Very charming and spacious 2-bedroom condo was perfect for my husband and I to vacation with my 88-yr old Mom. Loved the inviting courtyard, easy parking, small but very functional kitchen.
Thanks for the review! We do think we have one of the best locations on the Island. Close enough to everything to be walkable and convenient but far enough to stay quiet and relaxing.
Perfect place for a getaway room clean, Close to everything. We will be back for the third time

It was great having you back! Thanks for mentioning how close we are to everything i.e., beach, shops, and best restaurants. So many people drive to historic Bridge St only to spend so much valuable time searching for a parking space. Easy 5 min walk there from our most sought after location. Just about a 50 second walk to beach and about 40 seconds to our fishing dock! Thanks too for mentioning the cleanliness of our beautiful rental. Every surface is sanitized before every visit. Thanks for being part of our family of guests who return again and again!! See you soon!!
Great location. Great place. Found a few more excellent restaurants too.

A quiet oasis in the middle of all that"s happening in Bradenton Beach.
The owners provided everything we could possibly need to enjoy the beaches and the fishing pier. The tropical courtyard isolates this property from the road so could imagine we were on our private island.

Thanks for the great review. I love your description of how the tropical courtyard privacy from road makes it feel like being on a private island! Great to that you have already booked your next stay in just a month from now! We look forward to having you back!!
We really enjoyed this spot! Tucked away in a little garden, it was quiet and private even though it was within a group of properties. Easy access to the beach, lots of chairs and umbrellas are provided (and carts to carry everything)! We loved our stay and time on the island. This will be a favorite vacation destination for years to come!

Awesome! Location, location, location.
My daughter and I came down from Michigan for a long weekend. We loved our cute little cottage. It was perfect for us, very cozy and quiet. Great location steps from the beach and the Harbor. Also within walking distance to the shops and restaurants on and near Bridge Street. The cottage was beautifully decorated and very clean. Would definitely visit again!

Thanks for the great review and especially for mentioning our most sought after location steps from the beach and our dock on the Bay. Also within walking distance to the shops and restaurants on and near historic Bridge Street. That our cottage was beautifully decorated and very clean. We appreciate having bragging rights to cleanest vacation rentals on Anna Maria Island. Last but not least we are delighted that you will definitely visit again!
This was my second time staying in this place and I’m really enjoyed my stay the only problem this time was with the parking lot people park their cars in my spot.
We all had a great time at this property and found it to be clean and comfortable. This is my second stay in this general location, and the constant improvements made at the property are apparent. The location close to one of my preferred beaches on the island is icing on the cake. Communication with the property manager was pleasant. Easy to recommend!

We know you have many choices when deciding on a vacation rental. So, when a guest says our vacation rental was everything they wanted and it was a great choice, nothing pleases us more. we look forward to having you back again!
Great spot for our family of 5. Location can’t be beat if you’re looking to spend a lot of time on the beach. Easy to walk down to bridge street for meals, dessert, and put put golf. All the wagons, chairs, and beach toys are available so you don’t have to worry about packing those. Space is small (as mentioned by other reviews) but we spent more time out. Our three young kids (6, 4, and 2) were able to share the king bed.
Beautiful property, but Bistro table with high chairs impossible for us old folks.

Perfect for us
We had a terrific time. Location was excellent for our quick 4 day escape trip. This was a first visit to the island and we will return. Owner was extremely timely in answering all of our email questions. The dupluex was perfect for our visit and we will return. Beaches were gorgeous and so was the weather. Many thanks for sharing your terrific vacation home with us.

We LOVE having you stay our properties!! We appreciate that you always notice how extra clean our rentals are! We exceed CDC cleaning standards which is so important today! We look forward to having you back again to your home away from home!
This property is located directly across the street from the beach. An easy walk even with a wagon full of chairs, umbrella, cooler and towels. Speaking of beach essentials, they are provided! The only complaint we had was the lack of seating in the living room.
