Vacation rentals with beach access in Manatee County

Courtney went above and beyond to make our stay perfect from flexible check in to flexible check out. Her place is the perfect beach bungalow. Pristine condition and so clean! She had coffee, tea and snacks for us. She had beach chairs, beach towels, beach umbrella and sunscreen for us to use as well. Thank you for an amazing place, Courtney!

Mike and Wendy clearly are experienced hosts. Given the Island is still recovering and many rentals are still unable to open, I was happy to find a spot. I regularly solo travel to AMI and this spot was perfect for me: location; easy parking; plenty of well thought out amenities conducive to travelling light. Note on current AMI conditions: there is still a lot of construction going on, but not so much that it is a hinderance to relaxing on the beach, but be sure to arrive with patience and understanding.

This place did not disappoint my husband and I. The unit was newly remodeled and so well done, organized and attentions to details for guest conveniences. We loved it !

Our apartment was very clean, sheet as well. The kitchen had everything what you need, there were plenty of towels in the apartment and beach supplies were helpful. The contact with the landlord was very good, he was nice and answered quickly, Is also access to a new washer and dryer. The only minus was the mess in the garden and old junks that were everywhere, as well as the neglected greenery. 9/10

We loved our stay here.

We had such a wonderful stay on Anna Maria Island! Lynda was a fantastic host—friendly, responsive, and thoughtful from start to finish. The place was exactly as described. Clean, cozy, and stocked with everything we needed for the beach! The location was perfect—just a short walk to the beach and a quick golf cart ride to shops and great local restaurants. Lynda gave us tons of great restaurant recommendations, which made exploring the island fun. We also really appreciated that this part of the island felt peaceful and less touristy—perfect for truly unwinding. Thank you, Lynda, for sharing your lovely space with us!

Second time here. Great place to stay for couple nights. Short walk to beach. Peaceful and quiet.

My family enjoyed a week long Spring Break trip and felt very comfortable with the location primarily. This is our fourth year at Siesta Key and it is a safe and family friendly environment. I feel secure in allowing the kids to walk to the village and they know their way around as well. The beach is right across the street which is wonderful. The pool was private and not overly crowded with other guests. The den that is converted to the third bedroom is not very private, however we brought an extension curtain rod and long black out curtains to close off the room. It worked perfectly. My biggest complaint would be the temperature of the condo. The thermostat will not go below 73 degrees and to be honest it tended to get pretty stuffy in the condo. It would have been ideal if the temperature was cooler for our comfort level. Overall, we had a fantastic trip.

Thao's is a super-cute and comfortable beach bungalow. It had everything we needed for a combined work/pleasure 4-day trip. Everything was exactly as described with the perfect amount of kitchenware and beach gear. With two little outdoor deck areas, plus an outdoor shower (actually an entire extra bathroom) there was plenty of room to hang out. The only downside was that the main road is very difficult to cross. You will need a car or Uber to get downtown. That said, with a little work-around, we found an alternate route through a lovely neighborhood to walk to the Ringling Museum.

Sheryl’s responsiveness and care for us was unmatched. We had an issue with the property that she resolved immediately and even called me personally to make sure my friends and I were taken care of. Great location and outstanding customer service.

The house was so cute! Clean, neat, bright, fresh, everything we needed. Great location. Debbie was always very responsive to any questions we had. Literally answered any messages within minutes. The only issue with the house is that the bedroom and kitchen are a step down from the the level of the rest of the house. I almost fell during the night going to the kitchen since it is a step down from the dining room next to it, and I missed the step. We would have liked the TV's to be a little bigger. Other than that, the house it great. The only reason for my rating on the cost is that there were only two of us (even though the house can hold 9) so the price was a little steep per person.

We had an amazing vacation! Perfect location and great amenities. Our daughter had a blast in the pool. Sunsets were perfect. Waking up to the view of the water every morning was beautiful

We loved staying at this house! Amazing location - beautiful views of the bay and ocean and easy walk over to bridge street! Our toddler loved the pool!

Very nice, clean well kept. Steve and Heather were very responsive would highly recommend to anyone!!

This place was so nice and clean and very cute! Jessica is very helpful if you have any questions and gets back to you right away! Very close to some restaurants and bars and the beach is only a couple of blocks away. We really loved it and Chris the maintenance man is very friendly and helpful. We ran into the cleaning lady a few times while she was cleaning the other place and she sure is very friendly with a smile! We will be coming back for sure! Holmes beach is very peaceful and full of friendly people! We stayed for a month but will stay longer next time!

We loved our stay! The house was very clean and spacious, the pool was perfect for our family and the extra beach items were SO helpful. We would definitely book again!

Everything was as described, location is perfect right across Siesta Beach. Restaurants / shops were a short drive away, which was preferable for us traveling with a 5 & 8 year old (did not want to be in middle of chaos). Condo is modern, had everything we needed (including beach toys for kids which was not really expected). Instructions were spot on, did not reach out to Geoff until 2nd to last day of our stay and when I did I got a response back in minutes. Would definitely recommend this rental, it was our first time to Siesta Key, we fell in love with place and plan to be back soon. Geoff was a gracious host, you could tell he wants guests to feel at home & has done a great job accomplishing that

Exactly as described, very clean and very well equipped. We appreciated nice beach chairs and easy beach access and also enjoyed the pool and relaxing by the intercoastal waterway. Siesta Key is high density and we were there at the busiest time, but we felt peaceful and relaxed in our cozy spot.

Had a great stay, the condo was clean and steps to the beach. Pool was heated major plus since we got hit with lower than 70s temperatures.

Absolutely stunning property. We loved every second of our 5 day stay, and were devastated to leave! You couldn’t ask for a better location, the stunning sea views surround you and the beach is right on the doorstep. The property has everything you could need, including a well stocked kitchen and heaps of beach supplies. The pool is wonderful as well! Lots of shops, bars and restaurants within a short walk, but far enough away to feel nice and quiet. I can’t recommend it enough!

Beautiful location right on the beach. Quality linen and kitchen equipment - generous supply of towels. Heidi was a friendly, knowledgeable and responded very quickly to any query. Highly recommend it.

We loved the condo! My favorite part was the screened in porch with very comfortable seating, view of the ocean, and a table for card games with grandkids. I would like to definitely rent again when we visit that beautiful area in the future.

Great place - very clean and nice pool and easy walk to the beach. Comfy beds. Will def try to stay here, again!

Our family had a great time being very close to the beach. Having a pool right outside was also a big hit with the kids.
