Steps to Gulf. Shared Heated Pool. Holmes Beach.

VRC 19-00211

100 yards from the Gulf, steps from Publix and restaurants, private patio, outdoor shower, and a heated shared pool surrounded by tropical landscaping. Anna Cabana Bungalow #1 is the Holmes Beach vacation rental couples return to year after year — and once you've stayed, you'll understand why.

This fully renovated 1950s bungalow delivers something newer construction simply can't: authentic Old Florida character with modern comfort. The eat-in kitchen is spacious and fully equipped — full-size appliances, cookware, everything you need to cook in as easily as you dine out. The living area offers comfortable seating, a flat-screen TV, and 1-gig WiFi, whether you're streaming after a beach day or squeezing in a few hours of remote work. The bedroom provides a peaceful, private retreat dressed in fresh linens.

The bathroom is compact — we'll be honest about that. But step outside to the private outdoor shower and you'll quickly forget it exists. Guests call it one of the best parts of the stay, and they're right.

The real living happens outside. Your private patio with table and chairs is where morning coffee becomes a ritual. The heated pool is shared among just four bungalows — wrapped in lush tropical landscaping, quiet, private, and beautiful. After a long day at the beach, it's exactly where you'll want to be.
And the beach is never more than a two-minute walk. Publix, CVS, and some of Holmes Beach's best restaurants are steps away. The free island trolley puts the rest of AMI within easy reach — meaning once you park your car, you may not need it again until checkout.

Anna Cabana Bungalow #1 is ideal for couples, solo travelers, and remote workers who value location, intimacy, and genuine island character over unnecessary space.

This is a place guests come back to. Some the same week every year. Some for proposals. Some because they simply haven't found anything better on the island — and they've looked.

Shared laundry facilities are available on-site. Parking is included.
Anna Cabana Bungalow #1 requires a one-week minimum stay. Not pet-friendly.

*Final payments are due 60 days prior to arrival payable by personal check or Echeck (which will incur a $1.00 processing fee) we do take
credit cards for final payment with a 3% fee on the balance due.

Yes, beach view was obstructed there are other buildings between the building and the beach. Pool was great. The only thing I guess I really don't like is being told I can't set the temperature below a certain temp. I pay good money and I expect to be comfortable. Great place though and I would probably stay again if I go back to Anna Marie.

The unit was clean and the pool was wonderful and warm. The space was very small but it worked for us. The furniture in the living room should be updated. It was not comfortable and we couldn’t watch March Madness which was a bummer. We found two eating establishments within walking distance. Overall, a fun place to go.

The property was exactly as advertised. I liked that it still has that “old Florida” charm and is very close to the Beach, Publix groceries, and other restaurants. It’s perfect for a couple looking to get away from crowds and noise.

ABSOLUTELY PERFECT GETAWAY

We couldn’t have asked for a better stay at the Anna Cabana bungalow! The location is unbeatable — just steps from the beach and a short walk or bike ride to all the best shops, restaurants, and ice cream spots on Anna Maria Island. The bungalow was spotless, cozy, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. We loved starting our mornings on the patio with coffee and ending the day with sunset walks just around the corner. Quiet, charming, and truly a slice of paradise. Already dreaming about coming back!

Quite Island Retreat

Clean and cozy. We ate our breakfast on our patio every morning, clean pool with a lot of groomed foliage. Romantic and my husband enjoyed the private outdoor shower. The pool was very nice to come back to, after a day at the beach. Loved the beach chairs and umbrella, with a very short walk to the beach. We plan on returning next year for annual "start of the summer" vacation. We also loved the "North Michigan" touch on the sign in the bedroom... we are from Grand Rapids, MI! Thanks for sharing your beautiful property.

Total Relaxation

We were looking for a quiet place close to the beach and feel we couldn’t have found a better spot. Cabana #1 was clean and cozy, just right for 2 people. The beach chairs and umbrella were super nice and only a 1 block walk to the beach. The pool was great for relaxing at the end of the day. One of the most stressless vacations we have ever had as everything about our rental was as described.

Perfect location

My husband and I had a wonderful time. The location was so close to the beach access, grocery store and many restaurants. The pool was lovely! Clean and warm. Anna Cabana was spotless, totally move in ready! The furniture in the tv area was uncomfortable, my only complaint. We hope to be able to return sometime

The place and location were excellent. It would have been helpful to have instructions on how to use the TV and have menus for local restaurants. Need to have beach chairs. Look forward to renting it again.

Cute and cozy cabana!

We really enjoyed our stay at Anna Cabana! It was an older property but well maintained, clean and the decor was adorable—perfect for the beach! You could tell that guest comfort and convenience was uppermost in owners’ mind! Location couldn’t be beat— we were 30-40 yards from a lovely beach. The area was quiet too! I loved the landscaping which gave one the feeling of privacy. It was too cool to swim but the pool looked very clean and. inviting. This property is perfect for two!
