Anna Maria Island, Florida
Idyllic Holiday Properties is a small friendly holiday company offering an honest and efficient service for our privately owned rental properties situated in fantastic locations on Anna Maria Island on the Gulf coast of Florida (the web addresses for our other properties on VRBO can be found below). The island has 7 miles of beautiful sugar-white sandy beach where you will see pelicans dive, dolphins play and the ibis run.
This property is situated towards the top end of Anna Maria Island. It is one of a cluster of 3 cottages which have the benefit of a shared free form pool with waterfall (at most there would be 6 additional people using the pool).
The spacious property is comfortably furnished and equipped with everything we hope you would need to enjoy the perfect holiday. The bedroom has a queen bed and the bathroom is fitted with a bath with overhead shower, basin and WC.
You will find tables, chairs and loungers around the pool, which is situated in a tropically landscaped garden, making an ideal spot to sit and relax while enjoying the beautiful weather. The property benefits from off street parking for 1 car.
The beach is just 200 feet away at the end of the quiet road and numerous restaurants can also be found within walking distance. If you wanted to explore the island further without having to use your car then the free trolley bus is the perfect answer.
Note: This property has an internal door which connects to our smaller 1 bed property (Shell Cottage). This door is lockable from both sides to ensure privacy however if left unlocked it allows the 2 properties to be rented together accommodating up to 4 people

On the plus side, Seahorse Cottage is in a great location just steps from the beach. The size is about right for two. Arranging the visit and getting the keys was stress-free. On the This could use improvement IMO department, the couch is not in great shape. The cushions sag making sitting uncomfortable. The TV is too small for the room making viewing a challenge. Some new beach chairs are needed. We've been coming to AMI for 20 years. It is a pretty island with beautiful beaches. However, the island is losing its quaint cottages and old-Florida charm to large homes and excessive amounts of traffic.
We had an awesome stay at AMI… Love this place … was secluded and a very short trip to the beach for awesome sunsets … we spent most of the days by the pool and evenings on the beach … walkable to some places and short drives to awesome restaurants .. Would highly recommend
Enjoyed our time and will be back!
Nice Cottage but 3 issues. No iron available. TV was the smallest I have ever encountered at a rental property or hotel room. Front and side doors were mostly glass with a sheer fabric as a curtain. Anyone walking by could see right in. I had to drape towels over the door for privacy. Everything else was great.
Really nice time, super easy walk to the beach. Walkable to a few stores, very laid back neighborhood. Not the place to go if you are looking for night life. it was perfect for us and our 5 year old. The cottage was clean and comfortable. definitely not luxurious, with a little bit of updating on appliances, sofa, and bed, cottage could be super cute. Don't want to sound like I'm downgrading the cottage because I don't mean to. We got what we expected and had a wonderful time.
The perfect little cottage and a great location! We will be returning next year for our 4th visit.
Nice cottage for 2. Could use a bigger screen TV.
Great house and location.
Enjoyed our stay at the Seahorse. Perfect location and well kept little cottage with shared beautiful pool.
The cottage was quaint. Old Florida style that we love. Spacious enough for 2. Clean and airy. Excellent location. 2 minute walk to beautiful Anna Maria beach. Walking distance to restaurants, parks and Anna Maria and Rod-n-Reel piers. We will be back!
The cottage is cute and very close to the beach. Walking distance of restaurants and shopping. Easy check in and out. The attached cottage, shell I believe, connecting door can be locked but you can hear neighbors is they are loud (we were lucky to only hear them on our last night). Heated pool was very nice.
We had a great time here, the top 3 reasons we stayed at the Sea Horse is convenient/close beach access, close to Pine Ave shopping/restaurants and we loved the cottage!
Great property and great communication with staff. Great location and all of the amenities a family needs.
The Seahorse Cottage is just as advertised - clean, cute, great pool and close to the beach. The owner/property manager made everything extremely easy. We will be back!
Clean, super CLOSE to beach, beautiful pool, well kept, adorable, great communication! Absolutely loved it! Will return!!!
This property is on a nice quiet court, and a quick walk to the beach. The beach access is ideal, and still has that quaint feel to it.
For short get away to beach just 2 of us was perfect.
This house was perfectly locatedd just steps from the shoreline, and the pool was a great addition to our stay. Being able to walk to catch the free trolley made our so easy. We'll be back.
This is our second time staying here. Itvis perfect!!!
