Keywords: Duplex
This beautiful island duplex has been completely remodeled inside and out and furnished with a decorator's touch. Lush landscaping sets this house apart and the inviting beach decor will lower your stress level and ease you into vacation mode. This 1700 square foot unit is the upstairs half of a duplex. To get a better view, just scroll down this page and right after the rates you'll see the link for our VIRTUAL TOUR. You'll also see a link to the downstairs unit (Listing #87071 on VRBO) which has two bedrooms, 2 baths as well, but is a little bit smaller.......perfect if you'd like to bring the in-laws or extended family along to share this island paradise with you.
The white sand beaches of the Gulf of Mexico are just a few steps away so grab your beach cart, lawn chairs and umbrellas, beach towels and pop-up shade canopy (all provided for your enjoyment)! On your return from the beach, sip a cool drink while floating in the tranquil setting of the backyard heated pool or nap on an overstuffed couch while listening to your favorite music on the CD player.
Cook a gourmet meal in the fully appointed kitchen with your family gathered around the breakfast bar, or head out to the rear deck for a bar-b-que. Not in the mood to cook? Grab the free island trolley and venture into town for shopping, dining or a visit to the City Pier. But be sure not to miss the stunning sunsets. You can watch the nightly sunset pilgrimage while relaxing in the lanai as the curtains ripple in the evening breeze. It's perfection!

Map & Owner's Profile
100 Steps to the Gulf Beaches and it Has a Heated Pool!
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Holmes Beach
We're Marilyn and Jim Misiorowski and we've lived in So. California for the past 30 years. We first started coming to Anna Maria Island after James' parents moved from Chicago to the Perico Bay Club in nearby Bradenton in the 1980's. We immediately loved the small town feel of the island and in 2005 we bought this home in anticipation of retiring here. In the meantime, we completely remodeled it, added a pool, landscaping, changed the entry to the upper floor and redecorated with new furnishings with an "island decor". We really love coming to the island whenever we have time and soon plan to be there at least 6 months a year.
The Unique Benefits at this House
We have everything we need at our little slice of paradise. The beach is right across the street and we don't even have to drive if we don't want to because the island trolley stops just across from our house. The island restaurants are great and plentiful, and one of our favorites is just a block away. We also love the friendliness of the locals and the fact that there are no high rises or franchise type businesses on the island.

Great rental!

Our overarching feeling of this rental was that it was so wonderfully CLEAN! Light and bright and roomy and clean! We had a great stay, and hope we could come back again soon.
Owner response:It's so nice to be appreciated! Our goal is to provide an environment for our guests that *we* would expect in a vacation rental. We stay at our property several times a year and want it to feel like home, but away from home. Cleanliness is at the top of our priority list and we're always happy to hear from our guests that we've achieved that. So glad you had a great time!
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, tourists without a car, sightseeing, girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers.

This rental was fabulous! It's exactly as described and shown. Nicely decorated, very bright, and extremely clean. Everything we needed was here. The location of the property on the island is central too, and truly is just steps from the beach. The property is nicely maintained. Dealing with the owners and the rental management company was great. We stayed here with our 7 month old. There is one flight of stairs into the unit (as it's the upper floor) but we didn't find this any trouble at all. The entire unit is on one floor which was very beneficial for our little one. There's a free trolley stop just across the road, which is great for getting around the island without a car. I would definitely recommend this property.
Owner response:Thanks so much for taking the time to write this great review. We're so happy you enjoyed your stay. We take a lot of pride in our property and the way it is maintained so it's great to hear that our work is appreciated. Don't forget to contact us at our VRBO website or our email address if you'd like to reserve again in the future! We would be happy to accommodate you!

I highly recommend this rental. We spent a week there in February, 2010 and it was awesome. Roomy, sunny, bright, steps to the trolly and to the beach, we had our own secluded (and heated) pool, two different decks - it has everything you could possibly want or need. The only thing that could have made our stay better would have been the weather! But can't blame the condo for that!

We have loved staying here. The children have loved swimming, playing in the pool then hopping across the road to build a sandcastle! The house is beautifully decorated with so much space we all managed to find our own peaceful corner. We shall be sad to leave.

We have enjoyed staying in your beach house. The beds are comfy and the decor is relaxing and inviting. We also enjoyed the landscaping around the pool and hope to be back for the month of February in 2008.

Our family of 10 rang in 2007 in your lovely beach home. Upstairs and downstairs. We loved our week here on AMI. The pool and many patios were wonderful. Your supply of beach chairs and beach toys made our trips to the beach so much easier - and fun!!! We hope to stay here again!
