About this cottage rental
The Ballyhoo is a ground floor cottage located on Bean Point at the very tip of Anna Maria Island. Around the corner, (200 feet away) is the Rod and Reel Pier and beach. A classic 1940s old Florida fishing pier. The pier is an excellent place to see all our local wildlife, dolphins, herons, pelicans, and if you are lucky, maybe a manatee. The pier offers some of the best fishing on the island. A family friendly place with very good food and drink. With panoramic views of Tampa Bay, the Skyway, Egmont Key and civil war era lighthouse, it's not to be missed. Take one our provided bikes or walk to nearby historic Pine Ave. where you'll find your choice of 12 restaurants, shops, art galleries and Roser Church built in 1913 by the inventor of the Fig Newton. While on Pine Ave. don't forget to visit the Anna Maria City Jail and the Anna Maria City Pier. At the City Pier you will find a free trolley that will take you anywhere on the island and back, trolley leaves approximately every half hour. The Ballyhoo is perfect for weekend getaways, fishing, shelling, or just relaxing and getting away from it all! Everything is included except food, your bathing suit and toothbrush! Come relax with us and have fun!
Ballyhoo, a small baitfish highly prized by local big game fishermen.

We felt so at home and had a great stay! The location is great. I appreciated how clean and well-stocked the Ballyhoo was. We felt very at home. Hope to be back soon! Our 5 year old cried when we left and said he wanted to live there in the house forever!

Description stated that the beach was was 200 feet from the property, which was our primarly destination. It was more like 400 feet to the water that was rocky and mostly private. We had to walked several blocks to get to a beach to lay on.
