We had a great week here at Runaway Bay. The location is wonderful - across from Bradenton Beach. Host provided lots of beach gear, which we used and enjoyed. We had all that we needed to cook meals in the kitchen and the beds were comfortable, which we appreciated. the view of the bay was beautiful. The only thing I would improve is to have more necessary staples like laundry detergent, a few cleaning supplies, and cooking oil/spices. We had a sick child our first night who threw up and had no way to wash clothes or even do a very thorough clean up because there was no laundry supplies or cleaning supplies besides paper towels and dish soap. So plan ahead to have that on hand.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Excellent location with an easy walk to the beach, pool, tennis/pickleball court, and workout room. The unit was nice, clean, and had all the amenities desired. The wifi and beach equipment were top shelf. The only downside was the weight machine in the workout room needs to be repaired.

Great location across the street from the beach. Well stocked beach supplies. Kitchen supplies (cups, plates, bowls, utensils, etc) were well stocked. Decent pool. Comfortable furniture. Supplies (paper products, etc) provided were lacking compared to other rentals I have had. Unit had a musty smell to it.

Best stay on the island!

We have stayed many times on the island but this was by far our favorite! The location was perfect for us and the condo was above expectations! We had a couple of questions before we arrived and the owners were quick to respond and super helpful. When we arrived, we found a condo full of everything we needed. There was plenty of beach chairs, fishing buckets, beach toys, balls & a wagon to pull it all. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook all week. Also worth noting everything was good quality, not flimsy as found in other rentals. The coffee machine is a keurig for planning purposes. The sitting area and bedrooms were spacious. The outdoor area was peaceful. We would have liked to use it more but it was so hot! The beach was about a 5 minute walk with public access right across the street from the complex. We used the pool & pickle ball court too. The fishing dock was neat to watch the birds & other wildlife at all hours of the day. I would highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to visit the island! We hope to return back next year!

Cute and comfortable condo

The location was superb and it was nicely updated. A little disappointed with the lanai - very small and a bit smelly due to the mangroves. Other than that, it hit all of the desires for a rental.

Rating Details: The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed in runaway the 3 weeks before, and had to find another condo in the same complex, luckily we found 250. We felt at home straight away it had the feel of living in the jungle with the view on the patio backing onto the river, with palm trees beautiful plants and trees for privacy. We enjoyed several of the events they has planned within the complex.The pancake breakfast was yummy. We also loved how close it was to town, the beach the bus stop. The pool area was great 👍. Last but not least you can’t forget to mention the gorgeous sunsets 🌅.
