Desirable North-End Gem on Canal with Dock, Heated Pool. Clean and Spacious.

Welcome to paradise! Pelican Perch is a spacious, three-bedroom, two-bath house, located on a canal and a quiet cul-de-sac at the desirable "North of Pine" end of Anna Maria Island. At Pelican Perch, you’ll find 3 bedrooms, a large living room, a den with a sofa bed, 2 full baths, a dining room and a fully-equipped kitchen. The house has a very open floor plan and numerous seating and dining areas. The dining room has double doors that open onto a porch with a seating area that overlooks the private, heated pool and canal. There is a master suite with a king bed and adjoining bathroom, one bedroom with 2 twin beds, one bedroom with a queen and a twin bed, and a private bonus room with a queen pullout couch. The house is fully equipped with all the comforts of home including free wifi and five televisions.

Out back, enjoy the large private lanai with a lovely heated pool, an outdoor dining area, a ceiling fan, lounge chairs, a gas grill and a charcoal grill (guests are responsible for charcoal and propane), and a large enclosed outdoor shower with hot/cold water. The private dock also has a floating dock attached to secure your boat for tide changes, as well as counter for preparing fish (refer to daily tide chart for high/low tides to clear bridges). It is a perfect place to launch your kayak, sip your morning coffee, and maybe see a manatee! For your beach enjoyment, there are beach towels, beach chairs, umbrellas, beach toys, and a pushcart.

This clean and comfortable house is centrally located and you do not need a car! The house is a short stroll, bike, boat or golf-cart ride to the Gulf of Mexico's powder-sand beaches, Bayfront Park Beach and two fishing piers - City Pier and Rod & Reel Pier. Rent bikes, kayaks, and golf carts (rental companies deliver for free) or hop on the free trolley or Monkey Bus ($5) and explore the 7-mile-long island.

Evenings are especially beautiful with the soft sound of the birds settling for the night and breathtaking sunsets. You’ll never want to leave!

Fantastic House!
This is the second time we have stayed here! They have made some wonderful upgrades to the house. We love the outdoor shower and the screened in pool! There is plenty of room for our family of 7 to play games and eat together in the evening! We especially enjoyed the charcoal grill. The house is in a fantastic location - easily accessible to everything AMI has to offer by bikes or walking. We look forward to staying here again!

Great spot!
This was our 2nd time in Anna Maria, and this house was great. There were 7 of us, and the house was plenty comfortable. My whole family loved swimming in the pool, fishing and kayaking off the dock, and the short distance to town and beaches. Literally a 4 minute walk to sunrise and 10 minute walk to sunset. Communication with owners and property management company was easy, timely, and thorough. Definitely would recommend for a great family vacation.

Summer in AMI
This house was pretty. It is a little bit older house. The room down stairs ( we called it the pool room) was super hot. We didn’t spend any time in there. However the rest of the house was exactly what we expected. Very clean, a ton of towels, all appliances worked, and had a lot of board games to play. The outside pool area was nice and we loved

Amazing Vacation Property
This is our second year renting this property. We love it! Great space, nice outdoor area with upper deck, pool and of course the dock backing on one of the canals. Our favourite spot to sip our morning coffee while watching the fish jump by. We highly recommend it!!!

Outstanding experience
We had an outstanding experience at Debbie's place. It was spacious and we used the pool and dock quite a bit. The house is a full walk from Pine, and a little further to the beach, so we rented a golf cart for both weeks (at about $400/week). Even though check-in requires picking up actual keys at a property management co, the process was efficient. Debbie was an outstanding host, very responsive, and even left us with a couple fully rigged fishing rods at our request! We highly recommend this property.

Absolutely perfect!
We couldn’t have asked for anything more! The house was very comfortable and exceeded our expectations. The covered pool was very clean and relaxing. We rented a boat for the week and it was very convenient being able to keep it at the house. The location of the house is in a quiet residential area. The week prior to our stay wasn’t booked so we were able to add on extra days with no issues making this vacation exceptional. Highly recommend this property and we can’t wait to come back.

It was a great location for sure with a short walk to almost anywhere on the north side of Island. Pool was great! Dock was perfect for our small boat. However, the house is old and needs a good DEEP cleaning. Doors and walls were dirty. Wouldn’t take much to get spruce it up.

Convenient, quiet location
This home was very conveniently located on a quiet cul-de-sac. We really enjoyed the upper deck seating area and private pool. There are many interesting pieces of artwork and curio in the house that adds a warm feeling to the space. As just a couple staying here, we had more than enough room but also see how this rental could be great for a larger group. Some updates to the appliances and decor would only enhance the appeal of this property. The owner is friendly and interested in your experience being a good one. Check-in and check-out through the property management company was problem free. This was our first visit to Anna Maria Island and the location of this home could not have been better. We were able to walk to both piers, the beach areas and the restaurants and shops very easily.

Something for everyone
We really enjoyed this property! For our fishermen there is the trifecta of the bay, the point and the beach (catch your bait off the dock out back). For our older teen girls the beach, the pool, the shops and the Xbox. For me, mom, the pool, the canal for kayaking to the bay and the downstairs tv room (blessed silence!) Easy biking and walking to all. House is well maintained, clean, great hot water and pressure and easy departure instructions. Communication was excellent! We will be coming back soon!

Excellent property
The only negative thing that I can say about the property was the chairs for the beach are a little worn. That’s full disclosure because I gave the property 5-stars on everything. My family loved everything about the house - the neighborhood, the proximity to the beach, the pool, atmosphere and near-by shops. The pictures of the house do not do it justice. My family is already looking into 2021 to return here. Thank you so much for providing such a wonderful experience for my family!

Nice property-great owners!
We arrived the evening before Tropical Storm/Hurricane Debby, unfortunately. The roads around us completely flooded and we were stuck inside for 2 days. But that's not so bad considering what it could have been. The house is very nice, pool is great. Location is great - 3 blocks to nice beach on bay side. We rented golf carts which helped with getting to the beaches. Had a couple small issues (dining room light not working, no remote for the TV) but the owners were extremely responsive!!! Had the light fixed the next day and a new remote ordered and delivered in just a day or 2. The house was perfect for me, my husband, and our 2 adult sons. We really enjoyed our time here. The responsiveness of the owners cannot be overstated - really appreciated that! I think my main complaint would be the lighting in the house - especially the master bath. Maybe consider adding some lighting but other than that, it was great.

Can't wait to stay here again.
We loved this house. It was clean and ready for us when we arrived. It was a all around great place to stay. The Host provided alot of information about the area and the house. We enjoyed the pool,outside shower,and dock out back. The location was great We could walk to the bay or the gulf in minutes. The host also had alot of beach towels and beach accessories for us to use. My parents who are in there mid 60s like the short walks to the pier in the afternoons, and mornings. The house is in a nice neighborhood, which was a big plus. It was tucked away in the nice neighborhood and still close to alot of the local shops,just a short drive. Like I said, can't wait to stay here again.

Fantastic Property!
We had an excellent stay at this property. Great location on a canal on the North Side of the island. Cottage was great and had everything we needed. Two small areas of opportunities: 1. Replace the charcoal BBQ with a propane one. It will help guests cook meals faster. 2. Review the check in process. Our name was not listed on the envelope containing the keys (the owner's name was listed in error). This translated into quite a bit of confusion and return visits to the agency on the day of check in to get the keys.
