The place is really exceptional truly lives up to its name. It was very clean, very tidy, and the atmosphere is absolutely pleasant.

Orange Oasis: Clean, heated pool, near beaches.
This was our first Airbnb experience and we really enjoyed our stay. We were 15 minutes away from beautiful beaches. It was super close to stores. The one issue I had were the sugar ants in the kitchen. I could not leave any food on the counters at all. I am from Florida so I understand the bugs but it can be inconvenient for longer stays. But other than that our stay was great and we would stay there again. I highly recommend this place.

Bradenton condo rentals

Luxury 3/3 Margaritaville Resort
Davidâs home exceeded our expectations and was an excellent choice for our stay. It was conveniently located near all the beaches, restaurants, groceries, and shops, but not in the midst of the bustling city center. David even provided us with a variety of beach essentials and even bikes for our convenience. The home was spotlessly clean and well-stocked with blankets, towels, and cookware and dishes. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be returning in the future.

Beach Escape & Pool, steps to Beach & restaurants
Cyndi and Colin - Thank you so much for having us! We truly enjoyed the weekend to the fullest thanks to this wonderful condo. Super close to the beach, restaurants, bars, and activities. Our favorites were Island Time (drinks), Daiquiri Deck (HH 3-7 Daily), Shore on LBK, and Drift Inn (drinks, cash only). Had an incredibly scenic dinner at Waterfront Beach House on the final night, about a 1 minute walk and you can enjoy a delicious dinner right on the beach! The condo had pretty much everything you could ever need for a beach trip, with Publix accessible nearby for anything additional we needed. Colin was so incredibly accommodating by letting us check in early and check out late. The condo was perfect size for us as a couple, and could certainly accommodate a couple small kids as well. We will absolutely be back in the area soon and will be booking with Colin and Cyndi again!

A&A's Paradise near IMG & Anna Maria beaches
We truly loved staying at this beautiful condo! It was super-super clean, modern-designed, had everything we needed, and even much more! Full spectrum of laundry/cleaning/bathroom supplies in abundance. The space is very cozy, stylish, and the location was really convenient - walking distance to Publix, good restaurants, and other useful places. Andrew and Angel are great hosts and kindest people! Responded immediately and positively to all our questions. Canât wait to get back and stay here again! We feel lucky to find this place! Thank you Angel and Andrew!
