The idyllic city of Anna Maria lies in Manatee County and occupies the northern part of its namesake island, Anna Maria Island. People who visited Anna Maria said the blissful escape is as good as the Bahamas.
According to some historians, the city was named because of the strong winds in the area as the German term for wind is “Maria.” However, in reality, it was the former Tampa mayor, Madison Post, who named the island for his wife, Maria, and his sister-in-law, Anna. In the early 1900s, the area was developed by a real estate developer from St. Petersburg, Charles Roser.
Currently, the media homes for a sale price of Anna Maria is $544,900 and its median rent is $1,074. The price ranges from $325,000 for 2-bedroom condos and, currently, the most expensive property on sale is a 3-bed, 3-bath house for $5,495,000.
A beautiful town is a perfect place for water lovers. The clear waters in the white-sand beaches are great for cooling off in the balmy summers. The place is also teeming with wildlife. In the evening, huge birds dive-bomb into the water to fish. Visitors who go on cruises also often see schools of dolphin swimming off into the waters.
Anna Maria is the ideal place to call home and live a beach life.
