Anna Maria Island’s noise ordinance aims to ensure citizens can enjoy a peaceful environment. The ordinance applies to all areas of the city, including public and private property, and places of business. It defines noise as any sound that annoys or disturbs a reasonable person of ordinary sensibilities or causes or tends to cause an adverse physical or psychological effect on such reasonable person. The noise ordinance limits the maximum permissible noise levels to: 7 AM–10 PM: 65 decibels: (Consistently shouting in the pool exceeds 65 decibels) 10 PM–7 AM: 50 decibels: (An audible conversation from 50’ or 15 meters away exceeds 50 decibels) The ordinance also prohibits plainly audible noise, which refers to any sound that can be clearly heard by a person using their normal hearing faculties. This means that a person can still be in violation if the noise can be easily heard by responding officers from a distance of 100 feet from the property line. Fines for excessive noise can range from $100 to $1,000. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the house: Internet access ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Dishwasher - Microwave - Refrigerator - Stovetop ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Patio ### Laundry - Dryer - Laundry facilities ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Wheelchair accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near an outlet shopping mall - Near the marina - Near the sea - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Bicycles - Water park - Basketball nearby - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Hunting nearby - Ice skating nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Motor boating nearby - Parasailing nearby - Rafting nearby - Sailing nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Theme park nearby - Water tubing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Bicycles ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/33000000/32160000/32151800/32151771/5459beaa.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cottage on the canal Bradenton - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 147 reviews CA $262 CA $656 total includes taxes & fees Oct 23 - Oct 24 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-23&endDate=2025-10-24&selected=32151771&PinnedHotelID=32151771&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/109000000/108690000/108687000/108686931/2d4c9658.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 3 bedroom canal front home with private heated pool!

However, the house was very dirty, dead cockroaches, dirty walls, doors, couches, pillows, no lights were on, lights not pulled in, clocks not plugged in, door handles broken, doors not shutting, fridge falling apart, plate on floor in hallway loose and very loud when step on it, toilets running and most importantly, falsely advertised with a king bed and heated pool, in which we did not have either outdoor patio great, but cushions moldy. ##### Jennifer H.

It was very clean, check-in was easy. The setting is beautiful and tranquil, the view from the pool down the canal is stunning. This home is very spacious and the remodeled kitchen is beautiful and very functional. Bathrooms are also updated. We would suggest the host provide more basics in the kitchen, like salt and pepper. Also cleaning supplies would be appreciated. We were there for a month and so we bought our own. Would be nice if these were provided. Only negatives were the beds were hard and if that bothers you think about it. Also, there were bikes that were available but only one was in working order. We were disappointed because we definitely would have used them if they worked. ##### Martha E. Stayed 26 nights in Jan 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Charlene J. Oct 28, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Disappointed We spent 10 days at the Salty Sea Life. The house is in a great location, a short drive to Anna Maria Island, and a short walk to a local restaurant/tiki bar called the Clam Factory. Unfortunately, we had some issues in the house that were not able to be resolved during our stay. The light switch for the ceiling light/fan in one bedroom didn’t work. There were a lot of palmetto bugs/roaches. The bugs were predominantly in the bathrooms and occasionally in the bedrooms and living room. Thankfully, they were never in the kitchen, but we encountered multiple bugs of various sizes daily. We never entered a room without scanning the floor first and weren’t comfortable walking around barefoot. The rental agency was planning to have a pest control company treat the home after we left. It would have been a 5-star stay without the bugs. We loved the open layout of the house and the washer/dryer. The screened-in patio and the pool overlooking the canal were very enjoyable as well. ##### Charlene J. Stayed 10 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mike Y. Jan 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful location close to AMI Check-in was super easy, our code was ready at 4. We loved the openness of the house! You could look straight through from the front living area to the canal out back. The screened patio was great in the evening for grilling and breakfast in the mornings. Location was GREAT, if you stay here do check out the Cortez Clam Factory at the entry to the neighborhood, easily walkable. A couple things I want to point out, the beds are really firm (like most) and pillows are not the best. Kitchen is LARGE and could be layed out better, we cooked almost daily while here. We found quite a few dead bugs on around the edges of the floors when we arrived which tells me that the cleaning crew wasn't there that day or they didn't do a thorough job. Not the worst thing but didn't expect to find so many of them. The listing doesn't mention this (or at least I didn't see it) but the pool is not heated, this was a huge bummer because it was a bit colder than normal so we couldn't use the pool because the water was VERY cold. One last thing, being on the canal is nice, but the current and wind was blowing garbage to our end so it wasn't great to look at and I definitely wouldn't fish there, even catch and release. ##### Mike Y.
