Anna Maria Island rentals just got a facelift. Mainsail Vacation Rentals is proud to announce that we’ve just opened a brand-new rental location, Mello on the Beach!
This beautiful resort has a unique backstory and top-quality accommodations, so we hope you’ll come to experience it for yourself!
Mello on the Beach History
Mello on the Beach just opened, but its history dates back to 1975. Back then, the Aquarius Beach Resort was the ultimate place to stay on the island. After several years, the property was renovated and expanded, taking on new life as the Anna Maria Island Beach Resort. Unfortunately, the passage of time took its toll on the property.
In 2018, a small group of people decided to purchase the old property and bring it back to life again. The goal to create youthful and fun places to stay in Anna Maria Island would soon be realized. Mello on the Beach is the newest source for AMI accommodations and is hopeful for a long future ahead.
