Villa by the Sea #3's open floor plan puts everything at your fingertips without ever making you feel crowded. The spacious beach-themed living room offers a cozy sofa where you and your family can relax and catch up on your favorite shows on the cable TV. Prepare a full meal, warm up leftovers, or mix up a cocktail in the fully equipped kitchen. The comfortable bedroom sleeps two, with a queen-size bed and another cable TV. There's also extra bedding for the sleeper sofa in the living area, so the condo sleeps four in all (children welcome!). The full bathroom boasts a walk-in shower and plenty of fresh, fluffy towels.
As comfy and cozy as this home is, you won't be spending much time indoors!

Whether you want to sink your toes in the soft white sands on the beach, or pause to watch the sunset over the Gulf of Mexico, you'll only have to walk a short distance. The free Island Trolley is ready to take you to the north end of the island to visit the village of Anna Maria, where two historic piers offer opportunities for fishing and dining. Shops, restaurants, galleries, a marina, a library, tennis courts, mini-golf, visitor friendly gyms, and even a museum and community theater can also be found on the island. Come and experience for yourself why Anna Maria Island is considered Florida's hidden gem!

Centrally located near beach, restaurants and shops. We would stay again! Very small but perfect for two people. Lots of beach supplies available. Pool was nice, grill available. Quiet neighborhood. Very close walk to beach. Maybe 5 min walk.

We loved the location and the condo! We would definitely book again and do recommend. However- we checked in 2hours after check in because no one was communicating with us. Then we had an issue with the shower and again no communication back to us, some palms fell in the pool after a storm and no communication again. Just be aware that the property manager will not communicate with you.

Lovely place to stay. Close to everything you would need and can take the free trolley to further spots. The unit was clean, comfortable, and had all of the essentials.

Place is small but sufficient for two people. The kitchen had everything that we needed. I enjoyed the fact that it was within walking distance to restaurants and the pier and only a short walk to the beach.

We booked for a non smoking unit, but the other 4 units were smokers which is fine. But we recieved a $500 charge for evidence of smoking and bathroom vanity damage??? The day we left. This is a complete money grab. I will be calling their proprty manager to dispute. The bathroom was outdated and had cheap towel holder that would fall apart every time a towel was put on it. With that said nice location, but not worth paying for others that smoke

Perfect spot for my wife and I. Walk to beach and shops. Only thing the cable sucks. Had to continually reset boxes and they take forever to reload. I’m used to the fastest internet in the world in Chattanooga but other than that will definitely come back.

Our first time staying on the island and it won’t be our last. Unfortunately our car broke down just before we arrived, but we didn’t really need it because everything is right there for us. Two minute walks to bridge street, the beach and more. Looking forward to our next stay.

We loved the location and being so close to the beach and Bridge street! Everything we needed was provided. The small heated pool in the back was great after a long day on the beach and biking. It’s tiny but perfect for two people.

We had a lovely week at #3 despite the weather not being too kind to us. The unit was spotlessly clean and provided all the essentials for a week’s stay including soap, toilet paper, dishwasher capsules and dish soap, dish towels, napkins, coffee filters, salt and pepper etc. There is a coin operated washer and dryer shared by the units. The location was perfect for walking to many restaurants and points of interest and the beach is a 5 minutes walk. Parking is reserved outside and much appreciated! I would highly recommend this unit for a couple.

The property was clean, quiet and a very short walk to the beach!! The beaches are GORGEOUS. Also a short walk to shops and great restaurants. The laundry is outside and cost 1.75. The only complaint would be that the property was ready earlier than 4:00- but they didn’t allow us to enter early- but they are very strict about being out by 10:00. We had a great time!

Location was great and convenient to the beach. Walkable especially since parking around bars/restaurants was at a premium.
The heated pool wasn't working during our stay.

We stayed a week in this rental and it was wonderful. The location was phenomenal. Two streets over from Bridge Street. Short walk to the beach. The rental itself was clean and everything that was advertised. The pool area was great. The kitchen was well stocked and updated. The closet was full of everything you would need to spend a day on the beach. We had a wagon, chairs, buckets, shovels, and multiple umbrellas. The rental is also fully stocked with bath and beach towels. The bedroom was a queen bed and the couch pulled out into a queen. The bathroom had a nice walk-in shower. I would recommend this rental to anyone wanting to stay in the Bradenton Beach area. 10/10 experience.

Great location, close to beach acccess, restaurants. And bus pickups! If you didn’t want to rent a vehicle and ok with using the trolley bus to get up and down the island and stores/ Conquina Beaches you can get around easily without a vehicle! To get to and fro airport would probably need to get and Uber … but can be done! I would recommend this place for a couple - with children would be tight quarters!

Had a great time at this little place, it was very clean and just enough space for two. The pool was a lovely addition, it was very clean. The owner also included a beach umbrella a trolley and chairs for the beach and a small cooler.

Should have been cleaner
First the negative. Check in was a little frustrating, the door lock box might be running out of battery. Sometimes took up to 5 inputs to get to open. Freezer smelled like fish, I mean BAD FISH...no way cleaners did not know this when cleaning prior to our arrival. I spent the first 30 min cleaning freezer..and I purchased baking soda to leave inside. Our feet were black after walking on the floor for a couple hours...again, purchased wet Swiffer pads (swiffer in closet) and cleaned the floors, they were awful. Behind bathroom door and toilet, dirty. Replaced the HVAC filter, almost black with dust and dirt and clearly hadn't been changed in a very, very long time. Its the first thing you see when opening utility closet for beach chairs and extra towels. Immediately noticed that unit was more efficient after doing so. I am in no way a clean freak and I KNOW these properties are not new, but basic cleanliness and maintaintanance are what I expect, and am paying for.
I don't know how often the owners get down to see their property, but they need to get onto the management company that is responsible for keeping it clean and maintained.
The positive...wonderful location, close to restaurants, shopping and the perfect beach access. Units were full, but people very respectful of sharing the small pool, and being mindful of noise as the pool is steps away from your door. Plenty of towels (beach and bath) and kitchen well stocked for preparing meals.
We try to leave our VRBO properties just as we found them, but in this case I think we left it better than we found it, lol.
