Friends Getaway

We had a beautiful time exploring the area. This location was a short golf cart ride to all things fun. We were 7 minutes from the Bean Point Beach and about 5 from the Manatee Beach We could walk to the beach easily or explore the stretch of shoreline by hopping on the cart. We truly felt we experienced it all. This place might be compact-but it really was cute and did the trick! You can’t beat having your own pool AND being a block and a half from the beach! We would highly recommend this location

Cutest lil Bungalow…felt like a resort…perfect for our girls getaway…

Highly recommend this place…awesome lil private pool with 3 loungers and lots of chairs for seating, loved the lil outdoor shower for when we came in sandy… maintenance came to check on the pool often while we were there…very short walk to the beach across the road…everything was very clean, beds comfortable, ceiling fans in bedrooms to keep you cool…entire place decorated so cute, may need to buy extra toilet paper and paper towels, also bring extra laundry tabs if you will be doing laundry for several people on the trip…great communication beforehand and while there, answered questions super quick…have an after hours number they text to me that I ended up having to use for the code when we got there because I had an e-mail issue (not their fault) that was a life saver…close to a trolley stop which made it so convenient for transportation to anywhere we needed to go…a car is not necessary..everything was great for our week! Book it now, you will love it!

Cute little home

Love the closeness to the beach and the deco or the cottage. I would stay there again. I wish the pool was a little cooler but due to size I understand. The WiFi wasn’t working when I was there was the staff was on point when I made them aware.
