Pool highlight
Heated pool
Holmes Beach Rental with Heated Pool
A private pool is the centerpiece of a Florida beach vacation: swim before breakfast, rinse off after the sand, and unwind at night without leaving your rental.
It’s also a big upgrade over hotel stays—your own space, your own schedule, no crowds.
Pool heat is added to online bookings by default ($150 for a one-week stay; the office adjusts it for longer stays). You can decline it - just ask the office. The pool sits beneath mature shade trees, so the manager recommends heat in any season, and heated water is kept at no more than 84°F.
Sandbox Beach House vibe
SandboxBeachHouse.com is relaxed and family-friendly—built for real beach-house time, not hotel schedules.
You get a private saltwater pool, with pool heat added to online bookings ($150 for one week), plus the outdoor bar pavilion, a hammock and outdoor Bose speakers.
One dog up to 35 lb is welcome with approval, so your small pup can join the vacation too.

- • After a day on the Holmes Beach sand, the pool becomes the perfect reset—cool down, snack, repeat.
- • Evening swims feel extra special when the sky starts to glow near sunset.
