This property absolutely perfect for us! we loved the location between Holmes Beach area and Anna Maria Island area. Having our own private pool on the cool and/or windy days was amazing. We tried to reserve this place for next year as well but someone beat us to the our available time slot. We hope to be back someday!

Great Location

House was as described and very cute inside. Walking distance to several good restaurants and the beach access was 5 blocks away. We brought all of our beach supplies but if you don’t have any they do have all you need for your beach day. Will definitely stay here again.

Wonderful weekend getaway!

Minor hiccup with check-in, but the management company was quick and responsive. We took a gamble on this last-minute booking, given that there weren't many reviews, but we were beyond thrilled with this property during our stay. Basic necessities are included to cook meals in if needed. Thank you for the great memories!

Cute bungalow by the gulf !

We had a good time! the renovations that you did were good. There was a few issues that could be fixed that would make the visit more enjoyable. Both Bathroom shower fixtures were very very tight. It is Hard to lock back dining room door. The rugs were not very clean and. Not appropriate for kitchen . thanks for asking our opinion .
