Step outside to enjoy a splash pool with ample seating to enjoy your lazy afternoons. Chaise lounges and tables and chairs await your dinner alfresco. Have a strawberry margarita, lemon drop or rum runner cocktail to help put you in the mood for vacation fun. It is a great sunny spot to sip your coffee in the morning too with a pastry from Ginny's & Janie's Bakery Cafe and Island Coastal Store. Evening barbecues? No problem with our pool side grill.

Take the wagon equipped with all your beach supplies, chairs, umbrella, towels, floaties and beach toys, head down to the beach three blocks away to stake your ideal spot. Enjoy the surf, beach walk, hunt for that special shell, float in the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico, people watch or simply dig your toes in the sand and bask in the sun. Awwhh! This is truly paradise! When you return from your beach jaunts use your private outside shower to remove the last of the days beach sand.


Our island is only seven miles long and never more than a few blocks wide which leaves you with sounds of the waves and visions of the sunset in all locations. Did I say sunsets? Every evening join the parade of parties wandering down to the Gulf to watch the magnificent sunsets. If you weren't hooked on the activities abound on the beaches by day, you will cherish the sunsets! Before you know it, you will be planning your next trip to paradise before you leave.

Anna Maria Island is known as 'An Island in the Sun'. The average temperature is 80 degrees. The island consists of 3 cities, Bradenton is the southern most, Holmes Beach in the middle and Anna Maria on the Northern tip. Each community has its own distinct character but all have that relaxed old Florida Charm with unique shops and restaurants. Anna Maria Island has seven miles of sugar white sand beaches, sand dunes, sea oats and Australian Pines lying between the Gulf of Mexico and the Intercoastal Waterway. This destination is a natural choice for tropical vacationers looking for golf, tennis, water sports, shopping, plus many cultural and historical attractions.

Hop aboard the free trolley just steps from your front door to experience a Grouper sandwich or Stone Crab at one of our local restaurants. Meander through the boutiques to look for a souvenir. The trolley runs everyday from 6am until 10:30pm. Stops are just two to four blocks apart!

You are vacationing in a residential area. Please be a good neighbor by keeping the noise to a respectful level during the day and night. Excessive and unreasonable noise can deprive neighbors of the peaceful enjoyment of their private property.

Come experience 'Old Florida' life on Anna Maria Island. We can't wait to share our island with you!

Perfect island retreat
We absolutely loved our stay at the Island Breeze. The house was wonderful and spacious, perfect for our family of 5 with 3 teens. The private pool and side terrace were a real plus. The house had everything we needed and more, super comfy beds, a large smart TV, perfect for movie nights, and Barbara the owner had thought of every detail a family can need around the house, especially in the kitchen, which made our stay so much easier. The Island Breeze is perfectly situated, a short walk to a beautiful and protected beach where we got to enjoy birds, dolphins coming and going and even a manatee! a few minutes drive to the city center, the place is ideal for shopping and dining. Our favs, the donuts experiment, pizza social, the Sandbar for a cocktail at sunset, and the island fresh market for their beautiful fish. This time around we also took a kayak tour of the mangroves near Sarasota (45mn drive from the house) that was stunning. I would highly recommend the whole experience, it will definitely stay on our list of “let’s go again next year”! Thank you again Barbara for everything.

Amazing House
Amazing house, owner was on top of everything: Kitchen fully Equipped Bathrooms renovated Everything for the beach in the garage Close to the beach Bedrooms are comfortable. The only suggestion that I have that could help with the temperature of one of the bedrooms is ti put a portable AC or a mini split. That would help a lot in that bedroom. Overall house is amazing We will definitely come back.

