Perfect location!

This condo was the perfect place to house my family of 5 in mid-July. The condo was well equipped with everything we needed + the mini cooler, sand toys, beach towels, beach chairs and wagon were wonderful bonuses. We left 2 boogie boards for future guests to enjoy. This location and complex is perfect for families and the perfect walking distance to the beach. This condo is located very close to the pool as well, with a beautiful view of the pond.

review of our stay 4/6-4/13

We throughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful condo! It has a very well stocked kitchen, comfortable living room furniture, entire condo is very clean, all the linens, towels, beach chairs and wagon provided take to the beach. Beds were also comfortable. The patio was wonderful to seat on all times of the day, with the local birds becoming our pets; Fred(great egret), Wilma ( small egret), Red Boots ( Ibis) and Floyd ( grey Heron). They were very friendly, and became part of our family. The Owner is very responsive to questions, and gets back to you very Quickly. We enjoyed the pool and shuffle board courts and a nice walk to the canal where some were fishing from the dock. We all had a relaxing and lovely stay in this condo and the community of Runaway Bay. We hope to return soon.

Great location & condo!

We really enjoyed our stay, the location was right by the beach so it easy each day to make our way to the ocean! The place was clean, good linens and comfortable beds. They had outdoor chairs, wagon and umbrella to use which was greatly appreciated! The only opportunity to improve was more cookware in the kitchen but that's person preference since we cook-in to save money. High recommend this listing!

Bradenton

The unit was very well supplied. We were very surprised to find out the beach was across the street from us because according to the pictures we had the impression we walked out of the building and the beach was there. Unfortunately, the condo was not clean. The kitchen was pretty good, but Whoever vacuumed did a terrible job and we found other peoples receipts and one of the bedrooms. The worst thing I saw was a very old hairbrush loaded with hair and one of the bathroom drawers. I did not use any drawers in that room after that. Aside from the cleanliness, though, we were satisfied with the condo.

Annual Girls Trip

We are all either currently working in the school system or retired from the public school system. We started taking a summer trip together 12 years ago, only missing 2 years, 1 for Covid and 1 because one of us was battling cancer. We truly enjoy this time to catch up, relax, get some sun, eat and drink adult beverages. This was our first time in the Anna Maria Island area and we had a terrific time finding new places to eat and hang out. Thank you for your beautiful condo.

Awesome Stay at Runaway Bay

Anna was a terrific host and her place exceeded all our expectations. 2 Pickleball courts were used every day and we met some incredibly nice guests during our stay. Only downside was the Red Tide which precluded us from using the beach as often as we would have liked! Highly recommend this property!
