Just got home to cold Wisconsin from our annual vacation to Anna Maria Island at Beach House Resort #1. As always, this place is great! You walked out the screened in lanai and you are on the beach! The condo is very clean, go to Publix, buy some groceries, and feel at home. There is a trolley stop right outside the front door, and with the mystop app, you know exactly when it will be there. There is a restaurant right next door, and plenty of places within walking distance, but I suggest taking the trolley. We call this our paradise away from home! Oh, and if it is raining, you are still on the beach, because of the screened in lanai!
