This was our third stay in Suite 8 and it was wonderful, as usual. The kitchen and deck are incredible - we spend a lot of time on the expansive deck which is just feet from the water. The pool is great and is colorfully lit at night. The other guests have been extremely friendly and easy to talk with. We use the bikes to ride all over and enjoy the kayaks. I may try to paddle board next time. The Rod and Reel Pier is steps away and we spend time over there every day, watching the fishing and eating upstairs. We've booked two more stays over the winter and can't wait to go back.

This is our second stay at the Rod and Reel Resort. We loved the location, the pool, the cleanliness of the resort and it had all of the amenities we were looking for. A great place to relax and enjoy the surroundings of Anna Maria Island. We are looking forward to our return to this resort in the near future!

We enjoyed walking the white powder beach at Bean Point, riding our bikes around the island and stopping for a home made donut at The Donut Experiment on Pine Ave. The resort is beautiful & immaculately maintained! It’s quiet within the resort – you can be private or interact socially with the other guests. We enjoyed our host/manager Fritz immensely as well as Tyler – both were very accommodating. Had the most beautiful weather ? wish we were back!!

A great place to stay right on the water, with nice amenities, clean rooms and kitchenette, and pool and hot tub. Good restaurant close by on the dock where you can rent poles to fish. Suzette, the owner, is very pleasant to deal with and goes above and beyond to ensure you have a nice experience.

We traveled to Anna Maria Island for the first time this year and brought 2 (4,7) of our 3 kids. Stayed 5 nights in Suite 3 and can not say enough good things about this place. The concept of just 8 suites was really neat and we enjoyed resort life without all craze of resort size. There was never a rush to grab a seat at the pool/bar area and we got to meet some really cool families that were also staying there. Everyone respects the resort and treats the place like a one big shared home. There are plenty of kayaks, paddle boards, pool floats & chairs for guests and from what we experienced, everyone is willing to share even their own pool & beach toys. We left everything we bought at the pool for the next family to use because we loved that idea. Ty is the property manager and does a great job making sure everyone is taken care of. Suzette the owner was a gem to work with and I was understanding of anything we asked of her and did her best to accommodate. The location is a short walk and even shorter drive to the beautiful Bean Point Beach. Dining and shops are just a couple miles away and can be easily accessed by foot, bike or car. I recommend dining at the Waterfront, which is just down the street and if you're looking for some great lunch, check out the Rod & Reel pier. If you're planning on grabbing a couple cocktails too, the bar downstairs has prices you wouldn't believe. We also had a blast renting a couple poles from said Pier and did a little fishing with kids. We'll definitely be back with the whole family!
