2BR · 3BA · Sleeps 6 · Pet-Friendly · Half Block to Gulf · King Bed · Carport Parking · Shared Laundry · Keyless Entry · Quiet North Holmes Beach

Half a block. That's the distance from Bollinger Duplex A to the Gulf of Mexico — one of the shortest beach walks in northern Holmes Beach. Walk out the door, cross the street, and you're on white sand with miles of beach stretching in either direction.
The location is the whole story here. Northern Holmes Beach is the quieter end of the island — residential, unhurried, and away from the busier stretches closer to Holmes Beach center. Guests who find this end of AMI tend to come back for it specifically.

Sleeps six across two bedrooms plus a den. The master has a king bed. The second bedroom has two twins. The enclosed den has a futon — a flexible space that works for kids, overflow guests, or a private reading room when nobody needs it for sleeping. The living room sofa bed handles a sixth guest comfortably. Three full bathrooms means the morning routine never becomes a bottleneck for a group of six.

The furnishings have been updated and the space is comfortable and well-configured for a week-long stay. A full kitchen handles meals at home. A shared laundry room on the property means packing for a week doesn't mean overpacking. Carport parking keeps one car covered and out of the sun. Keyless entry means no key pickup, no key return — just arrive and walk in.

Pets are welcome. There is no fenced yard — worth knowing if you're traveling with a dog who needs a contained outdoor space. The beach and the surrounding neighborhood are excellent walking territory for leashed pets, and the half-block Gulf access makes morning and evening walks genuinely easy.

The free Anna Maria Island trolley stops nearby for exploring the full length of the island without moving your car once you've parked.

Bollinger Duplex A requires a one-week minimum stay with parking for two cars.

Please be a good neighbor by keeping the noise to a respectful level during the day and night. Excessive and unreasonable noise can deprive neighbors of the peaceful enjoyment of their private property
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Enjoy the recreation opportunities such as a water park or make use of other amenities including barbecue grills.
Limited parking is available onsite.

Bollinger House side A

We have been vacationing in Holmes Beach, FL, for over 10 years and usually stay in the Walker Cottage on Avenue F, which we’ve always been very happy with. This time, we stayed in the Bollinger House and it was wonderful. The house offers two master bedrooms, a full kitchen, a third bathroom in the laundry room, and both gas and charcoal grills. We loved the patio with its table and chairs, the carport, and the abundance of beach necessities provided. The yard is great for walking your dog. The only recommendation we have is to add a blender for the kitchen. We are looking forward to our next stay at the Bollinger House!

Its an old house but good one!

It is an old house but has the space needed for a big family and a dog. It is in the perfect location and the management was good.

Location, Location!!

Such a Great location, we walked across the street each evening to take in the beautiful sunsets. Pet friendly. Enjoyed the grill and covered patio immensely. Very Comfortable beds and linen service was nice, it was great to know linens are cleaned and sanitized. Could use a few updates overall but we had everything we needed to enjoy the week. Thank you...

Vintage Privacy Minutes Away from the Beach

Although this is a duplex, we felt like we had complete privacy since the entrances are on opposite sides of the property. The location was perfect - although we were initially worried about the traffic on the main road and being across from the bus stop - the sweet neighborhood and the closeness to the beach far outweighed those concerns. The property was clean and bug free. It is obviously an older home, which we appreciate. You have the feeling of being in a beloved home that has welcomed multiple generations; books and games filled shelves, blankets in closets, a well-equipped kitchen, beach floats in the laundry room (as well as a third bathroom!) Loved the vintage tiled bathrooms and the aqua bathtub. Tile floors throughout made sweeping the sand out easy. Everything was on one floor - easy in and out with a dog and a toddler. Carport has an outdoor table and four chairs; around the corner is a spray hose and an outdoor shower. Both bedrooms are spacious with large walk-in closets with lots of hangers (we set up our toddler's pack and play in one) and a whole wall of counter space, drawers and mirror. Wonderful! Only upgrades I could recommend would be a fresh coat of white paint on the interior walls and cabinets, gray paint on the stained wooden doors and trim, and reupholster or slip cover the sofas. Leave all the vintage light fixtures and the formica - such great vintage charm! (We designers cannot help ourselves from re-designing!) Loved this house. And thank you so much for allowing (larger) dogs! It was a perfect family vacation!
