Enjoyed our second stay at the retreat. Jame and Regan have been very responsive to any inquiry. The place was well supplied when we got there. Plenty of room to relax inside or out. Planning to be back in 2025.

Great location 10 minutes from the beach. Safe quiet neighborhood for running and kids biking in the street. Thanks to the outdoor screening, patio and house were clean and completely bug free. Hot tub and heated pool were a win and main reason we booked. House was spacious and had all the things you need from condiments to trash bags to pool toys, towels and life jackets. Beds were comfy and the closet converted to an extra bunk was perfect for our 2 yr old! Due to cold temps, manatees weren’t in the bay but according to locals, they normally are which is a short walk from the house. Communication with James was great and he even gave some local recommendations for us. We are coming back next year and would very likely stay again if we come to the same town.

Me and my family rented this property for the week of Thanksgiving 2023 and had a fantastic time. We loved the Spanish forward vibe of the house / courtyard and the pool / hot tub were outstanding. It says saltwater pool and hot tub but you do not taste salt at all or feel that on your skin. I was a bit worried about that when booking but it was not an issue at all. The location of this property is located in the middle of everything with shopping / groceries / dining all within a stones throw of the house. The area / subdivision is very well kept and safe to walk or ride bikes around the area. Everything in the house was labeled very well and the kitchen was stocked with most of the things you will need to make any kind of meal. We had a multi course Thanksgiving meal for 8 to give you an idea of what we had to work with so there is no shortage of kitchen items. Anna Maria island is only a few minutes away which has some very nice beaches and great island viby stores and restaurants. Lastly, the communication between the host and us was great. They answer their phone every time we had a question (even on Thanksgiving) and called back to make sure we got what we needed. Me and my family highly recommend this property to anyone thinking of booking in the Bradenton area. I am sure we will book again the next time we are staying in this area.

Family and grandkids. Great location and well equiped house perfect for a relaxing time and close and convenient to the beaches. Great little marina with manatee's just a few houses away.

Outstanding time with family, we spent a week and it was like home… the home was beautiful, the amenities were incredible. James and Regan thank you for everything, the property had everything you could want for a beach vacation. This will be on the return list. Highly recommend staying at this property, we saw manatees right at the end of block, we did some fishing and bike riding (fishing poles and bikes all part of the property) Thank you again for your hospitality!

Our family of 8 had such an amazing week together in this super spacious yet cozy home. Honestly felt like home and it had an awesome screened in (no critters!) private heated pool and hot tub. Absolutely convenient to everything. Plenty of beaches to choose from just a short drive away. I could go on and on!

This was our second time staying here and everything was perfect as usual! Check-in was simple, house had everything you needed, close to beaches & shopping, the pool area was awesome, and the owners are very accommodating. Will definitely be staying again in the future!

We had such a wonderful stay. The hosts were so kind and acommodating. The property was very well equipped with anything you might need. The location was amazing, close to Anna Maria Island and some beautiful beaches. A fun surprise was that the property was also a short walk to a little outlet with great manatee viewing. Peaceful neighborhood, beautiful enclosed pool. Would absolutely stay again.

This property more than exceeded our expectations. The pictures do not do it justice. It is very toddler/preschool friendly with lots of little extras that just enhance the experience. My 4-year old granddaughter fell in love with the book nook/daybed and all of its Disney books. If there was a way to give this property a “6” I would do it! We have already booked for next year… that decision was made on the first day we were there!!

Property is well stocked and clean. Close to everything. Great pool and hot tub. A very enjoyable holiday.

The house was in a perfect location just 10 minutes from the beaches. Nice neighborhood, pool and hot tub. Very roomy with plenty of kitchen supplies, etc. Even had a Christmas tree! We definitely plan to return.

This house was exactly as it’s listed. Full of necessities like spices, dishes, pots, pans, toilet paper, towels etc. great location. Nice neighborhood close to beautiful beaches. We lived in the beautiful pool and hot tub. The owners were always available if we needed anything. I would highly recommend this house. We loved it.

We had a fantastic stay and vacation in Bradenton, the accommodation is exactly as pictured, well equipped and in perfect working order, and is in a fantastic location, close to perfect beaches, water sports, and exploring everything that this great location had to offer. Absolutely flawless from start to finish and we will definitely be back!

We had a great time in the property,the area is ideal for fishing,jet skiing & going on the beach.

