This absolutely gorgeous 4 bedrooms 3.5 bathroom home is located in the heart of Anna Maria Island in Holmes beach. It is only a short stroll to the beautiful Gulf Beaches. With a 2 car garage an extra-large driveway there is more than enough guest parking. Take the stairs or elevator to the main floor where you will find an open kitchen, living and dining area, with walk out balconies at the front and back of the home. The Queen bedroom just off the main living space looks out onto the tropical backyard pool area. The top floor has a large master king bedroom at the front of the house with large balcony with ocean views, a great place to enjoy your morning coffee or a glass of wine for a breathtaking sunset experience. The master has a large en-suite with glass shower and walk-in closet. The top floor also has a bunk room with 2 sets of twin bunk beds and the fourth bedroom with a queen bed both share a full bathroom off the hall.
Even though the beach is only steps away you can also waste your days away in the tropical backyard with heated pool, lounge chairs, outside bar, gas grill, and shower to rinse off for when you do enjoy a beautiful white sand beach day. Or you can always take the free trolley to Bean Point, or down to historic Bridge Street. Eat at restaurants like Beach Bistro, Chateau Anna Maria, grab burger's at Skinny's, or watch the sunset at the Sandbar. Go parasailing, take a sunset cruise or paddleboard on the crystal clear blue waters in the Gulf of Mexico.
This home can comfortably accommodate a group of 8 -with plenty of space for everyone to enjoy their privacy while spending quality time together under one roof-this home is ideal for multiple families. Traveling with little ones? We know you'll be back and forth to and from the beach a LOT! This house is less a minute from the front door to the white sand or having your toes in the gulf. Too many luxury amenities to list them all. Free high-speed WiFi and Spectrum cable TV. Take the worry out of packing your private sheets and beach towels knowing that when you arrive at your dream vacation rental, in place are high-quality luxury bedding, bath towels, and beach towels ready for your stay. Free up luggage space and breathe easy knowing that everything is already taken care of for you.
We might be only 7 miles long but Anna Maria has everything you could possibly need for your perfect
beach vacation. Traveling with a little one? All our homes come with pack & plays and highchairs. Need
more? There are several great rental places that have everything from baby gates to golfcarts, and they
will drop them right off at your vacation property for you. No need to pack beach towels we provide
those for you.
Remember we are laid back and on Island time - Flip-flops and shorts are ok for breakfast, lunch and
dinner no need to overpack you will most likely be in your cutest bathing suit or bikini anyways.
No need to pay the crazy high fees to check all those bags! With Publix, CVS, and Walgreens right on the
island you can grab any sunscreen, hair product anything needed, why haul it all with you?
We do our rentals from Saturday to Saturday, if you are looking for a stay that is not a 7-night rental or would like to begin your vacation on a day other than Saturday please send us an email to [email protected] as we can sometimes accommodate alternate reservations

Our family has four boys aged 8-16, we loved this house because of the space and privacy! Everyone had their own bed, own room. The private pool was a win for both kids and adults. The home is clean and well stocked. We lucked out with early check in by request. I love that the property recycles and donates un-used food and beverage items. We would have liked to see more family games, a small cooler (there were two large coolers), and more pool accessories (we brought our own diving sharks and rings and goggles, and purchased a few pool noodles while there.) This property is a very easy walk to the beach with a wagon available to transport chairs and umbrellas. We saw a few people with pop up tents which would be useful as well! We used the grill, bikes, and loved the deck sitting in the evening. Would stay here again and recommend to large families.

This house is a few minutes walk from the beach. Great location! It has a well-stocked kitchen - very comfortable. Bedrooms very nice.

The location was perfect. So close to the beach and very close to restaurants.
Love the front porch sat out there all morning and when at the house most of the day although we were at the beach most of the day.
Elevator came into use for unloading our luggage.
Lots of stairs in the house.
Very clean.
Yet smell of strong bleach upon arrival.
Had an issue of the vent coming out of the ceiling and no one came to fix after talking with the company. Oh well no biggie. Our biggest complaint was the pictures online show the pool with sun and there was definitely not sun on the pool during our stay. I’m not sure if the house being built next door took away that feature or what. But overall we loved our stay here would stay here again.

