Seashore Castle by Anna Maria Vacations
Duplex in Bradenton Beach, FL
VPL20-000010

One row from Gulf Drive, across the street from the Gulf of Mexico and direct beach access, Seashore Castle spoils you with truly exceptional Gulf and Bay views in nearly every room! The opulent bedrooms – THREE KINGS – each have GULF-VIEW BALCONIES.

Your semi-private jetted spa flowing into a saltwater pool, poolside dining area, and 360-degree panoramic rooftop deck – perfect for cocktails and sunsets on the Gulf, as well as coffee and sunrises over the Bay! – are accessible only by you and the attached villa. (Seashore Castle is the entire Gulf side).

Bask in the pinnacle of elegance with marble flooring, granite surfaces and solid wood cabinetry throughout, as well as designer stainless-steel professional appliances in TWO FULL GOURMET KITCHENS WITH SEPARATE LIVING AREAS – one set up like a bar featuring a gaming table (chess, checkers, backgammon, blackjack) and extensive movie library with theater sound. Speaking of sound, each level has its own WHOLE-HOME audio with controls in every room – just connect wirelessly to create the perfect mood for your dream vacation!

In addition to a PRIVATE ELEVATOR, Seashore Castle boasts eight floor-to-ceiling sliding doors, four private balconies, and premium linen service with fresh bath towels, beach towels and bedding for you. Enjoy SIX ROKU TVs – one in each bedroom, one in each living space and one in the GARAGE GAME ROOM, which offers a third refrigerator, PING-PONG TABLE and grill right outside your door.

NEW: PRIVATE TURFED GAME ZONE WITH CORNHOLE AND LIGHTED THREE-HOLE PUTT-PUTT!

Your primary bedroom suite has an electric fireplace, huge wood walk-in closet, Jacuzzi tub, jetted shower and dual-sink vanity with lighted makeup counter. The second bathroom also has a stunning walk-in shower with jets; PLUS, there’s an additional half-bath powder and laundry room for your convenience.

This property delivers on every level with tons of extras like a HEATED OUTDOOR SHOWER, several lounging areas, games and books for rainy days… and, of course, everything you need for the beach!

Seashore Castle is ideally located mid-island on a narrow swath just three-blocks wide from Gulf to Bay. If you exhaust the neighborhood’s dining and activities, the free trolley stops around the corner. And, just two blocks away is a Bay-side park. You'll also benefit from one of the island's most popular restaurants and one of only four convenience stores right on the block.

With nearly 3,000 total square-feet under your roof, you will have an abundance of space to sink into your sumptuous surroundings and cash in on the opportunity to experience a luxurious island lifestyle at its finest – offered exclusively at Seashore Castle.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The house was great, everything was found as listed. The area is good, it's in the middle of the island so you're about 10 minutes from Bridge Street and 10/15 minutes, depending on traffic, from Pine Ave. The house has everything you need for the beach that's directly across the street, which is a beautiful beach! We didn't really use the pool much as it's a cramped space and doesn't get much sun. So if the other side of the house is booked, it can be a little awkward to be back there. Our kids are 14 and 11 and they got a ton of use out of the gaming area in the garage, the putting green and the public basketball court and pickleball court that is at the end of the street. We would stay here again!

Sounds like you made the most of your stay at Seashore Castle by Anna Maria Vacations, Erica! Being right in the middle of the island really does make it easy to get everywhere and having that beautiful beach just across the street is such a win. We’re glad the home had everything you needed and that the kids got so much use out of the game space and nearby courts—that’s always a hit! We also appreciate the helpful notes about the pool area, that kind of feedback is great for future guests. Thanks for staying with us and we’d be happy to have you back anytime for another fun island stay!

Spacious, Comfortable enjoyable Home

Wow, we had hot beach days, cool windy days and a little in between days! But this home was the place to be. We had 6 adult and one infant and every one had their own privacy. On the hot days the beach across the street was the place to be, cooler days we hung out at the hot tub/pool area. It is within walking distance of nice restaurants and also had a nice kitchen and outdoor grilling area. It was a good week!

Great location and space in Bradenton Beach

We had a fantastic stay at this property! It is in a perfect location one block from the beach! Everything was as described in the listing, and the management company was responsive. We were limited in our ability to use the pool as it needed to be cleaned, so we were only able to use it on the last day. This was not a huge problem for us, as we spent most of our time on the beach! The property has two kitchens and all the amenities you need, although we did not cook meals, but only breakfast and snacks. It is close to everything on the island and only a brief ride to the airport. We will definitely be back!
