About this property

Comfortable vacation home directly on the beach and sunsets from the terrace

We have found our perfect spot on the beach. After visited the resorts and beaches of Florida for many years we are here to stay: at Anna Maria Island. Unfortunately only for holidays - the rest of the time you can take advantage of it as a tenant. Three comfortable bedrooms, the master with a king-size bed and sea views, a queen in the second and the third with two queen beds. The two bathrooms have walk-in showers. Sliding doors in the living room and the kitchen take you directly to the deck and there you sit or lie virtually on the beach. Just down the stairs and into the clean and warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Almost every day you have the chance to discover dolphins. In only 500 meters you will find at Publix everything you need. Never forget the sunset with a drink on the terrace. Then you decide whether you want stay home for a steak on the Weber grill or dine out at the City Pier or one of the many other restaurants. In May 2011, we have renovated the house completely.

Wonderful Beach House

Have stayed here previously and it never disappoints. Great location on the water, well stocked with the essentials. Spacious inside and out with decks overlooking the water (amazing sunsets!) Ample covered parking for your vehicles which is a big plus during the summer. Everything you need for a relaxing time at the beach! The Sierra Family

Fantastic!

We will definitely be back! The location, house, cleanliness all on point. Check in and out process were easy. Enjoyed being able to walk out on the beach from the deck. Added bonus was seeing turtles, dolphins and manatees. The house was spacious for our family, with everything you need in a kitchen. The deck was perfect for sunsets.

March 23 - 30 2024

Loved it! Terrific property and better than pictures. Kitchen was as well stocked with cooking utensils, pans, extras than most and quality was good. Right on the beach which was not crowded at all. Convenient location - walking distance to drugstore, cafe, Publix and other shops. Very quiet and lovely. The two part deck was great for morning coffee and yoga and when beach was a bit windy. We also used the screened in lanai. Will be back.

Fantastic stay right on the beach

Frank’s house is absolutely amazing. As close as you can be to the ocean without actually being in it, and walking distance to the Publix and other shops, yet totally private as well. Super comfortable setup with an open concept living space that feels very spacious because of the high ceilings and floor to ceiling windows overlooking the ocean, three spacious bedrooms, two large updated bathrooms and a very functional kitchen. Also a large deck area with a grill (which we used many times). The place was immaculate when we arrived and the guys from Island Vacation Properties we’re super responsive and really pleasant to deal with. Highly recommend to anyone looking to optimize for proximity to the beach and spectacular sunsets!

Wonderful Beach House

This is a wonderful Beach House. Directly on the beach with panoramic views. The rooms are large, bright and comfortable and the sunset views from the equally large deck are amazing. The house was spotlessly clean throughout on our arrival and very well equipped. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.

Traumhafter Urlaub mit phantastischer Lage

Bei Ankunft fanden wir ein bis ins Detail liebevoll eingerichtetes Haus mit allem, was man zum Urlaub braucht vor. Allein der Blick von der Terrasse oder aus dem Fenster auf das Meer entschädigt für alle Strapazen, die wir mit dem langen Flug aus Deutschland aufgenommen haben. Die Räume sind wirklich komplett mit allem ausgestattet. Teilweise sind auch Vorräte (wie Gewürze, Salz, Zucker etc.) vorhanden gewesen. Wir können nur sagen, es war ein rundum gelungener Aufenthalt. Die Mitarbeiter der Agentur Island Vacation sind sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Wenn man eine Frage hatte etc. wurde das sofort beantwortet bzw. bereinigt. Es wird nicht der letzte Aufenthalt gewesen sein. Wir kommen sehr gern wieder. Dankeschön für alles. In Englisch: On arrival we found a up every detail lovingly furnished house with everything you need for a holiday. But the view from the terrace or from the window to the sea makes up for all the hardships that we have taken with the long flight from Germany. The rooms are fully equipped with everything really. Partly also supplies (such as spices, salt, sugar, etc.) have been available. We can only say it was a completely successful stay. The staff of the Agency Vacation Iceland are very helpful and friendly. If you had a question, etc. which was immediately answered and rectified. It will not be the last stay. We will gladly come again. Thank you for everything.
