"Candy was incredibly kind, and everything was very organized with clear instructions from the beginning. The apartment was spotless, beautifully decorated, and very cozy. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. The location is excellent, very close to Anna Maria Island as well as supermarkets and other conveniences. My family and I truly enjoyed our stay. Thank you, Candy, for being such a wonderful host! We hope to return soon.

"My friend and I enjoyed a two week stay here and it was very accomodating with all our needs; even a laundry room. The decor was quite interesting with portraits and colorful. It's NOT your usual run of the mill, boring place. We highly recommend this location and address as it's close to Bradenton Beach and Anna Marie Island. And we especially loved the quietness of this location! Thank you Doug and Candy!

Plus access to a grill and smoker ( which made me super happy). The apartment is only a short hop to AMI, or Bradenton and easy access to Cortez. The owners where super friendly with recommendations and places to visit. I can assure you. We will be coming back.

The house has a deck with furniture and you can grill in the patio in the lower level if needed. The owner was super nice and even let us borrow beach chairs so we didn't have to rent them. Overall our stay was very pleasant and there was 1 day or 2 where we just relaxed at the house and played board games, watched netflix, baked a cake. It truly felt like being at home away from home.

The property is nestled in a pretty little community away from the traffic of Bradenton and close enough to walk or bike to the beach. The property is well maintained, super clean and comfortable, with everything you need even extras like books, board games, and items to use at the beach - a home away from home! The entire place feels spacious and offers plenty of privacy and the owners are respectful of your privacy as well but also very helpful when you need it. The neighborhood felt very safe. Be sure to check out Tyler's Homemade Ice Cream only 5 minutes away and the bakery next door - Delicious and nostalgic!
