Thank you for the kind review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the location and that the home had everything you needed for a comfortable stay. We appreciate you choosing Gulf Life Getaway and hope to welcome you back to Bradenton Beach and Anna Maria Island again soon.
We had a wonderful family vacation at Fred’s property. The location is amazing with the beach right across the street and shops and restaurants within a few minutes walk. There were lots of games and toys for our little ones (1 and 4) to play with inside, and plenty of beach toys available for use. Fred provided a pack n play and ordered a high chair for our son to use. The kids also had a great time in the pool. Hope to be back again!
Great place all around! Was clean and in good shape. The garage was really nice to have and was stocked extremely well with wagons, chairs, coolers, umbrellas, sand toys, etc. The kitchen was also stocked well and both the beach and bathroom towels were plentiful and high quality. Some of the easiest access to the beach you can find on the island! And the pier on the bay side was nice and was decent fishing. The community pool was a little small but wasn’t busy. We would definitely book again! The only thing that’s important to note is it wouldn’t be a great place for older people or people with mobility issues because there are a lot of stairs and they are steep and narrow.
The property location to the beach was excellent. There are great views of the beach and the bay. The place was very clean. There were plenty of items available for a great day at the beach which included chairs, umbrellas, beach towels and floats. The kitchen is well stocked with all items needed for cooking a great family meal. The pool was a nice break from the beach and the neighbors were all kind and friendly. This place is highly recommended.
Beach access was incredible. Deck on the bay was great for watching the sunrise and just as beautiful a view at night. Home was spacious, clean and had everything we needed for our stay.
The place was right across the street from the beach which was awesome. The place had all the needed beach stuff. However all the dishes and linens were dirty, the pots and pans looked like they weren’t cleaned. The location was great but attention to deals were lost.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, we will address it, new updates and linens and towels coming
Loved our stay, host and local management very helpful/responsive. Wonderful location, great accommodations, beach just across the street. My sisters and Mom thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would come back again in a heartbeat!
The condo was amazing. Perfect location for walking to the beach, restaurants and shopping. The garage was stocked with all-things-beach. We rented a golf cart and there was plenty of parking available. Excellent vacation and we can’t wait to come back.
Great spot!! Easy to get to the beach! Property was just right for our group of 6.

About the host
Hosted by Fred Greco
We’re a family from Doylestown, Pennsylvania, just outside of Philadelphia. We love the beach, golf, and traveling to our kids’ many sports activities. I own a branded merchandise and apparel company, and my wife teaches 3rd grade in the Philadelphia school district. We’re excited to share our happy place with you and hope your stay brings relaxation, fun, and lasting memories for your family.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with Anna Maria Island the very first time we visited six years ago. After exploring every part of the island, Bradenton Beach quickly became the place that felt like “home.” We love that it has the perfect balance of laid-back island charm and walkable convenience. You can start the morning with a quiet beach walk, grab coffee nearby, spend the afternoon in the sun, and end the day with a sunset that truly never gets old.
We stayed in this same Bermuda Bay Club community—actually in this same unit—before becoming owners, and we instantly knew how special the location was. We love that the Gulf is only steps away, and that everything you need is close by. You can park the car and forget about it for your entire stay. Restaurants, live music, local shops, ice cream, and beach bars are all within walking distance, and the free island trolley makes it easy to explore without ever driving.
Bradenton Beach has a friendly, welcoming energy that makes it easy to relax and slow down. The neighborhood is peaceful and family-friendly, yet still full of character. We love the natural beauty here—sugar-sand beaches, turquoise water, dolphins in the distance, and sunsets that stop you in your tracks. Bermuda Bay Club itself is a quiet, private community, so you get all the benefits of being close to everything while still having a calm place to unwind.
For us, this neighborhood represents everything we love about island life: simplicity, sunshine, connection, and time together. We hope you fall in love with Bradenton Beach the same way we did and create memories here that stay with you long after you leave.
What makes this property unique
What makes this property unique is the combination of comfort, amenities, and the ability to truly relax without effort. Our home offers the rare convenience of being just steps from the Gulf, paired with the benefits of a private, well-kept community that gives you space to unwind.
Guests love the community’s heated pool and hot tub, perfect for relaxing after a day in the sun or enjoying a peaceful evening swim. Another favorite feature is the bayfront community deck, a quiet spot for morning coffee, wildlife watching, or casting a line for some casual fishing without ever leaving the neighborhood.
Inside, the home is designed for easy vacation living—bright, comfortable, and spacious enough for families to spread out. Whether you’re enjoying a game night, cooking together, or taking in the coastal breeze from the balcony, the space is all about slowing down and reconnecting.
This property gives you the best of both worlds: resort-like amenities and the privacy of a home, all in a setting that makes vacation feel natural, simple, and memorable.
