Anna Maria Island is a fantastic choice for a bachelorette weekend with its laid-back vibe, beautiful beaches, and variety of local services catering to small groups. There are several companies and options to help you plan a memorable weekend, from beach picnics to yoga sessions, golf cart rentals, and private catering.

Here are some recommendations for your group:

  • Beach Picnic Setup: Several local companies specialize in curated beach experiences, including picnic setups with blankets, decor, and snacks. Look for companies like Anna Maria Island Picnic Co. or Beach Bliss Events that can create a customized picnic for small groups with optional add-ons like champagne or desserts.
  • Group Yoga: For private or small group yoga sessions, Island Yoga & Wellness and Beach Yoga AMI offer on-site sessions directly on the beach or at your rental property. You can schedule sunrise or sunset yoga for a relaxing start or end to your day.
  • Golf Cart Rentals: Golf carts are a convenient way to get around the island. Popular rental companies include AMI Golf Carts, Gulfside Golf Carts, and Island Golf Cart Rentals. They offer hourly, daily, or weekend rentals and sometimes deliver directly to your rental house.

For meals and catering:

  • Private Chef / Meal Delivery: Companies like Catering on the Island, Chef & the Dish, and Local Eats AMI provide catering for small groups at rental homes. They can prepare anything from brunch to full dinner parties, often including set-up and cleanup if requested.
  • Bakery & Specialty Orders: For desserts, charcuterie boards, or specialty items, local bakeries and cafes such as The Donut Experiment and Ginny’s & Jane E’s can deliver or prepare items for pickup.

Additional tips for a seamless weekend:

  • Book yoga sessions and picnic setups a few weeks in advance, especially for October weekends when the island is popular.
  • Confirm any permits or beach regulations if the picnic is directly on public beach areas.
  • Consider combining a golf cart rental with planned stops for coffee, brunch, or sunset views along the island for a fun, mobile experience.

With these services, you can easily plan a mix of relaxing beach activities, wellness sessions, and private dining to create a memorable and stress-free bachelorette weekend on Anna Maria Island.
