About this house rental
This beachy, four-bedroom, three-bath vacation rental is located in the middle of Anna Maria Island. We are 1 1/2 blocks from the beautiful beach with an easy beach access!
White Sands Beach House offers an open floor plan with plenty of space for family and friends to gather. French doors off the main living area open onto a screened balcony, equipped with seating, so you can enjoy sunsets and those island breezes! The living room is complete with ample seating and large flat screen TV.
Still on the main floor, you will find a queen-size bedroom, a bunk bedroom ( twin/full mattresses), a full bathroom with a tub/shower combo, and laundry. One floor up has two more bedrooms -- the master suite, which includes a king-size bed, lounge seating, and its own screened balcony. The master bathroom is equipped with a large walk-in shower, double sinks, and a corner jetted tub. The second bedroom includes a king size bed and its own bathroom with a walk-in shower.
Located on the ground level is a large two-car garage that leads to the inviting pool and patio. Mosquito Mist System provided year round for mosquitos and no-see-ums.
When you are ready to explore the island, you can hop on board the free AMI trolley that runs daily along the island and has a stop just a block from your door.
We hope you enjoy your stay at our White Sands Beach house and can escape from reality for a while! It truly is a slice of Heaven!

We had such a wonderful week at Maria's house - she is one of the most communicative and kind property owners I've dealt with. I asked her countless questions about the island/amenities before our trip and she was always prompt to respond and thoughtful about the information she shared. The house layout worked perfectly for my family and my sister's family. We loved all of the amenities - the pool, the beach wagons/toys, umbrella, chairs... all of it was so helpful and made the trip so much more enjoyable. We loved AMI and can't wait to come back and would rent this house again absolutely!

The house was the perfect size for 8 people - 3 couples and two teenagers. Lots of room, a great outdoor area and a wonderful screened-in deck. The kitchen had all the amenities needed. And the location is AMAZING. You're only 1 block from the beach - easily walkable and centrally located to restaurants and shopping. I highly recommend staying at Maria's house - she was a wonderful host!

We stayed in this home for 1 week with 4 adults, and 4 teens. there is a large table for games and cards, a screened in porch for getting away or for quiet time, a spacious well equipped kitchen and a nice washer and dryer set. The boys loved the ping pong table and were down in lower level playing almost every night and we could barely hear them. The pool was in great shape and the landscaping around it was beautiful and tropic. You can see and hear the TV from the pool. The entire property is well maintained. The air conditioning was awesome and worked well despite heat indices of over 100 degrees every day. Our host Maria responded quickly with any questions we had. We would stay here again.

This is my favorite VRBO. We were on a family vacation with a 2 year old and two pregnant daughter in laws. The house could not have been more perfect. The size, layout, elevator, pool, everything made it great. When the notes say the house has beach chairs and towels it is true. We took things but the house had 3 beach wagons, at least 4 chairs an umbrella, toys, and beach towels…even a cooler. If you were flying this is the house to rent for sure. The owner was so nice to work with. I can’t brag enough. We cooked at the house most of the time and found everything we needed. Did I mention a high chair. What a life saver. So sorry to be driving home.

We had a wonderful time while staying at this beautiful home! The house was clean, beds comfortable and Maria was an excellent host. Our favorite parts were the ping pong table, use of the elevator (made moving in and out so easy) and close beach access! Beach cart, beach/pool toys and chairs were a definite plus. Thank you, Maria!

This was our 3rd time staying at White Sands and we will be back! We love AMI and this house is in a great location, close to shopping and restaurants and a short walk to the beach. We always rent a golf cart because we have grandparents and kids and it makes hauling all of our gear much easier. The house is beautifully decorated and spacious and the pool area is nice and private with a great TV and grill. There is also tons of chairs, umbrellas, coolers, towels, toys and floats- do you don’t need to bring anything! My kids also loved the ping pong table and we really appreciated the elevator for my in-laws. Maria is wonderful, she is responsive and caring and made sure that everything was good for us. Thank you again, Maria - we had an amazing beach vacation!

