We have stayed at Anna Maria many times, however, always in a vacation rental home with a private pool for a week. This stay was going to be short and our first stop of a few during the week so renting a house didn't make sense. Not willing to give up the north end, we chose The Rod and Reel Resort. To be honest, we are not "resort people". What a pleasant surprise! We were immediately impressed! Suite 6 was perfect and the amenities couldn't be beat. We used every single one. When we plan our next trip to the island, it will be a tough decision to chose a house or return to The Rod and Reel Resort. Ty is fantastic. No request was too much. He delivered every single time. The hot tub was not working our first night and we let him know. A repairman was there the next morning. You can't go wrong with a stay at The Rod and Reel Resort! Thanks for the memories!

We stayed in Suite 8 and it is gorgeous! The view from inside or on the deck was perfect, even better than it looked online. The resort is terrific - beautiful, very private and quiet. My brother and sister in law have been wintering in Florida for 20+ years and were impressed with the Rod and Reel. The finishes are superior and the beach is right outside the gate, the pool was beautifully lit at night, the kayaks were fun and we rode the bikes to restaurants and all over the island. The pool and hot tub were spotless and refreshing. The Rod and Reel Pier next door had good food and was so entertaining with people fishing all day long. We gravitated to it daily. Suzette was terrific to deal with and Ty & Tanya took great care of us and kept the resort in order, from providing whatever we needed to even raking the beach every day. Anna Maria has loads of great restaurants and is very scenic. It's easy to walk to many places, too. We're coming back to Suite 8 at the Rod and Reel next February.

My Husband & I were asked to join a group of friends last June and we almost had the entire resort for our group alone. One couple in the group has stayed many times and the rest of us were new to this paradise. I fell in love viewing the suites on the website and I immediately contacted Suzette to book. She is just a breath of fresh air to work with. Very sweet, pleasant & patient with my thousand questions as my Husband would say LOL. She will do everything she can to accommodate and is very thorough in covering every detail needed from arrival, during your stay and the check out process. When she said she would be emailing all the confirmation details over that we discussed, she definitely wasn’t kidding. Everything there on one page and I was so thankful. Upon our arrival we were greeted with a big friendly smile from Ty who happened to be out front when our car dropped us off. You definitely need to say hello if you see him around the property. He goes above and beyond to make your stay the best it can be. Our suite was bigger than what we needed but it worked out perfect. It was decorated so bright, everything so nice, very clean which is always a worry. We will be coming back in 2023 to celebrate our 50th Birthday’s and are so looking forward to sharing this amazing resort with our Family & Friends. No place we would rather go to celebrate but RRR. Thank you again Suzette and Ty!!

The Rod and Reel is one of my favorite places to stay! The rooms are super clean and the property is beautiful. The staff is very responsive and accommodating. It's the best of both worlds, fishing on the Bayside of the property and a quick walk to the beautiful beach. I actually stayed two weeks prior to this visit, with a friend, and had to come back and bring my kids. The kids loved the use of the bikes, kayaks and pool. Can't wait to return!!

This resort is a very secure resort. Very private. You need a code to enter so no one from the street can just walk in. The rooms were very modern and very lovely decorated. The kitchenette was perfect for eating in. The beds were very comfortable and the unit was very spacious for 4. Suzette, the owner, was very nice and easy to work with. The staff at the resort was very kind and helpful. The Rod & Reel Pier and Restaurant was so convenient. I can't wait to go back.
