Update on Dixsealand Delight after Milton. By God's hand, the house has made it through both hurricanes without any major damage, just a LOT of outside clean-up. We have been on the island all week and have met so many neighbors and experienced so many coming together to help each other rebuild our beautiful island! We are Pictures are of the house prepped after Helene before Milton and then today. It was a sunny beautiful day on the island today! Please continue to keep those affected by the hurricanes from FL to NC in your thoughts and prayers.

I'll start by saying thank you all for your thoughts and prayers for the West Coast of FL over the past 2 weeks. There has been a lot of devastation with 2 hurricanes hitting so close together. We are headed back to AMI to access the damage from Milton. As far as we know Dixsealand Delight made it through this 2nd time with minor issues. So many of our neighbors on the island have lost everything. Please continue to help where you can from FL to NC. We will continue to help our neighbors and friends on AMI rebuild!

UPDATE: First, please continue to pray and help however you feel led for everyone affected by this hurricane. From FL to North Carolina and in between. Second, we just got confirmation that our house is DRY. Praise God!!! The part of the island it is on and south was hit the hardest. Bradenton Beach is still closed and our neighbors had to walk to get to the houses. There is a LOT of clean up outside and neighbors needing help so we will spend time helping to do those things. Dixsealand Delight might have made it through this without flooding, but so many others did not. Again, continue to pray and help as you can!
Thank you to all who have reached out to check in about AMI. Please keep everyone on the West Coast of FL and the entire path of the hurricane in your thoughts and prayers. We don't have any specific information on our home yet, but we do know the island is covered in sand and there is substantial damage everywhere. No one but law enforcement has been allowed back on. We do have a few pictures neighbors that stayed sent us. We know the house is still standing. We just don't know about damage and water breach.

Blessings at the Beach...
Our family has been vacationing on Anna Maria Island for almost 10 years. We were looking for a "new" place to go to the beach. As usual, we researched before we planned our trip. Our requirements: safe beach town, clear water, clean beaches, non-touristy/commercial...and low incidence of shark attacks. (Seriously, shark attacks was on the list.) Lo and behold, Anna Maria Island popped up. We had never heard of this place. No one we knew had ever heard of it, but we figured "what the heck" & we booked our first vacation here. Upon arrival, we were instantly hooked.
Things that stand out are the slow, relaxed pace of the island as well as the "local" feel. It isn't a place that is overrun with franchises...more Mom & Pop type businesses are found here, and it comes through in the overall vibe of the island. Even if you aren't a "local," you feel as if you belong.
We recently found ourselves in a blessed situation to purchase a home on this wonderful island...and so here we are!!!
We can't say enough as to how much this island has meant and continues to mean to our family. Weddings, birthdays, and just overall amazing family & friend times have been celebrated here and will continue to be celebrated here.
Time is precious, and we feel truly blessed that you have chosen to spend your time at our home.
We hope you feel...like the legendary group, ALABAMA, sings...
