We carefully crafted Sunkissed & Salty to provide our guests with all the dreamy amenities typically found on resort properties, but in the privacy and comfort of a single-family home. Soak up the fun in our large, heated private pool and spa surrounded by lush tropical landscaping and inviting lounging and entertaining areas.

Speaking of amenities, we've supplied custom cornhole boards, and installed a professionally designed (3) hole putting green to get the competitive juices flowing. You can also slide into the game-room and challenge others on the foosball table, or get your 80's arcade experience on the retro video-gaming console. When all the fun gets your appetite screaming, fire up the grill and dine pool-side on our covered dining area complete with a 55" HDTV.

Prime Location: Sunkissed and Salty is steps, not blocks or minutes, to the beach. It's less than a full block to the sand. When you need to venture off property, highly popular Anna Maria establishments: Ginny’s & Jane E’s, The Sandbar, The Donut Experiment, The Waterfront and the Historic Anna Maria City Pier are all within 2 miles north. Publix(the island's best grocery store), Beach Bistro, Eat Here, The Doctor’s Office (amazing cocktails), and Skinny’s(best burger dive around) are within 2 miles south of Sunkissed and Salty. Notice a trend? Our close proximity to the most visited destinations on Anna Maria Island means more convenience for you.

Functional Layout: The interior of Sunkissed & Salty spans 2915 sq ft and two levels with all sleeping, living, and dining areas on the elevated level, while the ground level provides extra space for gaming and relaxing.

Two primary/owner suites, each with king bed and spa-like en-suite overlook the pool and offer rear balcony access. There’s an additional king bedroom with en-suite (shower/tub combo); and one bedroom that offers (2) XL Twins. Perfect for kids or single adults; or they can be adjoined to create a standard king bed – it’s your option. A full bath (shower/tub combo) sits directly across the hall. All bedrooms have their own TV's. We've also supplied a queen size Murphy bed. Our open concept living, kitchen & dining means no one misses out on the fun and lively conversation. Inside our kitchen you will discover it to be top-notch by any standard and contains all the cookware, utensils and gadgets to construct meals of any complexity.

Off the main dining area, an expansive covered porch offers peeks of the gulf and a quiet place to unwind.

We have all the beach & pool supplies handled - from sand toys to beach carts, chairs and towels. Just bring a beach umbrella because it's our experience they have a habit of mysteriously disappearing or breaking. Upon request, we can suggest our favorite beach shade kit and it fits in any luggage.

If there’s anything we can do to help expand upon anything related to our home, the location, or vacationing on Anna Maria Island, please reach out! One thing is for certain, you’ll need to book your stay at Sunkissed & Salty quickly before another guest snatches your week. Anna Maria Island is one of the most unique and beautiful islands in the U.S. AMI boasts beautiful beaches of sugary white sand and clear emerald waters. Once a 'secret' hideaway, USA Today, NY Times, NY Post and Coastal Living have offered rave reviews of AMI over the last few years; and Forbes recently named Anna Maria #3 in their 15 of America's Prettiest Towns. Finally, Anna Maria Island was ranked as the '3rd Best Island in the US'. We don't disagree!

Anna Maria Island is a 7 mile slice of paradise, The cottages and bungalows, locally owned eateries and shops that dot this tropical paradise give that 'Old Florida' feeling of ultimate comfort and relaxation. Our expansive home, Sunkissed and Salty, happens to be one of those homes that mirrors Anna Maria Island's atmosphere - quietly situated and wonderfully appointed yet close to everything you want to enjoy!

Both Tampa(home of the Tampa Rays MLB and Super Bowl Champion Buccaneers NFL) and Sarasota are just a short drive away offering easy international airport access to Anna Maria, and major attractions such as Busch Gardens, Universal Studios, Disney World and Sea World are anywhere from an hour to 2 hours away from Cozy Cottage. You have plenty to do all around as you can see, but once you settle into Anna Maria's laid-back living, you're likely to melt right into paradise and leave your cares behind you.

Travel is our passion. We first visited Anna Maria Island four years ago at the recommendation of several people from our home city. We had never heard of it - like so many people. Anna Maria 'had us at hello' from our very first day on the island. Was it was the seven miles of sugary soft, white beaches? Was it the crystal clear and emerald Gulf of Mexico waters, or the incredible hospitality of both locals and fellow vacationers? Maybe it was the fact that there are mostly independent, locally owned and operated restaurants and shops - each of them unique, fun and inspiring. No matter what it was that ultimately captured our attention, we set out on the crazy mission of owning a sliver of paradise. We started looking at houses im...

Travel is our passion. We first visited Anna Maria Island four years ago at the recommendation of several people from our home city. We had never heard of it - like so many people. Anna Maria 'had us at hello' from our very first day on the island. Was it was the seven miles of sugary soft, white beaches? Was it the crystal clear and emerald Gulf of Mexico waters, or the incredible hospitality of both locals and fellow vacationers? Maybe it was the fact that there are mostly independent, locally owned and operated restaurants and shops - each of them unique, fun and inspiring. No matter what it was that ultimately captured our attention, we set out on the crazy mission of owning a sliver of paradise. We started looking at houses immediately, but like anything worth having, it didn't happen right away. Four years after first visiting Anna Maria, we stumbled upon Cozy Cottage, loved it, bought it and started making it our own. In 2019, we sold Cozy Cottage and began searching for a larger home to accommodate our growing family and built Sunkissed and Salty in 2020-2021. Our goal is simple. It is to have our Sunkissed and Salty feel like your 'home' away from home and where you want to return to year after year.
