You couldn’t choose a more charming home base for your next beach getaway than this pretty, coral pink cottage. Perfectly situated on a quiet, dead end street, you’re steps from the bay and the sandy Gulf Coast beaches.
Inside, you’ll find an open, completely remodeled space, with new flooring, windows, and paint. New furnishings in a soothing blue and gray palette add to the relaxation factor. The kitchen features new stainless steel appliances and all the gadgets you need to whip up a feast - or just a snack for the beach. Grab a barstool at the kitchen island or dine together at the window-front table for two before heading out. The beach is moments away, and you’re an easy drive from Holmes Beach, Anna Maria Island, St. Armands Circle, and Longboat Key.
When you return, relax in the updated central air-conditioning while you stream your favorite shows on the smart TV using your own accounts. If you’re stepping out for the evening, the restaurants and bars of Bridge Street are less than half a mile away. After a day at the beach (and the night at a beach bar), head home to your cozy nest to rest up for another perfect beach day tomorrow. This cottage offers two comfortable bedrooms plus a queen-size sofa bed located in the pass-through to the main bedroom.

Our stay was perfect, the house was as described, very clean and modern. The location was perfect for us, quiet, yet close to all of the things we wanted to do!

This house is managed by Vacasa. We were notified, by them, several months before our stay about the back bedroom having hvac issues. We were told that the house was now listed as a 1 bedroom rather than a 2 bedroom. When I asked for a price adjustment due to paying for a 2 bedroom the Vacasa people were very rude. One told me I could cancel. Another asked how I even got her phone number (It was in her email telling me of the change to a 1 bedroom.) I thought the house would probably be fine since it was October, as that is what Vacasa said. However, the back bedroom was extremely warm. It is a glass sun room that they have put up paneling on the inside over the glass. The portable air conditioning did nothing to cool the room off. It also should be noted that you have to walk through one bedroom to get to the back bedroom. So if you plan to put a child in the, twin bedroom, you will have to walk through their room to get to the room with a queen bed. I have stayed in many VRBO locations. This is the first time there were no guest recommendations as far as restaurants or things to do. There were also no instructions for checkout procedures. The house is updated, cute and clean. It is in a great location. But it has some issues and Vacasa did not try to try help with that.

The location was just about as good as it could get. The house is super cute but had a hard time keeping cool. The master bedroom doesn’t have insulation so it couldn’t cool off. We ended up using the sofa bed in the living room as a master bed. Not ideal. Otherwise great spot though.

This place is beautiful! Its a walk away from the bay and across the street to the ocean. The location was amazing.! It was very clean and had everything we needed.
UNFORTUNATELY we did not read the reviews until after we returned home. All the reviews say the same thing so nothing have been changed or will be changed.
The main bedroom is actually a sun porch turned into a bedroom. Their are wall to ceiling outdoor windows that crank open. They tried to glue them shut, put some curtains up, and put a few vents in for the air conditioning. But with all the doors open in the house it couldn’t get under 80s in the day time. But if we shut the main bedroom door it would get to 76 at night. But then the main bedroom room was over 90. We contacted the booking place and they were so nice and helpful and brought a portable air conditioner but it could only go in the kitchen window. Then an air conditioner guy came and looked at it and said there was nothing he could do the unit was too small for the house. So we had to stay out of the main bedroom in the day time.
A lady contacted us and was so nice to check on us and said she would move us locations but we were on vacation with friends and they were beside us and we didn’t want to move. She said that they would contact the owners and see about getting us a discount because we were being very nice. We provided them with videos and pictures so they would see what the temperatures were.
However I have heard nothing from them.

We had a great time. House is close to everything. They were a little stingy with the mirrors and toilet paper though. Other than those minor complaints, I would definitely rent this house again.

My daughter, her friend and I had a nice stay at this property. We were looking for sun and found it at the beach just about one block away. It was an easy walk to "downtown" for shopping and dining. The house had all we needed. Would stay again.
3.0
The house is in a great location, close to the bay & beach. Traffic is unbelievable this time of year. Bumper to bumper traffic from Noon to 9pm. I rented a bike so I didn’t have to drive during the day. The bedroom in the listing doesn’t look like the photos. It has odd window coverings everywhere to keep the extreme sun out. The cooling system doesn’t work in the bedroom during the day. It needs looked at/more efficient windows need installed instead of the glass louvers. There is an exterior motion sensor light that comes on outside the bedroom and makes it like daylight in the room at night whenever it’s tripped, which is often. After a few days we finally figured out the thermostat-instructions in the unit would be helpful. Don’t expect beach chairs - bring your own. The screen door needs fixed. It would barely open. There were no instructions for checkout anywhere other than ones that didn’t make much sense from an auto-generated VRBO message. I really like the house and it looks like they’ve spent a lot on upgrades but it’s overpriced for the problems it has.

My husband and I, loved our time, at your lovely beach bungalow. You did a beautiful job renovating, this sweet little home. We loved the quietness of the street, the walking distance to the beach, restaurants, the bay view.
We loved how close, your home was to Coquina Beach.
We were both loved your beach home.

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.

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.
