Family gathering
We celebrated Granddad's 80th birthday with the family, 9 altogether. Accomodations couldn't have been better. Patio and pool were wonderful to relax in. Location is close to beachs/gulf but in a quiet neighborhood with little traffic. Yard if fully fenced in so accomodated a dog with no issues. All the comforts and conveniences of home. Would definately book again.

So Pleased! Beautiful house. Great customer service. Perfect location.
This was the first time our family booked a vacation rental. So thankful we got to work with someone like Carol. We loved our stay. Carol was extremely kind and very easy to communicate with, and the booking was trouble-free. The kitchen was better equipped than my own home. The listing was exactly as described and better. The owner provided everything we could possibly require for our stay at the house and our trips to the beach. Also, loved the welcome book with helpful tips and places to eat and visit. We felt very welcomed. Would highly recommend this wonderful stay.

Wonderful place to stay near Anna Maria Island and Bradenton area
My family had a wonderful time staying at Carol’s place during our family vacation! My parents were very comfortable staying in the downstairs master suite. My kids loved the heated pool to come back to relax in the evenings. It is in a very convenient location near DeSoto National Memorial Park, Robinson preserve, and a Publix grocery store. The house is in a quiet family friendly neighborhood and we are already planning our next trip to come again! Carol has thoughtfully planned everything that one might need.

About the host

Host profile image
Thank you for taking the time to get to know a bit about me and my family! We are a family of 4 from the Midwest who love beach and tennis. We found Bradenton after our boys attended tennis camps at IMG. The laid back atmosphere and beautiful beaches brought us back year after year. We are excited to have the opportunity to host families visiting Anna Maria and Bradenton as this has been our #1 vacation spot for years.

Why they chose this property

We are located in a quiet, beautifully maintained neighborhood in Palma Sola (NW Bradenton), 6 miles from Anna Maria Island. Enjoy a nice morning stroll in the morning before the hustle and bustle of beach hopping. Publix is less than 5 minutes drive away along with multiple tasty restaurants on Manatee Ave. Visiting IMG? We are less than 15 minutes drive to the academy. Bradenton is a wonderful and ideal location for a beach family vacation with nature, wildlife, arts & culture all sprinkled in!

What makes this property unique

This property has a large first floor master with en-suite walk in shower to accommodate any guests who want to avoid using stairs.
