Perfect Winter Getaway

We loved this house! Everything was clean, the kitchen was well stocked, beach towels were provided, and the beds were comfy. We loved how close we were to the beach and Bean Point. My husband and grandson loved fishing on the point. They caught lots of fish that were catch and release. The house was close to the village and just a short golf cart ride away. The owners and host were very helpful.

Relaxing and quiet

I love how close this property is to the beach and Bean point. It was a nice surprise to have access to bikes to use as well. The back patio and pool were covered by shade so that was disappointing not to get to lay in the sun.

Bean Point beauty

We had an amazing stay at this beach house! The location is incredible, just a short walk to Bean Point. The home itself is beautiful and equipped with everything you could possibly need, including beach carts, coolers, bikes, and sand toys. The landscaping and pool area are lovely, and everything was very clean. We couldn’t have asked for a better vacation spot!

About the host

Hosted by Seabreeze Vacation

Host profile image
What started out as a vacation for our family expanded to thousands of vacations for many families. Just a year after visiting Anna Maria Island for the first time, we bought our first vacation rental here in 2002. She kept reeling us in 6 times a year, and we moved here for good in 2011. How could we not leave the rainy days in the UK for the sunny skies on Anna Maria Island? We founded SeaBreeze Vacation with the belief that everyone deserves to enjoy a slice of paradise. Our commitment to hospitality and treating others like family led us to running 80 properties today while our dedicated staff maintains a high attention to detail. We're always working to provide the best vacation experience for guests and the highest level of care and return for our property owners.

The SeaBreeze Vacation Difference.
Unlike other vacation rental companies, we're here for you with the entire staff at SeaBreeze Vacation living here locally. Our guest services and round-the-clock maintenance readily respond to your questions and needs. Want to know how to get to secret beach spots or the best places to dine with your dog? We've got your back! Every stay includes freshly laundered, hypoallergenic linens ready to use upon arrival thanks to our in-house professional linen service. We only partner with the best companies to ensure high-quality experiences from inspections to cleaning. Our office and warehouse facility are located in the heart of Anna Maria Island on Holmes Beach to better serve both guests and owners.

Five-Star Vacation Rental Experiences.
From beachfront condos and bungalows to cottages and large homes, we have just the vacation rental for you and your loved ones — with available accommodations for pets and boats! SeaBreeze Vacation rentals welcome guests with many modern amenities, such as fully equipped kitchens for easier cooking and endless fun with entertainment options. Vacation rentals with private pools, game rooms, hot tubs, on-site bars, and rooftop terraces are the added cherries on top! You'll feel like a local when you're just steps to the soft Anna Maria Island beaches but enjoy the convenience as a guest while we take care of any hassles. Book direct with confidence — guaranteed best rates and no hidden booking or admin fees!*

Stress-Free Supplementary Services.
We happily handle the fussy matters to ensure the whole family spends more time enjoying a relaxing vacation. With our grocery pre-stocking services, you come to a home ready with refreshments after your travels. Need a crib, high chair, or pack n' play and would like to save luggage space? We provide them at an additional fee and will have them clean and waiting for you and your little one upon arrival. If you'd like to enjoy an evening with your honey, we have licensed babysitting services available on speed dial. As a fun way to access any area on Anna Maria Island, our golf cart rentals make for a real crowd pleaser! If you're in need of anything special, give us a call! We'll do our best to provide you anything and everything you may need.
