Great location to beach. Shops and restaurants trolley ride away. Well appointed furniture and large kitchen well stocked with all necessary appliances.Would like to return in the future.
Spent a long weekend with my childhood friends. There were 4 of us and we loved the large amount of space for us, the large kitchen, washer/dryer, and 2 full baths. The best part was the screened-in porch with comfy seats.

Loved It
We loved our rental unit. The bed were comfortable and we loved the screened in patio that we were able to use and the closeness to the beach! Also, really appreciated. that there was a washer and dryer!
My son and come to Anna Maria every year to enjoy warm weather, seafood, and especially Pirates baseball in Bradenton. Tortuga Beach Resort is our favorite place to stay. The location is perfect, right across the street from a white sandy beach and near many restaurants. There are two lovely pools to enjoy and lots of beach stuff is provided. Our condo had two large bedrooms and two full baths, a huge kitchen, a laundry room, and a screened lanai. Everything worked perfectly, as we knew it would, and we will definitely be back. There is an elevator for those who have difficulty with stairs.

Would stay again
This property was nice and spacious. We never felt like we were on top of each other. It was actually way bigger in person than the photos made it seems. The showers are huge and have dual shower heads in both bathrooms. That was such a great surprise. The actual property was super close to the lap pool which was nice and warm and my kids loved it for evening swims when they had enough sun. The other pool was close and a great facility. The parking garage made it easy to come on and off the property. The place has shared beach and pool toys but there’s also a closet with toys you can use during your stay. Plenty of towels and those could be taken to the beach as well. The beach location is perfect. We could walk there easily. We also could walk to several restaurants and gift shops. I would recommend bringing a sleeping mask for the main bedroom because the outdoor lights from below were very bright. We had the best time and would absolutely stay here again.
This was our first time renting this unit. It was perfect for our family of 4. The unit is well taken care of and beautifully decorated. Very spacious. The beach was steps away! We never used the pools.
1. It was a little hard to figure out where the unit was located. I recommend sending a property map when someone rents it. That was it’s easier to figure out where to park.
2. It took a us a minute to figure out how to work the front door lock. The instructions sent are not accurate. I called the number given and never got a call back.
3. The WiFi was horrible. We were unable to even make the simplest calls.
4. The unit needs blackout curtains. It is very bright and has lots of windows but only blinds. Makes it very hard to sleep in which is a vacation must!

Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy
We loved the layout of the home. The pools were great and the location to the beach was amazing. Walking distance to a lot of restaurants and shops. The beds could use more pillows….the were small and flat. But the beds itself were comfortable. Will definitely be staying again!
Absolutely perfect and spacious for our family
We will definitely be returning

Spacious
Spacious and quick walk across the street to Beach.
Property is clean and well maintained. Less than 5 min walk across the street to the beach. Covered parking. Spacious condo. Slept 4 teens and 2 adults comfortably. We ran into an issue with the ac one night and contacted someone and had a fix within the hour.
We love Tortuga Beach Resort, which is why we keep coming back. Two bedrooms and two baths are ideal and it's nice to have at least a peek of the gulf from the lanai. Providing an umbrella and beach/pool toys is useful. This particular time I am unhappy because a top that I mistakenly left in a drawer has not been returned, even though I called several times and understand that I need to pay postage.

Great location and room. Only downside were the mattresses on the beds: very hard and uncomfortable. And our floors felt like they weren’t swept, but understand some sand being close to the beach.

AMI De-Light
Garden De-Light was a great condo in a great location. The amenities were just as described. Our place was clean, larger than it appeared in the pictures, and was quiet and comfortable. The enclosed patio was a nice place to enjoy breakfast or to have a glass of wine on the evening. Bridge Street was just a short stroll away. It offered easy access to the gulf beach and the Bay for spectacular sunrises. We’ll gladly consider this place for future visits.
