Premier North End Anna Maria Beach House - Private Pool, Gulf Views, Walk to Beach, Shops & Dining.
Experience the best of Anna Maria Island from this beautifully updated North End beach house, ideally located just a short walk from the Gulf's white-sand beaches and the shops, restaurants and island charm of Anna Maria.
With 4 bedrooms plus a sleeping loft, 3.5 bathrooms, a private heated pool, tropical Tiki bar, multiple covered decks, Gulf and sunset views, eight bicycles and a beautifully remodeled main living area, this home offers everything you need for an unforgettable island getaway.
Spend the morning walking to the beach, bike into town for lunch or shopping, relax by your private pool in the afternoon, and finish the day with cocktails and a Gulf Coast sunset from the veranda.
Everything You Need for the Beach
Beach days couldn't be easier. The home includes 8 bicycles, beach wagon, chairs, umbrellas, towels, coolers, beach toys, pool floats and fishing poles. A commercial ice maker in the garage makes filling the coolers before heading to the beach effortless.
Simply load the wagon and make the short walk to the Cypress Avenue public beach access.
Your Private Backyard Retreat
After the beach, come home to your own tropical escape. Relax in the heated private pool, enjoy a drink beneath the Tiki bar, play ping pong or grill dinner poolside.
The resurfaced pool, new limestone pavers, tropical landscaping and LED evening lighting create a wonderful setting for long afternoons and relaxed evenings outdoors.
Beautiful Coastal Living
The bright, open main living level is designed for gathering. The spacious family room provides plenty of room for movie nights and games, while the completely remodeled kitchen features new cabinetry, appliances and quartz countertops.
The expanded dining area seats six, with additional kitchen counter seating for four. Covered outdoor dining provides another option for meals overlooking the pool.
The Best of Anna Maria at Your Doorstep
One of the home's greatest advantages is its walkable North End location. Leave the car behind and walk or bike to the beach, local shops and favorite Anna Maria restaurants.
The island's free trolley is also nearby, making it easy to explore all seven miles of Anna Maria Island, from Anna Maria to Holmes Beach and Bradenton Beach.

We stayed in Yellowbird for a week in Oct 2026 and it was beautiful! There were six adults (three couples) and everyone had adequate space so we didn’t feel cramped. The common areas were spacious for eating and watching tv. We enjoyed the pool area and the ping pong table. The location was perfect for access to the beach as well as restaurants and shops. Would definitely rent this property again for future AMI visits.
Great AMI north end home!

Our family of 5 really enjoyed staying at the Yellowbird in Oct of 2026. What we loved:
- Awesome location - walking distance to The Sandbar, North End Cafe, and all the Pine Ave shops.
- Clean and well maintained - beds, pillows, and seating are all of high quality and clean. Owners provided plenty of towels, extra pillows, and blankets (this is such a simple thing that makes a big difference IMO).
- Spacious kitchen, easy to use appliances.
- Laundry!
- Back deck is covered and protected from the wind. It was a perfect place to sit at any time of day.
- Pool is private and comfortable.
- AMI is generally an easy beach vacation. It's close to several airports, driveable, and although you can rent a golf cart for fun to get around the island you really don't need to. The north end of the island is entirely walkable, and the trolley gets you farther south where the grocery is. Publix also delivers!
The rental company is communicative and a pleasure. We will definitely come back!

The house was everything and more than expected! From all the beach chairs, wagons, cooler, ice machine, to the elevator, just the overall house was fantastic! Short walk to the beach nightly swims in the pool and hanging out at the tiki! Would definitely rent this house again and definitely from Anna Maria life vacation rentals. Very accommodating and very easy to rent from. I recommend them highly.

Great location! While we have visited Anna Maria Island for many years, this is the first time we have stayed on the north end. The house is so close to the beach we could relax to the sound of the waves when lounging on the back porch. We enjoyed early morning walks on the beach to the point each day and were even privileged to witness a sea turtle finish nesting and return to the sea. Pine Ave is a short walk away. The house was very comfortable and well stocked. Our 12 year old loved sleeping in the loft. Overall we had a great stay.
A great vacation home!

Had everything we needed for a a great week, chairs for the beach along with an umbrella and plenty of balls and beach toys. The outside shower was used a lot & a great way to rinse off when coming in from the beach. The house had everything we needed & plenty of room for everyone, will definitely be looking to stay here again.

Yellow Bird is a very comfortable house! We came down for a week. 7 adults and an 18 month old. The house was roomy with a large common room adjoining the kitchen. Very private due to clever planting. Large, airy porches. Various levels allowed us to be together or separate. The pool/lanai area was really nice. Outdoor shower!! Huge garages! A very short walk to the magnificent beach. We were delighted!!

