This property is so close to being on the beach. It should be classified as on the beach, literally steps away from the powdery white sands and Clearwaters of Ana Maria Island. I wish there were 10 stars to leave for Kristin because the property manager is absolutely excellent super communicative and accommodating and wonderful. We will definitely use her again. This was our first experience with VRBO and it won’t be our last she made it wonderful.

Cute place. Nice views. Host quickly responded. We had an issue with place smelling musty and damp, possibly like urine. Contacted host on 3rd day and she had carpets cleaned but it couldn’t be done until 2nd last afternoon. Had to buy multiple air fresheners and candles. After cleaning it was much better but smell still lingered even after cleaning. Host wouldn’t reimburse anything because of having to get it cleaned. Definitely impacted stay.

Thank you for your stay. As soon as your concern was shared, we promptly arranged and covered the cost of additional professional cleaning in an effort to address the matter as quickly as possible. While we regret that this affected part of your visit, guest comfort is very important to us and we always work to respond with care and professionalism.

Beach getaway

We loved the location, amenities and beach chairs. We would have loved a queen bed in the other bedroom instead of the twin beds. We knew going in what was there, so we expected it. A few more towels would have been nice but the washer and dryer were nice so we just washed our towels.

Great location

This is about as close as you can get to being on the beach without paying to be on the beach. Very convenient location and nice accommodations. The property manager/owner is the best. She is an excellent communicator and available to help with any issues. Also take a tip she shared with me. Sunshine Concierge is an awesome service that will pick up and deliver groceries for you prior to your arrival! It was very convenient since we arrived on Christmas Day.

Great spring break condo

First time visiting AMI with two teen girls. The condo was great! We were surprised to have two screened in porches at both ends of the condo. Those were so nice to have to catch the morning sun from one deck or peek at the ocean from the other. The place was spacious and clean. There were a lot of extras like extra towels and beach chairs/umbrellas/etc. The kitchen was fully stocked with cooking supplies and some cleaning supplies. Thank you for a great place to stay while visiting AMI!

About the host

Hosted by Kristen & Tracy Olsen

Host profile image


We are Jerry and Andrea, originally from New York and now living in New Jersey, but our hearts are in Holmes Beach on Anna Maria Island.

Owning a beach condo was always a dream of ours. We searched all over Florida and instantly fell in love with Anna Maria Island. The peaceful charm, the turquoise water, and the laid back island feel made it feel like home.

Our condo is just 120 steps from the beach, and there is nothing better than sipping your morning coffee while overlooking the water. We became hosts so others can experience that same magic and create their own unforgettable island memories.

We cannot wait to share our little piece of paradise with you. 🌴

Why they chose this property

One week here and we were in love to the point we bought the condo. The beautiful sunsets and a condo just steps away from the white sandy beach made this our home away from home. The condo is comfortable and inviting, the island is warm and welcoming.

What makes this property unique

Just steps away from the beach, close to shopping. Recently renovated kitchen and new tile flooring. Two balconies to enjoy the ocean breeze. This condo is very spacious with room to stretch out.
