House is good but not great, especially at this price point.Pros• The backyard and pool are absolutely beautiful• Bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and comfortable• Great amenities overall—the kitchen was fully stocked and very user-friendly• The fire pit was a wonderful addition and made the space an excellent spot for gathering when temperatures dropped at night• Communication was excellent—you were quick to respond, and we truly appreciated the gift you dropped off for the inconvenienceThis house has so much potential with just a few small tweaks!Cons / Suggestions• The outdoor kitchen is nicely designed but was unusable due to heavy bugs. We tried twice to eat out there but had to come inside.• The outdoor stream had stagnant water, which seemed to attract bugs. Even after buying bug spray, several guests were still getting bitten while relaxing by the pool.• Bugs were an issue inside as well—half our group ended up with 10 bites each. A professional pest treatment before future bookings would make a big difference.• A few unfinished projects and tools left around created some tripping hazards.

The check-in process could not have been smoother. The home is located in just off Cortez, which makes it easy to get to the beaches and other places throughout Bradenton. We were so fortunate that it was just ten minutes from the friends we came to visit. The pool is delightful. One of the reasons I choose this property over others is because there are enough trees to offer some shade while being in the pool and enough sun to make it feel warm. It is worth the price for this feature.We truly appreciated all the communications that took place and were grateful for the suggestions offered in the binder that is located at the property.

Amazing stay!!

We had such an amazing time during our stay. The house is amazing and in great shape. It’s stocked with all of the essentials from kitchen supplies to beach supplies down to shampoo conditioner and body wash. The pool is awesome and the patio bar area is super nice. The treehouse is an awesome spot to relax and watch the sun set. The house is close to everything including beaches and restaurants. The only thing I would recommend are new beds and mattresses in the master bedroom, they were a bit hard. We will definitely be back for another stay at 200 Palms Way!!

Lovely property. 10 minutes from the beach. The family thoroughly enjoyed the pool. Enjoyed many cook outs. Would have benefited from checking google street view to appropriately set expectations for the neighborhood. 25 a day to heat the pool, but worth it given the varying February temperatures.

About the host

Hosted by Brian & Stacey

Host profile image
Stacey is a high school history teacher and Brian works in corporate finance and we have 4 children from 6 to 14 years old. We love learning more about the world including other people, cultures and history. Family is important to us and we love going on adventures and making memories together.

Why they chose this property

We purchased a place where we could escape from the grind of every day life to relax and make memories with our children near the beach. The tropical vibe, the tree house in a mango tree, and the close distance to the beach remind us that we can relax, turn off our phones, and enjoy the beauty of Florida. And while we love our time here, when we are not here, we would love for this place to give other families a place to escape to and make memories with their own families.

What makes this property unique

Our kids absolutely love the large heated pool surrounded by a small stream and lots of palm trees. The kids enjoy seeing the lizards run around by the stream and around the rest of the backyard. It definitely reminds you that you are in the sunshine state. The kids have made great memories helping pick fresh mangos from the treehouse in the summer.

Away from the house, we love visiting the Cortez beach (only 3 miles away)! We have a wagon, cooler, chairs, beach towels, and a large beach umbrella you can use to have a wonderful day at the beach. Near Cortez beach the kids love to get souvenirs along Bridge Street and we like stopping at the various restaurants nearby with live music at night.
