Property Description

The MI Happy Place Island Resort (formerly Garden Villas) features new ownership and management with exciting amenities and upgrades that combine to make a beautiful, convenient, and relaxing location even better!

The updated Sand Castle features a brand new kitchen, comfortable beds, luxurious linens and an Island style relaxing decor throughout! It is a two bedroom, one bath unit that sleeps up to six with a king bed, two twins and sleeper sofa. MI Happy Place Island Resort includes a fabulous full size heated pool with a spacious 30 x 40 foot pool deck and a covered grilling area with a gas grill. It's a perfect spot to gather in the evenings after a lazy day at the beach. Every unit offers a variety of beach amenities as well – chairs, wagon, umbrella, and more.

The resort amenities will make your Anna Maria Island vacation relaxing and enjoyable for a quick trip or an extended stay. The lush, beautifully landscaped resort oasis is ideally located close to the beach, and nearby eateries, and shopping. Walk to the Cafe on the Beach, Skinny’s Place, the West Coast Surf Shop, and more. The Island Center Shopping area, also within walking distance, serves all of your shopping needs including groceries, eateries, and specialty shops. If you want to explore more, simply hop on and off the free trolley all day everyday - just across the street. Many Florida attractions, such as Busch Gardens, Mote Marine Lab and Disney World, are within easy driving distance.
For larger groups, this unit can be rented together with the others, so be sure to check out the other three: MI Happy Place Sand Dollar, MI Happy Place Sea Horse, and MI Happy Place Sea Turtle.

For families, groups of friends, or events, the entire resort (MI Happy Place - All Units) is a fantastic option as well. There are a variety of ways to enjoy this amazing property, any of which will almost certainly have you looking forward to coming back again and again!
