Comfortable Stay
This was a spacious and comfortable home, in a convenient location. We usually stay on the islands, but due to hurricanes, there weren’t many rentals. We decided to give Palma Sola a try. We were not disappointed. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. The pool area was very attractive. We will seriously consider this option for next time we stay In a he area.

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.

Outstanding 18th Birthday Weekend
Very nice place... well-appointed and a short drive to he beaches. Has everything you need plus some wonderful touches like the massage chair, ping-pong and foosball tables, hammock on the pool deck, the pool itself and cozy neighborhood. We had plenty of space for our group and my daughter enjoyed her 18th birthday weekend getaway! Would definitely come back again.

Best Host I Have Ever Had
We had an amazing time in Bradenton! Carol, our host was so communicative every step of the way. She was very accommodating to our various requests including when we needed to add a day at the last minute. The house it self was just as described and filled with tons of amenities. We really appreciated they provided beach gear and pool toys. Lots of towels! We loved that they actually provided some little things like hand/dish soap and a good amount of toilet paper(we have stayed at plenty of rentals that don’t do this). We stayed with a another family for 4 adults and 4 kids total and it was great set up for that with the two primary bedrooms. We will definitely rent this one again!

Perfect house for multiple families!
Us and two other families just stayed at Carol’s house and it was great! Plenty of room for everyone and the kids loved sharing the bunk bed room. The best part was definitely the pool area. The kids swam in the heated pool everyday while we enjoyed sitting in the covered area. Drive to the closest beaches was about 15 mins or so.
