Beautiful, Gulf-Front Home on Bean Point--Halcyon House

As seen in Coastal Living Magazine, this is a quintessential, beachfront home on desirable Bean Point with with direct access to Bean Point Beach. You will enjoy panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico from your two balconies. The house has a charming, cottage-style decor with an open floor plan. The living level has a full size, modern kitchen, a dining area, a half bath and a great room that opens up to a generous balcony for enjoying the breath-taking sunsets over the ocean. Halcyon, which means calm, peaceful, and tranquil, is exactly how you will feel during your stay at my house.

Family Memories

Our family loved our stay in this sweet costal cottage! The home was so inviting, warm and comfortable! We had front row seats to the most AMAZING sunsets EVERY evening! The weather was not as warm and friendly as we had hoped but being right on the beach gave us every opportunity to grab some beach time whenever possible! We would love to stay here again and highly recommend this coastal cottage to all beach lovers!!

A Beautiful Winter Respite

I'm a "regular" at Halcyon House--eight Februarys and looking forward to returning next year. All five-star ratings are well deserved. The house is meticulously maintained and the view from the porches is spectacular in all types of weather. Comfortable. Comfortable. Comfortable.

Simply Spectacular

This property was such a great vacation home. It was clean, on the beach and stocked with pretty much anything we could need for the beach. I have absolutely nothing negative to say about our stay at this luxurious home, thank you!

As good as it gets

Halcyon was as good as advertised. By far the best vrbo we have rented. Bean point is special if u want to avoid resorts. Only disappointing part of the week was a meal at Sandbar. AMI is outstanding choice for vacation!

Unique location on an unmatchable beach

We have stayed at Halcyon House many times and keep coming back because it is restful, homey, has beautiful art throughout, and an unmatchable panoramic view. Kelly is a fantastic host, too.

Wonderful home in a perfect location

Was a perfect place for a large family. Adjacent to the beach with a 3-minute walk to the water. Less than 15 minutes to Bean point. The property was clean and spacious with a nice “beachy” vibe. Appliances were new and easy to use, with lots of beach accessories available for use that were stored in the garage. We are already looking at coming back next year.

Perfect Paradise

The property is nicely located near Bean Point and Pine Street on the north end of the island. The gorgeous views of the Gulf are unobstructed and plenty of balcony access to enjoy them all day long. The living space is well placed and functional for many people. Public beach access is adjacent, which wasn't too intrusive. Just a few issues with people using the driveway to unload and load for their beach day. The amenities were well stocked-found everything we needed. Can’t wait to come back.

Excellent getaway!

This was our first trip to AMI. We had such a lovely vacation and the best part was staying at this beautiful property. Kelly, the homeowner, is incredibly nice, responsive and accommodating! The property was clean, beautiful and exactly as the pictures and descriptions online depict. The house was very well stocked with everything we needed! We loved being so close to the beach! We will definitely be reaching back out to book a stay at this home in the very near future!

Family Time in Paradise!

The Halcyon home is gorgeous…and the views from 2nd and 3rd floor balconies are breathtaking. Anna Marie Island is such a quaint beach town that we visit each year. Staying at Kelly’s home made this year’s trip so memorable. She pays attention to detail in her decor, the beds are comfy, and she provides bikes, beach umbrellas, and lots of other amenities! Kelly is gracious and friendly and communicates quickly. We loved our stay! Thank you for a wonderful family vacation!

We had a wonderful stay! The home was just perfect, the location easy walking distance to shops, restaurants...So comfortable - the beds, the porch, the living room. The kitchen was well equipped. The Host was easily accessible and super helpful. Our flight was delayed and arriving very late. She went to house to leave an outside light on for us. So appreciated! We look forward to returning!

A Magical Place

This year was my seventh at Halcyon House, staying four weeks each time. Clearly I love the place! Kelly is always on hand to quickly answer any questions, and she even anticipates issues that could impact her guests (e.g. sending a text re a bridge closure on my day of departure). The house is well equipped and totally comfortable, and the neighborhood is quiet day and night. I haven’t arrived home yet, but I’m already looking forward to my next visit.
