Absolutely Fantastic!!
I rented this property for three months from Dec - Feb and I was not disappointed! Lisa was such a lovely host and the house was even better than in the photos! It was immaculately kept, beautifully furnished inside and out with amazing views of nature on the back deck including manatees and dolphin sightings in the river.
The location is a short drive to shopping, restaurants & the beach. This was my perfect getaway house!!!!!

Superb Vacation
We are from the UK and had the perfect vacation in this beautiful house on the water. It was quiet and peaceful in a beautiful setting which is what we wanted and yet close to the beach, shops, restaurants and night life which we frequented. The house was perfectly clean and well equipped with everything we could have possibly needed. We can't wait to return next year for another wonderful experience. Vicki and James

SENSATIONAL
We stayed at this incredible house over Christmas 2015. My girlfriend and I had the most amazing experience.
We live in New York and to get away from the cold winter and to stay at such an amazing property was a pure dream. The weather was perfect as was the home.
The host was friendly, attentive and met us at exactly the time we agreed upon. "Beautiful Bayou" was BEAUTIFUL.
Thank you for such an amazing vacation.
We would have no problems in highly recommending this vacation home.

Very Stressful Stay and Look out for the Camera she may have watching you
After staying at another home in Bradenton for the month of January, we looked for another home to stay in for 2 wks. The owner here said her place was available. We met her and looked at the location, it met our needs. She assured us she would be there on our arrival to give us the key and go over some things. The day we were to arrive she emailed to say the key was under the mat and she had gone away for the weekend. There were no instructions on how to use the tv or remote , as all are different, no wifi password was left for us, she knew it was critical that we had internet. There were ants all over the counter and a ceiling fan left on in the bedroom that we could not find any switch for to turn off. Turns out it was behind the headboard of the bed! When we tried to call her cell phone for 2 days, there was never an answer and no messages were answered. Apparently she had left the phone in her car at the airport.
The first place we stayed was very organized with instructions for everything and a managers phone number that could be contacted any time if there was any problem at all.
This owner seemed very unorganized and unprofessional in her renting. She had had her bedroom furniture painted 2 days prior to our arrival and when she returned from her weekend away, phoned and wanted to come in an inspect it prior to paying the labourer. We resentfully allowed her to, but felt she was intruding on what was to be a peaceful stay. When she decided she didnt like one of the pieces she asked if we would vacate the home for several hours so the painter could return and redo it. We paid good money to rent this house and should have been left alone, not asked to leave because she wasn't happy with work done prior to us arriving. We declined her request. A few days later she texted us again and informed us that she would be coming by to pick up some cloths out of her garage. We felt very uncomfortable in this house, never knowing when the owner would be returning for one thing or another. She tried to qualify all these intrusions on the fact that she let us rent her house at such short notice. Then dont rent it out!
We were told we could have use of the canoe and the kayak on the property but there was no kayak paddle only a canoe paddle and the canoe was locked up with a rusted lock that
couldnt be unlocked. We will never stay here again and would advise anyone not to either unless you don't mind continually being bothered by a unorganized owner

SOOOOOO NIce! Private, classy and the complete experience...!
I believe that most people only do a review when things are not so good with their rental, and I have to say that is how it has been with me over the years as well. But, this is the exception! I was very happy with my stay at, “Beautiful Bayou,” and that name fits it very well.
My first choice was to find a place on Anna Maria Island, but I found everything I wanted already booked and ridiculously priced! So, then I looked on Siesta Key, Long Boat Key and Lido Key, but the feel wasn’t right. After more searching, I finally found that special gem I was looking for, and it was a private and complete home in an upscale waterfront neighborhood on a protected bayou just off the Manatee River; which provides great boat access to Anna Maria Island and all of Tampa Bay. And, it was just across from the Bradenton Yacht Club where some our friends belong.
The home is classy in every way with a completely stocked kitchen, a wonderful formal dinette set, wrap around sliding glass windows viewing a water front of about approximately 500 feet, TV in every bedroom, an amazing deck and pool area, as well as a generous dock and boat house that has both electric and water available. (This is truly great if you have a boat of up to about 28-30 feet.)
The hammock between the two old oak trees on the spacious side lawn was my favorite spot for reading and chilling out, and also for watching the dolphins, manatees and other exotic sea life do their coming and going along the incredibly beautiful and natural bayou. You might want to bring your kayak or paddle board if you have one, since this bayou is a perfect place for it.
We did the easy 15 minute drive to the many beaches on Anna Maria Island during the day, and also did our best to try each and every one of world class restaurants there at night! (We missed a few but will get to them next year.)
A month is just not long enough at “Beautiful Bayou”! We promise to do at least 2 months upon our return. Thank you “Beautiful Bayou” for the memories and for sharing your rare beauty and delicate nature with us.

Fabulous Hidden Treasure
I found treasure in Bradenton, Florida at "Beautiful Bayou." I admit it, I've been a California Snob for a long time and never thought I'd be impressed with any place in Florida. My tune has changed and I'm loving North West Bradenton, Florida. The home we rented called, "Beautiful Bayou," has be updated throughout and was immaculate inside and out when we arrived. The owner was very helpful telling us about the area in terms of restaurants, sites to see, places to go, and she clearly took pride in taking care of her property and in assuring we were properly taken care of.
We love the outdoors and so we found a place to rent paddle boards and used them in nearby Robinson Preserve on three different days. We also biked for miles each day and found treasures wherever we went. We even found a place to rent horses nearby and rode them on the causeway beach and on back road trails.
In retrospect, I only wish we had rented a boat to explore the islands nearby as well, and also to fish and to party cruise down the gorgeous coast line and the inner bays.
Our weather was fabulous the entire time and our short distance to the beaches allowed us to avoid long lines of traffic. (Due mostly to spring breakers.)
We highly recommend "Beautiful Bayou" for virtually anyone, and we definitely plan to come back. Overall, I'd say it was the best vacation we've ever had and at a great value!

Debbie - taking some time away from the bitter cold in the Northeast
What a wonderful and serene view from this secluded waterfront home. Literally, open water view from every room throughout the house without looking at any neighbors. Woke up in the mornings and did not have to lift my head off the pillow to enjoy the birds singing and the tree leaves rustling in the gentle river breeze. Coffee out on the deck and watching dolphins frolicking in the water. A perfect place to relax and recharge.

I was born, raised and educated in Florida but I've traveled the world extensively. Coming home is always a treat.
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
It's easily one of the most charming places I've ever been and I want to share this with others by renting it to likeminded people. I have traveled the world extensively but I find Beautiful Bayou in the wonderful Bradenton-Sarasota hub to be one of the best places I've ever been to. I continue to cherish it as I would an old friend. My seasonal renters thus far seem to agree.
この宿泊施設の特徴
The location is incredible and for real estate that is what it is usually all about. The property is on a bayou that protects manatees for safety yet only a mile from all the unique barrier islands via the Manatee River and the beautiful Gulf of Mexico. Fantastic fishing abounds here as does the beautiful white Gulf sands.
