Pelican Perch: Tropical Paradise On The Beach Permit VRC17-000168


This quaint cottage is located "on the sand" - 3007 Avenue F Unit 4 at 30th Street on beautiful Holmes Beach. It is the upstairs unit (1 of 2) with a private deck and direct Gulf views. The cottage is very comfortable and sleeps 4 with plenty of space. The cottage is hidden away on a dead end street away from it all, yet close to shopping and restaurants.

The unit has an indoor and shared outdoor shower, fully equipped kitchen and a washer/dryer. The grounds are filled with exotic, tropical plants and a private guest path to the beautiful blue water and white sand beaches of Anna Maria Island.

There is a free trolley that picks up throughout the day and evening located just one block away. The unit is centrally located between Bradenton Beach and Anna Maria where there are also several shopping areas and many restaurants. St. Armand's Circle, Robinson Preserve, Bradenton's Riverwalk, DeSoto National Park and Ringling Museum all make for great local day trips!

Join us at Holmes Beach for the most beautiful sunsets and experience the tradition of Old Florida.

These are older, charming units built in the 50's that we continually update. Housekeepers clean at the beginning and end of each guest stay.

Can't beat the gulf views and the sunsets....

We also offer an downstairs unit #3 through Vrbo #327019.

Keywords: Beachhouse, condo, duplex, cottage, beachfront rental
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

A towel or two had some stains on it and basic cleaning done, but not anything excessive (fans thick with dust/corners of rooms, etc). Nothing major to complain about. Was as advertised for the most part (said dishwasher, but there wasn't) and had everything we needed for the week! We enjoyed the area, the house, and communication was great - I'd highly recommend and we'd def rent again!!

The overall stay was nice. Luckily, there was no one staying downstairs. The properties are on top of each other and one directly in front of this property. The parking is for two small vehicles on property. The mattress in the “master” is awful. Both of our backs are killing us. It is near public access so the beach can be crowded.
