Sharing our discoveries
Keeping a useful record of places and experiences as we get to know the area.
Our Story
From Minnesota to Palma Sola
Airbyd is our family’s Florida home base for invited friends and family, and a growing personal guide to the area. Our home base is Palma Sola in Bradenton, near Anna Maria Island.
The name blends Air with Byd from our family name and is pronounced “air bid.”
Our Next Chapter
We’re just getting started.
Airbyd began as a way to welcome our friends and family into our new Florida life. As we explore the Anna Maria area, we’re getting to know the places, people, and experiences that make this corner of the coast feel like home.
We’re also thinking about what we might build here over time—perhaps places of our own to welcome guests, thoughtful local connections, and better ways to bring people together for a great stay.
Those are longer-term possibilities, not services we’re offering today. For now, we’re hosting, exploring, learning, and sharing the journey.
