your swimming suit!

With beautiful gulf waters only two blocks away, make sure you bring your swimming suit and plenty of sunscreen! You won't believe the soft, white, clean sand and blue waters for miles and miles. Your daily beach activities can include collecting a wide variety of shells, viewing the protected turtle's nests, watching dolphins swim in the Gulf, seeing the beautiful sunset as well as sunning, swimming, sailing, boating, parasailing, jet skiing and much more.

"The sunsets were amazing and the most beautiful I have ever seen. It is the locals and vacationers' ritual to head to the beach each night and count until the sun sets in the horizon. Each days' setting is a totally different experience as the tides, wind and weather changes." John and Maria - Effingham, Illinois

Airport: Sarasota or Tampa International
Distance: 25 Minutes or 1 Hour from Tampa
