Family Celebration

The property is beautiful. The house is spacious and perfect for large groups. The kitchen is well equipped for food prep. Every bedroom has its own bathroom which was very important for everyone. We did not miss a sunrise or sunset from the rooftop deck! We swam everyday most of the day and same goes for fishing off the dock. We did have some initial pool troubles but management was quick to respond and we did get the problem resolved.

The house was amazing. It was great to be on the water so the kids could fish and watch the boats including many dolphins sightings!! It was a short walk to town and the beach. The house had everything and it was fun to watch the sunset from the top level. We will definitely be back!!

Great Family Vacation Spot

The house is even better than described - it seems like everything is brand new. Every bedroom is beautiful and there are more bathrooms than we could count. The pool/hot tub area is amazing. The location is perfect - just steps from Bridge Street and the pier, and a short walk to the beach. The area is very safe and family oriented. Bradenton Beach is in the process of recovering from the hurricane and their progress is remarkable. Many restaurants and shops are open and eager to do business. We would definitely return here again!

Perfect for family vacation!

House is far more beautiful and spacious than the pictures. Every room having a bathroom is priceless! Note: 1 bedroom a queen, not king. Having beach towels, beach chairs and beach carts was so helpful! Several places to eat within walking distance, along with beach access 3 blocks away. And the pool! Lovely! We didn’t catch many fish, but it was nice having the dock right there. We would definitely stay again!

Great Family Reunion Location

The property worked perfectly for our family reunion! Very seldom do you find a large rental house where every bedroom has its own bathroom. The house had just that and it was a perfect reflection of the pictures posted online. We could walk to a number of restaurants for dinners allowing us to never access our vehicles. The only time we needed to drive was to hit the grocery store only 2.5 miles up the road. We would 100% return to this property in the future.

Had a wonderful time at this home. We had a party of 14, so everyone had a room to sleep in and en-suite bathroom which was amazing! The pool was phenomenal. Alternating days at the beach and the pool was perfect! The short walk to Bridge street for dinner, drinks, ice cream and souvenir shopping made for the perfect spring break.

Awesome Home!

We were all so excited when we entered the home. The pictures don't do it justice! It's bigger than we expected and was well kept. We were all very pleased with this home and definitely recommend to anyone thinking about staying here. The management company was also excellent to deal with. We had a little issue with the elevator (probably user error) and they were there to fix it so quick we couldn't believe it! They were definitely great to deal with!

AMI Locals are the best

I’ve stayed in mini VRBO properties. The property manager at this location Hass to be the best. We arrived on Sunday evening and had trouble with the elevator. That was one of the biggest factors in our decision to rent this house. I called the property manager and someone came over Sunday evening. The pictures online were very accurate and everything in the house was fabulous. If you ever plan to go to Anna Maria Island/Bradenton Beach rent this property.

Home with a view and perfect location

We had the opportunity to stay in Bayfront Retreat over the long holiday weekend. The house was big enough to share with 4 families and offered plenty of room for both kids and adults to spread out. The dock allowed us to bring our boats, the location on the waterway was perfect and the pool provided endless hours of entertainment both during the day and at night. Communication with the rental team was great and they were available whenever we needed. We would highly recommend this property and look forward to visiting again in the future!

Wonderful Short Vacation

Stayed in this beautiful home for three nights and the accommodation was everything we could have hoped for. Property was well maintained and the location was right on the waterfront. Our whole family loved the pool area and the roof terrace provides an exceptional vista of Anna Maria Island, the harbour and the Gulf of Mexico. A truly beautiful property!

Like a boat, surrounded by dolphins

If the house is amazing (and it is), it’s location is even better. So close to Bridge Street and all the restaurants and bars! When you are on the top floor of the house, it feels more like a cruise ship than a house. You can really see the dolphins swimming in your “backyard“ from anywhere in the house. The kids loved the swimming pool, the grown ups loved having wine on the deck. Overall, we had a perfect stay.

Beautiful spacious house in fabulous location

We had an amazing stay with family from 3 - 92 years of age. We loved the Bay view and the easy proximity to the beach and restaurants. The master suite is just incredible. Foosball and cornhole were fun to play and everything we needed for the beach was there in the garage including wagons to cart it. Just a few things to note. The listing says 4 king beds but one is a Queen - just to know. Be sure to bring all cooking supplies including salt and pepper - nothing is stocked. We think the house could have a blanket for each bed for cool nights. Also there are either no or not sufficient towel racks in most of the bath rooms which would be helpful.

View can't be beat!

We loved our stay. We had an issue with pool and the technician was there within an hour. The view is beautiful. The one bedroom lists a king, but is only a queen. My only complaints are that the kitchen only came with 3 dishwasher tabs and 2 trash bags. I expected a few left over items from past renters as I've had in other rentals, but there were none. Also, very limited kitchen pots/pans if you do intend to cook. We enjoyed walking to the town to shop and walk to beach was easy and short. Pool takes a while to warm up, but it's December so wasn't surprising. Kids had plenty of space to have fun. Would love to stay again!