Great proximity to beach, plenty of room, and the house was clean and stocked. Would stay there again!
4.8
first four days (out of 7) spent trying to get help from Beach Retreats with the pool pump, major appliances that wouldn't work properly, and poorly stocked home with very little in the way of basic necessities.
Furniture is old and needs replaced, sagging cushions, etc., hardly a "luxury home" but you'll pay "luxury home" prices. Will never rent from Beach Retreats again.

Great location, great house. Whole family loved our time there. Would 100% stay again.

We had a lovely time in this vacation home. The pool was great. Holmes beach access was so close (like 100 steps) and beach was amaaaaazing. We had a lot of fun playing ping pong too! The home had everything we needed in terms of cups plates, pots and pans. We did need to bring other items like soaps, shampoos, paper towels (they give you the small sample shampoos and one paper towel roll to start with), coffee pods for the Keurig or filters if you use the coffee maker, some spices, etc but it was only 4 min away from the closest grocery store so it wasn’t an issue. They were also great about letting us check in at 2p instead of 4 since our flight came earlier in the day. Overall great stay!!

We had a wonderful vacation. The ocean was steps from the house & the pool was a great option with a little shade.
Plenty of space for 6 adults to stay. Very comfortable.

The property suited our needs. The elevator was very useful. The kitchen was very well stocked. There were several large tables and chairs that our group of six used quite often. The pool area was beautiful. Location and proximity to the beach was a real positive. There were labels everywhere that made our stay easier. Our group loved staying at this property.

This house was exactly what we were looking for. First of all it's very close to the beach. The pool is such a relaxing place to be when not on the beach. The pool gets a lot of shade so it's a great place to return to after getting a lot of sun on the beach.
The beach was never crowded and was also very clean. The house had everything we needed. The management company is very responsive. When we arrived there were 2 very minor maintenance issues. I emailed them and the manager and maintenance were at the door in under 10 minutes. All issues were resolved promptly. I would definitely return to Anna Maria and this property.

Other than the stairs this place was awesome 😎 very close to the beach yet nice and quiet. Elevator must be broken so I wouldn’t recommend to elderly folks.

Review of Footprints In the Sand
We stayed at this property throughout February and it was terrific. We needed a place very close to the beach because our grandchildren weee joining for a week. It was as close as you could get. Clare and Emma were wonderful to work with. They made our visit very special. The few minor things that needed to be fixed were handled immediately. The pool was lovely but did not get much sun. It didn’t matter because we were so close to the beach. It is a wonderful multi generational home that is walking distance to shops and restaurants. We made wonderful memories!
4.8
Well equipped and clean home. The pool area is nice and private. There were bikes for riding but they were much to big for me to ride. Close to the beach which is nice. Convenient to the grocery store and restaurants. Our favorite place to eat was actually over in Cortez at The Star Fish Company- I highly recommend going there. Communication with the property manager was good they were always quick to respond. Only thing that was bad was unfortunately the weather.

Excellent Location
We loved the house. It’s located steps away from the beach & is also close to shops & restaurants. It is located south of the main areas of Anna Maria, so it has a less crowded/more secluded feel. We would definitely stay here again!

Fantastic beach house
Excellent location - Very clean and well maintained - Comfortable and well equipped
We had multiple generations staying at the house and the elevator was so helpful. The pool was heated which was great b/c it was shaded (also nice after time in the sun at the beach). We appreciated that there was plenty of beach and pool gear. The proximity to the beach was the best part - but also to the shops/restaurants in Holmes Beach which was about a 10min walk. The house was very clean and well maintained, which can be a challenge with a home in such close proximity to the sand and salt water. Overall, this home will be at the top of our list for return trips to the area.

Beautiful home, great location!
Overall, excellent. The outside tv was defective so we couldn’t watch tv while enjoying the pool. (Football season) Walking distance to ocean was wonderful. Plenty of beach towels, chairs and beach umbrellas. Lovely home inside and out. Beautifully decorated. Great time of year to go. Not crowded at all. Delicious restaurants nearby.

The property and location are ideal.
Unfortunately one of our cars was stolen and recovered only by the fortune of a tracking device. Perhaps the issue is crime in the area, and renters should be warned. Having your car stolen on vacation can be traumatic.
