Anna Maria Rentals with Short Walks to The Beach

Thinking about getting one of the vacation rentals on Anna Maria Island that have short walks to the beach? If so, there are a bunch of wonderful places to stay. But which one is right for you? We recommend the following if you want to immediately step outside and sink your toes into the soft, warm Gulf sand.

105 81st Sunset Palms

Want to head outside and go shelling? You can from this gorgeous rental! Just journey over to the beach at low tide and start gathering some shells to take home.

This 5-bedroom location is one of the most stunning Anna Maria rental homes. It’s just two houses away from the sandy beaches and is near the city of Anna Maria. Quiet and relaxing, this home ensures you don’t have to worry about noise from others disrupting your afternoon tanning session or sleep at night, which will happen in the comfort of either one of two king-size beds, a queen, or two twin beds.

2107 AVE C Mim’s Cottage by the C

private pool vacation rental

If you’re looking to stay in an Old Florida home mixed with modern coastal updates, Mim’s Cottage by the C is the vacation rental for you. 

This beautifully remodeled 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits directly across the street from the beach, giving direct beach views right outside the window and a short walk to the sand. Enjoy your morning at the beach and afternoons in your own tropical backyard with a private, heated pool, screened-in porch, and a custom mural painted by a local island artist.

208 A 56th St

Situated along Holmes Beach, this lovely 3-bedroom condo is super close to several beach rental shops. Hit one up for a bicycle or perhaps a kayak if you feel like getting out on the water.

This condo’s décor is extremely warm and inviting with a ton of bright floral patterns lining the furnishings. It has a huge kitchen, massive resort-style pool with lights and a waterfall, and cavernous vaulted ceilings that open up more space.

Only a block and a half from the beach, this rental gives you a good mix of privacy and beach access.

3902 Gulf Drive 2

Surf’s up, dude! One of the most home-like Anna Maria rentals near the beach, this lovely 2-bedroom unit is located above Florida’s oldest surf shop! You can quickly exit and make your way to the beach and getting a rental bike or board from the surf shop is an absolute ‘must’ for any beach bum.

If you need extra space, opt to rent the studio apartment next to this for a total of three bedrooms.

3201 6th Ave

Beautifully updated and easily walkable location, 3201 6th Ave places you just steps from the Gulf beaches while keeping you close to some of Holmes Beach’s favorite local spots.

This 4-bedroom, 2-bath vacation home is ideal for families or groups wanting both convenience and comfort.

Spend your days walking to the beach or enjoying other local favorites like Toasted Mango Cafe, La Crêperie, and the walking trails at Grassy Point Preserve.
