3.5 stars

Mello on the Beach in Holmes Beach, Anna Maria Island, is a small, design-led beachfront stay with a playful retro mood and a proper laid-back feel. Set directly on Manatee Beach, it brings together one, two and three-bedroom rentals with colourful kitchenettes, terrace access or private patios, plus an easy mix of beach days and downtime by the heated communal pool. There’s a lawn for games and hanging out, BBQ grills and a fire pit for easy evenings, and handy extras like beach chairs, umbrellas and coolers ready for the day ahead. With 11 rentals in total, it feels intimate rather than busy, and the family-friendly setup works well whether you’re travelling as a couple, with friends or with the kids in tow.

“Everything g you need in the perfect spot”

Mello is in the perfect location. Steps to the beach, fun surf shop and great burger spot. Best sunsets! Easy firepit to enjoy on property as well as a great pool. The unit comes with everything you need and is clean and well kept. This spot is a favorite of our family with 3 teenagers.

“Easy and Beautiful Spring Break”

Best location. Comfortable and easy access to everything and retro rooms and full kitchen. Publix close and beach steps away

“Above expectations!”

Jan 09, 2026Stephane L

We travel a lot, but I must say that Mello on the Beach is amongst the best places we have rented. Great service. Clear instructions. Impeccable and well maintained apartment (we rented Vitamin Sea). Extremely well furnished and very nicely decorated. Great, clean and warm pool. Amazing location steps away from the beach and best sunsets ever. Lots of nice amenities. We will definitely come back!
