Waterfront Bradenton Home: Heated Pool & Fire Pit

We had an absolutely wonderful time during our girls' weekend in this home. The location was ideal -- convenient to both Anna Maria Island and Bradenton-- and there was minimal traffic in the off-season. The house itself met our needs in every way. There were three of us and we each had our own comfortable bedroom, the kitchen was clean and well equipped and all the appliances worked, and we loved sitting in the comfortable recliners in the living room and relaxing while we looked outside. It was a bit cool outside in the evenings, but we managed to go into the pool a couple of times for quick dips and sit outdoors while we had breakfast. We felt like there were so many great amenities we didn't have time to use on our short stay! We are considering going back next year for a longer stay so we can enjoy more of this house and outdoor area. Thank you!

Great place!!

This home is truly beautiful and very comfortable. The main bedroom and bathroom are huge! Host thought of everything guests would need. Had a great experience, would recommend wholeheartedly!

Our stayed was very pleasant with a few hiccups. We requested to see if we could have an early check-in but property manager notified us of an issue with plumbing, so it was denied. We arrived at our it time 4pm. And plumber was working inside property, so we had to wait after our check in time. House overall is very spacious, but the cleaning needs to be done better. One of the rooms bed sheets we not changed so we ended up changing it ourselves, also master bathroom shower ceiling has black mold. The outside back area is very pretty, we enjoyed fishing and a good time in the pool area. We were going to use the grill but it wasn’t clean, so we skipped it. Today at check out was at 10am and I requested an 11:30am checkout but it was also denied, only until I mentioned our check-in inconvenience, they replied 11am because they had another check in at 3pm. We left at 10:40am.

Everything you would need for your beach holiday.Clean, comfortable and perfect location 10/10 would stay agian

9/12 at 11:30 am I received a phone call from my dad stating that he was in the bed sleeping and people just walked in the house. He was startled, he handed the phone to me and it was a realtor for the buyer of the home doing a tour. I told her no we have rented this place for three days and she can’t do that. I hung up. My dad let me know that she proceeded to tour the home anyway with all of our personal belongings out in each room. He told her no, she needed to leave and can tour another time when we are not here. We don’t know you and you have brought strangers in here and walked in with a code while I was sleeping. The is very unnerving being in a strange home, unfamiliar area and strangers just walking in. This is unacceptable and I would like to be reimbursed for my fees. I followed all of the rules as a guest and did not receive the same in return. The home itself is very nice and comfortable and the pool area is beautiful. The home is well stocked with every you need for a stay. There was nothing we forgot that the home didn’t already have. The air conditioning in the main home needs to be checked out, it does not stay at temp when put on hold and consistently resets back to 80 degrees. It was very hot in the house especially at night when you are sleeping and Have to remember to wake up to pull the air back down. The master bedroom stayed cold because it had its own split unit that did not cut on and off.

I rented this house for a long weekend with my family and I can’t say enough good things. It is located in a great and convenient location. The owners were so helpful with any questions we had and made sure we had everything we needed, including frozen treats in the fridge. The pool was perfect after a day at the beach. We all decided we are going to come back again for our next vacation!

We enjoyed our stay at this house. Responsiveness and communication with property manager was terrific, with easy/accurate arrival and departure process. House was very clean inside. Pool is more like a spool (spa/pool) and perfect for a couple’s getaway. Location was convenient to beaches, AMI and restaurants. Just a couple minor things that need to be addressed at this property 1) numerous bees at that beach area prevented us from using this feature 2) old cigarette butts around pool deck 3) numerous pool cage screens need replacement, as mosquitoes were prevalent at night. I would recommend and we will be back to this house.

Not only did we feel right at home but this house was one of the more functional vacation homes I’ve been in! Plenty of appropriate kitchen appliances and utensils as well as space to prepare and still socialize! We didn’t pack beach towels or toys but there were plenty of beach towels, toys and chairs available for use at the house which was awesome!The owner, Donna, is so helpful and made sure we had access to everything we needed on our stay! Recommendations were spot on and the home location was perfect to the beach and restaurants!The outside area is set up perfect for entertaining or just relaxing. There were fishing poles which were used daily! Kayaking was easy and we even saw dolphins at the end of the canal!The space is very kid friendly (2 and 4 year old boys). The layout fit our family nicely as we had the kids on one side and the other couple on the opposite side of the home. We didn’t feel like we were on top of each other in the house either. I can’t say enough positive things about Donna and this home. We are already planning several trips back to this area and can only hope this home is available when we do!

We had 3 adult couples for a kid-free getaway and loved the proximity to AMI, the beach, restaurants, etc. The pool and outdoor areas were great for relaxing at the house. The host was very helpful and even shipped a jacket we forgot at the house. Would highly recommend!
