Unit is upgraded with smart tvs, screened in terrace complete with a quiet, peaceful view of the lagoon that flows through the center of the complex.

Anna Maria Island has over seven miles of beaches to explore, but finding the perfect beach for you is important for having the ultimate island experience. Both of Dans Florida Condos are located directly across the street from the beach. We offer two deeded access points to the Private Beaches for your family’s enjoyment. You’ll find the north access point the safest for crossing as there is a traffic signaled crosswalk for your convenience.

If you are looking to socialize a bit more, you are a free trolley ride away from two of Anna Maria Island’s most popular beaches.

Dans Florida Condos are nested centrally, within the award winning Runaway Bay Complex. Without a doubt, one of the gems of our property is our Pool. The pool is the largest heated/salt water pool on the entire island. Enjoy sun lounging chairs, tables with umbrellas, and security controlled entry to ensure only those registered at the complex are sunbathing in your company. Both of my units are located directly around the corner from the pool, so making a trip to refresh a cold beverage is easy peasy!

Unlike similar sunset celebrations in Florida tourist meccas such as Miami, Naples, or Key West, there are no rowdy crowds, wall-to-wall bars or panhandlers. Also absent on Anna Maria are high-rise condos and chain hotels. You’ll have to drive off-island for a McDonald’s or Starbucks fix. Instead you’ll find quaint beachside resturants often run by locals and family members who have run their establishments from one family generation to the next. There is also a zoning limit of 3 stories on building upward, so goodbye skyscraper lined beaches!

Anna Maria Island is home to hundreds of artists, many of whom show their work in local art galleries or take classes on the island. During the winter/spring season, many gallery walks, outdoor art festivals and juried art shows are offered. … Anna Maria Island artists support each other and love sharing their talents with visitors from the globe that visit their piece of heaven.

BY TROLLEY
There is a free Trolley service on Anna Maria Island, and Dans Florida Condos has a trolley stop right at our entrance. It is super convenient to travel the island from one end to the other from 6:00 AM until 10:00 PM. Go touring, pick up your groceries or go out to dinner and have a drink.

BY MONKEY SHUTTLE
The Monkey Bus is just on of the modes of transportation this fun company has. You’ll see their golf carts zipping around the island as well. Whether you need a quick ride somewhere on the island, or need golf cart or bus transportation for an event, like a wedding, or to an event, like a baseball or hockey game, this is who can help.

BY GOLF CART
Anna Maria Island is very Golf Cart Friendly. It’s a fun way to get around in our warm climate. There are several businesses that rent Golf Carts by the day or by the week. They all deliver to your rental and pickup too.

BY FOOT
Dans Florida Condos are situated just north of Historic Bridge Street. Here you will find plenty of options for resturants, miniature golf, water sports, shopping, and pubs with live music. Take a stroll down Gulf Drive or walk the beach to this popular destination. Make sure to check out some of the beachside resturants and tiki bars on the way!

Area Information

Greetings potential renter. I own several units at this property since 1991 and have fully enjoyed the time I get to spend here. I also own a 2br unit just a few steps down from this unit as well! My family and I stay in the units several times a year, which is why it's important to me to keep it updated and clean. We pride ourselves in having one of the cleanest and most functional units around, and our past guest reviews back this up!

I have rented this unit out to dozens of singles, couples, families, and organizations throughout the years, many of which are repeat renters. I look forward to working with you, and sharing my treasured 'home away from home' with you.



Why I chose Anna Maria Island

I chose to buy this home due to its convenience, beauty, and proximity to the Gulf of Mexico. Its located just 25 minutes from the Sarasota airport, and is walking distance of many shoreline restaurants and amenities on Gulf Drive.

There is beach access within directly across the street from the unit (with private beach access), not to mention benefits from the beautiful grounds and fellow owners of Runaway Bay.

In addition, i promise to you open and quick communication. I bet you'll be surprised how quickly I respond to your inquiry, go ahead time me. . . I bet I get back to you quicker than you can say 'Lifes a Beach'!

Guestbook comments from the host:

Our stay at Dan's 2 bedroom condo/Anna Maria Island was great. I have been coming to AMI since the 80's and have stayed at Runaway Bay a handful of times but this was the first time staying at Dan's condo. My family and I loved it. The condo was clean, comfortable and cozy. It had everything we needed for our family and more (lots of beach supplies).

Dan is a wonderful host and great communicator.

This would definitely be a five star rating based on his condo..but we were a little disappointed with pool closing at 8pm. In the past it has been open later and kids always enjoyed swimming in the eve. Us adults enjoyed gathering by the pool at night and relaxing...this wasn't the case this year which was kind of a bummer but we it didn't ruin our stay and we just spent more time on the beach.

AMI is a beautiful island...which one day we hope to be residents of..we will definitely be back and would absolutely recommend Dan's condo if you come to visit here too!


Aug 2017

One bedroom is excellent. Great location. Listing description accurate regarding the location, layout, amenities We have stayed at Runaway Bay once before. Condo is well equipped and attractively decorated. Excellent for couple. Dan is a pleasure to work with and will get back to you immediately with any concerns or needs. Most recommended!


Dec 2016

This is the third time we have stayed in Dan's Florida Condo, and we are already looking forward to staying here again! The property is exactly as listed (yes, the bedrooms are colorful!). Dan is very easy to work with, he gets back to us via text or e mail quite promptly.

We enjoyed our time here, and even had the opportunity to meet Dan.

If you are looking for a place to stay on beautiful AMI, check out Dan's condo. Dan is very accommodating and will work with you.

Thank you for a glorious two week stay!


Nov 2016

Thanks Dan!! We really enjoyed our week in your One-Bedroom condo at Runaway Bay! It's a beautiful, clean, well maintained condo equipped with everything you could possibly need for a great vacation. Having a washer and dryer right in the unit was awesome. The pool was GREAT...large with cool water which was SO refreshing on a hot Florida summer day, and the beach was a quick stroll across the street...we took advantage with long daily morning walks! We fell in love with the quaint Bradenton Beach/Anna Maria Island area with the great restaurants and fun entertainment, cute little shops, bike rentals, beautiful sunsets on the beach, etc., so much that we are actually considering retiring there next year....perhaps we will be neighbors! Thanks again Dan....you were great to work with!!! Sue and Mark, Canfield, OH


Aug 2016

CONDO WAS CLEAN, AND COMFORTABLE AND NICELY DECORATED.MY FAMILY AND I HAD SUCH A GREAT TIME, KITCHEN WAS STOCKED WELL. DAN WAS ALWAYS GREAT AND EASY TO CONTACT. MY FAMILY AND I LOVED THE BEACH AND THE ISLAND, WE WILL BE BOOKING SOON FOR OUR NEXT VACATION.


Aug 2016

Very nice and functional flat just a short walk to a fantastic beach and close to restaurants. We were 2 adults and 1 child age 12 and this was just what we needed. The beds are fantastic - wanted to take them with us :)

Dan is unbelievably quick to respond to any questions we had and all the rental information and practical information was super. We highly recommend this :)

Great location

This is the first time we stayed at Dans Florida Condos. The condos were right across the street from the private beach access, and I could not have asked for a cleaner unit. Pictures tell the whole story. Thanks for everything Dan!

Owner response