HAVEN FROM COVID-19
I traveled to Anna Maria twice during the 2020 summer. My 1st stay was enjoyable and the property was fine. My 2nd stay was at Island Breeze and it was fantastic. There are a few reasons why this house is exceptionally done: 1. The layout of the 3 bedrooms gives everyone some privacy. I would describe the house as a tri-level. The front door, garage, and pool are on the ground floor. When you enter the home, you go up half a flight of stairs. That is where the enormous eat-in kitchen, dining room, living room, 2 bathrooms, and 2 bedrooms are. The bedrooms are on opposite sides - perfect for privacy. You go up five additional steps to the 3rd bedroom that is over the garage. I have stayed in one-floor condos, multi-level housing, but none have had this layout and I don't know why. It allowed all of us to be up or asleep whenever without waking someone else (within reason of course.) 2. The extras. The owners were kind of enough to leave paper towels, paper plates, toilet paper, laundry deterg, shampoo and conditioners - FOR THE WEEK. One of my biggest complaints has always been that useable items get thrown away after each renter. Because the owners provided most of this, I wasn't buying items that I only needed for a week. That was so helpful and it saved money. 3. The pool is small BUT it has sunlight for 4+ hours. It is done in a tropical and cozy setting and worked as expected. There is an outside shower which I love. We weren't tracking as much sand through the house and we could rinse bathing suits with fresh water after pool and beach use. 4. The house is basically in the middle of the island so you can get where you need to go within 5-10 minutes - if that. 5. The beds were very comfortable. Everyone's back is different, but 5 out of 5 were comfortable here. 6. Other Activities. This house had many board games and really generous television programming. It does rain in FL so it was nice to have so many other things to do at the house. I would come back to this house. Alot of times I enjoy trying new places because it is vacation, but this one was so well done, I don't see the point when we go to Anna Maria of staying anywhere else.

“Grandma’s Pool House”
What a wonderful vacation we had at this beautiful house on Anna Marie Island! 1st family vacation with our 2 year old grandson. He had the best time at the beach and loved the pool. The house was meticulously clean and very accommodating to all our needs. Easy walk to the beach. Great to see the awesome sunsets. Landed at the airport and our grandson said... “ I want to go back to grandma’s pool house” Lol

Great stay
My family really enjoyed staying at Barbara’s house. It was clean and spacious. It had everything we needed to cook some meals during the week and plenty of dishes and silverware. It is located on a quiet street and is just a golf cart’s ride away from the beach, shops and restaurants. The only issue we had was the washing machine would pause and stop washing in the middle of cycles. The property manager said they would be getting a new one. We would definitely recommend this residence to anyone wanting to vacation at Anna Maria Island.

⭐️Great Spot To Explore AMI ⭐️
This location is very central and a convenient spot to explore Anna Maria Island. Only a few blocks (10-12 min) walk to the beach. The home is spacious, very clean, and well-equipped. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook & entertain. The backyard/pool area is cozy & there's a nice amount of shade for those who don't want to be directly in the sun all day. Barbara is a great host. Very responsive and accommodating.

Better Than Advertised!
Island Breeze was by far the nicest property we have ever stayed in! The pictures show a beautiful property that is well-maintained; it is even more breathtaking in person. The property is spotless, very well-maintained, and has all of the amenities (and then some) that you would ever need. Barbara and her husband are extremely polite, accommodating and they were a pleasure to work with. They saw to it that our experience was fantastic! I would gladly stay at Island Breeze again. If you are staying in the Holmes Beach/AMI area, I would recommend staying at the Island Breeze. I can assure you that you'll be glad you did. If I could rate the property 10 stars, I would.

Beware of everything when checking in
House is very nice....... 1. Make sure that you take time when you arrive to thoroughly go through everything in the house. I was charged for breaking a toilet seat in the master bedroom that I did not break. Owner showed a picture of a hairline crack in toilet seat that I was charged for. I am sure that we did not break the seat, it was must of been like that before we got there and I never even noticed the crack 2. Water temperature and water pressure in master bathroom is a major issue (this has also been noted by other reviews) Its very hard to get the shower at a constant temperature, when you try to adjust the water temperature it goes to extremes and takes a long time to get the correct temperature back in place. 3. After you shower (even a real quick shower) it is almost impossible to shave in the sink because their is no hot water. Even if no one in the house has taken a shower, you still can't get hot water in the sink

Beautiful home! Fully stocked for any chefs who enjoy cooking - didn't need for a single thing. Everything from flare- dining dishes - glass ware, utensils, pots and pans etc.. was top of the line. The beds and bedding were also fantastic. Nicest home e ever toyed in on the island. 100% +recommendation! Owner was very accommodating and a pleasure to work with.
