Perfect location and home for our short stay. Easy access to St. Petersburg and Tampa. The immediate area and the restaurants/shops in Bradenton were diverse and delicious.

What a great vacation at a fabulous house. Our Host was wonderful and answered all questions quickly. House was centrally located for the activities we had planned. The boyo thought the pool was the best and was so thankful it was heated. We had more than enough room for everyone. Thank you for everything!

Really enjoyed our 2 day stay. If I can make a few comments...bbq grill caught fire (!) and needs to be cleaned. As a homeowner myself, I would recommend cleaning the debris off the roofs-especially the pool house. I would definitely stay there again.
