We stayed for a week and had the best experience ever on Anna Maria Island...they give you lots of options and amenities which makes for a wonderful time...I can say this because we have stayed at other places on the island over the years but nothing compares to the rod and reel resort,,,planning on going back this year

We are so lucky we found this gem of a property! Our kids LOVE the beach and this resort was absolutely perfect! The room and entire place was super clean and the kids loved the huge pool! The rod and reel pier was very convenient-we didn’t even have to leave the entire weekend nor did we want to! We met Ty who was was super nice and helpful answering all our questions in between keeping the beach and grounds clean. We will definitely be back as we have already been searching our calendars for dates for our next beach trip to Rod and Reel Resort! Thank you so much!

If you have the opportunity to reserve your stay at The Rod & Reel Resort, do it! You will have had made the best decision. This place is CLEAN. Sparkling clean in fact. We were fortunate enough to go on a weekend when we shared the resort with a handful of people, so the pool/beach/deck were basically ours. Where else can you get that? The guests sharing the resort were all friendly, kind and courteous. The place is lush, beautiful, and modern. Top of the line. Cannot wait to return!

Just returning back to reality after a week long stay at Rod and Reel Resort. In short, our stay was exceptional. We traveled with our young kids and the resort was absolutely perfect for a family vacation. The grounds are pristine--both from a cleanliness and aesthetic point of view. The rooms had just what we needed for a comfortable week--the bunk bed room was a bonus to setup the kids in while the main area could accommodate tv watching later into the evening. We were worried the kitchen was not a 'full size' kitchen, but it worked perfectly. The fridge was much large than expected and there was ample storage. We used the kayaks daily and appreciated not having to go through the hassle of a rental company. One small thing we appreciated the most---clean, new beach towels to use daily! Rod and Reel truly made everything so easy. Ty was incredibly personable and helpful, answering our many questions and going out of his way to check in on each guest's stay. We cannot wait to return, as this is certain to be a favorite vacation spot for our family.

This was our first time to Anna Maria and the resort made our experience absolutely amazing. Ty (property manager) was very heplful with any questions or concerns we had. The owner is very responsive. Cant say enough about the location and amenities. Room was great for our family of 5! Great sunrises and sunsets. Took the kayaks out to watch sunset over bean point. Beach toys, paddleboards, bikes, hot tub, ping pong and pool were a big hit with our kids. Great food at the rod and reel restaurant. Whats not to love about this place!!!! Book it and you wont regret it!
