Your toes in the sand within seconds. Four Beach Lovers Unit 1 is a completely renovated gulf-front retreat in Holmes Beach where the beach isn't just close — it's right there. Step off your private patio and you're standing on white sand with the turquoise Gulf of Mexico stretching before you.
Unit 1 faces southwest, directly on the Gulf. That means front-row sunsets every evening, dolphin sightings from your patio most mornings, and a quiet, uncrowded stretch of beach that guests describe as some of the best on the island. This isn't beach access or a short walk to the water — it's the water.
The 2025 renovation took everything down to the studs and rebuilt it. Solar Powered. New kitchen with full-size appliances, dishwasher, and a wine fridge for chilling a bottle before sunset. New bathroom with a spacious walk-in shower and modern fixtures. All new furnishings, new linens, and new smart TVs in the bedroom and living room. The result is a fresh, modern space that still feels like a genuine beach cottage — because it is one.
The king bedroom is a peaceful retreat with its own smart TV. The living room sofa sleeper comfortably handles two more guests, sleeping four in total. Fast 1-gig WiFi and a full cable package make this equally functional for remote workers and families weathering a rainy afternoon.
The patio is where most guests spend most of their time. Beach chairs are stored in the shed — grab them and you're on the sand in seconds. Charcoal grills are available onsite for beachside cookouts. There's no better place on the island to eat dinner than your own patio at sunset with the Gulf in front of you.
Four Beach Lovers has four units total. Units 1 and 2 face the Gulf; Units 3 and 4 offer garden views. The property's tropical landscaping, gazebo with fountain, and old-fashioned porch swings make the grounds feel like a small, private resort.
Holmes Beach puts you in the quieter, more local part of Anna Maria Island. Publix is a couple of blocks away. Walgreens and a small shopping center are nearby. The free island trolley stops close by — explore the full length of AMI without moving your car once you've parked.
Guests have made Four Beach Lovers their annual tradition — some returning four, five, even twelve years running. They book their next stay before they leave. The location keeps them coming back. The 2025 renovation gives them something brand new to come back to.
Four Beach Lovers Unit 1 requires a one-week minimum stay and includes parking for one car. This property is not pet-friendly.
Noise Ordinance: You are vacationing in a residential area, the quiet hours are 10 PM-7 AM. 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.
*Final payments are due 60 days prior to arrival payable by personal check or Echeck (which will incur a $1.00 processing fee) we do take
credit cards for final payment with a 3% fee on the balance due.

If your goal is to spend as much time as you possibly can on the beach (and with very fee people on top of you) then this is your place. The host was great and responsive, the housekeeping does an amazing job getting it spotless for when you arrive and it is outfitted with everything you will need (from the kitchen to the beach shed).I almost did not want to write this because then more people will be renting and that could possibly make my return dates harder to get. And my wife and I already have at least one return date already in the plan. This place was everything we needed for a relaxing week on the island.Not only are you right on top of the beach but your close to shopping, restraunts (everything is close but I mean within walking distance). Love it!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this property. The unit was spotless upon arrival and exactly as advertised. The location truly cannot be beat—situated in a quiet neighborhood with a beautiful beachfront that was never crowded, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind.The kitchen and entire property were exceptionally well-appointed with everything we could possibly need. We especially appreciated the beach shed, which was stocked with chairs, umbrellas, and other beach essentials, making our days by the water effortless and enjoyable.From start to finish, this was one of the most relaxing vacations we’ve had. We highly recommend this beautiful and rare beachfront property and would not hesitate to stay here again.

Our ocean front view was amazing to wake up to everyday! The little cottage was so beautiful and clean. Everything you needed was there from steps to the beach,beach towels provide and beach chairs. The trolley was free and got us to everywhere. Everything was perfect! I am missing it already. Will definitely be back! Check in eas so easy and they communicated with us right away with any questions we had. They helped with transportation to and from airport. This cottage is heaven! Turquoise water everyday! We were there May 2nd to 9th and weather was perfect. Thank you so much for making our stay so memorable.

The rental staff was amazing. The house was spotless and in great condition. Now the bad, no hot water in the kitchen sink, bed was to hard like sleeping on the floor. Porch was tiny with no roof, you could barely walk around the little table on the porch and no shade. The porch that was there before the hurricane was the best part of the vacation! The landscaping could use some attention. But otherwise our stay was great!
