Welcome to Dock Holiday, our canal front vacation home located 1.5 blocks to the sugar sand beaches of Anna Maria!

The main living space includes the kitchen, dining and living rooms and is filled with natural light from the patio doors leading to the pool. Dining options include the dining room table which seats six and counter bar seating at the kitchen island for four.

The master bedroom features a king bed with an ensuite bathroom. One of the guest rooms includes a queen bed and the other has two twin beds. Each bedroom includes a TV, and crisp linens and plush towels from our professional linen company.

Your guests will stay connected with complimentary WIFI and enjoy all of the comforts of home, including a washer and dryer.

A sparkling, heated pool and spa with an outdoor shower are highlights of the fenced backyard. A gas grill, outdoor patio dining table for four, Adirondack chairs and a covered lounge set lend to a relaxing afternoon poolside. Guests will also enjoy the putting green, and a ping pong table.

The canal side dock provides an ideal spot to fish and enjoy nature. Be prepared to see a variety of native Florida birds and possibly a dolphin or manatee. Kayaks and paddleboards may also be launched from the dock for a relaxing paddle into Bimini Bay.

You may bring a 15 - 18 ft boat to dock at the home. There is a boat docked on the dock but there is up to 18 feet of dock remaining available.

Dock Holiday is easy walking distance to many shops and restaurants, and less than a block to the free island trolley, which travels the entire length of the 7 miles of the island. Hop on and off at your leisure and explore shopping, dining and the beaches. The perfect location for your next beach vacation

Very relaxing place to stay

Very nice, quiet except for hurricane repairs but that is everywhere right now. Great pool, furniture was comfortable. Minor problems but PM was quick to respond.

Perfect place to stay

We absolutely loved the house. It was perfect for our family and our dog Teddy. The location is not too far from the beach and the pool is beautiful. If we were to visit AMI again, we would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Family Vacation

Location is great...far enough away to be quiet but close enough to walk. We walked to the beach every day we were here...our youngest was 5. Beach stuff is provided...wagon, umbrella and 3 chairs.

5 Stars Perfect for our family of 4 (but could have accommodated more)

They layout is perfect. From the enormous kitchen island we were able to prep our football snacks and watch the large game time TV in the living room. The pool and hot tub were used daily. All cooking utensils were available as well as multiple things for food left overs. Great location with very limited traffic on the end of the street. Perfect location for people with children. We brought our own Kayaks and could launch (with high tide) from the dock area. We had a person with us that struggles with full mobility but had no problems moving through the house and using the shower. Highly recommend.

Great location, quiet peaceful gem

Fully stocked kitchen perfect for DIY meals (except for spices, oils, foil, etc which we had to buy). House is spacious and comfortable. Pool is amazing, heated and peaceful. The beach is about a 10-12 min walk. Beach was top notch, plenty of room to spread out and the water was the most beautiful clear blue. We bought 2 beach chairs and an umbrella which we left for the next guests in addition to some pool floats. Although we did have some service requests, lightbulbs, pool service, TV in guest bedroom didn’t work, the management company was accessible and attentive. Overall, it was a wonderful trip and a wonderful house on a wonderful beach. I highly suggest this property and we would definitely consider returning!

Best VRBO Rental EVER!

This was the very best rental we have ever used through VRBO. However, due to your enormous added fees, we will no longer use VRBO.
