We brought our children, their spouses and all 7 grandchildren together here for our anniversary. Everyone had a terrific time. House was great with everyone having their own space and meeting in kitchen where we had most of our meals was perfect. Pool couldn’t have been more used and loved. Walk to beach was a breeze with wagon full of chairs ready for us. Location was a residential feel surrounded by shops and restaurants in walkning distance. We loved this place!!!

House was spacious and met all our needs. Several beds were not clean between the sheets. They immediately came and changed the linens.
Guests need to understand the pool is very cool in cool temps although heated isn’t warm. The “hot tub” is a spa that does not reach warm temps until the sun hits it for hours in the late afternoon. It is not a jacuzzi or hot tub.

We really loved the house and its location. Spacious and beautifully decorated, and so close to the beach and the Holmes beach restaurants— Freckled Fin, Hurricane Hank’s and the Feast were awesome and the Sun and Surf shop was great for souvenirs. We rented bikes and it was a fun ride up to get donuts and ice cream in Anna Maria. A few quibbles on the house— as others noted, the pool heater was not functioning properly and we only got to enjoy the spa once. Reach out immediately if it’s not warming up! Also, the kitchen is not that well equipped for cooking— plenty of dishes but short on gadgets and large utensils. A tea kettle and larger mugs would be nice! Also more outdoor furniture— lots of balconies but no place to sit and enjoy. Still, just quibbles, we loved it and even our finicky teens wanted to come back!

Great stay!
Property was beautiful, the pool and pool area were the highlight for us as that’s where we spent most of our time. I’ve read reviews about neighbors being an issue, we didn’t experience that and we have a rather loud group of adults. Location is convenient to everything. Small hiccup with checking in as the code to enter wasn’t correct, but called in and got the correct code quickly. Would definitely stay again

Great house for family trip
House was everything we were looking for. We had all of our kids & partners together for the first time in a long while and the house & pool was a great place to reconnect. Loved the old time Florida atmosphere of Anna Maria.

A grand house - mostly
This is a well-designed house with 8 bedrooms. The kitchen and living area, the pool and garages are all well designed and very functional. Proximity to the beach is a two block walk. Proximity to restaurants and shops excellent. The best Italian market is

We did not have hot water for 5 of the 7 days and were constantly asking for someone to come and check the water heater. After calling every day until an electrician finally came out. The pool and spa also did not have hot/warm water which was disappointing for the kids.
You must be VERY quiet in this house. The first night at 6:30pm while we were enjoying pizza by the pool the police were called because we were being too loud. We did not have music, were not intoxicated and not screaming. We understand being respectful but it seems as though people are sensitive to noise.
The house is very nice with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms I wish I could rate it higher but because of us having issues nearly every day of our vacation I cannot give it more than two stars.

Feel like an AMI Local
Great location with extremely short walks to the beach, shops, and nightlife. One word of advice: the walls upstairs don't block very much sound so best to relegate the children to the bunkbeds on the first floor ;)

Wonderful Family Vacation Home
Our family had a wonderful time at Malibu Beach. With 8 Bedrooms and 7 Baths, it was perfect for our large family of 17. There are several balconies & a roof top deck that is perfect to be able to look out over the Island, the Bay and the Gulf. The Kitchen & Baths are so well stocked for a large family. There are plenty of large serving dishes, pots & pans, glasses, silverware & every utensil you could possibly want. There are lots of towels & beach towels available and with having 2 washer & dryer sets you will never run out. The gorgeous pool & outdoor living area is the best of any house that we have ever rented. Everyone in our family, from the age of 68 to 18 months thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful resort style area. The beach is a very short two block walk. Having a wagon to transport several beach chairs and umbrellas was so helpful. The beach is so beautiful & the water is so clean & such a pretty color of blue. We had a great time and made some wonderful memories! We look forward to renting this house again!

Loved It!
We had 16 adults for my 50th Birthday party. This house was perfect. Everyone felt they had their own space and privacy with the ample bedrooms and baths. The location was perfect too! Close to beach, trolley stop, etc. Also, AMI was great as everyone was coming from different directions so there were 3 airports to choose from. Highly recommend Malibu Beach! You won't be disappointed.

Location, location, location... great house at Holmes Beach
WOW… everyone in our large family couldn’t stop talking about this place and its perfect location. We had easy access to just about anything you want or need while on our vacation (i.e. beach, pool, restaurants, shops, stores, etc). We typically spent the morning at the beach and the afternoon/evening in the awesome private backyard in the pool. We had no issues with all 14 members of our family, with plenty of room. The beach access was only 1-2 blocks and our part of the beach was never crowded. We did have a few issues/questions during our stay but Andrea always responded immediately and got them all taken care of or answered for us quickly. We would recommend this to anyone looking to enjoy a perfect beach getaway. We will be back!

We had such a fabulous stay at this house! We loved so many things that it is hard to list them all. We loved the pool the most and probably spent the most of our vacation out there! The beach is so close and we enjoyed visiting that as well! The features that made it extra special was the 2 washer and dryers, the 2 fridges with 1 being downstairs, the water slide and the just overall feel of a beach house! We will definitely be back as it was paradise!

