Located in Holmes Beach, this lovely house for $254 per night is a great choice for your next trip. Brilliant location! As seen on 'A Place in the Sun' Channel 4 UK TV programme! Perfectly designed for sharing with family and friends! Bright, clean and spacious 'New England' style property, well designed over 2 floors. End property so quietly located with stunning surrounding views. ADDITIONAL BENEFIT is that we use a local property management company. This gives you additional peace of mind should you encounter any problems or need advice whilst staying in our holiday home. Jomarie, our property manager is based on the island and will ensure that your holiday runs smoothly for you. Air conditioning throughout and ceiling fans, smoke alarms and sprinklers. On the first floor there is a large living/dining area with outdoor veranda for wining and dining with views of the Grassy Pointe nature reserve. Lots of windows with lots of light and lots of views. Surrounded by nature you will experience the serenity, beauty and birdlife of the Grassy Point nature reserve. Don't forget your binoculars! The living area has a large 40 inch flat screen TV with integral DVD. Sofa and armchairs. Connected to the living area is the kitchen with large American style fridge, microwave and dishwasher and fully equipped with everything you could need for self catering! On the same floor is a twin room with 2 single beds. Bright linen, pillows and bed covers. This bedroom has its own veranda overlooking the nature reserve and swimming pool. Upstairs is the beautiful master suite. It is a large room with a screen door that you can open to enjoy the inter coastal breezes and the birds! Ensuite bathroom and large 'walk - in' wardrobe. 40" flat screen TV. Bright linen, pillows and bedcovers on the bed. Along the landing is the washing machine and dryer. Finally you reach the double bedroom also with a veranda overlooking the nature reserve and swimming pool. There is a 32" flat screen TV in this room.

Large secure garage with beach toys and useful equipment for your days on the beach including a beach trolley and cool box on wheels, for those fun days on the beach. This means it is very easy to transport all your beach stuff down to the beach! You can also walk to the beach via the Publix supermarket for picnic supplies and everything else you might need! Steps away is the free trolley bus stop which is truly brilliant. It is a free and friendly service that takes you to all the beautiful beaches and places of interest on the island. The trolley bus also allows you to transport your bikes for free! As you enter Sandy Pointe you will cross a little wooden bridge. From here you can fish and possibly you will see the odd canoe and kayak as they make their way through the bayou!

So pleasant in every way! We loved it!!!!

Overall, we were pleased, especially with the location and the size of the space. The condo was clean but extremely outdated. The carpets upstairs, bathrooms and kitchen probably haven't been replaced in 20+ years and it shows. If they updated the place, we would definitely stay again.

Nice and quiet. We had 5 adults, the amount of space was perfect for us. Pretty easy walk to the beach and great convenience of stores being close by.

We loved this little townhouse for our 2 family vacation. There is tons of room for everyone. There was a crockpot. Normally when we drive we bring this to cook all day. This year we flew and no other family drove so we were super excited to see a crockpot we could use. Our kids loved meeting people at the pool. The beach is not a long walk at all but when you have to pack the whole house it was easier to just rent bikes for the week. We also enjoyed the parade on the 4th. There was so many fireworks as well but of course our kids were in the pool so we missed most of them. Thank you much for making our holiday special for us and letting us use this property. It was perfect.

The property was absolutely perfect! Very comfortable accommodations for all of us. We walked to the beach every day. Grocery store within walking distance as well. Overall fantastic!!

The property was nice but not as clean as it could have been. We found an old band aid in the bedroom and there were no extra paper towels or toilet paper at the location. Also, we didn't have extra trash bags for the kitchen trash can.
4.0
The property and location were really nice. The rental itself was not as clean as I would have expected when there is a property manager on site. I would have hoped that the dead bugs would have been removed and the carpets vacuumed bi had to take the bed linens to be washed as the sheets were musty and smelled of old sweat. There were no trash bags in hand, so had to buy trash bags and no trash receptacle on-site, so had to load in my vehicle to transport to the nearest dumpster.
The host was very nice and receptive, but the property manager was a bit slower to respond.
Overall a nice location and with some cleaning, a great rental.

The townhouse was spacious and clean. Nice decor. The 3 bathrooms were nice. No one had to wait to use bathroom. About 12 mins from the beach. It was across the Publix supermarket and CVS which was a huge bonus! Btw CVS has nice affordable souvenirs. The beach had powdery white sand and green blue water; very warm. Some days, waves were calm, other days had some waves for boogie boarding. Definitely check out the sunsets-very lovely. Would come again.

Great size for our family of 5 (kids are teens and above) and nice location on Anna Maria Island. Poolus convenient and Publics is across the street. Master bedroom is nice with good views of sunset. Only downside is the beach is not really walking distance, but easy to get there and lots of options anyway.

We loved the property! It was centrally located to everything we needed. Wish it would have been warmer but it was still nicer weather than we had at home.
5.0
The apartment was spotless when we arrived, well equipped and very comfortable. Having a code rather than a key was really convenient. The location is ideal, with the beach, bus stop and supermarket all on the doorstep. Incredibly comfy beds and lovely balconies to have breakfast or dinner on. The pool is really well kept and we loved seeing the local wildlife in the surroundings. Would definitely recommend and return, thanks for a relaxing, peaceful stay!

Hard to put in to words how much we love this place! A beautiful apartment nestled in the mangroves and surrounded by everything you could possibly need for a relaxing holiday. Anna Maria Island is much less developed than the neighbouring keys and offers something for everyone - fishing with a beer on Rod and Reel Pier, barbecuing on the beach as the sun goes down, grabbing a burger at Skinny’s or enjoying a Sunday jazz brunch down at the Sandbar. If all that is too much then the amazingly white sandy beach is just across the road. Thanks to Susie everything that we could think of was provided so all we had to concentrate on was our tans.

We recently enjoyed a holiday at Susie and Gary' lovely house at Sandy Pointe. The house itself is bright and spacious and well equipped with everything you possibly need for a relaxing stay. There is also a communal pool if you don't feel like going to the beach. The balconies provide a perfect vantage point to watch the sun rise across the tops of the mangroves. The beach is just a few minutes walk from the house - and are a good range of shops , including a supermarket. The beach bars and cafes have a great choice of cocktails and food - very often accompanied by live musicians.The free trolley service is a fantastic way of getting round the island. We used it to get it to various beaches and restaurants and to spend an evening at the theatre - well worth a visit. Check out the Waterfront restaurant which serves amazing seafood and weapons-grade gin and tonics - Definitely not for the faint-hearted!Travelling a little bit further afield, the Amish village restaurant and deli was a joy. The nature reserves in this area are spectacular and not too far away. All in all, a holiday here has something for everyone; beaches, restaurants, nature reserves and historical sites all easily accessible from the house. We would certainly recommend this lovely house for a perfect holiday.
