One guest called it "the best resort we have stayed at" after visiting Anna Maria Island often. Solo travelers love having everything they need in an efficient layout. Couples appreciate the outdoor seating area with swing and grill where they enjoy morning coffee before beach days. Guests who stay 28 days say they "made it work for our budget and had a great time." Others book it as part of family gatherings, renting all four bungalows for weddings and reunions. The studio layout means you're not paying for space you won't use—you're investing in location, location, location. Unbeatable Holmes Beach Location From your front door, it's 100 yards across the street to Gulf beach access—less than a minute's walk. Walk five minutes to Manatee Beach and Anna Maria Beach Cafe. Skinny's Place is less than five minutes away. Publix, Walgreens, and shops are all within easy walking distance from this prime Holmes Beach location. The free island trolley stops just steps away, making the entire island accessible without a car. Guests consistently praise being "close to everything," "walking distance to shopping, dining," and "roughly the center of the island" between Pine Street and Bridge Street. Historic Charm, Complete 2025 Renovation Built in 1950 as a classic Old Florida beach resort, Bungalow #3 was completely renovated in 2025. At 207 square feet, this efficient studio maximizes every inch with smart design. The large bedroom area (14'10" x 10'3") includes comfortable sleeping space and a spacious bathroom (6'11" x 8'2") with walk-in shower and generous closet. The studio design works perfectly for couples who plan to spend days at the beach, by the pool, or exploring island restaurants. Guests call it "adorably decorated," "efficiently designed," "bright and clean," and "well appointed." The 2025 renovation brings modern comfort to an authentic 1950s setting at a price point that makes extended stays affordable. Sleeping Arrangements Perfect for budget-conscious couples or solo travelers. Studio bedroom area: Comfortable bed (14'10" x 10'3") Spacious bathroom: Walk-in shower with large closet (6'11" x 8'2") The bed consistently earns praise: "super comfy," "very comfortable." The studio layout accommodates two guests who value location over square footage—ideal for those who see their unit as a comfortable base camp between beach adventures. Outdoor Living & Shared Heated Pool While Bungalow #3 doesn't have a private patio like units #1, #2, and #4, it features a dedicated outdoor seating area with table, chairs, sun umbrella, and a wooden swing—plus Weber grill access. Guests love enjoying breakfast on their outdoor table or relaxing on the swing surrounded by lush tropical landscaping. The heated pool is steps away, shared with three other bungalows. Guests report having it to themselves frequently: "Every time we went to the pool, it was like we had our own private pool." The tropical foliage creates natural privacy barriers, and the warm pool is perfect for winter visits. Mini-Kitchen Setup Bungalow #3 is an efficiency unit without a full kitchen, designed for guests who prefer dining out at Anna Maria Island's incredible restaurants—all within walking distance. The unit includes: Mini refrigerator Microwave Mr. Coffee maker Coffee cups and basic items This setup works perfectly for guests who grab coffee at Beach Cafe, breakfast at Rod and Reel Pier, lunch at Blue Marlin, and dinner at Bridge Street Bistro—all recommended by previous guests and all walkable.

The efficient layout means everything you need is within reach, while outdoor seating and pool access extend your living space. One guest noted the unit was "fully equipped with anything you could need for a beach vacation."
