Quietness

My friend and I enjoyed a two week stay here and it was very accomodating with all our needs; even a laundry room. The decor was quite interesting with portraits and colorful. It's NOT your usual run of the mill, boring place. We highly recommend this location and address as it's close to Bradenton Beach and Anna Marie Island. And we especially loved the quietness of this location! Thank you Doug and Candy!

A Great stay. Home has everything and very clean. Candy is amazing and a great host. If bringing a bot, make sure to contact the Marina and make sure to reserve a space and therefore be able to launch. Otherwise restricted to public! We would go back for sure!!

Boat parking can be tricky and I wouldn't recommend launching from this marina with a jet boat. Too grassy and creates issues. Other than that the place was nice and as expected. Thank you!

I would live here if i would.

I can't rate this appartment enough, it was the most beautiful, quirky awesome beach condo! The beds where super comfy, the kitchen was really well stocked and the place was immaculate. Plus access to a grill and smoker ( which made me super happy). The appartment is only a short hop to AMI, or bradenton and easy acces to Cortez. Doug and Candy (the owners) live downstairs and where super friendly with recomendations and places to visit. I can assure you. We will be coming back.
