Set on the low-key, sophisticated barrier island that is Anna Maria Island, right on the Gulf Coast, this is perfect for a transquil break as a family or with friends. The condo-style apartments provide ample room to spread out, relax, and take in that fresh sea air. That secluded island feel is guaranteed here, with an aura of tranquility accompanied by beautiful sunsets and glistening waters. Cook up a storm in your own kitchen, or wander down to The Chateau Anna Maria if you want to be taken care of - where you'll find traditional European cusine with an American twist. Whilst you've got a swimming pool and games corner on-site, the island trolley makes it easy (and free!) to explore the rest of the island, where you'll find watersports rentals, local yoga classes, cocktail bars, and beaches galore.

Girls trip! The units are great. Well appointed. Great location within walking distance to the beach and shops. We went food shopping and bought our own libations and enjoyed ourselves. There is a room with two queens and a bathroom, and a room with a king and bathroom, and laundry! The kitchen has everything you need. We rented beach chairs… Read more

There is a room with two queens and a bathroom, and a room with a king and bathroom, and laundry! The kitchen has everything you need. We rented beach chairs from Beach Bums, which were delivered free of charge, locked up on the bike rack, where we returned them after our stay to be picked up. There is also a dolphin cruise/sunset cruise offered right out back. A great place to stay. Read less
Look elsewhere

Beware. The website photos do not tell the complete story. This hotel is not in the best area and there is a strip mall across the street. You need to cross through a parking lot and the strip mall to get to the beach. This should not be a $1200/night hotel. I’d do your homework. Highly disappointing for a Marriott road warrior who stays in… Read more

So much to love

We stayed here a couple of weeks ago and really enjoyed our experience. The rooms were clean, and the location was fantastic. However, we had to move rooms three times due to mold from water leaks and AC return problems. To make matters worse, the elevator was out of service, and we were on the third floor.
5 - 2 = 3 :-(

This is a tough one to write... First of all. For the lucky enough to visit this place: This is an amazing place at all levels. The rooms are gigantic, very well kept, super comfortable and with anything and everything that you could possibly need. Even for the most demanding of us. Service - front desk did everything in their power to makes us feel welcome and pampered. Luis and Claudia are truly stars of hospitality!!!! Housekeeping - One of the best I have seen. The suites are impeccably clean. (If you read my reviews... I don't say that lightly LOL) So, what failed? Why the 4 stars? We were very unfortunate to have to deal with a broken elevator and a room on the third floor. This really put a damper on our vacation. There was plenty of frustration and wasted time. Specially at the time of going to the beach with chairs, cooler, umbrellas, etc. One of us had to go down to the front desk. Ask for the service door to be open, bring a luggage cart upstairs, load it up and then go to the front desk again. Ask for the service door on the third floor to be open so that we could come down in the service elevator. To make the matter even worse. This was a family vacation. It was particularly inconvenient for the older members with mobility issues. For an Autograph Collection hotel. This simply can't happen. This cannot exist. The elevator can't be broken for three days. That is unforgivable. My true rating is a 3 start. But I otherwise found the place so perfect that I want to give it extra consideration. Please, please. Don't allow this to happen. When you have only one elevator. You got to have the mechanism in place to have it fixed in a couple hours at the most!! This doesn't happen at Holiday Inn. PLEASE. I really hope to be back. Beautiful island, incredible place with the kindest people . Thank you to all that help!!! Read less
Great Service, Room, and Pool

This is a wonderful place. Emi was very helpful in setting us up with a beautiful, spacious 2-bedroom. It was very clean, full kitchen, washer and dryer, and balcony Claudia at the front desk also went above and beyond to make our stay special. Pool is a bit small but clean and wasn't busy at all when we were there. There is also ping pong… Read more
