About this house rental
Whether you’re a bird or a bird-watcher, you can’t find a better place to perch than Parrot Landing, a three bedroom, two bath charmer on the outskirts of Cortez, just a hop, skip and a jump to the beaches of Anna Maria Island!
Filled with Old Florida vibes, Parrot Landing is stocked with loads of personality and all the accoutrements to make your family happy, including big, comfy sofas in the living room, plenty of beds for everyone, games to play, smart TVs to watch, a pool to splash in, and tropical landscaping that never lets you forget you’re in Florida!
And don’t forget the native species! You don’t have to be a binocular-toting bird watcher to enjoy the flocks of bright green parrots that make this neighborhood their home. Their loud cries make them particularly noticeable, but loads of other feathered creatures flock here as well, including the occasional roseate spoonbill, ospreys and hawks searching for their next meal, pileated woodpeckers, and even the occasional bald eagle!
The charm starts even before you reach the front door, with unique tropical plantings lining the path to a deck filled with colorful Adirondack chairs, the perfect spot for gathering for a drink. Inside the house, you’ll find a large living room with loads of comfortable seating where the whole family can stream movies or play games. Kids might want to slip off to the large twin bedroom on one side of the kitchen; its generous floor is a great place for games or puzzles, or they can stream their own programs on the smart TV.
Time for some rest? That twin bedroom also has two twin trundles that pull out easily at bedtime. Two other bedrooms are nestled on the other side of the living room. One features a king-size bed, and the other offers two queen beds and an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower. A second bathroom is located outside these two bedrooms and is easily reached from the twin room.
The retro eat-in kitchen, which is well-equipped for preparing family meals and snacks, is open to the living room. However, you’ll probably want to do most of your cooking outside…with a gas grill, a Big Green Egg, and a smoker, cooking and dining al fresco is a natural choice! A large octagonal picnic table located by the pool is the perfect place for everyone to feast.
Of course, you’re in Florida to swim in the pool and take the family to the beach! The big above-ground pool has plenty of room for everyone, and can be heated for an additional charge. You can also swim in the crystal clear waters of the Gulf of Mexico, just across the Cortez Bridge. In between you’ll find restaurants, shops, and even the free Anna Maria Island Trolley that runs from Coquina Beach in Bradenton Beach all the way up to the Historic Anna Maria Pier in the village of Anna Maria.
This wonderful Florida home sleeps 10 people in one king, two queens, two twins, and two twin trundles. Need to sleep a few more? Check our website or call our office for information about Kapok and Banyan, located just across the street.
A NOTE ABOUT POOL HEAT: If you book online, your reservation will automatically populate with a pool heat charge for one week. If your reservation is for a longer period, someone on our staff will adjust the pool heat rate to reflect the longer stay. We recommend pool heat at this property, regardless of the time of year, as pools near shady trees stay cooler, even in the summer.

House was good and spacious, as a suggestion, should be an outside shower before using the pool, the driving distance to the beach is short, and if you're lucky the manatee will be swimming next to you

It was a nice location with easy and quick access to the beach. The kids loved having the pool to play in when we were at the house.

Hurricane Debby came in and the streets were flooded. We were having a wedding on Monday morning. We were suppose to stay in the house on Sunday night, but were afraid we would get trapped, and some of our party couldn't go through the water that was already there. I texted and ask if we could get any credit since we were not going to use it but one night, and the county was warning to stay off streets. The person said that was just too bad. Should there have been any credit for that?

We had a great stay at this VRBO! It had plenty of space for our family and was within a few miles of the beach! We enjoyed time by the pool soaking up the sun! Beautiful place!
10.0
We had a wonderful time. The pool was amazing and clean and the beach was a very short drive away over the bridge. We had such a lovely time here. The property manager was very attentive to anything we may have needed which wasn’t much because they had the house ready. I will be making another reservation here

My friends and I stayed here for a girls trip/bachelorette weekend and this house was PERFECT! The owner/property manager was very fast in responding to messages and everything was well stocked with the basic toiletries. The living room was very spacious with very comfortable seating. The kitchen was also great and well stocked, even though we only used the refrigerator. It’s such a cute place with great beach decorations throughout!

This property looks amazing. We really wished we would have been able to stay here. Unfortunately, after reserving the property and reading the contract, we found the property was not able to accommodate the breed of our dogs. The management company was very responsive and helpful in navigating the return of the reservation fee.

