Waves Edge South is one of two very unique homes situated directly on the sugar white sands of Anna Maria Island. Welcome to a dreamy island which oozes the charm of ‘old’ Florida and will remind you of yesteryear when you were young and the pace was a little slower. A place where visitors and residents are as likely to use a bicycle or a golf cart as hop in a car. An Islandwhere the warm waters will soothe your soul and you will leave longing to return once more.
This lovely 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home enjoys a wonderful location nestled among the sea oats on the beach surrounded by shimmering aqua waters. The Island has miles of beautiful beaches to walk, look for shells, or just sit and enjoy the captivating sunset. Just a stone’s throw from the house you will find shops and restaurants. Additionally, close by you will find stops for the free Island Trolley, which runs the length of the island seven days a week from 6 am to 10 pm. As long as you have your shoes, you can ride for free.
Inside you will find a spacious open floor plan which features a fully equipped kitchen with granite counter tops from where you can enjoy sweeping views of the Gulf. Meals can be enjoyed in the inside dining area or out on the expansive deck where there is plenty of seating and you can enjoy the Gulf breezes while you cook out on the gas grill.
In the cozy, comfortable living area, your family can have lots of fun watching movies on the flat screen TV which also has a DVR/DVD player. Or cuddle up on the sofa and read a book while looking out to the beach through a wall of windows.
The master bedroom, with a private entrance from the deck, has a king bed with flat screen tv and en suite bathroom with walk-in shower. The first guest bedroom has a queen size bed, flat screen tv and you can step out onto the balcony and enjoy gorgeous beach views. The third bedroom has a twin/full bunk bed, flat screen tv and beach views. There is a guest bathroom with a combination bath/shower.
The home has a fun sleeping loft with two twin beds and beach views and is suitable for older children and teenagers.
From the outside deck, steps lead down to a beautiful heated swimming pool with plenty of loungers for you to relax.
There is parking for 4 cars.
The pool and laundry facilities are shared with our sister home, Waves Edge North, which accommodates 6 people. For a large family gathering, why not rent both homes
See Waves Edge North at http://www.vrbo.com/1405945
As a courtesy to our guests we heat the pool from December to April. There will be days when the weather conditions will not allow pool heaters to accommodate swimming and temperature recovery times will vary.
While the pool is heated during the winter months, we do occasionally get cold spells that can send the temperatures down into 60's and 50's. This will cause the pool water temperature to drop and the pool pump will no longer be able to heat the pool, and it automatically shut down temporarily as a safety feature.

We look forward to welcoming you to our piece of paradise.
Please note that Waves Edge South accommodates a maximum of 6 guests including children. We are not able to accept guests under the age of 3.
When requesting to book the home please be sure to provide the correct number of guests who will be staying which includes adults and children and also the ages of any guests under 25 who will be staying. Thank you.

Holmes Beach has a 7 day rental requirement.

    Gorgeous location right on the beach! It was great for our family with little kids that enjoyed the pool and beach toys that were provided. Nicky was an excellent host, so kind and prompt communication. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there!

    Besides a great location the host Nicky was great to work with and having the pool is just so nice when the Gulf is cold. In addition, they have beach chairs, floaties, pool toys, all sorts of balls to lay catch on the beach. Not having to buy them or haul them in your travel just made everything perfect. By far the best place I have ever stayed.

    Our family had a fabulous vacation at this home! Nicky was an amazing host and the photos of the house don’t do justice to how close this home is to the beach. This was one of our families favorite vacations- the location on the island is perfect. We will absolutely stay here again if we have the chance.

    We were very impressed with the location and property. The location was so beautiful and house so quaint that we rarely ventured away to explore the Island. We will definitely return.

    We really enjoyed all things about this venue. One thing to really consider with this is if you are renting the entire rental or just one part of it like we did. We only had someone next-door for one day and we only saw them once, but if we had been there all week with people next-door, I’m not sure the experience would’ve been the same.

    Nicki always communicates quickly and helped us with local shopping and dining recommendations. Everything was great!

    This place is indeed amazing! Right on the beach with incredible views of the ocean and sunset each night. Beds were comfortable and entire space was very clean. Owner was very responsive and super helpful with restaurant recommendations. Awesome beach location - crowds to the far right (public beach) and somewhat to the left, but right in front of the house was always quiet and uncrowded - this was a huge perk for us during our stay. A very thoughtful check-in gift welcomed us upon arrival which was very much appreciated. Can't say enough about this place - exceeded expectations in every way.

    We loved the property, The only thing was I think more emphasis should be put on shared things, The people who were in the other house arrived first, and did not seem to understand that we also were able to enjoy the pool, beach chairs and umbrella, and such, they took all the beach stuff for themselves and were always in the pool, also the laundry room, was not able to be used until they left on Thursday, we enjoyed the extras thursday only as we left Friday

    Excellent Location!! Amazing views. The beach is not crowded at all which is why we loved it so much. The proximity to all of our favorite shops is awesome. The home is comfortable and very well equipped and having the little things like spices and condiments and laundry detergent available to us was great! The pool was lovely and we used it more than we thought we would. Nicki left us the most delicious cake and champagne and her communication is above and beyond fantastic. Check in/out is incredibly easy. The whole experience was excellent. It’ll be hard to duplicate this trip!
