About this property

*Check in / Check out - SATURDAYS ONLY*

This is the Best Little Beach House on Anna Maria Island...with a pool.
Our home is a completely renovated 1 bedroom / 1 bathroom home that will take your breath away! Located in Holmes Beach, it is 5 houses and a short 1 minute stroll to the beautiful white sandy Gulf of Mexico beaches.
The beach itself is quiet section due to the fact that there are no large resort / hotel / motel accommodations close by.

We are the ONLY one bedroom private home with a pool on Anna Maria Island.
Many homes on the Island are actually duplexes where you each have your own pool but have shared interior walls.
This is a truly 'Private' home without shared walls or a backyard separated by fencing.

The private heated pool has a waterfall, in-pool cocktail table, and bench seating. Outdoor amenities include lounge chairs, dining table, outdoor shower, front porch seating and gas barbecue.

With tropical style coastal furnishings, this home has it all, located within a short walking distance to many shops and restaurants. It is also very close to one of the free trolley stops. The bedroom includes a king bed, large flat screen TV and DVD player. The living room has a couch, love seat and a large flat screen TV with DVD player. Bathroom includes granite counter tops and a walk in tiled shower. Bring your mobile devices as this home is equipped with Wi-Fi throughout.

We provide you with all the items you will need such as luxury bedding, bath towels, washcloths, beach towels and a fully equipped kitchen.

There are chairs, umbrellas and floats that you are welcome to bring to the beach. We also have a cart to make it easier for you to get them there :-)

There are two security cameras at the property, one at the front door and the other at the side gate facing the driveway.

Truly The Best!!

We felt welcome the very minute we stepped into this beautiful little beach house!! The touches to welcome us were so nice. The hosts provided their contact information and when I texted them to let them know we were there they answered promptly with a very friendly reply. The location is perfect since it is a one block walk to the beach and a little over a block walk to the free trolley pickup. It is also very close to a grocery store and within walking distance of several excellent small restaurants. The house is beautifully decorated, extremely clean and was stocked with everything we could possibly have wanted. The private pool is gorgeous!! The Best Little Beach House is truly a slice of paradise!!

We stayed an extra week!

Thrilled to be able to stay another week. See below for previous review. Let me just recommend some great eating spots. Two are walkable: Skinny’s and La Creperie. In Cortez: Starfish. At the north end of LBK: Shore Diner. All different, all really good.

We love the LBH

We come down every year and always have a great time. The house is perfect for us and you can’t beat that private pool. It’s a quick walk to the beach and shops. Thank you Carolyn!

Why they chose this property

We have the same story as most of the locals on Anna Maria Island, 'we came to Anna Maria Island for a vacation and never left'. Well that was a number of years ago and we still are here. Come and enjoy our home, you will never want to leave either.

What makes this property unique

The private pool and short stroll to the beach for the beautiful Gulf view sunset make this house an ideal place for a romantic vacation or getaway. Every aspect of this house was considered when it was recently remodeled. We are the only one bedroom private home with a pool on Anna Maria Island.
