Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
We had an amazing stay at this house in Bradenton. The location was perfect—just a short distance from the beach, with plenty of restaurants, shops, and entertainment nearby.The house appears to have been recently renovated, and it’s clear that a lot of thought and attention to detail went into every aspect of the property. From the tasteful décor and welcoming aroma upon arrival to the many entertainment options available both in the game room and outdoor areas, everything exceeded our expectations.It was truly a pleasure staying here. The home was comfortable, inviting, and well-equipped for a relaxing getaway. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and are already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommended!

About the host

Host profile image
Hi, we're Larry and Carolina, the family behind Casa Solena and Sol Escapes. After years of vacationing along Florida's Gulf Coast, we created Casa Solena to be the kind of place we love staying in ourselves; comfortable, thoughtfully equipped, family-friendly, and designed for making memories together.

We've worked hard to create a home that feels welcoming from the moment you arrive, with detailed guest guides, responsive communication, and amenities designed for real comfort and fun. Whether you're visiting for beach days, boating, fishing, or simply relaxing with family and friends, we hope Casa Solena becomes a place where lasting memories are made.

Why they chose this property

We chose West Bradenton because it offers the perfect balance of convenience and relaxation. Guests can easily reach Anna Maria Island's beautiful beaches, local restaurants, shopping, and outdoor activities while enjoying the peace and quiet of a residential neighborhood.

We especially love being close to Warner's Bayou Boat Ramp, Palma Sola Causeway, and all the boating, fishing, and water activities that make Florida's Gulf Coast such a special destination.

What makes this property unique

Casa Solena was designed to bring families and groups together. Unlike many vacation rentals, the home offers multiple gathering spaces, including a dedicated game room with pool table, arcade games, karaoke, and lounge seating.

Outside, guests can enjoy a private fenced backyard featuring a temperature-managed plunge-style pool, propane grill, fire pit, backyard games, and plenty of space to relax beneath a beautiful mature oak tree.

We also focus heavily on guest comfort, with large TVs throughout the home, blackout curtains, charging stations, white noise machines, detailed guest guides, and responsive hosting. Every detail has been intentionally chosen to create a comfortable, memorable Gulf Coast getaway.
