Relaxing beach vacation

The house is fantastic with lots of amenities and a very short walk to the beach. My husband and I bounced between the beach and the pool area every day. Thank you for an amazing stay!

Love this location

Walk to the beach for sunsets, midway between Pine St AMI and Bradenton Beach. Easy walk or bike ride to entertainment and eating options, nice options in back yard (bbq, fire pit, pool, hammock). Have to say on shortcomings is arrived with barely any toilet paper or papertowels or garbage bags...I hate buying that stuff on vacation...otherwise great.
