Brand new home, Modern design, Close to Beaches

MelissaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Hun’s property is in a terrific location on a quiet street. It is close and convenient to beaches, shopping, and restaurants. The house is all new construction, clean, and well appointed. My husband and I felt very comfortable there and had a great stay. Hun was particularly responsive the times I had to reach out to him. It would be a pleasure to stay at this property again.

Summer Discounts Available! Steps from the Beach!

MartyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Our family of six thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Gretchen’s place on AMI. We had everything we needed and more at the condo! Our teens especially liked all the beach equipment and toys, the pool table, and the darts. The adults enjoyed using the bikes to explore the island. The condo is beautifully decorated and has everything you need to cook meals at home. The walk to the beach was easy, and the beach was beautiful everyday! We also enjoyed the proximity to many good restaurants. Publix is a short drive away for groceries. Gretchen is very attentive, answering questions prior to our visit and responding quickly to a concern we had upon move-in. The garbage disposal wasn’t working when we arrived, and Gretchen had someone out to fix it the next morning. She even gave us $50 back for our “troubles”! Overall, we couldn’t have asked for more from this Airbnb experience! Many thanks to Gretchen!

Rustic Sands - 650

Leon Rating, 5 stars9 months ago
Our time at this Airbnb in Siesta Key was amazing! The house was super clean and had an awesome kitchen with everything you could think of, plus more. Great appliances, tons of towels, dishes, some games, TVs with premium channels and more! Outside was just as great. The pool area was covered with mosquito netting, so we could relax without bugs bothering us. The pool was our favorite spot! super clean, and the outdoor BBQ grill was great! The only thing was the master bedroom bed was a bit small and not the most comfortable for us (queen size), but everything else was so good. The neighborhood was really quiet, location was 4 minute drive from the beach. Overall, this Airbnb was one of the best places we've stayed. I would 100% recommend it and would come back! it looks better in real life than the photos.

Enjoy brand new vacation 2/2 condo & water park!

TylerRating, 5 stars5 days ago
Everything you read in the description is spot on. Honestly it was even BETTER than the description. Super clean and easy to communicate. The water park (usually $30 per per son day but INCLUDED in your stay) was a blast and the on site restaurant was terrific. The beach was literally a 6 minute walk. They also supplied everything you need for the beach. The room itself was great in that you had everything you would need for the week. Other bonus was the washer/dryer in the room. We give this host a space a 10/10!!! Highly recommend and would go again and again.

Bring your family and friends to our luxury airbnb

AprilRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
I was in town celebrating my 45th birthday with family, and this home was the perfect accommodation. We enjoyed the jacuzzi and pool the most! The home was clean, warm and inviting. Our host Leon was quickly responsive and extremely accommodating...he was able to grant us a last minute late check out, which we greatly appreciated. We'd definitely stay again if we ever find ourselves back in Tampa.

AilishRating, 5 stars7 months ago
We’ve stayed here the last few vacations and as always, the place never disappoints. Great location with all beach amenities you could possibly need. We unfortunately needed to evacuate from Hurricane Helene and John was gracious and concerned for our safety. The town of Redington is a family and we’re praying for their safety and quick turn around to their paradise again.

Amazing views & steps to beach 2B-2Bath-Pool 333

CarlosRating, 5 stars4 months ago
We had a great trip. The location was perfect with a nice view of the intercostal channel and an easy 5 min walk to the beach access. Quiet and peaceful for this time of the year and just what we were looking for. The apartment was big enough for the 4 of us, comfortable bedrooms and spacious living room. Our host was friendly, quick to respond and accommodating. We would certainly like to return and rent back from her. 10 and of 10

Your guide to Holmes Beach

Welcome to Holmes Beach

Holmes Beach is the center town of the three cities on the seven-mile barrier island of Anna Maria, just south of Tampa Bay. Like neighboring Bradenton Beach and Anna Maria, Holmes Beach offers the benefit of dual coasts, overlooking Tampa Bay to the east and the Gulf of Mexico to the west. That means stunning sunsets as well as sunrises. As its name implies, the beach is the main draw here, with three miles of powder-soft white sand that rolls up from the turquoise waters of the Gulf. Beyond the shore, it becomes a playground for watersports, both motorized — jet skiing and speedboating are big here — and non motorized, including sailing and paddleboarding. From those boats, people fish, snorkel, and dive, looking for sharks, stingrays, dolphins, and manatees that inhabit the area.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Holmes Beach

You don’t earn the nickname of the Florida Suncoast without some delightful weather, and Holmes Beach’s nearly 250 days of annual sunshine provides just that. The hottest weather comes in summer, but so, too, does the rain — often in short spurts rather than day-long drenchings. Things cool off a smidge in winter, when you might need to wear a sweatshirt or light jacket. Spring and fall see plenty of sun and balmy temperatures minus the vacationing crowds. It’s also when you’ll find many of the area’s big festivals, including October’s BayFest, and November’s Symphony on the Sand. Be sure to pay extra attention to weather alerts if you’ve booked one of the area’s vacation rentals for the end of summer, when hurricane season is at its peak.


Top things to do in Holmes Beach

Holmes Beach

Everyone comes here for the beaches, and for very good reasons: they are pristine, gorgeous, and offer plenty of space to spread out. Holmes Beach spans three glorious miles, an endless buffet of white sand and blue-green saltwater. The main public beach access point at Manatee Public Beach piles on the amenities, including picnic tables, restrooms, and a concession stand.

Sarasota Bay / Barrier Islands Paddle Trails

Launch a canoe or kayak from the 63rd Street Memorial Boat Launch or Kingfish Boat Launches in Holmes Beach and head out onto some of the 75 miles of paddle trails in Manatee County. Hug the edge of the island and tour it from another angle, or skip across the bay to visit the Neal and Perico Preserves.

Egmont Key State Park

An island just to the north of Anna Maria accessible only by boat, Egmont Key State Park gives boaters from Holmes Beach a perfect spot for a day trip. This mostly wildlife refuge contains even more beautiful beaches, hiking trails, and a historic 19th-century lighthouse. Visitors can pick up shells, snorkel, fish, and bird-watch from the island.
