Great Condo and Location

My husband and I spent 12 days at Gone Coastal and loved it. We enjoyed many walks on the beach and in the surrounding area. The condo is well equipped and the location is great. Grocery store is close; we ate in some nights and enjoyed area restaurants other times. Wonderful vacation!

Bradenton Beach Condo - Anna Marie Life

My family of 6 stayed in this condo from March 25, 2023 to April 1, 2023. The condo was very nice and in a terrific location. It was right in the center of all of the beaches with walking access to a beach across the street. Central to shopping, restaurants. The pool was very nice and bigger than most properties.

Family Vacay Fun in the Sun!

This was our 5th time back to the Island, the condo was great. It had everything we needed. All the extra beach toys and chairs were a huge plus, it made beach days much easier since we were just across the street. Location is a amazing, the kids loved the pool as well. Upon arriving we did have a small issue with the air conditioning, but by the next day the issue was resolved and we were able to continue having an amazing stay.

We love Anna Maria

This property is perfect for spending time on the ocean and enjoying beautiful Anna Maria. We have stayed at many units in Runaway Bay over the years and this unit was excellent. Appreciated the beach wagon for our ocean needs right across the street and it was very clean and comfortable. We would rent it again in a heartbeat.

Misunderstanding of dog policy

Property was great. Brought our 8 year old chocolate lab which we were told to remove from the property because she was over the weight limit. This cost us $53 a night to board her. Would recommend that the pet policy is clearly outlined as we did pay the pet fee.

Great location & neighborhood, but…

The area is nice! It is conveniently close to the beach, and other amenities. It could have definitely been cleaner. The washer only had hot hot water which ruined some of our clothes. There were missing blinds and some of the blinds didn’t close completely. We were on a ground level condo so you could see straight into the rooms and living room. The fridge and freezer were not cleaned. They still had food crumbs in them from the last visitors. Overall, we made our stay work for the 5 days, and dealt with the flaws! It was a cute condo!

Hi Brittany, Thank you so much for your review. Our goal is to welcome you to a clean home and we apologize that these issues were missed. I reviewed your reservation and did not find a record that we were contacted to address these items during your stay. We would have been happy to send the cleaners back to the property and had our maintenance team troubleshoot the blinds and washing machine. We would always like the opportunity to correct any issue you may have encountered. I have forwarded your comments to our quality control team to review further. We would love for you to give us another chance and to welcome you back again. Please reach out to me personally, when you are ready to plan your next vacation.

Excellent Location

Very good location. Just a few steps to the pool and to the beach. Apartment is well equipped. Also, with beach things like beach towels, chairs, umbrellas, cool box, body board and a beach wagon. The king and queen size bed are very comfortable. The mattress and the pillow on the single bed in the guest room are soggy. The cushions on the king and queen are very hard and I would have preferred linens made of cotton and not polyester. The apartment is very dark due to being on the first floor. The kitchen has everything. But a few items like the cutting boards and the cooking spoon need to be replaced. Unfortunately, the floors were very dirty! Especially in the master bedroom. Full of sand, dirt and dog hair. For a cleaning fee of almost $200 I expect everything to be cleaned. We had a great time and enjoyed our stay in the spacious apartment and would come again.
