Ground Floor Luxury 4BR Home · Heated Saltwater Pool & Spa · Very Close to Beach
Welcome to AMI Beach Home in Holmes Beach on beautiful Anna Maria Island.
This custom-built ground-floor vacation home at 201 69th Street is located just a short walk across Gulf Drive from the white sandy Gulf beach and offers a private island retreat for up to 8 guests. The home features 4 spacious bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, providing comfortable space for families or small groups seeking a relaxed island stay.
After a day at the beach, rinse off under the outdoor foot shower and enjoy the heated butterfly-shaped saltwater pool with sun shelf and attached spa surrounded by lush tropical landscaping. Part of the pool deck and the spa are located under a roof overhang, allowing guests to enjoy the area even during occasional Florida rain. Guests can relax in the Florida sun on the pool deck or unwind in the shaded patio area beneath the pergola.
Pool and spa cannot be heated simultaneously, and heating performance is weather dependent and subject to environmental and technical limitations.
The spa is available daily between 1:00 PM and 10:00 PM only. The system can operate either the pool or the spa, but not both at the same time; extended spa use stops pool circulation and heating and negatively affects water quality. Operation outside these hours is not possible.
Due to local noise ordinances, pool and spa equipment shuts off overnight. Pool and spa are provided as amenities for guest enjoyment and do not constitute grounds for refund or compensation in the event of limited operation or downtime.
When the sun sets, the tropical garden creates a peaceful evening atmosphere. Prepare fresh seafood on the grill and dine beneath the pergola while soft landscape lighting illuminates the surrounding palms. A giant outdoor chess set and hammock provide additional opportunities to relax after a day at the beach.
Inside the Smart Home, the bright open living, dining, and kitchen area features vaulted ceilings and a modern gallery-style interior displaying original island photography by the owner. The design is intentionally calm and uncluttered without themed décor.
Bedrooms feature comfortable king beds with bathrooms conveniently located for easy access. HD OTA television and Roku streaming are available in the living room, bedrooms, and outdoor pergola area.
High-speed Wi-Fi internet is provided via a Frontier fiber connection with coverage throughout the house and pool deck. A full-sized washer and dryer are available for guest convenience.
Florida’s climate can bring high temperatures and humidity, especially during summer months. The air conditioning systems are professionally maintained and operate within regulated performance ranges to ensure reliable and consistent indoor comfort throughout your stay.
You are vacationing in a residential neighborhood. Please keep noise at a respectful level, especially around the pool area. Pool equipment automatically shuts off overnight in accordance with local regulations.
Preventive pest control is performed regularly; however, due to Florida’s warm and humid subtropical climate, occasional insects or small lizards may appear indoors despite best efforts. This is typical for the region.
Due to documented health considerations within the Owner’s family, pets — including service or emotional support animals — are not permitted on this private property under any circumstances. This includes visitors of guests. Any animal found on the premises will result in expedited eviction, forfeiture of payments, and liability for specialized cleaning and any resulting damages.
Absolutely no smoking anywhere on the property.
Exterior video surveillance with motion-activated recording is installed in the driveway and pool equipment areas. No cameras are installed inside the home or in the pool or spa areas.
The property was completely renovated in 2016. Environmentally friendly solar roofs were added in 2022. Following the 2024 storm season, exterior landscaping and select technical components were renewed and upgraded. Due to extensive preventive measures installed in advance, no interior water intrusion occurred.
We encourage guests to consider purchasing travel insurance to protect their stay against unforeseen circumstances.

The house was exactly as advertised. Very well set up and had all necessary items.Loved the close proximity to the beach and the quiet neighborhood!It doesn’t disappoint! Highly recommend!
Perfect gathering spot for our 2 families and we loved the home! Great layout with plenty of hangout space outdoors by the pool or bbq, and so close to the beach.
The house is wonderful and the location is fantastic! We had a couple of questions and Cheri and maintenance (Ryan, I think) could not have been more responsive. The covered hot tub is particularly wonderful; at one point we were there in the rain, which felt really special. You will not be disappointed if you rent this property!
We enjoyed our Anna Maria trip.
Only 150 yds from the beach 💙💙
The house was in a great location and very well equipped with everything we needed.
Our girls and their friends loved the pool and spa !!!!!!!
