Leave your troubles behind as you cross to Anna Maria and surrender to the island pace. Our 'beach house' (a personal vacation home - not an investment property) is a light-filled retreat with beautiful furnishings, quality linens, spacious open plan living areas with 12' high ceilings and excellent indoor/outdoor flow. 3 large coastal bedrooms (king, queen and twin) with inbuilt storage, 2 modern bathrooms (1 en-suite) with huge separate showers, plus a hall WC closet near the laundry room. Granite finished, fully equipped kitchen with custom cabinets. Great-room opens onto generous lanai with outdoor dining; also enjoy the large entrance level patio with inviting hammock, sun loungers and gas BBQ grill.
The private, luxury pool & hot tub were converted to Saltwater in November 2020, so no chlorine smells or faded swimwear! The pool has a child friendly shallow end just a few inches deep, that gradually slopes and gets deeper, allowing young children to gain confidence in the water. The whole pool and hot tub have a special non-slip surface - no slips on shiny tiled surfaces for the young ones - or not so young ones!
Oversized double garage with remote access, beach chairs, beach gazebo, beach toys etc and beach cart plus a PING PONG table too! A Pearl of a property a few minutes walk to the idyllic, soft, white sand of the Gulf beaches with their breathtaking sunsets, towards the north of the Island. A peaceful neighborhood only minutes walk from restaurants, bars, shops and galleries of Holmes Beach. Free Island Trolley-Bus stop is just round the corner.
Please remember:
"You are vacationing in a residential area. Please be a good neighbor by keeping the noise to a respectful level during the day and night. Excessive and unreasonable noise can deprive neighbors of the peaceful enjoyment of their private property."

Response from the owner Hi guys, Thank you for posting this review of your second stay at our vacation home. We love to share our home when we can't be on AMI and Christmas time on the island is always special, especially when spent with family & friends. Our aim is always to make it feel like a 'home away from home' and that includes the Christmas tree and lights for the festive season. The large free-form pool and spa are a real hit with our guests, especially as there's no extra charges for heating them at any time of year. Please reach out to us once you've settled on dates for your next stay - we'd love to host you again real soon. Best regards, Mike & Lesley
