Oceanfront Homes for Sale in Bradenton and Anna Maria Island, FL

The city of Bradenton sits inland on the Manatee River, so the Gulf-front homes most buyers mean when they say "Bradenton oceanfront" are on Anna Maria Island, a barrier island in Manatee County. The island has three cities, Anna Maria, Holmes Beach, and Bradenton Beach. This page shows homes and condos that the MLS lists as beach front or Gulf front in those three cities, updated from the MLS throughout the day.

What to know about Anna Maria Island

  • Three island cities: Anna Maria, Holmes Beach, and Bradenton Beach each have their own city rules and permitting, so check the rules for the exact address.
  • The 2024 storms: Hurricanes Helene and Milton damaged homes, businesses, and city assets throughout the island's cities. Ask any seller about storm damage, repairs, permits, and any substantial damage determination for the property.
  • Flood and coastal rules: Gulf-front property is subject to FEMA flood rules and, for lots near the beach, the state's Coastal Construction Control Line.

Before you buy Gulf-front on the island

  • Flood zone and elevation: Ask for the flood zone, the elevation certificate, and any substantial damage or substantial improvement determination.
  • Coastal Construction Control Line (CCCL): Florida law requires the seller of property partly or totally seaward of the CCCL to give the buyer an affidavit or survey showing where the line falls, along with a coastal property disclosure.
  • Condo documents: For condo buildings of three stories or more, review the milestone inspection summary, the Structural Integrity Reserve Study, the budget, and any planned special assessments.
  • Insurance: Get wind and flood quotes before your contract deadlines, because cost and availability can change what a property really costs to own.
