About this property

Sandy Pants – Tropical Oasis Beach Block Home w/ Heated Pool, Steps to Gulf

Welcome to Sandy Pants!
On Anna Maria Island (Holmes Beach, FL)

The Space
Where creativity meets coastal calm, Sandy Pants brings modern design and island ease together just steps from the Gulf. Every detail feels intentional — from the natural light streaming through open spaces to the textures and tones that invite connection, rest, and inspiration.

Perfect for: design lovers, families who value connection, and travelers seeking inspiration near the sea.

Highlights
- Prime beach block location — just a few homes from the soft quartz sand of the Gulf of Mexico
- Heated private pool surrounded by tropical landscaping and lounge space
- Outdoor dining area for 6, hammock, built-in grill, sun loungers
- Stylish open-concept living area with natural light and TV for relaxing evenings
- Three comfortable bedrooms with additional sleeping flexibility on custom bunks
- Washer and dryer, Wi-Fi, and complimentary beach gear credit

Interior
Inside the heart of Sandy Pants is an open, artfully designed living area that brings the whole group together. Coastal décor meets modern comfort, with soft neutrals and textures inspired by the sea. A spacious living room offers plush seating and a Smart TV, while wide windows fill the room with natural light.

The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, sleek cabinetry, and counter space — designed for effortless meal prep or morning coffee rituals. The adjacent dining area with seating for 6 brings everyone together to share meals, laughter, and stories after a day in the sun.

Kitchen & Dining
The kitchen is fully equipped and ready to inspire your inner chef or host:

- Stove, oven, and microwave
- Refrigerator/freezer
- 12-cup coffeemaker and Keurig
- Blender, toaster, and full kitchenware set

The open layout keeps you connected as meals come together — from quick breakfasts before the beach to laid-back dinners after sunset. Dine indoors at the coastal-style table for 6 or outside beneath the palms for a true island experience.

Each bedroom feels like a personal sanctuary, designed with care and creativity in mind:

- King Bedroom: A serene retreat with sliders that lead to the pool, Smart TV, simple elegance and plush comfort, en-suite with walk-in shower.
- Queen Bedroom: Modern and cozy, offering easy access to shared spaces with Smart TV and clothing storage.
- Custom Bunk Room: Designed for kids and groups with three twin beds and two double beds, Smart TV — both playful and practical.
- Shared upstairs full bath with double vanity and tub/shower combo.

Outdoor Living
Step outside and feel the gentle rhythm of the island. The private heated pool is framed by palms and lush greenery, creating an inviting atmosphere for sunbathing or a refreshing swim. Enjoy long afternoons in the hammock or relaxed evening gatherings around the outdoor dining table for 6.

The built-in grill and prep area make it easy to cook outside. Whether you're reading poolside, sipping something cool, or floating beneath the stars, this backyard was designed for both play and peace.
