Runaway Bay is a lovely vacation resort on beautiful grounds between 
the Gulf of Mexico and Sarasota Bay.  Our particular unit was 
recently totally renovated with new tile floors, new kitchen and 
baths and decorator furnished in current "beach chic".  There is a 
bay view from out on the lanai as well as a small lake/lagoon view 
from the lanai and master bedroom.   

We are conveniently located almost halfway between Sarasota and St. 
Petersburg (roughly 20 minutes to each).  The island of Anna maria 
is 
unique in having no high-rise buildings and offering an old Florida 
feel.  Yet, you can enjoy some of the areas best restaurants and 
tropical bars within walking distance of the condo.

In addition, Runaway Bay has a beautiful, large heated swimming pool 
(the largest on the island), a tennis court, recreation room, sauna, 
exercise equipment, shuffleboard and a fishing pier.  And of course, 
a beautiful beach only steps away for early morning walks, 
afternoons 
of sun and surf and some of the most beautiful sunsets you'll ever 
see. 

Our condo offers a spacious 2 bedroom, 2 bath floor plan.  There is 
a 
king bed in the master bedroom and 2 twins in the other.  An 
inflatable queen air mattress is also available in the unit.  Fully 
furnished in an appealing beach theme, you will have everything you 
need for a most enjoyable stay.  We have cable TV (3 including 2 
small TV's in each bedroom), a DVD and CD player/AM,FM radio, a 
washer/dryer in the unit and a lovely balcony with appealing view. 

Runaway Bay is just across the street from a beautiful, sandy 
beach.  
The heated pool is the largest on the island with an "island feel" 
from the striped umbrellas and chairs.  Lighted tennis court, 
private 
fishing dock and exercise room.  Walk or take the trolley, which 
stops right in front of Runaway Bay, to the island's many 
restaurants.  Sarasota, St. Petersburg and Tampa are only short 
drives away.  We have compiled a list, which we will gladly furnish 
for you, of our favorite restaurants, watering holes, beaches and 
things to see and do in the area.
