About this property

Private Salt Water Pool & Spa, WALK TO BEACH, near Bean Point, GROUND LEVEL.


This family friendly beach house features cool tile floors, a 60" flat screen TV, complimentary WiFi and YouTubeTV and fans in every room. Recently remodeled, there is a new metal roof and new windows to let the sun stream in.

The living room includes a sofa and two large chairs with one ottoman. The round dining table seats six. There is an additional sofa in the lanai for those quiet mornings when you want to drink your coffee in peace while overlooking the pool. The kitchen is completely furnished with everything you need to make fun meals with your family.

The master bedroom has a king-size bed with an unusual "wave" headboard. Painted in all white, it is designed to let your mind rest and your body relax. This bedroom features a brand new Avocado mattress (voted 2020 #1 Consumer Reports mattress). This bedroom has a new master bathroom with shower and a new washer/dryer.

The second bedroom has a new headboard and a king-size bed. The third bedroom has twin beds and a cozy rug for your feet. The second bathroom is between these rooms and has a large full shower with overhead and handheld showerhead.

The backyard is fully landscaped with a 5 1/2 foot deep (at one end) salt water pool and an air bubble spa. There is also an outside faucet and hot/cold shower (to be enclosed in the fall). We have found it very handy for washing away the sand from the beach. We also provide 6 beach chairs and a beach umbrella. There is a large beach cart, if needed, and ample private parking in front of the house.

Perfect location: Highly desirable NORTH END location in the City of Anna Maria. Just 5 minutes to the beach, and easy walk to the bay side, and to Pine Avenue with all its stores and restaurants.

Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

5 Stars – Wonderful Stay!We had such a fantastic experience at this property! The home was spotless upon arrival and incredibly well stocked with everything we could possibly need – from kitchen essentials to beach gear. It’s clear the hosts have put a lot of thought into making guests feel comfortable. The location is perfect – just a short walk to the beach, which made our days easy and relaxing. On top of that, the hosts were super responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an stress-free beach vacation!

This was our second stay at Holly Bach House & it was just as wonderful as the previous stay - am sure it won’t be our last stay either. The house was so welcoming to walk into - it was very fresh and clean. The location is perfect - a quiet road and a 5 minute easy walk to the beach. Plus a lovely pool with a great spa pool - perfect to relax in after our long travels and after we had hit the Mall for hours!The house was equipped with all that we needed for our stay. We loved it.

Anna Maria Island Gem

We loved the quiet location of the house just a short distance from the beach. The pool and hot tub were amazing. The house was very clean and well stocked with soaps, paper products, and everything you need. There were also beach chairs, umbrella, and a beach buggy. The hosts were very responsive and great to deal with. We would definitely stay there again!

Incredible stay! The house is a short walk from the beach, extremely clean, and very well appointed. We’ve stayed at Anna Maria half a dozen times and this was the first house that had a beach cart. This was huge for me as we are a family of 5 and I usually lug everything on my back. The backyard and pool was perfect, very tropical feel with enough shade to enough it at all times. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a place on the island.

We had the most amazing time on the island. The Holly House was a perfect fit inside and out. We spent most of our time outside by the pool. We would definitely book this house again next year.

First Trip to Anna Maria

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at The Holly House for our first vacation ever at AMI. We have vacationed at many other beaches throughout SC, NC, and GA and this house was the cleanest and best maintained home out of them all. They provided all of your everyday living essentials which was crucial when traveling with an infant. Despite not being beachfront, the 6 min walk was a breeze especially with the beach cart they provided. They were quick to respond to any questions we had. We would absolutely stay at The Holly House again!

About the host

Hosted by Steve & Lisa Garver

Host profile image
Hi! We are Steve and Lisa Garver from Kansas City!

After many years of coming to the Florida gulf coast for beach vacations with our children and wishing that we could own a piece of it ourselves, we realized that we had found the right combination of privacy, idyllic white, sandy beaches, clear blue/green water and low-key family atmosphere. An easy walk to the beach was our number one priority and that’s what we have. In fact, we can walk everywhere because of the location. We can get to Holmes Beach on our bikes and to the south end of the island with a golf cart. We love the convenience!

If this is your first visit, our favorite haunts include breakfast at Ginny’s and Jane E’s, dinner at the Waterfront (they have great happy hours), $1.50 drafts at the Rod and Reel Pier, specialty cocktails at The Doctor’s Office and of course, any meal at The SandBar. We love to pick up “fresh out of the ocean” seafood from Capt Anthony’s and make it down to the beach at sunset to say goodnight.

Check it all out and have a wonderful vacation!
Happy Beaching!!
