The house was clean, comfortable, and decorated very nicely. The kitchen was roomy and well equipt. The whole back pool area was great. And a bunch of restaurants, bars, and shops are all within a nice walk. You will not be disappointed.
Gregg and Lori (host) were very accommodating. Full tour of their home on arrival. The home is fully furnished with all essentials (just like being in your own home). The pool/patio area was refreshing with tables chairs, sun umbrellas, lounge chairs and grill. A variety of bikes for all sizes was fabulous for bike rides down to the boardwalk. Also boogie boards, umbrellas, beach chairs, coolers for the beach were supplied. A great location too. Hospitality was abundant! Thank you for sharing your home.
Gregg and Lori are fantastic hosts. They met us on arrival, showed us around, gave directions to food options, and even came over to change out a smoke detector battery. The location is really close to everything we wanted, and the house itself is amazing!!
Wow, in 13 years we have never seen a 3 star review! And only one 4 star. We are so disappointed this guest did not have a wonderful stay as that is always our upmost goal for our guests. We did our very best to address any issues during the guest's stay, within our control, immediately and to their satisfaction. Almost 200 five star reviews will verify this.
The house was exactly what we were looking for! Wanting to rest after an active Disney trip this was the perfect spot! Close to the beach, perfect for firework watching and spending quality time with the family!
We enjoyed our time very much in this lovely home. Plenty of space for everyone and the outdoor sitting area was a plus. We would definitely stay here again
Gregg and Lori were so welcoming and amazing. They called to check in on us and to see if we needed anything. They made themselves available if we needed anything.
Everything was exactly as advertised. Gregg and Lori were very hospitable and welcoming hosts. They literally provided our family with a home away from home. I couldn’t recommend this home and these hosts more!
This was the perfect spot for all the wedding activities and gave us a place to regroup in between everything. The host were very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed.

Thank you so much for the wonderful comments on the home! We are always so excited to hear how much our guests have enjoyed their stay. We did wanted to correct one thing for future guests reading this review, it is a quick walk to the Manatee River and Riverwalk along the river. It is a short drive to the Anna Maria Island beaches. Thank you again and we look forward to having you as our guests again!
Greg and Lori were very accommodating and kind. We enjoyed our stay and loved the place. The pool is a little oasis with beautiful landscaping, which we enjoyed with our teenage kids.
Owners gracious and every detail of home perfect. Huge southern front porch, beautiful kitchen with everything you need. Quality abound in furnishings truly felt like you were at a well loved home. Backyard with tropical pool amazing..we will be back!
We were in the area for my son to attend a baseball tournament and we had a wonderful experience. Close to everything we needed. The owners are very welcoming and helpful. There is love in every square inch of the “Lady”.
Great place for our family to stay for our son’s wedding week. Awesome location, convenient to all the places we needed to be. Even better was the area offers so much to do in between events. The house is beautifully restored and decorated. Very comfortable with everything you could need.
We had an incredible time! The house had absolutely everything needed for a weekend of entertaining family for our son’s wedding weekend at Pier 22. The hosts were extremely responsive and went the extra mile!
Beautiful home in a historical neighborhood. Quick drive from Tampa International and close to many beaches including Anna Marie Island. Pool was a definite plus-enjoyed our week there and highly recommend.

Thank you for the nice words. But they do not match the star rating of a 1 star???
A wonderful and peaceful 1920 house, with pool, in the historic centre of Bradenton. Walking distance from Old Main Street with its bars and restaurants, this was the perfect home away from home.Close to majestic Anna Maria island and downtown St Pete, the house offered space and tranquility as well as everything a family could need on a vacation. We can't recommend this property highly enough. We will definitely be back!
The house is very inviting. We had a great stay. Everything we wanted to do was closed by.

About the host
Hosted by Gregg or Lori Bittner
We grew up in Minnesota and moved to Sunny Florida in 1990. We love boating and spend a lot of time cruising on "A New Hattitude", our 53' Hatteras when our homes are booked. After living on our boat in the FL Keys for 8 years we are very happy to be back in the area full time and are able to recommend/ suggest things to make your stay more fulfilling. Thankfully most of our 4 children and 5 grandchildren are close by so we have good back up for our guests should we be traveling. Along with this vacation home, we also have a vacation home on Vrbo, "The Palms" across the river in Palmetto. This is a 5bd./4 1/2ba. 3100 sq. ft. home right on the Manatee River with dockage for 2 boats. This home features a living room home theater, family room with French door opening to the river, a fountain, tiki hut and pool. There is also an outdoor kitchen. The magnificent kitchen overlooking the river is well appointed and equipped for large groups. On top of all this is a 2nd floor pool/game room with bar and balcony overlooking the river. So check this out if you need a larger home or would just like to be on the water.
Why they chose this property
Of course it has the charm and Victorian beauty we have always wanted to own. We really want to give vacationers a great experience with this historical and luxurious property. A taste of Olde Florida you could say with the wrap around front porch, historic paver pool deck and tropical antiques and decor. Plus, you cannot beat this peaceful and quiet area that is still close to The Riverwalk and Old Main St. just 2 blocks away. If this property is booked try this other property of ours on Vrbo "The Palms" across the river in Palmetto.
What makes this property unique
The location alone is the best with this property. Everything is really close for the guests to enjoy, restaurants, bars, live music, theater, galleries, shopping, water sports, beach, etc. As it is one of our homes, it has everything your home would have so it is more like going to visit Mom or Grandma than staying in a vacation rental.
