2BR · 2BA · Sleeps 6 · Townhome · Two King Beds · Private Rec Room · Heated Pool · 2 Blocks to Gulf · Walk to Publix · Free Trolley · In-Unit Washer/Dryer · Sleeper Sofa
Two king bedrooms — both of them — and a private lower-level rec room that changes how a beach week actually works. La Playita 7 is a Holmes Beach vacation rental two blocks from the Gulf where the layout is bigger than the bedroom count suggests and the heated pool is waiting when you come back from the sand.
The rec room is the practical differentiator. Beach gear lives down there — no sand tracked through the main living spaces, no tripping over chairs and wagons. It works as overflow space for larger groups, a quiet retreat when the main floor is busy, or simply the room that makes a week with kids genuinely manageable.
Two bedrooms, both with king beds — a configuration that works for two couples or any group where everyone wants a proper bed. The living room sleeper sofa handles the remaining guests, sleeping six total. Two full bathrooms. The updated kitchen has modern appliances and everything needed for full meals at home. In-unit washer and dryer. High-speed WiFi.
The beach is two blocks away. Publix, dining, bars, and ice cream shops are within easy walking distance. The free Anna Maria Island trolley stops nearby for exploring the full island without moving your car. Guests who find La Playita 7 tend to come back — some for multiple stays running.
La Playita 7 requires a one-week minimum stay. Not pet-friendly.

Would Recommend to a Friend
This was an overall decent place to stay. A couple of bugs in the house early on, but no more after that. The lower level is not accessible from inside the upper main level. Not a big deal, just a surprise. We picked this location due to it's proximity to other family staying in a place very close by.The beach was a short walk and the restaurants and shopping were also super close. We would stay here again in the future.

Perfect location, clean unit!
We enjoyed our stay at La Playita. It is a two minute walk to public beach, Publix a block away to stock up and restaurants galore. We had quite an age and ability range and all had fun. Would highly recommend!

Great location
Near beach, restaurants and grocery store. We enjoyed walks on the beach, sunset cruise and friendly neighborhoods. The unit does have tall stairs so make sure you are capable of carrying your suitcase and climbing stairs. There is also a great pool.

Amazing place to stay!
We stayed in this unit for our 2 week vacation and it was incredible. We didn’t want to leave. We would definitely stay in this unit again. It was clean, cozy, inviting, and nice. The pool was amazing - right outside the door and we were the only ones using it the entire 2 weeks. The place felt private but was so close to everything. We couldn’t have asked for a better location. An extremely short walk to the beach and Publix, and a short drive to each end of the island.
My one and only complaint is the beds were so hard. They were not comfortable at all. But that would not keep me from staying here again, that’s how much we enjoyed it. The rec room was a nice added bonus as well. We enjoyed having that to store all the beach toys.