My family of 5 (3 teens) really enjoyed our stay. The house had everything we needed and enough space to spread out. Questions we had were quickly answered through texts. Only confusion we ran into was from booking on vbro the pet limits were not listed. A call to the office cleared everything up before we got there. The yard was perfect for our small dogs. The house has coffee maker with the pods. The ceiling fans/lights in the rooms all had remotes and were a nice extra. We did find that the signals would get mixed. You thought you were turning off your fan or lights but would be turning off the other rooms fan/lights instead. The kids enjoyed the pool and we throughly enjoyed our stay. It was super close to all the beautiful beaches!

House was great, when we first pulled in we were not sure but it ended up being a nice little neighborhood, only a few mintutes from the beach. We rented a golf cart and were able to drive it back and forth from the beach each day! Over all we would recommend it and would stay there again!
8.0
This was a convenient place to stay that was not to far from the beach or town. The Catholic Church was close by. It had a very homey feel. The kids enjoyed the pool. The extra refrigerator was a great add. Especially for so many people celebrating my mom's 80th birthday.
The only problem we had was that we could not find the remote for the living room television.b

Perfect price and very convenient location to all we had scheduled at Anna Marie Island. Recommending property to friends.

Water didn’t drain in tub. Very low water pressure in back bathroom. People showing up most days to shock pool needs to be done when you don’t have people staying showing up to water plants. It was like they were spying on you!!! Floors really need a good mopping feet got black just walking across them.. house was really pretty just needs a little work. Nice guite neighbor hood.

Great location and super close to the Beach. If you want a less busy beach go south to long boat keys.

My daughter and her friends loved this rental and the close proximity to Anna Maria Island. A wonderful weekend to celebrate her birthday!

The house was very clean, very cute, and exactly as described. It was in a great location, not far from longboat key, Anna, Maria Island, and Bradenton. Beware, there is a ceramic blue parrot hanging in one of the trees around the pool, this caught me off guards several times and always made me laugh. I would totally stay here again.

A great home that gave us a true Floridian feeling during or stay in Sunny Shores and beautiful memories that will last forever. That to us is what it truly is all about. Great central location and a wonderful friendly neighborhood . A special thank you to Doug who lives right across the street and maintains the home he is a true saint and made us feel so relaxed and at home . A great tour guide and host as well letting us know all the best places to go ! 😘👍

The whole stay was perfect, the only regret is we weren’t down there for vacation versus being at a soccer tournament. The house was virtually spotless and very relaxing with the various birds and flora fauna. We spent a lot of time watching the birds wasting out of the feeder. The only issue we had was the ceiling fans remotes control fans in other rooms of the house, ie bedroom fan turns on the other bedroom fans/lights. We will definitely stay down there again should we need to vacation or otherwise. I loved cooking on the Green Egg which is just like mine at home. Thank you!!!
8.0
The location was super convenient. The information provided prior to our stay was a little disappointing. Most items that they said would be provided to get started were not there i.e. laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, etc. It would have been nice if they let us know what type of coffee maker so we could have bought the correct type of coffee.
8.0
This property was what we were looking for. A place to relax and get away from winter for a few weeks. The floor plan is a bit different and all the light switches and remote controllers were confusing, although the place was pretty much as advertised. Friendly neighborhood folks who we spoke with while dog walking. Just a short drive to the beach and other amenities.

Very nice house and location.
10.0
The property was very nice and well kept, plenty of space for my family and guests. I absolutely loved the beach theme and setup in the house.
I wish there was more lighting outside, front and backyard. Other then that we had a great stay without any issues in the property. I would come back and stay here again.
8.0
So the house was super cute, decorated really nice with a beach theme. The neighborhood is not really what we expected.. it wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t “nice”.. it’s a mix of nicer and def not nice homes. A trailer park on the next street, but overall it was quiet. We saw a coyote in the neighborhood so be careful with your smaller dogs. The backyard was completely fenced so our dog didn’t use the front yard. The house was equipped with everything you could need. The beach bags we found in the hall closet was a nice bonus bc we def used them! Pool was good, warm but a lot of chemicals so it burned the kids eyes. The misquotes are BAD back there so bring bug spray! Pool floats are in the shed.. the noodles were in bad shape and the boards were old and cracked. A fire pit would have been a great touch to the backyard! The bedroom with the one bed had a super hard mattress but I was so exhausted I passed out anyway. The room with the two twin beds had trundles so that room was perfect for all the kids. Laundry room in basement & fully equipped kitchen. We’d stay here again for sure. It was really close to the beach too but we didn’t end up going to that beach we took the 45 min drive to siesta keys. There’s a great ice cream shop 3 minutes from the house too! Def have to check that place out
