Beach Across Street! 2BR Pool, Fully Loaded

Your island escape with room to breathe. Runaway Bay 250 is a completely updated two-bedroom, two-bath second-floor condo in northern Bradenton Beach where families find their rhythm and couples discover their happy place. With the Gulf directly across the street, a large pool steps from your door, and everything you need already packed for the beach, this is Anna Maria Island living at its most comfortable and convenient.

Why Families Return Year After Year
Guests have called Runaway Bay 250 their "home away from home," booking it year after year—some for over a decade. The condo has everything already thought of: beach chairs, floats, noodles, a beach wagon to haul it all, games and cards for rainy days, and a kitchen so well-stocked guests make Christmas dinner here. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and spacious living areas that never feel crowded. As one returning guest said: "This is the BEST place we've ever stayed at on Anna Maria Island in all the years we've been coming!"

Beach Ready from Day One
Everything you need for beach and pool time is already here. Beach chairs and beach towels are provided—no need to pack or rent. Additional beach equipment including floats, noodles, toys, and more is available to rent through our digital property guidebook. Just grab what you need and cross the street via the lighted crosswalk to amazing beach access.

The Runaway Bay Advantage
Runaway Bay is one of Anna Maria Island's most beloved complexes. The large pool is perfect for families and rarely crowded. The free island trolley stops right at the entrance—you could easily not drive at all during your stay. BBQ grilling stations, pickle ball courts, workout room, and fishing dock complete the experience. The location in northern Bradenton Beach puts you close to Bridge Street's restaurants and shops while maintaining peaceful, residential tranquility.

Inside the Condo
The fully equipped kitchen shines with full-size appliances, Keurig coffee maker, and exceptional cookware.

Full-size washer and dryer in unit. Both bathrooms feature walk-in showers. King bed in primary bedroom, queen and twin in guest bedroom—sleeps five comfortably.

Runaway Bay Vaca

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: 250 Runaway Bay met our needs. Great location across the street from the beach. Well stocked beach supplies. Kitchen supplies (cups, plates, bowls, utensils, etc) were well stocked. Decent pool. Comfortable furniture. Supplies (paper products, etc) provided were lacking compared to other rentals I have had. Unit had a musty smell to it.

Best stay on the island!

We have stayed many times on the island but this was by far our favorite! The location was perfect for us and the condo was above expectations! We had a couple of questions before we arrived and the owners were quick to respond and super helpful. When we arrived, we found a condo full of everything we needed. There was plenty of beach chairs, fishing buckets, beach toys, balls & a wagon to pull it all. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook all week. Also worth noting everything was good quality, not flimsy as found in other rentals. The coffee machine is a keurig for planning purposes. The sitting area and bedrooms were spacious. The outdoor area was peaceful. We would have liked to use it more but it was so hot! The beach was about a 5 minute walk with public access right across the street from the complex. We used the pool & pickle ball court too. The fishing dock was neat to watch the birds & other wildlife at all hours of the day. I would highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to visit the island! We hope to return back next year!

Cute and comfortable condo

The location was superb and it was nicely updated. A little disappointed with the lanai - very small and a bit smelly due to the mangroves. Other than that, it hit all of the desires for a rental.

Reviewer Comments: We stayed in runaway the 3 weeks before, and had to find another condo in the same complex, luckily we found 250. We felt at home straight away it had the feel of living in the jungle with the view on the patio backing onto the river, with palm trees beautiful plants and trees for privacy. We enjoyed several of the events they has planned within the complex.The pancake breakfast was yummy. We also loved how close it was to town, the beach the bus stop. The pool area was great 👍. Last but not least you can’t forget to mention the gorgeous sunsets 🌅.
