About this house rental
Welcome to Sandy Palms….
You’ll love this updated classic Florida beach house. On a quiet dead-end street and close to everything in Holmes Beach. It’s a perfect home base for your family to enjoy the laid back, Old Florida lifestyle of Anna Maria Island. Sandy Palms is managed by the owners who live in FL and are always available if you should need anything during your stay.
Sandy Palms is a single family home- not a duplex. Completely renovated and updated through out with all the comforts of home . The house is professionally cleaned between each guest. We (the owners) personally check the home before each check-in to assure everything is ready for your arrival.
The blue gulf waters and spectacular sunsets are just a 5 minute walk. Restaurants and shopping are a couple of blocks away. Grocery store is only 1-1/2 miles away. And the free AMI trolley stop is right around the corner, where you can catch a ride to stops all over the island. Shopping, dining, live music, fishing…. you’ll be spoiled for choices to fill your vacation days.
This ground level home has no stairs to climb, just one step-down into the sunroom. New tile floors throughout. Our kitchen is well stocked quartz countertops and appliances. There's a spacious primary suite with walk-in closet and a large glass shower. Guest room 1 has a king bed and en suite bath with walk-in shower. Guest room 2 has two twin beds. There's a 3rd bathroom with a shower/tub combo and a door to the private outside shower. All bedrooms have closets, fans and smart TVs. The pool (heated to 85 deg Oct thru May) is protected with a removable child-safety fence. It's a perfect place for your family to enjoy time together without having to share common spaces with strangers.
Just bring your bathing suit and flip-flops, we've got the rest. Beach towels, chairs, umbrella, cart and a coolers are provided for your convenience. And a supply of soaps, detergents, paper products and basic spices are stocked for you as well.
We’ve been coming to AMI for years and would love to share our recommendations for anything else you might need…. just ask!

We had an excellent time here! My young family of four loved the space and bedroom options. It’s perfect for a family needing extra room for kids, and the pool was beyond lovely! Overall, we loved it and hope to go back!

This house fit exactly what we needed for our week stay. The house is extremely clean, there were great touches of puzzles and games, and the perfect walking distance to the beach and other restaurants. You won’t be disappointed.

Rebecca's rental is one of the cleanest rentals we have stayed in. The kitchen is well equipped for any cooking you may want to do, and she is very helpful with any questions you may have. We highly recommend this house if you are planning on visiting Anna Maria Island. The location is perfect!

This is an ideal home for time in Anna Maria. The home is beautifully designed and furnished and the location is ideal. Communication with the owner is a true indication of people who want you to enjoy your stay. I would highly recommend this for anyone.

Such a gem!! The amenities and cleanliness are just perfect! From the pool, beach chairs, wagon, beach umbrella to the few spices available to cook with…everything was so nice. Rebecca was very prompt to reply with any concern that may have occurred.

Everything was great! The property is as advertised. The kitchen is well stocked as are beach chairs/towels. I would definitely recommend this property if traveling to AMI. Rebecca is very responsive and easy to work with. Thank you!

This house was exceptional. Very clean and modern. Extremely well stocked with everything guests need. We were not able to enjoy the pool because of the cool temperatures and the fact the pool is quite shaded. Communication with the host was excellent. Would definitely return to this rental.
5.0
This was one of the nicest properties we’ve ever stayed in. Just as pretty as the pictures, meticulously clean, and very well stocked. Location is great - one block over from beach and close to everything. Super easy to get around if you have a golf cart. Can’t wait to return. Would love it if they offered less than one week rentals (especially in summer).
5.0
Attention to detail, down to the baseboards being spotless. The landscaping and outside sitting/gathering areas were amazing. Location close to beach access and restaurants on quiet street. Unassuming from the outside but jackpot vacation home on the inside and backyard. Hope to return soon!

This was our seventh time coming to Anna Maria Island, but first stay at Sandy Palms and it has been the best stay yet! Rebecca was very easy to get into contact with, as well as ensured our stay was great! The home was beautiful and so clean, as well as a quick easy walk to the beach. It is even in a perfect location all together in regards to the island. A quick drive to the north end, as well as down more south of we wanted.
Overall, as a family of 6, with young ones, we had an AMAZING vacation.
5.0
Our family of 5 had a great time in Anna Maria and this home was perfect for us! We utilized both the pool and beach every day! The pool, even though it looks small in pictures, was actually a perfect size. Location to beach was truly only a 5 min walk. There are many spots to access the beach on the island but it was nice to be close to a spot that felt more private/less people. Definitely a plus for us! We visited in August so didn’t rent bikes (too hot) but did rent a golf cart and felt it was the best way to get around the island from our location. Bikes would have been a little far of a ride into the little town/shops of Anna Maria with our younger kids but a golf cart made it easy, quick, fun and easier to find parking! Plus more fun to explore the entire island this way! The house was very clean and well stocked. Plenty of towels/beach towels, pool and beach toys, chairs etc. Also if you have little ones, the extra measures for pool safety are above and beyond with a very kid proof gate locking system and alarm system. Rebecca was always helpful and responsive with check in, check out and any questions we had during our stay. Overall we loved this home and would definitely come back!

