Great time

House was great, when we first pulled in we were not sure but it ended up being a nice little neighborhood, only a few mintutes from the beach. We rented a golf cart and were able to drive it back and forth from the beach each day! Over all we would recommend it and would stay there again!

Great stay!

The house was very clean, very cute, and exactly as described. It was in a great location, not far from longboat key, Anna, Maria Island, and Bradenton. Beware, there is a ceramic blue parrot hanging in one of the trees around the pool, this caught me off guards several times and always made me laugh. I would totally stay here again.

Beautiful home

We had a wonderful time. The pool was amazing and clean and the beach was a very short drive away over the bridge. We had such a lovely time here. The property manager was very attentive to anything we may have needed which wasn’t much because they had the house ready. I will be making another reservation here

Weekend with the girls!

My friends and I stayed here for a girls trip/bachelorette weekend and this house was PERFECT! The owner/property manager was very fast in responding to messages and everything was well stocked with the basic toiletries. The living room was very spacious with very comfortable seating. The kitchen was also great and well stocked, even though we only used the refrigerator. It’s such a cute place with great beach decorations throughout!

House was good and spacious, as a suggestion, should be an outside shower before using the pool, the driving distance to the beach is short, and if you're lucky the manatee will be swimming next to you

winter getaway

This property was what we were looking for. A place to relax and get away from winter for a few weeks. The floor plan is a bit different and all the light switches and remote controllers were confusing, although the place was pretty much as advertised. Friendly neighborhood folks who we spoke with while dog walking. Just a short drive to the beach and other amenities.

Will stay again.

This was a convenient place to stay that was not to far from the beach or town. The Catholic Church was close by. It had a very homey feel. The kids enjoyed the pool. The extra refrigerator was a great add. Especially for so many people celebrating my mom's 80th birthday. The only problem we had was that we could not find the remote for the living room television.b

Location Convenience

The location was super convenient. The information provided prior to our stay was a little disappointing. Most items that they said would be provided to get started were not there i.e. laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, etc. It would have been nice if they let us know what type of coffee maker so we could have bought the correct type of coffee.

Soccer Tourney

The whole stay was perfect, the only regret is we weren’t down there for vacation versus being at a soccer tournament. The house was virtually spotless and very relaxing with the various birds and flora fauna. We spent a lot of time watching the birds wasting out of the feeder. The only issue we had was the ceiling fans remotes control fans in other rooms of the house, ie bedroom fan turns on the other bedroom fans/lights. We will definitely stay down there again should we need to vacation or otherwise. I loved cooking on the Green Egg which is just like mine at home. Thank you!!!
