Beautiful property in a good location, easy reach to everything you could want. The house was extremely clean throughout. Beds were comfy and great having an en suite in all bedrooms. Kitchen well equipped. Although the pool was small is was ideal for us and the pool temperature felt perfect. There is a hot tub but did not try it as the weather was too hot when we were there however I’m sure it would be good to have when temperatures are cooler. Overall I would recommend staying here and would certainly do so myself the next time I stay in Bradenton.

The Blue Manatee is a beautiful home, in a great location. Located close to shopping and is right on the road to the island. Beautifully decorated and comfortable living spaces. The Kitchen is well laid out and spacious, with anything you will need during your stay. The beds are amazing, that is a huge plus! The gameroom is well stocked with games. The pool and outdoor areas are great, while we did not use the outdoor pool table, fire pit or grill they were there ready to be used. The pool was our main attraction and we used it everyday. (the pool was perfect) there is a large assortment of pool toys to keep the young ones busy. We enjoyed the pool so much we never took the time to use the hot tub. This vacation home is very clean and well maintained, located in a very safe upscale neighborhood and plenty of safe areas to walk. We will be back and hopefully for two weeks next trip. The host did maintain communications while we were there, and checked to see if we had any questions or needs to make our stay one to remember.

This is the perfect house to stay with friends, family, and children. House and outdoor living space is large enough that you wouldn’t feel on top of each other if traveling with several people. Very clean, excellent communication by hosts. Felt very much at home! Thank you for sharing your property for others to enjoy.

Everything about this house was perfect. I went with my husband’s family and each couple got their own room and own bathroom which was amazing. My husband and I loved sitting down in the game room to play checkers. We played for hours. The pool and hot tub were a huge plus. We laid in the pool for hours. We cannot wait to go back and will definitely be booking this house or anything through Blue Manatee. Top tier hosts!!!
