Romantic Activities for Couples on Anna Maria Island
Dreaming of a romantic escape where you can fully immerse yourself in the tropical island lifestyle? Well good news, you don’t need to travel too far—just make it down to the sunshine state, and you’ll find the perfect spot for the ultimate romantic beachside getaway: Anna Maria Island! Surrounded by breathtaking scenery, sugar-white sand, and vibrant blue-green water that almost seems unreal, our charming island creates an ideal destination for a romantic trip away and offers an array of activities that can be enjoyed by two. The tropical setting creates a blissful reprieve from the ordinary nature of daily life, giving your vacation an exotic feel of a remote locale. Shape the days exactly the way you want, whether it’s lounging by your private pool or hitting the best surfing spots on the island, and nights discovering the best of local dining and cuddling up at your vacation villa. With so much to do and such stunning natural beauty, Anna Maria Island is an amazing place for a flawless romantic vacation!
Maybe you and your partner are fans of long beach-to-beach walks, or love to cruise coastal roads and discover the area by convertible—whatever your style, you’ll find there’s a multitude of ways to soak up the island’s tropical landscape and familiarize yourself with all the popular spots. We suggest renting a bike from a local shop and taking a day to ride along the coast and discover the quaint back streets of the island, from Anna Maria down to Bradenton Beach—you'll notice right away that it’s a favorite pastime of locals and visitors alike! If you want to discover the area from the sea, reserving a snorkeling tour is always a great idea, and many local companies are willing to do private excursions for two! For the ultimate romantic experience, book a surprise sunset dinner cruise, where you can drink in one another’s presence with a fine-cooked meal amongst a gorgeous backdrop of the Sarasota Bay.
Pamper Yourself with a Couple’s Spa Treatment
From couple's massages to dual pedicure treatments, you’ll find no shortage of ways to pamper yourself when you’re on your romantic Anna Maria Island vacation. Stretching down from Anna Maria to Bradenton Beach, you’ll find a selection of spa and wellness centers dotted along the way, offering everything from organic facials to couple’s massages in private huts on the beach. Of course, you can always create your own luxurious spa day at your private vacation rental, as some of our properties offer spa-like bathrooms with oversized tubs. With upscale perks like private pools, your own personal jacuzzi, and gorgeous outdoor areas, it’s easy to feel like you’re at a resort for the day when you’re just spending time at your vacation rental!
If you’re searching for a restaurant with a romantic ambiance, you’re in luck, because Anna Maria Island has several spots that fit the bill, along with quaint casual lunch joints that boast upscale menus of freshly caught seafood. For a quick daytime affair stop by the Rod and Reel Pier, where the restaurant is situated at the end of the pier and almost entirely surrounded by a shimmering blanket of turquoise water. They also offer a breakfast menu for the early birds, and amongst the waves it can be a lovely way to kick off the day. For inspired beachside dining, be sure to make reservations at the Beach House Restaurant down in Bradenton Beach, where you can dine on the sand on their patio, and feast on the fruits of the sea. If you need a low-key idea that doesn’t sacrifice on a beautiful yet intimate setting, pack a gourmet picnic lunch to enjoy at a secluded beach spot!
Beachy Rentals Made for a Romantic Getaway
There’s no question that the highlight of the island is our array of amazing beaches, from the northern tip of Bean Point all the way to the end of Coquina Beach—both on the gulf, and bay side!
