About this property

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.

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!

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.

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.

About the host

Hosted by Kelly French

Host profile image
I first sunk my toes into the soft AMI sand in 2013 and immediately knew this is where I was meant to be. The following year, I purchased my beach house overlooking the Gulf on beautiful Bean Point (Halcyon House.) While I enjoy making memories at my house with family and friends, it also brings be great joy opening it up to others to enjoy. In 2019 I decided to make the island my permanent home.

Why they chose this property

My house is on the desirable north end of the 7 mile island within walking distance of Anna Maria's unique shops and numerous restaurants. It is a quiet, residential area on what I believe is the most beautiful beach in the world.
