    Description
    Welcome to Harborside, a stunning canal-front retreat in Holmes Beach where luxury meets laid-back island living. Just two blocks from the sugar-white beaches of Anna Maria Island, this spacious waterfront home offers the best of both worlds—easy beach access and your own private backyard oasis.

    Designed for larger families and groups, Harborside features 5 beautifully appointed bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and comfortable accommodations for up to ten guests. The open-concept living area is perfect for gathering after a day in the sun, while the updated kitchen includes stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, a breakfast bar, and everything needed to prepare family meals.

    Step outside to enjoy the private heated pool, outdoor shower, BBQ grill, screened porch, and canal-front deck. Spend your mornings sipping coffee while watching manatees glide by, cast a fishing line from the private 16-foot dock, or launch a kayak for a peaceful paddle through the canals.

    The first-floor primary suite features a king bed and a luxurious ensuite with a soaking tub and walk-in shower. Additional bedrooms include another king suite, a queen bedroom, a twin bedroom with trundle, and a spacious bunk room that's perfect for kids. A Pack 'n Play and highchair are also provided for your youngest travelers.
