The open concept kitchen, dining and living areas are wonderful for preparing meals together or relaxing during the evening. High end appliances are sure to please every level of culinary expertise.
Stroll out on the large balcony and watch the sunset after a fun filled day at the beach. Glorious Daze faces west, so beautiful sunsets are practically guaranteed nightly. After the sun goes down, enjoy your private hot tub and pool.

Excellent rental

We enjoyed everything about our rental. The house was spotless when we arrived. The house location was excellent right near the beach (less than a minute walk). The beach was quiet. The pool and hot tub were a hit with the children. All of the beach toys, chairs and amenities were as good as advertised. The golf cart was helpful as well. Overall, this was the best rental we have had and everything was as good as advertised!

Great Place, Good Pool, and Spacious

Our stay at "Glorious Daze" was truly wonderful! The home offered everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The pool was a standout feature, providing a private oasis with beautiful scenic views. The kitchen was well-appointed and made it easy to prepare meals, though we took full advantage of the nearby grocery store and pharmacy for added convenience.Being so close to the beach was fantastic, and having the golf cart made trips back and forth a breeze. The location is ideal for both relaxation and practicality, striking a perfect balance between tranquility and convenience.We were the first guests to stay after a hurricane, and while there were a few mechanical hiccups with the home’s systems, the owner worked tirelessly to address them. Their dedication and responsiveness ensured we still had an enjoyable experience.Overall, "Glorious Daze" lives up to its name, offering a great combination of comfort, location, and charm. We’d gladly return!

Glorious Daze was all it was advertised to be! Beautiful!

The house was as beautiful as advertised and is a very short walking distance to what I would consider to be one of the most stunning, least crowded sections of Holmes Beach. It has everything you need for a day at the beach, so if you are flying in, there’s no need to bring anything but your suit and some sunscreen. The check-in and check-out processes were super easy and simple. We loved our week at Glorious Daze and would definitely stay again.

A perfect family vacation

The layout and home is just lovely. Our 2 and 4 year old had the best time navigating the ocean and the pool. Their favorite part was the easy golf cart rides to Donut Experiment, the pier, ice cream, and the close restaurants. We loved the location of the home. Everything we could have needed was within five minutes of the house. We appreciated the tranquility of the beach and other residents. I’m glad we chose Holmes over Bradenton or Bean Point. I really can’t gush enough. It was an enjoyable, easy, and relaxing vacation.

Wonderful Vacation Home

This place has it all from amenities to location! We’ve been to AMI several times and this house is by far the best we’ve stayed in. It’s a short walk to the beach, close to the grocery store, and close to several shopping places and restaurants. The trolley stop is also nearby to take you up and down the island for free. The golf cart was awesome to have as well. Would highly recommend this house!!

Family spring break

What wonderful vacation home. Beautiful pool and outdoor area. New mini golf course huge hit with 5 year old granddaughter. Loved the views of beach from the decks and short walk to beach. Having a gulf cart to use was so fun to get around and explore island. Loved our family time together. Hope to be back soon. Thanks for a great experience 👍

This house exceeded all expectations. The owner was immediately responsive for the two issues that arose. The kitchen setup was perfect for the four cooks in our group. Plenty of everything for complex meals and a short walk to Publix as a bonus. The beach is a very short walk, with a generous array of beach amenities. All in all a delightful home away for a week.

Sibling retirement getaway

Well stocked beautiful home. Owner was great to work with. Walkable to many places on the island, especially the trolley and Publix. It is not beachfront, limited gulf views - 2nd row. A tree was in the way of the main living area, but the primary suite view upstairs were fabulous. No direct access to beach, but a short walk to a public access. All the amenities were nice.

The house, the property, the wonderful pool and the proximity to the beach-less than a 2 minute walk- are exceptional! MaryEllen is a joy to work with! She's available for any questions and helpful information you might want to make your stay fun and relaxing. The house is well stocked including essentials you need to start your vacation.

Relaxing Stay

We returned to AMI the same week as we did last year, but fortunately no hurricane this time! The house was great as was the pool and the proximity to the beach. I wish we could have accessed the beach by walking straight from the house but it was a pretty minor inconvenience. We did have a problem with the air conditioning but Mary Ellen took care of it right away. This was the relaxing getaway that we all needed.

It was wonderful! Beautiful home, beautiful weather and all the conveniences you need. Mary Ellen was so helpful to check out the island after the hurricane to see if we would be able to come. And she was so responsive to questions along the way. The house was impeccably clean and great location near Publix, pharmacies and shops. Highly recommend!

We love family times together! We are blessed to be parents to 10 beautiful children and 4precious grandchildren. We have been in the rental business for 20 years. We like hearing from our guests that they had a wonderful vacation, made special memories with their loved ones, and look forward to returning in the future. We value the trust you place in us, when you rent one of our properties. Your time away is limited and we try our best to create a space you will enjoy!

Why they chose this property

Holmes Beach is simply beautiful. We love the combination of the soft, white, sugary sand and aqua waters of the Gulf of Mexico. The location of this house is perfect- just off the beach. The house was built with the architectural genius of H. Patterson Fletcher, a student at Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin Fellowship. It has amazingly unique features such as glass windows in the living room floor that look down upon the swimming pool, corner full length glass windows that allow you to take in the magnificent views of the beach, and it faces west so you catch the beauty of the setting sun each night.

What makes this property unique

Privacy! Nobody but you and your family/friends staying at this beach house. The pool is exclusively yours! You can relax with family or friends in the privacy of an entire house that belongs to you for the week! AMENITIES!! Golf cart, putting green, heated pool & spa! Beach chairs, umbrellas, wagon, bicycles, kayak, rafts, etc. Everything you need for your beach vacation.
