The backyard is definitely the highlight for us and the reason we chose this place. The decor was so cute, the feeling homey and we were very comfortable. Having a heated pool was a game changer! It’s perfectly located between the Bradenton convention center where we had a cheer competition and the beaches. we will definitely come back! ##### Scott C. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Nikki C. 15 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication #### Not the Barracuda The duplex was clean but I'm glad there were only two of us as it's small. I'm thankful the landlord had a place for us to stay. The amenities are excellent, and the neighborhood is a little loud. But the location is great for getting to and from Anna Maria. Overall, these are good, honest, and caring people to rent from. ##### Nikki C. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kevin and Jeanine D. 3 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Slice of Heaven in Cortez The back yard is worth the price of admission alone! Wonderfully landscaped and meticulously maintained. Beautiful to look at, fenced and secluded, Great play area for the dogs and then to top it off, a heated pool! House very neat and well stocked. Easy in and out and quick access to the beech, nature walks, restaurants and grocery stores including a Detwiler's. Quiet neighborhood off the beaten path. If you are thinking about a stay in Cortez, I highly recommend this place. Kevin Daugherty ##### Kevin and Jeanine D. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Randi W. 10 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Cortez Vacation Overall we enjoyed our 5 week stay at Barracuda, We loved the pool and backyard. The appliances seemed new and beds comfortable. This is an older home that has been renovated and rooms are smaller. The living room was pretty tight for 5 adults and the couch and chairs could be more comfortable. The neighborhood is still recovering from the Fall hurricanes and some homes and mobile homes are still in bad shape. Definitely need a car to get to beaches, restaurants and stores. Our host was very responsive to our requests. ##### Randi W.