This was our first time to AMI and we could not be more pleased with choosing this home for the week. It was absolutely perfect for my family and I! Rebecca has really thought of everything and is a wonderful host! Very easy to communicate with and she clearly wants her guests to have an enjoyable stay. The house had every amenity and more and the location to the beach was perfect as it was a very short walk. The pool was exactly what we needed to stay cool in the July heat. The best part was how the landscaping was done to give you privacy and shade. We loved this home and can't wait to get back there again!

We wanted a special vacation for our children and grandchildren, and this house definitely made it special! The house was perfect, it was decorated beautifully, had everything we possibly needed and was spotless. We felt so at home in this house, we can’t wait to come back. Our grand daughters keep telling us how much they miss”our Florida house!”

The house was extremely clean! It had everything we needed, including beach towels and plenty of beach gear. The beds were comfy (big win in my opinion)! Located about a block from the beach and walkable to some restaurants. 10/10 recommend this house for your next AMI visit. We can’t wait to come back!!

We stayed at Sandy Palms with our family and friends for a week and it was an oasis away from home! It’s exactly as the listing describes, there was not one thing that we needed that was not on the property or in the house. The location is prime to the beach and the pool is the icing on the cake. We enjoyed sunsets at the beach and nights poolside in the gorgeous backyard. We absolutely hope to stay here again. Rebecca had a beautiful home and it is not to be missed if you’re planning a stay on AMI!

This house was perfect for our family. We have a very busy 5yr old and a 3m old so the open floor concept really met our needs to multitask and supervise our children. Really can’t say enough about how wonderful Rebecca was! She really went above and beyond to accommodate us. Would absolutely recommend this lovely property over and over again.

We had a wonderful vacation at Sandy Palms. The beach house was beautifully decorated, it was very comfortable and welcoming and we loved relaxing by the pool in such a relaxing setting. Rebecca was a gracious host who was kind to check in on us and who was available should we have any questions arise. We also really enjoyed having the beach be only a short walk away.

My family thoroughly enjoyed this property. You literally need to pack a bag as there is nothing in this property to want for. Tastefully decorated, fully stocked with all the comforts of home. Rebecca is a hands on host, communication is immediate. If you want a vacation close to the beach, this is the home to rent . Thank you Rebecca for this wonderful property, made our vacation a 10.

This property was perfect for my family of 5….the house was clean and beautifully decorated. The pool and outdoor area were well maintained and the kids had a blast in the private pool. The house was a short walking distance to the beach which made it great for our small children. I would absolutely recommend staying here!

I can’t say enough about this adorable property! It had everything we needed and beyond to make our stay feel like we were at home. The owner was great with communicating which I really appreciated. All the little things really went a long way with us right down to basket of beach towels right by the sliding door!
Thank you!

Our experience with this property and owner was nothing short of amazing! Rebecca was quick to respond to any questions from booking to checkout.
This house and grounds were very clean and exactly how it is described. The house included lots of extras that typically don’t come with a VRBO. The host’s attention to detail was apparent - they have a binder that includes information on the area. We found it very helpful during our stay. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space for everyone throughout the home.
The house is an easy 5 minute walk from door to beach. The beach by the house was gorgeous and not too crowded. We had space to play games in the area behind our chairs/umbrella. There was a sandbar you could walk to depending on tides. We found all beach equipment provided which saved us from having to bring ours. It was all in good condition with the exception of one boogie board which was cracked. We purchased our own so no biggie. I’m certain the host would have replaced it had we asked.
Last but not least, although the pool appears to be small in the photos the four teens in our family spent hours in the pool every day!
I would most definitely stay here again and highly recommend this property and host!

House was in great location and a very short walk to beach. Everything you could possibly need was made available with the house. Rebecca was incredible host who went above and beyond to help make our first visit to AMI a memorable one. Quick to reply to any questions we had about the house and the island. I would give Rebecca and her property an enthusiastic A+ rating. It was a wonderful 7 day stay for my family.

Great house for a small family. Seems to be recently updated. Small pool was perfect and is deeper than it appears in pictures. A short 2/10s of a mile walk to the beach. The owner communicated well.
