2nd visit

Our second time at this property and we plan to return. It is on a quiet beach, has a very well stocked kitchen, great living space, terrific deck for morning coffee and evening beverages, walking distance to drugstore, Publix, wine/liquor store, ice cream shop, cafes, and a few shops.

Perfect beach stay

This house is clean, well-equipped, and most importantly sits on a gorgeous beachfront spot. We loved sitting out on the deck and watching the sun set and literally walking down the steps to the beach. Toddler friendly too: easy to close off the open living space and steps to a Publix. Would happily stay here again.

Best location on Anna Maria.

The location was spectacular. Right on a private beach, close to the grocery store and short golf cart ride from everything on the island. The house cleaning side did have a few issues (no trash bags, no dish soap, only one partial roll of toilet paper in each bathroom, dirty hand prints on the front door and bathroom doors), but I’m certain the management company will get those issues fixed. Overall, a very enjoyable stay. Everyone in the family had a great time.

Amazing vacation. Perfect

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Frank's Beach House exceeded our expectations. It was fully stocked, clean, and you could tell they spent a lot of time (and money) making sure it was comfortable and used a lot of high end finishes.The location could not have been more perfect. Private beach spaced apart from public access points but still within walking distance to several ice cream shops and restaurants. We will definitely be coming back for many years.

Fabulous beach front getaway

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect home on a gorgeous stretch of beach. The owners were very kind and accommodating to our family needs! The screened in porch was a game bugs at night! We slept with sliding doors open and listened to the sounds of the waves all night long. The kitchen was big and spacious. It had everything we needed to prepare ocean side dinners. Lastly, the sunsets cannot be beat.

Paradise!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We booked Franks Beach House not knowing anything about Anna Maria Island and were blown away when we got there. There was a keypad on the door so we were able to go straight to the house when we got into town, making check in and check out a breeze. It is in the perfect location near grocery shopping and restaurants. Our favorite part of the house was being steps to the beautiful private oceanfront and everything we needed was provided. The house was stocked with everything we needed. We rented a golf cart for a few days and explored the island as well. We are already looking at booking our next trip to Franks Beach House, the whole family wants it to be our new yearly destination!

Great location and the beach is amazing!

This is my second trip to AMI, and this property was an amazing choice. Location: It is centrally located in Holmes Beach within walking distance to Walgreens, restaurants and strip mall shops, but yet it's tucked away on Gulf that you feel isolated. Equal jaunt to go down to Bradenton Beach or up to Anna Maria the town. Beach: I have stayed up in Anna Maria and I couldn't believe how much closer you are to the Gulf here than up north. Easy to drag everything to the beach. Views are near panoramic from inside the house the gulf is so close. And the sunsets are stunning - front row to them. Sand incredible. Lots of shells to hunt for. Outside: The big deck is so much fun. A variety of furniture in great shape. Mix of sun and shade. Porch before going into the house or cut through directly to the kitchen. I would recommend when the table needs replacing to get a pub height table/chairs to see over the railing and a better view of the dolphins. The outdoor shower area needs some maintenance, and I submitted that upon checkout. Inside: The beach and yellow decor is charming. Everything was CLEAN. The place is big enough for 6 but you don't feel overwhelmed by its size. Both bathrooms are spacious. (All showers no tubs, but we didn't care.) The three bedrooms are nice. Using the laundry in the master closet is a bit clunky with opening and closing the doors but I was grateful to have our own laundry. Also you'll probably unplug the land line phone to use the outlet near the nightstand. I would move that phone or get rid of it. Overall I was incredibly pleased with this house and would highly recommend to anyone.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Franks beach house is awesome, we enjoyed the location, close to shops and my favorite bagel place, we go every year and by far Franks has been the best, although this year was the year of restoring the beach so right in front of us was all kinds of back holes, machines, fencing , parts were roped off so instead of walking right out to the beach we had to walk down from our location about two blocks, Island vacation properties and the owner always accommodates us if anything dissatisfying happens, highly recommend them!
