Booking, communication and check in was very easy! Right across the street from the beach access and short walk to restaurants! Bed and hide away were both comfortable . Despite being on the road, it was very quiet! I highly recommend this cute little spot and will definitely stay here again!

This VRBO was 10/10! This location is right across the street from the beach, and walking distance to the best restaurants (wicked cantina, gulf shore cafe, daquiri deck) & the AMOB pier! Maria was a very good communicator. Also met (what I’m assuming) her husband. He was cleaning up around the property & was a very nice man. The VRBO itself was so cute and the perfect size for 2. I liked the curtains in the living room so you could close off the windows, even to the front door. There was plenty of storage in the bathrooms & kitchen. Came with multiple beach chairs & umbrella. Also having a stand up fan in the bedroom was amazing!!! Can’t sleep without one. Also had a parking spot for each VRBO. I would 100% recommend this property & I will definitely book again!

I this adorable cottage was beyond perfect for us. We were able to walk to the beach walk to restaurants shopping. We were able to see sunsets in the morning and sunrises in the evening just only a few steps in either direction. We are definitely looking forward to our vacation in paradise next year. Thank you so much, Maria.

My husband is really mad about this and wants his money back..

Great Location and special touches

Great Location and special touches

The location was great, able to walk to lots of things. The room was very nice and you could tell special attention was paid to small details. The water pressure in the shower, however, was nonexistent and was a bummer. Water pressure in the bath and kitchen sink was fine and water temp was good. But, this needs to be addressed to make the stay top notch. The hosts were great to deal with too as I made a change in the nights that I stayed; moving it from one night to another and they were very accommodating. All in all, a good place to stay for the night.

We love the location and the front yard! Thank you for providing cover from sun in front yard. Inside, unit can use some work, including updates to bathroom. Poor shower pressure. Bed is comfortable but fitted sheet does not stay on. Floor could be cleaner, but this is a challenge at the beach. We know we are paying for the location, quaintness and charm. Jose stopped by a couple of times to see if we needed anything. Overall, we were satisfied. Thank you!

Sweet little oasis in the center of the action

Sweet little oasis in the center of the action

This cottage is a nice little place just a block from the action on Bridge Street and across the street from the beach. There's even a little water view from the front door. Enjoy people watching on the shaded front patio or take a break in the super quiet room in between activities. The owners are also friendly and accessible.

My husband, son & I stayed here for 5 nights. The location is great! The beach is beautiful. The beds were comfortable. We did keep tracking sand in the cottage, outside hose for rinsing our feet would have been nice. Very easy check in!

The location was great, just steps from the beach. The check in process was very easy. We found the room clean and nice for two people. It was nice to have beach chairs and an umbrella available. Our only complaint would be the need for a washer and dryer, after a few days on the beach it would have been nice to be able to wash towels and such. Overall, it was a great stay.

Perfect location. Walking distance to shopping and many restaurants. Beach is directly across the street. Comfortable bed and sofa bed. My only issue was the 1 unit ac did not cool the bedroom sufficiently. After our day on the beach the condo was just down right hot. Even with the ac running the whole time, it wasn’t until after 10pm before the bedroom area was comfortable. Loved the thoughtful basket of goodies and having beach towels and chairs was terrific.

An OK place close to the beach

An OK place close to the beach

This is a pretty small place. When you walk out the front door, you are ten feet from a busy main road and across the street from a beautiful beach. The bed was not at all comfortable. It was clean. Neither the front door or the bathroom door fit properly or sealed all the way around. The bathroom has no ventilation so the hinges and fixtures have a lot of rust. The bottom of the bathroom door is rotted out. The stay was OK, but not worth the price we paid.

Beach bungalow

Beach bungalow

Great for two people... we had 2 adults and two teens, pretty tight, but fine for two nights:) Bradenton Beach is literally across the street, and better than Anna Maria in our opinion! Lots of restaurants within walking distance:) great location. A hose outside would be great, as we constantly tracked sand and dust in and had to sweep a lot ;( Overall, great short rental.