Fabulous Experience at Yellowbird I threw a dart when picking AMI and this house, and I hit a bullseye!!! The house was fantastic, perfect for our family of 5 (2 adults 3 children 8, 10, 11). They each had their own rooms upstairs plus the bonus loft room to hang out in. The master on the main was huge with tons of closet space. We personally thought this house was equipped with EVERYTHING. We did not expect an industrial air pump for floats and filling bike tires or the industrial ice maker in the garage. The two garages were enormous. It fit my suburban no problem. The pool and deck area were great for after a day at the beach. There was an outdoor shower for rinsing off sand and a fan in the tiki bar area which kept the area cool in the heat. There were beach chairs, carts, bikes, sand toys galore. We could not have been happier with this choice and our week. We will definitely be coming back for sure!

Great Space and Location! We spent our holiday at the house and really loved the house! We really liked the layout where we could all get together in the living area or retreat to our bedrooms if we needed some "me" time! Each of our 3 kids had their own room (one was in the loft and loved it!) and each of the couples had a spacious room with an ensuite bathroom. The house was in a great location-close to everything; beach, restaurants, shops, etc. The view from the upstairs balcony was amazing! Perfect spot for us and we plan on revisiting for future vacations!

Perfect house for relaxing vacation We absolutely loved this house and it’s location. House was very clean, had everything we could possibly need. We appreciated good quality firm mattresses. Swimming pool was not really big but we had a lot of fun every day in it. Shot walk to the beach was a big plus. In garage we found everything we need for the beach. We spend a lot of time on the balcony, so cozy, relaxing, super dreamy. View on the beach and sunset was stunning! - Stay Dates - Oct 19 - Oct 26, 2021

Fantastic home We had a great time at Yellow Bird. Location was fantastic. So close to the beach and Pine Street. We knew there was a small water view from an upper balcony but it was actually a really great view of the ocean. The house has a great layout with master on first floor and 3 bedrooms upstairs. One of the bedrooms is classified as an office with a murphy bed but it's a really nice bedroom with the best view. Bathrooms are all large. There are 3 balconies, 2 in back and 1 on front porch. Pool is shaded, like most houses on AMI, but that was nice as the weather was very warm. Would definitely stay in this house again. - Stay Dates - Oct 9 - Oct 16, 2021

We enjoyed a one-week stay at Yellowbird. It was an awesome house....plenty of room and a great kitchen and grill. The palapa outside by the grill was where we spent most evenings. The pool was an additional plus. Beds were comfy. Rooms were clean and allowed for privacy. Bathrooms were very nice. Washer/dryer worked well. The ice machine on the ground level was FABULOUS...plenty of ice day or night, and to stock the cooler to take to the beach. Elevator was a big help when stocking the kitchen with food for a week. All of the verandas were wonderful. We loved having the wagon to carry the beach gear....and this house provided TONS of stuff to enjoy at the beach. The bikes were great, too....another plus for our family's entertainment. It's obvious that the owners/management company wanted to make sure the guests had everything they needed and MORE. Another outstanding feature was the location....just a short walk to the beach and to nearby eateries. One of the fans on the veranda lost a blade in the wind, and a serviceman came out immediately to fix it. We also had a small issue with the refrigerator ice-maker, and once again the service call was handled very quickly. This says a lot about the management of this rental....service is everything!! We have already decided as a family to book Yellowbird the next time we plan a beach family reunion. And we might make this reunion at Yellowbird an annual event....it was SUPER GREAT!!

Perfect stay The property was and had everything we could have asked for. We had 7 total in our party ages 8-72 and we all had space and plenty to entertain us. We encountered zero mosquitos so that wasn’t a problem at all. Everything was just perfect- beautiful views from the balconies, a quick walk to the beach and morning bike rides. 100% would return again - thanks for sharing your space with us! - Stay Dates - May 15 - 22, 2021

We couldn't have chosen a better rental house/location. There were so many extras provided that you would not get elsewhere. These included the elevator that assisted with bringing luggage and groceries upstairs, the large ice maker for filling up your cooler for the beach, AND the beach umbrellas, toys, wagon, floats, etc. The swimming pool and surrounding areas was great for relaxing after a day at the beach. This house was beautiful and a very short walk to the beach. We will definitely be back to AMI and will be staying at the beautiful Yellow Bird home. - Stay Dates - May 8 - 15, 2021

The house was great! Plenty of space for our two families. Pool was nice and well maintained. Bikes were a huge plus. Nice views of the gulf from the balcony. This is not a negative, but we found it odd that not all bedrooms had a TV. Would rent this home again!
