Marbella Villas on Anna Maria Island: Your Beachfront Bradenton Beach Getaway
If you are dreaming of a beachfront stay on Anna Maria Island with Gulf views, a pool, and a walkable location, Marbella Villas in Bradenton Beach by AMI Locals should be on your list. This Gulf-front condo community is home to 11 individually designed vacation rentals, all managed by AMI Locals, and sits just moments from vibrant Bridge Street.
In this guide, we will walk through what makes Marbella special, the different villas available, and the best things to do nearby so you can start planning your stay.
What makes Marbella Villas special
Beachfront setting
Marbella sits directly on the beach, so you can slip out in flip-flops for sunrise walks, shelling, or sunset watching without ever moving your car.
Resort-style amenities with a low-key feel
Guests enjoy a heated community pool, spa, outdoor BBQ areas, outdoor showers, and easy pathways to the sand. Many condos feature screened-in lanais or balconies with sweeping Gulf vistas, perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktails.
Walkable and trolley-friendly
Historic Bridge Street is just a short stroll away, offering waterfront restaurants, ice cream, boutiques, and live music. The free Anna Maria Island trolley stops nearby, making it simple to explore the rest of the island without driving.
The Marbella Villas collection
Marbella offers a mix of 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom condos, plus an impressive Gulf-front penthouse, ideal for families, couples, and groups.
2-bedroom beachfront condos
Perfect for couples, small families, or a friends’ getaway, our 2-bedroom villas (like Marbella Villas 3, 8, 10, 11, and 12) feature king or queen suites, additional guest rooms with twin or queen beds, and two full bathrooms. Many include screened balconies, water views, and easy access to the pool and beach.
3-bedroom condos for families and groups
Traveling with a larger crew? Marbella Villas 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6 offer three bedrooms, two baths, and thoughtful sleeping arrangements such as bunk rooms and multiple king beds. These condos are ideal for multi-gen families or two families traveling together, with open living areas and screened lanais for gathering.
Marbella Villa Penthouse
For a truly elevated stay, the Marbella Villa Penthouse pairs panoramic Gulf views with three bedrooms, three and a half baths, and two screened balconies. With king suites, a bunk room, and a spacious open concept living area, it is a showpiece home for special occasions or longer stays.
