We couldn't have had a better stay. Pirates' Den is one block from the beach and handy to great restaurants, markets, and all of the activities on Anna Maria Island. Our bungalow was nicely decorated, comfortable, cool, and quiet, and the fact that the unit wasn't brand new was part of its charm. The grounds are nicely landscaped, and the... More

We were a family of 4 (baby/toddler) and stayed in apt #1 (two bedroom)in Nov/Dec. We paid approx $110 a night for our accommodation and we stayed for over a week. The place is older but kept clean. It is walking distance, about 5 minutes, to Publix grocery and a 3 minute walk to a beach with a public path.... More

AMPD will be our new go to spot for our getaways. Maree squeezed our family of 4 in at the last minute putting us in Apartment 3 which is a gorgeous 2 BR/2BA unit. She even allowed us to bring our Shorkie after our boarding plans fell thru. She is a sweetheart and was very accommodating and a big help... More

Great location, price, atmosphere, property owner. Just across the quiet street to the beach we watched dolphines then walked down the beach to the cafe for coffee in the morn and 1 night for dinner to watch a beautiful sunset. Our cottage was spotless and very comfortable. We had our own private patio where we ate dinner that we fixed... More

Just returned for my fourth visit to the Pirates Den. Each year when I return to Anna Maria Island there is no doubt about where we will stay, Apt 4 at the Pirates Den. The place is clean, comfy and relaxing; the location can't be beat. Straight across the road is the beach, which is a quieter area of the... More

This is most definitely our favorite destination for a family beach vacation. It has the perfect location just a short stroll to the beach with shopping and restaurants all within walking distance. Pirates Den has the old traditional Florida feel and the apartments are always spotless. The owners Maree and Dave and their son Douglas always provide the best welcome... More

Having spent a week at Easter 2012 at Pirates Den on Anna Maria Island it has not lost it's appeal. This is the seventh year running we have spent time there with family. The accommodation is just what you need for a beach holiday and its proximity to the beach is ideal, especially with young children. The owners are very... More

Just spent 6 days at The Pirates Den and loved every minute of it... very cozy, clean and quiet. We stayed in Apt #2 upstairs and the balcony overlooked the pool and you could see the ocean. While they are not right on the beach, just a quick walk and you are there! Everyone was very nice and since I... More

The Location was nice, but the grounds where in bad shape such as broken lawn chairs and ply wood stacked every where. The Pool area very small with so many chairs that you could not get through. Cabins very clean, with tatal lack of T. Paper. We had to ASK for a roll. We would not go back.
