Excited to be a part of The 100 Collection™!
With award-winning beaches, history, a vibrant arts scene, and celebrated restaurants, Anna Maria Island and Sarasota offer something for everyone. We are thrilled to partner with Andrew Houghton and the team at Mainsail Vacation Rentals (Mainsail Lodging & Development). Their curated selection of vacation rental properties is live with The 100 Collection. A hotelier by trade, Andrew lives and breathes hospitality. After working in the hotel business his entire life, including for Marriott in sales, marketing, and corporate roles across nine countries and four continents, Andrew retired. But he couldn’t stay away from hospitality for long. Just a day into retirement, Andrew dove back in – this time into the vacation rental industry. Along with a longtime business partner, Andrew started Mainsail Vacation Rentals on Anna Maria Island and neighboring towns in the Sarasota area. Over the last three years, Andrew’s business has bought and developed land, operated hotels, and managed corporate housing and vacation rentals with an unwavering dedication to preserving the quiet confidence and authentic Florida experience that make Anna Maria Island and Sarasota so special. A team of professional hoteliers with hospitality backgrounds, Mainsail approaches everything through that lens. They’re a local company that nurtures close relationships with the community in a way that benefits both local businesses and guests. They don’t just recommend a dolphin tour – they know the captain who keeps his boat in their basin, they work to protect his livelihood, and in turn, he treats their guests like family. With an eye for design and an understanding of practicality, Andrew’s team transforms properties into the ultimate vacation experience. Whether young families and professionals looking for something unique, or guests looking for a more traditional beach home, Mainsail Vacation Rentals crafts an authentic American coastal experience they won’t soon forget. Thank you for your partnership and welcome to the collection!
