VRC19-000216
3BR · 2BA · Sleeps 6 · Private Pool (Unheated) · Boat & Jet Ski Trailer Parking · Screened Patio · Gas Grill · Pet-Friendly (Small Dog) · Ground Level · Washer/Dryer · Near Tennis & Boat Ramp

A ground-level unit in the heart of Holmes Beach — no stairs, private pool in the backyard (unheated), and parking that accommodates a boat or jet ski trailer alongside the two regular vehicles. For guests arriving with watercraft, that last detail is the one that makes Sea-Esta the right choice.

The pool is private and unheated — worth knowing for guests booking in cooler months. The screened patio wraps the outdoor space with a gas grill and ample seating — the right setup for evenings after a beach day without the bugs. The beach is a few blocks away. Tennis courts and a boat ramp are convenient to the property.

Three bedrooms sleep six. The master has a king bed. The first guest room has two twin beds. The third bedroom has a sleeper sofa — the living space for the remaining guests, worth knowing if a proper guest bedroom is the priority. Two full bathrooms. Flat-screen TVs in every room. Full-size washer and dryer in the unit.

One small dog is welcome with a pet fee — contact IVP for the current fee before booking with a pet.

Sea-Esta requires a one-week minimum stay with parking for two vehicles plus a boat or jet ski trailer.

Perfect house for a family of 4. Loved that it had a wagon and beach chairs, super handy! House included a lot of extra house items (paper towels, trash bags, etc) so that was pretty awesome, too. Had a wonderful week on AMI! Would definitely stay here again!

Great place and great price

We liked everything about this house except the living room couch. It was not comfortable and did not have side tables. Other than that it was great! The pool was small but we swam every day and we appreciated all of the things for the beach. We also LOVED the washer and dryer!

All we needed for a stay at the beach

The property was clean and the beds were very comfy. The neighborhood is nice but it’s about a 10-15 minute walk to the beach. The layout of the house is great but the third bedroom is really just a trundle bed and tv and you walk through it to get to the pool. It wasn’t a problem for us as we only needed 2 bedrooms and it would work for kids but I don’t think adults would be comfortable there. The house had everything we needed, a well stocked kitchen and all appliances worked well. We had problems with a shower door but they were out to fix it the next morning. All in all, it’s a good place but it could use a refresh and update. The couch isn’t the most comfortable and the recliners at each end don’t work. Nothing that could be fixed during our stay but needs updated for the future. There were brand new beach chairs and a great cart to haul things. The pool wasn’t heated but we enjoyed lounging there in the Florida sunshine!

Needs some up dating

Rented for 5 weeks. Master Bath: tub would not hold water, and shower not the best either. Master Bed was comfortable. That was the good thing about the place! Patio: needed a good cleaning!! Cushions very dirty, floor dirty. We cleaned the grill, best we could before using. Umbrella in table broken. Beach chairs and cart were terrible broken dirty and unusable. (We did complain about this and by the end of our stay chairs and cart were replaced. Living Room furniture very dirty. Complained and they got cleaned our last week there! Recliners In sofa do not work. They were broken and not fixable. We’re moving on ‘

Beautiful little home

We wanted to be on island close Beaches. This home did that. Pool was major selling point our kids, they enjoy swimming every evening. Only thing wrong was the living room and one bedroom TV didn't work.( I think it was the cable) But the rest of the home was beautiful and quiet neighbors.

Spotless but not manicured

First thing. This place is spotless and plenty of room..2nd thing..on the outside you will notice this is a duplex with a carport modified into an additional bedroom..but looks nice...3rd some of the flooring is new and the master bedroo. Flooring needs some attention when you first walk in.... as stated pool is not heated would be perfect for us even though its a small pool but it was too cold to enjoy. You will notice some not so perfect things of this house but if your looking for convenient and clean place to stay this would be perfext for you...PS we loved how close the bus and trolley..just three houses down...overall we had a lovely time in this rental.

Simply Satisfied

This property was much as advertised, except We had to replace all the batteries in the remote controls and thermostat. The maintenance man had to be called twice and the second time did not arrive because it was New Years, so we did not have air conditioning that evening. The pool is not heated so we could not use it and the master baths whirlpool jets were non-functioning. Other than that this property is close to the beach and restaurants.

Great affordable family friendly rental in AMI

Our stay in Sea Esta was awesome! We have 3 small children (5, 3 and 10months) and the 3 bedroom duplex worked perfect. It is in a great area of AMI, I would suggest a bike or golf cart rental. The 3rd bedroom with the trundle beds was the only access out the back of the home to the screened in porch and pool. I was service about the security of the door because my oldest 2 kids were in there but there was not only a dorr lock but a door chain at the top as well so that was wonderful! There was a nice walkway and access to the pool out the front door for naptime happy hour though 😊 the only downside of this rental is that the pool was not heated. I think if the weather is warm enough it's not a problem but our first couple days there it dipped down into the 60s so the pool was quite cool until the end of the week. Overall it was a wonderful stay, the property management company was super responsive and we loved AMI! We will be back!