Great home-needs a few updates
Great home to accommodate our family. Very close to many restaurants, stores and beach. Dishwasher was broken during most of our stay and the ice maker did not work. Cable also did not work well. (big NBA Playoff fans) Andrea worked to repair as quickly as possible, but should only do what she could do. The home could use newer appliances.

Amazing family vacation
15 people, 3 generations, kids teenagers to toddlers - everyone had a blast!!!
The location is perfect - It was our first time staying on Anna Maria Island and it is just beautiful there. Even though it was during high season, it didn't feel like it. Beach is just a short block and a half from the house and there is a handy cart and beach chairs to make getting back and forth easier. Around the corner is a little shopping square with lovely shops to poke around in. Publix is nearby and they will deliver. There is so much to do on the island and its all so close to the house.
The house - Very tastefully decorated, well stocked and room for a crowd to live comfortably. We cooked most meals there and had no issues. Fridge in the garage was very handy for beverages. Laundry rooom with double washer and dryer was great! Rooms and washrooms were well appointed, had excellent light, enough room and storage and were comfortable. Lots of balconies, we didn't use them a whole lot as we spent most of our time at the pool or beach. Not a lot of furniture on them but enough for 3-4 people to sit and enjoy. Sunsets from the rooftop balcony were lovely.
Pool was amazing and the space around the pool was spacious enough to accommodate everyone. It was a great size and had lost of shallow areas but was deep enough for swimming and jumping. The kids (and adults) loved the slide and we spent hours everyday in the pool. The pool service was very responsive if we had any issues. There is alot of greenery around the pool and we were worried about too much shade - but the pool gets great sun and towards the end of the day the shaded parts of the pool are welcome. There were alot of mosquitoes in the evening - so have some protection available so you can enjoy the outside space in the evening (this was not isolated to the house but in outdoor restaurants as well).
We would rent this house again and we will definitely come back to Anna Maria island again..thank you for the use of your beautiful vacation home.

Everything we wanted for a great vacation.
We traveled with a party of 11 adults from April 6-13, 2019. The house was large enough that we all felt we had our own space and privacy. The walk to the beach was super easy as was the walk to the local bars and Keyes Marina where we kept our boat for the week. The house was beautifully decorated and clean. Plenty of beach towels were provided as were 8 beach chairs and beach cart. There were two washing machines and two dryers which made doing daily laundry and towels each day easy. The kitchen is more than adequately stocked. There were two coffee pots and two crockpots as well as plenty of various kitchen utensils. We spent most of the time at the pool which was heated to an enjoyable temperature. The landscaping was so nice that we felt like we were on our own private paradise resort. The grill was not functioning properly, so we contacted Andrea and the grill was replaced within a day. This was a really great place to stay and we would recommend it with confidence.

Holmes Beach House
Our family enjoyed our 8 day stay at the Holmes Beach House. The house was in perfect condition and has been well maintained. The pool area is terrific and our grandkids loved it! Beach is an easy walk, local restaurants/bars easy walk and free trolleys get you anywhere on the island you want to go. AMI team is very responsive and helpful for whatever the need. Would not hesitate to return!

Fabulous house, pool and outside areas! Having a bathroom for almost every bedroom was fantastic. Short 2 block walk to beautiful, uncrowded beach. Plenty of beach toys for grand kids and beach chairs and towels for all. Amazing sunsets over water! Great kitchen and open space for hanging out. We had 8 adults and 3 babies and never felt crowded. We loved that we could walk to restaurants, shops and even a beer run. No need for car except to get to Publix short drive away. Awesome laundry set up with 2 washers and 2 dryers - perfect for washing heavy beach towels. Adults loved hot tub and TV by pool. Owners/property managers wonderful and responsive. Highly recommend!

The house is beautiful! The pool, hot tub and beach (two easy blocks away) were great!! The pool which was heated to a perfect temperature was our favorite. Proximity to shopping, restaurants and unfortunately urgent care (grandchildren with ear infections) were great as well. We loved riding the free trolley ( two easy blocks away) to the various beach parks also. We visited in late November and the weather was perfect. The kitchen was well stocked with dinner ware and pans. Our only suggestion would be to provide more pool friendly plastic plates and cups. Other than this the house was perfect! (spotless, really fun and in a great location) It also was equipped with many pool, beach toys, beach chairs, beach towels and a beach wagon!
We had a wonderful stay!!!
Thank you AMI!!

My four daughters, their husbands, and all the grandkids had a magical week here. The house is decorated in a bright, beachy decor and it is so comfortable and clean. The best part was the pool with waterfall and water slide! My grandkids loved it, and so did the adults! The rooftop deck has wonderful views. Andrea is so helpful and attentive. Beach is incredible, and there are great restaurants. We loved the Doctor’s Office Bar, a fun place for a refreshing drink.
