A great option for the Bradenton area. Only a few miles from GT Bray, and easy access to the different beaches in the area. The house was clean and good for families, and the pool area between just a few houses was quite an oasis.

We had a great time on our stay! It was an excellent property for our first AMI visit. The shared area with the pool, hot tub, and lawn games was a great way to keep five (5) kids entertained when we had enough beach time for the day. The house had everything we needed and was very comfortable. The only thing lacking (minor) was places to hang our wet stuff and a way to mitigate the mosquitos in the shared outdoor spaces.

The outside of the house is absolutely amazing. The house was clean and everything was perfect. The pool is absolutely beautiful and the hot tub was clean and comfortable. I would recommend this house for your vacation needs and the beach is about 15 minutes away depending on traffic. There is a lot of restaurants to choose from.

Great place for the family

We had a great stay over a long weekend. Host was very accommodating allowing us the check in early and stay a few hours late on our checkout date. Host was also very easy to get in touch with. Heated pool saved the weekend letting the family get some energy out with less than warm temperatures outside. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Really great stay for the whole family

Nothing but positives during our stay. We had good times with the other guests, we also had plenty of room for our privacy. Shared outdoor area was really incredible. I dont think we even turned the tv on. Grill was great, kitchen was excellent. Beds were comfy.Will look for this property on any future stays.

The property feels very much like a resort and we will visit again. The pool is amazing and the backyard area has a ton of games and stuff to do. We had privacy when we needed it with our fenced in yard and our dogs had a place to run around. The unit had everything we needed from towels to cooking pans and utensils to Tupperware. Host responded immediately anytime we reached out and was very accommodating.

The backyard was amazing. Many people aren’t reading the description that shows it’s a shared community space with 2 other houses BUT you get your own backyard as well. Had a blast and everyone was respectful of each other.

Weekend stay

I chose this property based on proximity to my cousin's home where we were attending a celebration of life gathering for my aunt. It was clean, spacious, and had comfortable beds. The home has been remodeled beautifully. Convenient to restaurants and Publix grocery store. Thank you for a nice stay.
