This home is located in North Beach Village, a quiet, close-knit community in Holmes Beach with an Old Florida feel and an easy five-minute walk to the beach.

Holmes Beach is on Anna Maria Island — a seven-mile barrier island on Florida's Gulf Coast known for its beaches, clear water, and genuinely unhurried pace. It's the kind of place where people slow down, go barefoot, and actually disconnect. Colorful cottages, swaying palms, and a welcoming, small-town atmosphere make this one of Florida's most beloved coastal communities.

Residents and visitors enjoy everything from swimming and sunbathing to kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing. Local shops, seafood restaurants, and the charm of a true Florida beach town round out the experience. Whether you want adventure or stillness, Anna Maria Island has a way of giving you exactly what you need.

A golf cart is a fun way to get around the island since the entire 7 mile stretch is golf cart friendly.

You can also easily drive, walk, or bike everywhere and there is even a trolley system with a stop nearby the house.

This was a lovely, clean and relaxing spot! And SO close to the beach! It was very well appointed for both adults and children. Well equipped kitchen, beach and pool gear right there, children's pool toys, and even a gym that had adjustable weights, bench, resistance bands. My husband runs and the beach perfect place for that! There was ample space for all to gather to eat or sit comfortably and watch a movie. We certainly enjoyed the coffee bar in the mornings. The bedrooms were very welcoming and we loved that there were 2 king beds which were very comfortable with really nice linens. The pool is right down the path and hardly anyone was there. How nice was it to not have to worry about buying toilet paper and extra trash bags or dish and laundry soap? We rented golf carts and that was fun to explore. The sand is so soft and white (granddaughter said felt like cornstarch), the ocean is a clear blue that allows you to see fish even dolphins! We will be back hopefully very soon!
