Get away from it all at the Anna Maria Island Dream Inn. Our resort is located just steps away from the Gulf’s most beautiful sandy beach. You can listen to the soft sounds of the waves gently lapping the shore from your room. Maybe you will see dolphins playfully rolling or jumping out of the water. As the day turns into dusk, watch the most magnificent sunset light the darkening sky.

Spend your days swimming in the Gulf, collecting shells along the surf, sunbathing on the sun-deck, lounging by the pool, kicking the sand along the beach or just cruising the beautiful Island. Anna Maria Island has so much to offer: shopping, fine dining, snorkeling, kayaking, bicycle rentals, boating, and world class fishing are all just minutes away.

Welcome to paradise!

The Dream Inn is located right on the Gulf of Mexico shore. Our beach features beautiful fine sand, perfect for sand castles and foot prints. You can expect warm water temperatures and spectacular sunsets.

When you are not hard at work relaxing on our beautiful beach or using our heated pool, you may actually want to explore the island. There is a free trolley that (schedule PDF) runs the length of Anna Maria Island. The trolley stops right in front of the Dream Inn. You’ll find our island is blessed with wonderful restaurants, pubs and shopping, as well as opportunities for boating, fishing, sailing, kayaking, snorkeling, biking, hiking and many other activities. We have a rack full of brochures in our office and our staff can make recommendations.

One of the nicest ways to spend an evening is to enjoy sunset dining at the waterfront Beach House and Sandbar restaurants.

The Anna Maria Pier and Bridge Street are both worth a visit.
