Silver Surf- A stunning family home 2 blocks from the beach.

The minute you walk in the front door at Silver Surf you'll be convinced that you're about to experience the very best of Old Florida island living in one of the finest homes on Anna Maria Island.

This beautiful home on 68th Street, decorated perfectly in understated island elegance, provides the ideal arrangement both for privacy and for the gathering of family and friends in a larger vacation home. One master suite with a private bath is tucked away for privacy on one side. Two bedrooms with baths share a separate split level with their own living space. Yet another section of Silver Surf, with two large bedrooms and an additional niche for twin-over-twin bunk beds for the younger members of your clan, completes the sleeping arrangements.

The open central living area offers the perfect venue for gathering after a day of boating or at the beach. Or, take advantage of the beautiful outdoor living area, wonderfully landscaped and perfectly furnished to provide complete privacy and island comfort by the side of the giant heated pool with a whirlpool spa. Express your culinary talents on the patio gas grill or in the stunning gourmet kitchen.

Luxury and convenience meet here, from top-of-the-line washer/dryer to flat-screen cable TV's in the bedrooms and WiFi connectivity throughout. Silver Surf is just a very short stroll from the most beautiful beach in the country; you'll remember those sunsets for a lifetime.

And when you're ready, hop on your bikes or take a stroll and explore this wonderful island. The best shopping, dining, sightseeing, and all that Anna Maria Island has to offer is just a short walk or ride from Silver Surf, your headquarters for the perfect vacation-a vacation you'll never forget.

Our stay was great despite the cool Florida temperatures. The house was just as described and looked like the advertised photos. The Anna Maria community is inspiring - we will definitely visit again.

What a house!
I loved this house! We spent the weekend with my family here and couldn't be happier! The place is only a 2-minute walk to the beach, spacious enough for a family to sleep comfortably, and the pool and grill add a magnificent touch to this property! Communication with the property owner was great too. A/C had broken down when we arrived and they fixed it within the hour of letting them know of the issue. I will definitely stay here again if we visit AMI again!

Great Getaway Near Beach
We had a great family trip staying at the Silver Surf property. The house was spacious with 5 bedrooms so everyone could have their own place to stay. The pool and hot tub were wonderful and we used them everyday. Having an entrance to the beach just a short walk down the street was also a plus. We had a wonderful family trip staying here. Communication with the management team was very easy and they responded quickly whenever I had a question.

Fabulous House & Amazing Location
The Silver Surf home was perfect for our family getaway. The home is so bright and spacious! Beautiful big kitchen, dining and living room + everyone had their own bedroom and bathroom. The pool was perfect, too! The zero depth area was so nice for the little ones, everyone enjoyed the hot tub and the large umbrellas provided nice shady areas to get a break from the sun. A nice 5-minute walk to the beach was perfect to catch the sunset each night. We would highly recommend the Silver Surf for your stay on Anna Maria.

Beautiful and terrific home which we enjoyed thoroughly. One thing we would suggest is having the pool cleaned more than once a week due to droppings of the over hanging palms. Overall, we had a wonderful time and wouldn’t hesitate to return in the future.

This property is a dream. Our family had lots of room to spread out and a huge family space to be together. The pool was dirty because of a shedding tree and very hard rain, but we communicated with the rental company and they took care of it immediately. We are planning to rebook for next year!

Great!!
This is an awesome place for multiple families to stay together! The location is very nice, at most a 5 minute walk to the beach (for children with little legs). I will say the only thing lacking is beach supplies. 3 small chairs was pretty much it. We left behind a bunch of sand toys but you will need your own tent or umbrella. Overall we will definitely stay here again!

Nice location
There were pros and cons to this property. It was a large home that accommodated our family of 10 quite well. The location was very nice. Just a short 2 block walk to the beach and very close to many shops and restaurants. The pool was also a good size and had many toys/accessories to keep our family occupied for hours. Unfortunately, the home was not very clean when we arrived. Specifically, the floors and furniture. We spent some time immediately upon arrival vacuuming. There was sand EVERYWHERE and the carpet in the living room was filthy. The couches in the living room are very well worn and covered in stains. I understand it’s a rental, but I think it’s time for some upgrades to this property. It’s much more worn than the online pictures show. My last con is that there is very little shade outside. We were constantly moving furniture around as the day went on to be out of the sun. Overall, we had a nice vacation at this rental. With a few changes, this property would be perfect!

A bit too much pool shade
The house and location were great! The only downside was that the landscaping around the pool has grown a lot since the photo of the pool and we had no sun on the pool at all. Other than that a great family trip!!

Wonderful family vacation
We had a group of 9 people (5 adults, 4 kids) and we had a wonderful time in the house. The whole house was clean and organized when we got there. All the adults had king beds which was a huge plus. The short walk to the beach was perfect! The pool kept us entertained throughout our stay as well. We will definitely be back for another vacation stay!

Fun in Holmes Beach
The house was lovely and the pool area was quite nice but more attention could have been spent on cleaning the floors prior to our visit. We also felt that the kitchen could have been better equipped. We had to call for supplies and management responded quickly but cleaning crew should pay better attention to items such as kitchen scissors, measuirng spoons, kitchen mits and the such. Lastly it would have been nice to know of items at the house such as Xbox (we could have brought games), beach toys and wagon so we didn't have to bring extra items with us.

Beautiful house Great location
Location was amazing. House is beautiful. 3 minutes to beautiful beach. Only real issue is House was not stocked similar to other vrbo’s we have stayed in. No condiments. Basic cooking supplies. We had to buy own toilet paper. Also after long day of travel had to go to office to get code that could have been texted to us.

Beautiful House in a Great Location
Our group of 10 had a wonderful week at Silver Surf! The house is spacious and nicely decorated. There are three separate bedroom areas, which provided some good privacy — one up a short flight of stairs with two bedrooms, a sitting area, and a full bath, one at the front of the house with an en suite full bathroom, and two off of the living rom with two full bathrooms and a hallway area with two bunk beds (there’s no door for the bunk bed area). The beds were comfortable, and the linen service provided plenty of bath and beach towels. The pool is heated and large with a hot tub and lush tropical landscaping, and the beautiful beach is a short 5-minute walk at the end of the street. The management company was very responsive to our calls about a few minor items. Overall, it’s a great property!
