Retro gaming arcade in the spacious bunk bedroom. All bedrooms have flat screen Smart tv’s. The master suite is sure to take your breath away with its views of the beach and Gulf.
The open concept kitchen, dining and living areas are wonderful for preparing meals together or relaxing during the evening. High end appliances are sure to please every level of culinary expertise.
Stroll out on the large balcony and watch the sunset after a fun filled day at the beach. Glorious Daze faces west, so beautiful sunsets are practically guaranteed nightly. After the sun goes down, enjoy your private hot tub and pool. Located upstairs, the spacious laundry room is complete with a mini refrigerator, stove and microwave-perfect for families sharing the house!
The inviting backyard swimming pool is surrounded by gorgeous travertine decking and quiet spaces to relax and unwind or share dinner on the grill. Practice your game on our new putting green!!

This is a lovely house with so many amenities! The beach is extremely close, and the owners provide a beach wagon and lots of beach toys, umbrellas, chairs and towels. It makes it easy to get there and come back, wash off and repeat the next day. The pool is perfect if you have children, my daughter had the time of her life! It is also partly shaded so if it gets too hot at the beach you can still play in the water. Another gigantic plus is the elevator (especially for luggage and groceries) and golf cart (Publix and restaurants close by), two things we have never had before with a beach rental. Now we are spoiled! This is all in addition to the beautiful views, fully stocked kitchen and comfy beds. We will be back next year!

Glorious Daze was fabulous for the week we stayed there. Starting with great communication with the owner Mary Ellen who was always very responsive during the entire process. The property is beautiful and well maintained. The pool and golf cart are great added benefits especially since you can go all over the island on the golf cart. The beds are comfortable and the house has all the amenities ( gas grill, beach chairs and umbrellas) and even a putting green. There is a decent view of the beach from the main floor and it is a short walk to the beach. I would highly recommend Glorious Daze to anyone wanting a place with lots of room convenient to the beach.

We had the best family vacation! The host was easy to communicate with and very helpful. The pool in the shade made a perfect retreat from the afternoon heat. Easy walk to the beach and we had everything we needed provided in the garage. Sunsets on the beach were incredible. Having the golf cart to tool around in was perfect. The kitchen is well appointed with anything you need including some spices, oil, garbage bags, etc. We rented some baby items, including a gate for the stairs, I wish I would have ordered two though. My 15mo old granddaughter quickly figured out how to climb up the stairs this week. Elevator for luggage also a big plus. I will definitely stay here again!

Glorious Daze did not disappoint! We absolutely loved the property and all the amenities available. From the Bath and Body Works products in each bathroom to the way the towels were folded, we felt like we were being spoiled. Plus, they had plenty of beach chairs, beach sunshade, cooler bag, golf cart, pristine pool/hot tube, sand and pool toys and much more so you had everything you needed to enjoy your vacation. Beach access was steps away and you could hear the ocean from the balconies. Mary Ellen was wonderful with her communication and follow up. We look forward to coming back!

Host profile image

We love family times together! We are blessed to be parents to 10 beautiful children and 4precious grandchildren. We have been in the rental business for 20 years. We like hearing from our guests that they had a wonderful vacation, made special memories with their loved ones, and look forward to returning in the future. We value the trust you place in us, when you rent one of our properties. Your time away is limited and we try our best to create a space you will enjoy!

Why they chose this property

Holmes Beach is simply beautiful. We love the combination of the soft, white, sugary sand and aqua waters of the Gulf of Mexico. The location of this house is perfect- just off the beach. The house was built with the architectural genius of H. Patterson Fletcher, a student at Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin Fellowship. It has amazingly unique features such as glass windows in the living room floor that look down upon the swimming pool, corner full length glass windows that allow you to take in the magnificent views of the beach, and it faces west so you catch the beauty of the setting sun each night.

What makes this property unique

Privacy! Nobody but you and your family/friends staying at this beach house. The pool is exclusively yours! You can relax with family or friends in the privacy of an entire house that belongs to you for the week! AMENITIES!! Golf cart, putting green, heated pool & spa! Beach chairs, umbrellas, wagon, bicycles, kayak, rafts, etc. Everything you need for your beach vacation.
