About this space
Your luxurious, tropical oasis awaits! Our massive, newly decorated, 6 bedroom/3 bathroom home (12 BEDS) is just 15 minutes from the beautiful, white sand of the anna maria island beaches! You can swim, relax in a hammock by the pool, grill, roast marshmallows around our glass, propane fire pit or just lounge around the beautiful, quiet and private backyard. Parking is plentiful and the kitchen comes fully stocked - all that's missing here is YOU and your group. We can't wait to host you all :)

What makes this property unique
This home is more than just a place to stay — it’s a labor of love, built by two generations with one shared dream. My 95-year-old grandmother and I created this space together, pouring our hearts, time, and memories into every detail. From the very beginning, our goal was simple but meaningful: to build more than just a beautiful stay, but a haven - where comfort, connection, and heartfelt hospitality always come first.
This house is a tribute to her wisdom, our bond, and the belief that love and hospitality never go out of style.
