Such a precious house! The back bedroom needs it own AC unit. Very hot and the paper blinds needed tape added constantly.

The only complaint is how warm the bedroom gets even in the winter. Also if the security lights pop on at night they do light up the bedroom even with shades that stapled up. The house is clean and comfortable and an amazing location. Well supplied.

My wife and I absolutely loved our stay at Almost Heaven! The home is an adorable little cottage steps away from bay and beach. The home is in a perfect location in Bradenton Beach very close to Historic Bridge Street which has a variety of shops, restaurants and tiki bars. At the end of the small street is the bay with a small bench perfect for sitting and watching the boats and dolphins splash if you're lucky (bring your binoculars, you won't regret it). The other end of the street is easy beach access with lifeguard stand and perfect beautiful sunsets. There are a variety of rental shops on the island to rent both beach chairs, bikes, and golf carts for transportation on the island. Additionally, a free trolley will pick you up at the end of the street which runs between Bradenton Beach, Holmes Beach, and Anna Maria. Inside the home you can expect a fully renovated kitchen, bathroom, and living room. The kitchen includes wonderful new appliances including a dishwasher as well as all of the basic pots, pans, and dishes to prepare meals. In terms of sleeping arrangements, the home is listed as a two bedroom with a primary bedroom including twin trundle bed and a good size closet. The master bedroom is located through the first bedroom on what was once the former enclosed porch of the home. A wonderful queen bed and updated furniture are within the master bedroom. As stated in other reviews, this room does get warm throughout the day as it is the former enclosed porch of the home and does not have the best insulation. My wife and I visited in mid-November so this was not a problem for us as the temperature never got too hot. Also to mitigate this problem, ceiling fans and a separate box fan are both provided. It does seem the owner is aware of this and I can only imagine that they will continue to improve the bedroom as they continue their renovation process. To round out the sleeping arrangements, within the living room there is an additional sofa bed that can pull out into a twin. Overall the house was everything we had hoped for and more. This home will provide a perfect getaway for any couple or small family with children in the wonderful kid friendly town.

House was clean and well situated to beach access. You could tell the master suite was an outdoor area converted to a bedroom. It was considerably warmer than the rest of the house.

Nice location close to beach. Everything you need and very nice inside.

The location of the house is wonderful especially if you are looking to be by the beach. VRBO was easy to book through and had a trouble free listing/booking. As always.🙂 The house is one of vacasa's homes so there is no one owner. This is the first time we booked through vacasa and we think it is so much easier to book when something is privately owned. For the most part our stay was fine and the house was fine. It had what we needed although the air conditioning didn't work in the back bedroom of the house. It was hard to get a hold of anyone for information because I was always sent to a call center. Other than that, we enjoyed our trip!

We had a great time!! We had a problem with ants, and with the thermostat being locked. But communicating with Vacasa was great. The location was perfect. Furnishings were nice / comfortable. There is one box fan but bring another with you. Other than that, GREAT house!

The house was beautiful, but a little too small. On top of this, there is a major air conditioner problem in the master bedroom.

House was clean and updated. Met our needs and great location-just across the street from the beach.

Wonderful 50th birthday weekend. ☀️💗☀️

Close to the ocean and walking distance to shops and restaurants

Unfinished bedroom, people coming ang going asking fo

We are so happy we rented this perfect home for our vacation. It’s location is right in front of the Bradenton Beach, within walking distance of Bridge Street, and we were only minutes away from Anna Maria’s other beaches. Our stay was comfortable as the house was very clean, everything was new, and all the essentials were included (cleaning supplies, dishes, utensils, iron). They even had a hose outside so we could wash up after being at the beach. The only thing I noticed was that the floors were not clean because my son crawls and his knees became stained after a while, so we mopped the floors regularly after that.
