Beautiful home! Perfect for our family & great location
Enjoyed our stay here. It was a beautiful clean home that was just the right size for our group. Quick walk to the beach that was never super crowded like other parts of the beach. and the pool was wonderful!
Beautiful house with great amenities. Short walk to beach and free trolley to get around the island if you don’t like driving. Nice pool to lounge in after a hot day at the beach.
We couldn’t have enjoyed our stay more at this beautiful home in Holmes Beach! We had a total of 6 people with small children and it was perfect! The location was PERFECT as well. The beach and the best coffee shops are within walking distance. We will be back in a heart beat! We had the best time exploring Anna Maria Island!
Access to beach was great. Had cart and umbrellas there. Somethings needed cleaned better and updated. Some small repairs. Upstairs railing wasn’t connected. Toilet seats were very old and chipping. Some beach chairs in back were broken and rusting away.
House is nice but appliances very dated and nonfunctional.
The house itself was clean and just as advertised. The appliances however, were dated. The washing machine wasn’t functioning properly and did not clean our clothes. The property manager was quick to offer free same day laundry service which was very much appreciated. When we arrived, we found the door handle to the kitchen door leading to balcony was not secure and almost falling off which again was fixed quickly when we called the property manager. Lastly the kitchen appliances and tools were dated and need to be replaced. Overall we had a great time. We just felt some upgrades should be done for the amount of money we spent to rent for the week.