Our family had the most wonderful time & experience! The house was fully stocked, very clean and comfortable, plenty of room for us, and the perfect location!! The pool was perfect temperature and well maintained. We would definitely come again!

This was a great spot for a wonderful vacation. It was clean, well appointed with all the things you need to have fun, no matter the age. We met grandparents for a family vacation and all three generations were comfortable. The pool with the large covered seating area was a perfect place for everyone to talk while the kids were swimming. There was plenty of room to sit at the many dining tables. And all the beds were really comfortable. And Anna Maria island was a really short drive away for beautiful beaches. (though we had trouble finding parking at the public beaches on the weekend. There was plenty available when we went otherwise). And we loved being 2 blocks from the inlet where we could see the manatee each morning. We would definitely stay again.

VERY NICE MAY GO BACK NEXT YEAR

The house was exactly as described. It had all the amenities our group needed—from beach and pool necessities to kitchen and bath supplies. We brought our own French press and had the use of the house press also.. The pool and hot tub were an A+ and plenty of towels for showering and beaching were supplied. The kitchen was well stocked and the spacing throughout the house gave one the feeling of immense proportions..

This rental had everything you need for your beach vacation. The little ones enjoyed the pool and Grammy enjoyed the hot tub! Beaches were an easy 15-20 minutes away! Although we weren’t fortunate to see them there is a Manatee viewing area at the end of the street.

The whole family really enjoyed their stay. The house felt spacious, yet very comfortable. My husband especially liked having our giggling, stay-up-late teens girls on the other side of the house. There were multiple seating areas for meals and spending time together. And having 3 bathrooms helped out so much when trying to get 3 girls ready at the same time. Everyone really, really enjoyed the pool & spa. Again, the pool and backyard were spacious enough to accommodate all of us, yet still felt like you had privacy from the neighbors. The house has EVERYTHING you need - chairs, umbrellas and coolers for the beach & all kinds of kitchen and bathroom items. You can tell the owners really care about their guests having a great stay.

The home is spacious, very well maintained and inviting. It’s close to shopping, restaurants, beaches and parks. It includes everything you need for a delightful stay.

Beautiful home, met all our needs. Fully equipped in excellent location to the Anna Maria beaches. James and Regan were always available to communicate with. They are the perfect hosts. We'll definitely be back!

Beautiful home, well maintained plenary of room. After long days being active in the sun the pool and hot tub were wonders to come home too. Kitchen has all you need for cooking meals.

We had such a great stay at James and Regan’s house! The house is well stocked, comfortable! It feels like a home more than a vacation home- it has quality dishes, cookware, and silverware (something we rarely see when renting properties) The pool is great- and you are so close to everything! James and Regan are super responsive and great hosts. Can’t recommend this place enough!

We had a great time staying at the property over Christmas break! The property was clean and as described and our hosts were easy to communicate with. Shopping, restaurants and entertainment were all within a short drive and we even saw some manatees at the park down the road which was a thrill for the kiddos in our group. We would definitely stay here again.

This home was absolutely perfect, very well cleaned and stocked with amenities! We all enjoyed the pool and hot tub.. The location was great close to everything. We will definitely be keeping this place in mind for our next time down! The host were also so very wonderful to work with.

Our family had an amazing time staying here- close to the beach, with a heated pool! We even walked down to the water and saw Manatees! Close to shopping and restaurants, I highly recommend this home and communication with the owner was fast and friendly.

This rental was great! The house was very clean and accommodating. There were lots of convenient amenities (towels, dishes, even kids life jackets for the pool). The pool and spa area were so nice.

Great property and managers were very responsive to questions. The garage is fully stocked with beach umbrellas, chairs, fishing gear, even bikes. Very nice enclosed pool and hot tub. The perfect place for a family vacation. My only suggestion to the owners would be to turn the hot tub temp up a bit. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Family loved staying here. Kids loved the pool. Great location near Anna Maria Island and beaches.

The home is very clean! It was everything the owners said it was and more. They really have done what they can to make your stay perfect! We will be back!!!

Everything was wonderful, we loved the heated pool and hot tub! How could you go wrong with it lol! The only thing we had a hard time with was the Wi-Fi and cable. I myself don't watch alot of TV, however my husband and toddler on the other hand does, so if they're frustrated then we all gotta be frustrated lol. At the end of our stay my husband said we will rent again so I definitely recommend!
