Relaxing getaway
Pros:

Perfect low-key place to relax for a week - great location - incredible beach - nice heated pool - walking distance to bridge street which is a plus because traffic can sometimes be tough- tiki bar steps away - nothing negative to say about this place- why I have come many times from Massachusetts

Location and amazing staff
Pros:

Amazing place at a fantastic location (shops, restaurants) with an amazing staff all around (Shout-out to Noah and Angie). I wish I could keep this place a secret but they deserve to thrive so I raise my glass to them and thank them for the amazing stay. We will be back (yet again).
On day one we strolled onto their gorgeous beach and were greeted by dolphins. On day 2 we visited the North of the island and it sugary powder white beaches ate at a restaurant by the ocean and came back to the hotel at night greeted by an amazing sunset. On day 3 we realized it was sadly time to leave...

Geheimtipp in Anna Maria Island
Pros:

Das Hotel ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man benötigt. Pool, Parkplatz und vieles mehr. Unser Zimmer war modern und sehr sauber. Am wunderschönen Strand stehen kostenlos Liegen und Schirme zur Verfügung. Morgens kann man sich an der Rezeption ein kleines Frühstück abholen. Die Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich. Besonders bei René möchten wir uns für ihre warmherzige Art bedanken. Wir wären gern länger geblieben, denn das Silver Surf ist wirklich ein toller Ort zum Entspannen.

Cons:

Da gab es nichts. Es war alles perfekt.

Best bargain at the best location on the island
Pros:

The rooms were immaculate and had much more room than the pictures show on line. The staff is super friendly and will supply just about anything you need. Location is incredible with your own private beach with beach chairs waiting for us and also some private tiki huts. Beach massage and all kinds of water toy rentals (seadoos, sailboats, surfboards) all right there. Great restaurants and Bridge Street all withing walking distance as well as the free trolley stopping right in front!

Amazing stay at Silver Surf in paradise
Pros:

Stunning location in a beautiful recently remodelled motel. Room ultra clean, modern with all mod cons. Motel provides sun loungers and umbrellas in the beach. Breakfast very nice selection for grab and go. Boiled eggs, fruit, yoghurt, pastries, bagels. Bread to toast. Cream cheese and jam plus juice and hot drinks. Would have preferred it opening earlier as people were waiting before 8am. Ideal location for Wicked Canteena an amazing Mexican 2 blocks away. Also 5-10 min walk to Bridge Street where there are many shops, restaurants and bars with live music. Dolphins close to shore were the holiday highlight. We really enjoyed our stay.
