Resort Reviews for Umbrella Beach Resort

Resort is beautifully maintained, spacious and peacefull. Very close to the gorgeous white sand Holmes Beach on the Gulf of Mexico and conviently located near shopping and a variety of dining choices. Anna Maria Island has old Florida charm. The resort has daily planned activities for adults and children and is affiliated with two other nearby resorts where you can fish from their dock.Had a great time and can't wait to return.

Doesn't cater to families with teenagers.I had a family of 6 staying in the 2 bed unit.They only gave me 4 towels,when I asked for more,they refused and said I had enough.

We bought our first timeshare week here last spring sight unseen. After a June stay we immediately purchased a 2nd week. Spacious 1,500-1,600 square foot, 2BR, 2.5BA townhome style units. Pool and spa onsite; beach across the street. Very close to amenities of Manatee Public Beach (playground, gift shop, restaurant, life guards). Pretty beach and nice swimming.

Umbrella Beach is a wonderful small resort. Really good standard of accommodation, a good on-site swimming pool and a short walk from a white sandy beach. Supermarket and shops a short walk away so you don't have to drive all week if you don't want to. The neighbors(owners) are friendly. A really wonderful quiet holiday.
