Hurricane Update:
The entire complex is built on pillars more than 20 feet off the ground. The condo sustained no damage, we have been accepting guests for several weeks, the pool has been completely drained, acid washed, refilled and we have installed a new pump, a new filter and all new equipment. The pool has never looked better, the beaches are open, the restaurants are open and the weather is fantastic.
Look in almost any direction, and there are views of the bay, the gulf, and even downtown Sarasota. Steps away from the white sand beaches of Gulf of Mexico, this 2 bedroom/2 bathroom condo at Baywatch is located high up in the treetops near the shore of Anna Maria Sound. Renters can enjoy the peek-a-boo bay views from the oversized open-aired balcony.

Excellent choice for our stay in the Bradenton area for a sports event at IMG. Close to what we needed and great proximity to the beach. We enjoyed exploring all that Anna Maria had to offer. The condo was well appointed, clean and very comfortable. Host was extremely responsive and communication was top notch. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

The place was very clean. The location was great. We could see both the bay and the ocean. Walking to the ocean only took a couple of minutes. The management company was so helpful answering any questions I had within minutes. The grounds were well kept. There were about 20 steps to get to unit but we managed fine. We would go back sgain

The space was a perfect size , plenty of room for four adults . Location was good. Enjoyed the peacefulness of the area but close enough to walk to restaurants and shops. We were provided with everything we needed for the beach too which was very helpful. The building could use a touch up, looks slightly run down .

Beautiful! Our family absolutely loved this stay. The condo looked exactly like the pictures and had so many amenities for the kids including board games, beach toys, fishing items and more. Pool was crystal clear and the dock outback was perfect for fishing and even provided a fillet table and hose. 100% would recommend to anyone looking for a wonderful stay and the hosts were great people. Thank you for a wonderful family vacay!
