Holmes Beach sits at the center of Anna Maria Island, the low-key barrier island off Florida's Gulf Coast where golf carts outnumber traffic and the beach is the backyard for most of town. It's the kind of place where single-family homes on quiet canals, waterfront homes with dock access, and the tucked-away streets of Key Royale all sit within a short ride of the Gulf. Tampa is close enough for a day trip — roughly 68 minutes to downtown — but the island keeps its own slower rhythm.

This is a premium coastal market, and the numbers make that plain: 99 active listings with a median list price of $1,200,000 and 61 of them priced above a million. Homes here take time to sell — the median is 149 days on market, and sellers are netting about 93% of asking, so there's real room to negotiate. If seven figures is a stretch, watch the just reduced listings and browse by price, since active inventory starts as low as $379,000.

Holmes Beach is in Manatee County, Florida.

Holmes Beach real estate FAQs

Is Holmes Beach a good place to live?+

It's a walkable, golf-cart-friendly beach town at the center of Anna Maria Island, drawing both year-round residents and second-home owners. Anna Maria Elementary is the most common assigned school, and the island's small footprint keeps the Gulf close from nearly every street. Tampa International Airport is about 71 minutes away when you need to travel.

Is Holmes Beach expensive?+

Yes — it's a premium coastal market with a median list price of $1,200,000 and 61 of the 99 active listings priced above a million. That said, inventory ranges widely, from $379,000 up to $16,750,000, so there's more entry-level opportunity than the median suggests. The luxury homes ($1m+) segment dominates the top of the market.

What do homes cost in Holmes Beach?+

Active listings run a median of $1,200,000 at about $931 per square foot, with a median home size around 1,536 square feet. Over the last 12 months, 203 homes sold at a median price of $1,093,750. If you're looking below the median, the townhomes & condos can offer a more accessible way in.

How is the Holmes Beach market right now?+

It's a patient market — homes take a median of 149 days to sell and sellers are getting about 93% of asking on average. With 203 sales over the past year against 99 active listings, buyers have both selection and negotiating room. Keep an eye on open houses this week to see what's actually moving.

What about HOA fees and property taxes?+

The median HOA runs about $713 per month, though that varies widely depending on whether a property is a condo or a stand-alone home. Property taxes come in around $11,060 per year at these price points, and median rent sits near $3,545 per month. For lower-fee options, single-family homes often carry little or no HOA compared with condo buildings.