We had an amazing time at the White Sands beach house! I feel like the pictures did not do it justice for how lovely it was. So spacious—which was perfect for our mixed group, location to the beach was amazing and the street was so quiet even though on the map it looked like a main road. The pool was amazing and there were plenty of outdoor seating options! We loved that they had a beach cart with so many accessories too. We all left happy, tan and wanting to return again! Thank you Maria for a great stay!

Although I was not able to join my clan in Tampa, I had chosen the location and made most of the preliminary plans. The intrusion of virtually every winter bug that appeared in the Chicago area, snared my entire family with a series of ailments that totally disrupted our plans. Happily, my kids managed to make the trip and had a fantastic time which they will cover in a separate “user' review. However, I certainly have enough information from them to offer a bystanders opinion.
In an allegorical approach, the process and experience reminds me of a true tale I was told by a fascinating, charismatic professor I worked for many years ago. In an operating room at a well known NE hospital a neurosurgeon was working on the exposed grey matter of a conscious patient, and was taking the opportunity to explore the patients reactions to some brain stimuli he could apply with some delicate electrodes. As he probed an area of the cortex, he found one location that caused the patient to raise his arm and exclaim “Do it again!”. Now curious, the surgeon stimulated the site again, and observed the exact same response. Excitedly he repeated the process several times and obtain the identical responses. The doctor proudly announced to the staff and observers present that he believed he had found the “pleasure site” of the patient, a significant discovery which could advance the knowledge of neuro-anatomy. However, one of the interns involved in the procedure, a former philosophy student pursuing a medical degree, frowned skeptically. “Not so fast please, I think what we may have found is not the pleasure center, but simply the “do it again” center.
The experience of visiting Maria's place encapsulates elements of the allegory. Firstly, the home and its amenities easily qualified as a pleasure site – actually among the best I have ever rented. Additionally, as the stay approached its conclusion, the “do it again” sensation emerged. Before the departure, all of us involved were committing to plan a return visit.
The hostess, Maria was, and is, exceedingly helpful and accommodating which permitted us to work around our disrupted travel arrangements and totally enjoy the experience. No matter what satisfaction metric we apply to the visit, the satisfaction rating gets absolutely top marks.

Cannot stress enough how perfect this location is. A short three minute walk to the sand! And the owner, Maria, was excellent at communicating with us. We can’t wait to come back!

We have been visiting AMI for several years and this place was one of our favorites. The house is close to the beach, the heated pool was fantastic, the kitchen was well appointed and there were plenty of TVs and space for our family.

This house was perfect for my family. My daughters and their family and I had plenty of room. Great place to stay. Baby gates for the stairs to keep my 2 year old grandson safe. Beach carts and chairs. My older grandsons had a great time also. Pool was perfect. Ping pong table to play on. Plenty of beach towels. The only problem was the floors hadn't been swept. With a 2 year old I had to right that the first day. The rest of house was clean.

We had a fantastic holiday staying at White Sands Beach House. The villa is less than 5 minutes walk to the beach. It is fully equipped for everything including beach chairs and trolleys. The house was spotlessly clean. We really enjoyed the water filter in the fridge, which saved us having to buy bottled water. The beds were really comfortable and the bathrooms were very high quality. Maria was great at communication and quickly provided 2 extra dining chairs for us. The house is between trolley stops in both directions so really easy to travel around the island. If we visit AMI again, we would be happy to book here again.

We loved renting from Maria. The house was very clean and we had plenty of room for our families. We walked to tge Beach every morning and kids played in the pool every night. We also enjoyed watching the lightning storms from the covered porch in the afternoon.

We had 6 adults, 8 yo and 3 yo. The space of the house worked perfectly. Appreciated the high chair and pack n play. Plenty of space to eat together, spend time together, and find solitary spaces. Kids enjoyed the pool. The beach cart, umbrellas, chairs, and beach toys were great to use. The short walk to the beach was so convenient. The section of the beach was never overly crowded. People were able to easily walk to a trolley stop near the house. The owner was easy to communicate with and responsive to questions. We enjoyed our stay and had no complaints.
