Welcome to Island Vibe 5, a newly renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home with private, heated pool, tropical landscaping and a private back yard.

Located in Holmes Beach, this lovely property is convenient to the beach and in a very quiet Holmes Beach residential neighborhood. It has one shared wall with the unit next door. From here, it is just a short walk to the many shops and restaurants in downtown Holmes Beach, as well as the Island’s only dog park. It's mere steps from the northbound Anna Maria Island Trolley!

This beautiful property will sleep 6 people with 1 King bed, 2 Twin beds that can convert to a second king, and 1 Queen sized sleeper sofa in the living room. You can park up to 2 cars in the driveway.

In the backyard, you'll find a large open deck and a covered, shaded area overlooking the pool. There are solar lights and a pool light for enjoying the outdoors during those great Florida evenings.

You'll never miss a moment of your favorite sporting event! We have a 55" television in the living room with a DVD player, a 50" television in the master bedroom, a 43" television in the second bedroom, AND even a 50" television on the outdoor patio!

Convenience for our guests is a priority for us! All of the TVs are smart TVs and have streaming television with the Spectrum App. A washer and dryer, wireless internet, cable television and free domestic long distance calling are all included! Additionally, if you're traveling with little ones or pets, we gladly provide an array of convenient items upon request. We have high-chairs, pack 'n plays, baby gates, fans, and dog crates so you can pack less and enjoy a worry-free family getaway. Just let us know what you need in advance so we can make sure it is ready for you at the property upon your arrival.

There is plenty of opportunity for fun and games at Island Vibe 5. We have a storage shed on the property with a beach cart, beach toys, and lots of beach equipment. Additionally, there is a propane grill and outdoor propane fire pit.

We are pet-friendly! Two pets are permitted with prior approval, signed Pet Addendum, and a $150.00 non-refundable pet fee.

We treat for mosquitos from May through August

Island Vibe 5 was perfect!!!

Our family of 4(two teens)had an amazing time in this cute little home. Island vibe had everything we needed for the week. So many of the little essentials were included along with all the needed beach items. Unless your item specific, you really dont need to bring a thing except your clothing. I cant say enough good things about the host. Cathy was amazing!! She was quick to answer all of my questions and checked in to make sure everything was satisfactory. We'd definitely stay here again!! Thanks for a great week in Island Vibe 5!! -The Lewis Family questions and e. , quicaquestions.

This place was absolutely amazing! It was not only quaint and beautiful, but it was also in an awesome location with tons of beach perks to use! They had everything you’d need for some wonderful days at the beach! The pool was fantastic and refreshing! The house setup was ideal and had everything we needed!

Great house, very clean!

This was the perfect house for our family of four. Great pool for hot afternoons, extremely clean, and everything you would need to walk to the beach. My only recommendation would be to go through the kitchen and really think about what people might need for cooking and baking. The nonstick pans were old and scratched, and there were no baking dishes. But other than that the house was well stocked, and we had a great visit. We would stay there again for sure!

Wonderful home in AMI!

This house was perfect! We had such a great time and it was one of the nicest rentals I’ve ever stayed in - so well stocked - towels, beach toys, kitchen and bath supplies, etc. and all in good shape. The location was great and the owner was very helpful and communicative in advance. We would definitely stay here again in the future - thank you!!!

Best vacation

The property was clean, well maintained, and beautifully decorated and updated. The pool area was perfect for my 5 year old. We didn’t have to pack any beach chairs or umbrellas because it was all provided. This was our first trip to AMI and we had a blast between the beach and the pool. They also allowed us to bring our bigger dog, while most places have weight restrictions. We would definitely stay here again. We loved it here.

What a great place!

We’ve been coming to the island for 30 years. This rental was perfect. Clean, close to beach, and it was well-stocked with hand soap, toilet paper, dish soap, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, etc., most of which is never supplied in a rental on the island. The cleaner was super sweet (we ran into her upon arrival), as was the owner. The pool was on the small side, but it was perfect for us. Plenty of room for parking and the fridge actually kept food cold AND the ice maker rocked! That’s not common in our past rentals. We’d definitely stay here again, we’re actually thinking about booking it in the future. Couldn’t had been better! *you do share parking/duplex with other renters. The people who rented the other part of the duplex at the same time as us had different people coming and going constantly and we smelled weed a few different times. Kinda annoying but they were quiet, so it wasn’t a big deal.
