Haley’s Motel

Definitely a must! We stayed in unit 9 — Spacious kitchen and separate bedroom with a bath attached (bathroom is VERY small but it is advertised as such. Just and FYI, if you are the needy type of a person, don’t stay here. the owners must be carefree and trusting. We arrived and our room assignment was taped to the door and our room was unlocked for us. We tried the next morning but the office was still closed. It was also closed when we left the next morning. No biggie, just leave your keys in the room. Great experience.

Old Florida in the best possible way.
We tacked a few extra days onto our trip to Anna Maria Island and needed to find a place for just 2 nights. Haley’s Motel was the perfect spot. Their Saline pool was great, the walk to the beach was great, and the customer service was top notch.

Wonderful hotel. My husband and I stayed here for a week this past spring. The hotel was perfect. It was a very short walk to the beach, and many restaurants were in walking distance. Since this isn’t a chain hotel, it had quite a bit of personality. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Will definitely be staying there again next time.

Quick Summary: Clean, comfortable and very convenient location to the beach! What more could you ask for a weekend get away?
We stayed here on our recent trip to Anna Maria Island, and were pleased to see how nice the motel was kept. The room was surprisingly spacious and contemporary with a huge king bed and even a mini kitchen set-​up. I liked the tile floors, which helps keeps things cool and clean, especially being with all the sand being so close to the beach.
They have a small pool available, but why chill there when the Gulf is less than a 2 min walk away! There’s also a grill available, if you’re not wanting to dine out. If you’re headed to the beach, they’ve got everything available to you, chairs, beach towls, even carts to drag all the kids’ toys.
Overall it was a great stay, we loved being able to walk to the beach quickly, I even went for a morning run… and coming from out of town it was nice that they had all the beach things ready, so we didn’t have to pack it up with us!

Spent a week at Haley’s. It’s a quaint ‘50s style motel. The rooms are a little small but clean and very well equipped. they offer gas bbq’s and the kitchenettes are well supplied.
Location is near the free trolly stops.
They offer a heated pool and good selection of beach chairs and umbrellas to take to the beautiful beach a block away. The ironic thing about this small motel is there are a significant number of tourists from Germany there!
Staff was courteous and efficient. Rooms exceptionally clean.
This is a great hidden treasure!

5 stars for the value.
Stayed here in August, and I really enjoyed it.
We were in the Retro Room and was very happy with the accommodations.
There were lots of beach equipment that you can take such as towels, beach chairs, etc. I thought it was so great! And the beach was like a few minute walk from the motel. There were also plenty of accommodations in the room such as a kitchenette set, coffee pot, plates, etc.
The only complaint was the tiny tiny tiny bathroom and shower.

Stayed here for three nights in November in 9A. Roomed with my husband and sis-​in-​law. The space was tight (as advertised!), we joked that it was a good thing we liked each other. But for us it was perfect.
The kitchenette was well stocked, allowing us to make our breakfasts and pack lunches to save $$ for important stuff (like nightlife and shopping!) In addition to the expected appliances, our room had ice trays, coffee filters, salt/​pepper shakers and a few sugar packets. We bought the rest of the food at the Publix on the island.
The added amenities really made this experience top notch. These guys thought of everything:
* Pool was small but very cute. Quiet the weekend we were there, we had it all to ourselves. Good lounge chairs.
* Complementary beach amenities were abundant: towels, assorted chairs, umbrellas, a rolling cart to trek it all there, a few random toys/​pails, beach mats, and who knows what else was in that pile!
* Free bikes were THE BEST PART, but unfortunately only one was functional so we had to take turns. Allowed us to quickly move back and forth between spots on the island.
* Close proximity to local gems: Piers on the north east side were a scenic walk away, we spent a solid two hours watching fishermen, dolphins and birds; located on the free trolly line; Ginny’s and Jane E’s Bakery Café and Island Coastal Store just up the road, a real treat!
The staff was friendly and the price can’t be beat! I would DEFINITELY stay here again.
