While Away A: Beach Bliss Reimagined

VRC16-000510

Modern Charm Meets Island Ease
Step into While Away A, where laid-back Florida vibes meet modern elegance just a one-to-two minute walk from the sugar-soft sands of Holmes Beach. Completely reimagined in 2025 with loving care and attention to detail, this 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom ground-level duplex is more than a vacation rental—it’s your new favorite tradition on Anna Maria Island.

From the moment you walk in, guests say it feels like “home from the moment you walk in all the way until you go to sleep at night.” Every inch has been thoughtfully designed for comfort, from the stylish new kitchen and spa-like bathrooms to the tranquil, beachy color palette that mirrors the Gulf just steps away.

“Wish I Could Give It More Than 5 Stars”
This home is a guest favorite for good reason. Whether you’re sipping your morning coffee on the shaded patio or lounging by your private heated pool, you’ll find that “everything was absolutely wonderful.” The master bedroom features a cozy queen bed with direct access to the pool for peaceful late-night swims. In the guest room, a twin-over-queen bunk offers the perfect nest for kids or friends, while a queen sleeper in the living room adds flexibility for up to six guests.

Recent renovations didn’t miss a thing—from the sleek appliances to the ultra-productive ice-making fridge (which a guest called “a game changer for beach days!”). And yes, the AC is powerful, keeping everything perfectly cool, even during peak summer.

Steps to the Beach, Moments from Everything
While Away A is located in the heart of Holmes Beach, with a 1–2 minute walk putting your toes in the sand. Grab your beach cart and chairs—provided for your use—and stroll to one of the most beautiful stretches of Gulf shoreline. Coffee shops, restaurants, and the free island trolley are all within easy reach. One guest gushed, “Loved loved loved this place! Clean, quiet, and close to the beach and so many other fun things to do!”