Loved the one level living space ❤️❤️
The house is really nice even nicer than in the pictures. The kitchen as well as the whole house is very well equipped with everything we needed. We really had a great stay in this house and used the pool and hot tub a lot. it was our fourth stay on the island and we will gladly return to this house. The location of this house is very good very close to the beach!
Great house for a beach stay. The property is only one block from the sand, which made it perfect for our beach trip. The property also had a beach buggy, which made it a snap to transport our umbrellas to the beach and back. The shady pool was absolutely key—what a benefit. The AC wasn’t overly strong, but we got used to that and kept the bedrooms plenty cool. The beds were comfortable—not soft enough for me, but I like ridiculously soft beds. My husband said the bed was perfect. Overall, fantastic property. This was a huge find. We expect to be back.
First of all it was not a bit and switch! You get what see in the photos.
Place is super clean and renovated. Super close to the beach. Literally 2 minutes walking!
The reasons I gave 4 stars:
You don’t have much control over AC
Someone just walked in to cleaning the the pool while we were swimming without knocking or any prior notice
The shower head didn’t work in one of the bathrooms and it took 3 days to fix it.
Overall I was so happy with the house what I liked:
House was clean and sanitized.
They had everything you need and one of the few house with dining table and sitting area for 8 when they advertise sleeps 8!
Close to beach
Amazing Find - Family Friendly - STEPS away from the Beach
Our stay at this vacation home was incredible! After our original rental was damaged by a hurricane, we needed a replacement—and this home exceeded all expectations.Our group of eight (two families with kids 8 months to 5 years old) loved the pool, which had the perfect balance of sun and shade. The partially covered hot tub/pool was great for rainy days. The backyard’s grassy/turf area made it feel cozy and kid-friendly.Inside, the home was spacious, with large bedrooms and bathrooms. A door separated the living area, helping with noise when our little one woke early. The pool door alarm was a great safety feature.The location is unbeatable—just steps from the beach! You do have to cross a quiet street, but drivers were very pedestrian-friendly. It was so close we didn’t even need to pack lunches, just walked back when needed. The free trolley stop is right next to the house, making it easy to explore.The house came with a beach wagon and chairs, which were lifesavers with four kids. While no baby gear was provided, Fun and More Rentals made renting easy. The covered patio with a dining table and grill was perfect for outdoor meals, and we loved how well-stocked the kitchen was for cooking at home.The only downside was spotty WiFi, though management was responsive. Overall, this home was a fantastic find, and we’d absolutely stay here again!
This was a great location and overall great vacation home. It was clean and perfect for our families. There were a few minor things like more bath towels and having the pool cleaned throughout our stay. We were there for 7 nights and not a single time the pool was cleaned. It thunder-stormed a couple nights so palm debris was in the pool. The owner of the house came by out of the blue. It would have been nice if we got a notification ahead of time. The grill needs repairs also. Good communication with the management company. We arrived early and when we asked to get in early and pay for it, we were denied. We had kids 3-17 with us. The cleaning and maintenance people had already been there and told us they were done. But management wouldn’t let us in. So we sat in the rain until our designated time. I mean we knew we would be earlier but it would have been helpful if they were kind enough to let us get the kids out of the rain. Overall we would definitely stay again and plan our timing better or reserve a day ahead of time.
We have visited AMI for 17 years and this rental met or surpassed all our needs. The home was very clean, spacious, well stocked and two hundred yards from the beach. Staying at a ranch house, with no steps, for us seniors was awesome.
This is a beautiful house with all of the amenities. Location is perfect for beachgoers. It was great for our family of five, but could easily accommodate a few more people. We would stay there again and would recommend to anyone!
Wonderful property, more than enough space for our big family, and only one block from a beautiful beach. The property manager was wonderful and responded quickly to my questions or needs. Looking forward to our next trip there.
We took our Senior son on Spring Break and really enjoyed this property. Perfect location for easy beach access and house was set up nicely with open floor plan and a nice hot tub and pool. Highly recommended
This home was nice. Great location to the beach. I suggest renting a golf cart and bikes for the week. Only complaint is we had only one towel per person, so we had to do laundry everyday.
We stayed here for my husbands’ 40th birthday weekend with friends. The layout is perfect for a group and we enjoyed the spa more than expected! We swam, played chess and enjoyed the beautiful weather in the evenings watching football outside. Great location, a short walk to the beach. Beds were large and comfortable - great spot!
The house was very nice and spacious. They had plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. The beach was a 2 minute walk away. I would highly recommend this property.
