Family Summer Retreat | Pool, Hot Tub & Kayaks
Your Ultimate Summer Waterfront Escape in Bradenton
Summer feels different here.
Mornings begin with sunlight reflecting across the canal while the house slowly wakes up. Coffee is poured, kids race toward the pool, and the excitement of another Florida vacation day begins before breakfast is even finished.
By midday, the backyard becomes your own private resort. Some guests float peacefully in the heated pool while others relax beneath the bamboo pergola soaking in the hot tub. Families gather for pickleball matches, kayak adventures through the canal, and long afternoons filled with sunshine, music, and laughter.
The private dock quickly becomes a favorite spot perfect for fishing, spotting manatees, or simply sitting by the water as boats drift by. And when everyone wants a break from the heat, the game room keeps the fun going indoors.
This home was designed with families and groups in mind. There’s room for everyone to spread out comfortably, yet the open layout naturally brings people together for meals, movie nights, and conversations that last late into the evening.
As the sun begins to set, fire up the grill, gather around the firepit, and watch the sky glow over the water while warm summer breezes move through the palms. These are the moments guests remember long after the trip ends.
Inside, the home is bright, clean, and thoughtfully stocked with everything needed for a relaxing stay comfortable bedrooms, updated bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, fast Wi-Fi, and welcoming spaces that feel even better in person than they do in photos.
Located just minutes from Anna Maria Island beaches, downtown Bradenton, restaurants, and shopping, the home gives you easy access to Florida’s Gulf Coast while still feeling private and peaceful.
Many guests arrive planning to explore the area then realize the best part of the vacation is simply staying here.
Whether you’re planning a summer family vacation, group getaway, or waterfront escape with friends, this Bradenton retreat is designed for unforgettable days, relaxing nights, and memories made together.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bidets. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a fireplace.

Awesome house!
The house was beautiful and very comfortable. It is very well equipped and maintained. Everything was clean and in great condition. The beach is about 30 minutes away but it is perfectly doable and the house is worth it. We will definitely be back.

Perfect retreat
We had a wonderful stay here with my extended family who were visiting from abroad. With 5 teenagers in the house there was so much to keep them entertained and that never involved having the television on!
The pickleball court was great! Pool lots of fun and the games room downstairs with pool table, table football and more provided perfect entertainment.
It was lovely to bbq in the evening and watch the beautiful sunsets.
The house had everything you could think of needing and was very comfortable.
I would totally recommend staying here and would love for come back again!

House was as nice as advertised
The pool, the dock, the pickleball, playground, and house were all great. We caught catfish and pinfish from the dock and saw manatees 2 different times. We used the crab trap and caught a blue crab that became a nice snack.
The interior of the house was very nice. No odd smells or animal smells. They really thought of everything inside. We will definitely try to come back!
The home in Bradenton was an excellent setting for a multigenerational family stay. The kitchen was well designed for cooking full family meals, with ample space and everything we needed. Indoors, the living room stood out with the largest television screen we have ever seen, and there was plenty of room for everyone to gather comfortably. We also appreciated that there were no TVs in the bedrooms, which helped keep the focus on family time and rest.The outdoor amenities made the stay memorable. The pool was warm, the hot tub was relaxing, and the babbling brook water feature did a great job of drowning out nearby sounds. We enjoyed grilling and gathering around the firepit, and the dock was a pleasant place to sit, made even better by a manatee that visited daily. The clear-bottom kayak was a highlight for my daughter and added a fun, unique way to enjoy the water.The property itself felt private and thoughtfully laid out. It sits in a relatively quiet neighborhood, and the extensive yard runs mostly along the side of the house, creating extra distance from the closest neighbor. The sand pit was clean, and the treehouse was perfect for our three-year-old grandson, giving him a space of his own to explore and play. Overall, there was ample space to gather both indoors and out, making the home ideal for a relaxed and memorable family vacation.
