Friends trip

We had a great time at this place. The decor is just so vibey and the pool and fire pit was a hit. We didn’t get to use the outdoor TV (we weren’t sure where it was or how to set it up, but we also didn’t ask about it).

Fantastic

The house was clean, quiet, and very fun. Tony went out of his way to take care of logistics and answer any questions. In fact, we accidentally had a food delivery a day early and he still made himself available to take care of it. I recommend the property without reservations.

Amazing Stay - Don't wait just book

Family vacation 2023 at this amazing, surprisingly huge, property. Even better in person than in the pictures. The house is very close to the beach, restaurants, and shops. We especially loved the back yard and the game room. The house was clean, and the host was very accessible throughout the stay. I would highly recommend; we will definitely be back.

Small Gym Showdown Trip

We loved this place. It was close to everything you needed. We loved the local grocery store Detwiler's. They have the best fresh veggies and watermelon. If you plan on staying here i would definitely say to check out Coquina Beach. It was vey clean, had picnic tables to enjoy lunch at and the beach was not crowded at all. The house offered 2 usable coolers and had pool noodles, boogie boards and even beach chairs to use. I would recommend this house to anyone. It was very spacious for our party of 12. They even offered a crock pot which we used for our taco bar night. The neighbors were very friendly and the neighborhood was very quiet.
Best grocery store we have been too.
Outdoor table great for watermelon and cantaloupe by the pool.
Spacious pool.

Great house for big group

We had 8 adults and 13 high school seniors - the property was perfect! There were multiple living areas that allowed for kids to hang out separately from the adults. We had absolutely everything that we needed. Property manager was very responsive to provide quick answers. The surrounding area was perfect - this home was a short drive to Anna Maria Beach - great shopping and amazing food! We loved using the pool hot tub. We would definitely stay here again!

Annual Florida Trip

Every year we visit as a large group with our kids and struggle to find the perfect place to accommodate. This year we found it. Tony and Christine’s place was absolutely perfect for us. It was so spacious and the kids absolutely loved the pool - especially the little waterfall feature. There were so many things to keep them entertained - from the pool floaties to the games and the big bean bag chairs, it was perfect. The location was great with a beautiful park just steps down the road and the beach a short drive away. Tony and Christine were amazing hosts with superb communication. Any issues that we had, they addressed immediately and went above and beyond to ratify. Overall we had a great vacation. If you’re looking for a great spot to stay with tons to do you’ve found it.

Such a great experience!

This luxury house is fantastic! My family and I stayed over the Labor Day weekend and had an amazing time. As you can see in the pictures there’s plenty of room for multiple people, they have some tabletop games if you’re interested in playing with your family/friends,the pool was amazing,always clean,we didn’t get to try the hot tub but most likely next time(I’m sure it is as great as the pool) Any communication you need to have with the host will be a walk in the park, he replies quick and will answer any concerns you might have!

“Better than Turks!”

“This is better than Turks & Caicos!” - 10Yr oldMy kids loved the heated pool, ping pong table, and large tv. We are a family of 6, and appreciated having plenty of space for everyone to spread out and have their own room. Manatee Beach on Anna Maria Island is an easy drive with plenty of parking, rentals, food and public restrooms. We loved this beach. We played mini golf at Smugglers Cove, and fed the baby alligators. The Ugly Grouper is a must for a delicious meal in a fun environment. I appreciated the beach towels available so we did not have to pack them. The house was supplied with everything! We had a wonderful stay. Tony was always quick to respond to any questions. 10/10 recommend!

So many memories! Clean and spacious home in a great location!!!

We loved our stay in this beautiful, spacious home. The neighborhood is safe and conveniently close to the beach. It's within walking distance to GT Bray Park, which features trails, playgrounds, and PICKLEBALL courts! The house is tastefully decorated and even larger than we expected. It was impeccably clean and provided all the amenities we could have hoped for. Everyone couldn't get enough of the huge tv! We made so many great memories! Tony was outstanding, and the check-in process was seamless. We will definitely stay here again!

Great Location, HUGE Home!

This house is so big, don't let the pictures deceive you. It's in a quiet neighborhood very close to the park and only a few minutes to the beach. The Wal-Mart is only about a mile away along with many other stores including a Target, Publix, and Whole Foods. The hosts are great, very friendly and have really thought of everything in this home. We really loved the pool, game room, and the huge dining table. Also, all of the beds were very comfortable memory foam mattresses! Book now, you won't regret it. We will be back!

Wonderful Stay ! Amazing Host!

My group of 16 stayed at Antony’s property for two nights after the previous property lost power due to Helene. Antony was very responsive and was able to accommodate us! We enjoyed this house a lot! It was renovated, the decorations made the place feel homey and fun. With a large group we really enjoyed the theater room. It had a large screen and space for us to sit and enjoy each other’s company. The rooms and bathrooms were clean, there was enough towels for everyone! We enjoyed the pool and jacuzzi as well. Overall I would definitely come back! Big thanks to Anthony for being such an amazing host!

Beautiful HUGE Home - Great Host!

AMI is the perfect January escape from the Iowa winter! This house is so much larger than it looks in the photos. Inside it’s even better in person. We loved the hot tub and the heated pool. We spent the nights either playing games at the huge table, watching movies on the 20-ft theater screen, sitting in the hot tub, or making a bonfire in the private backyard. They have thought of everything, there is so much to do, who needs the beach! Tony the host was the absolute best! We will definitely be back!

Super Home with a Super Host

We had an awesome stay at Tony’s home!! We had a large group with children and there was plenty of space and things to do inside the home. Location was great if you don’t mind a short drive to the beach. We were able to spend 3/4 days of our trip at the ocean. They provided beach towels, chairs and umbrella which was a big plus with our large group. Tony even spoke on the phone with me ahead of our stay to tell me all about the nearby beaches and local restaurant spots. Would definitely recommend this home! We really enjoyed all of the amenities the home provided and Tony was a great host.

50th Birthday Ladies Retreat a SUCCESS

We had a wonderful stay at the Tropical Villa. The home easily accommodated and slept 10 women. There’s so many amenities: stocked kitchen, tons of dishes and flatware, dishwasher, coffee machine for both ground and Keurig, toaster, protein shake blender, knives, HUGE hangout TV room with lots of seating, lots of natural light throughout, pool with the option to heat, a great jacuzzi, lots of bath and pool towels, and more. I stay at a lot of homes while traveling and this was a great one! It’s close to so many great cities too including St Petersburg and Anna Maria Island. So many restaurant options including beachfront ones just 15 minutes away. Cruise options in nearby St Pete. Just a great variety of things to do, see and eat. Tony was a great host. Easy to reach. Quick to respond. Very friendly and hospitable. I highly recommend his homes.

Awesome House and Host

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful vacation house! Four generations of our family gathered here, and it was perfect for everyone. Each couple had their own king suite with a private bathroom, which made the stay so comfortable. The kitchen was fantastic, and the huge dining table was perfect for meals together. The backyard felt like a tropical oasis, and the heated saltwater pool was a huge hit. The large patio on the side of the house was a great spot to relax, whether we were grilling, playing cornhole, or just hanging out, even when it rained. The hot tub on the side of the house was the perfect way to unwind after a day at the beach. It was wonderful to see how well Bradenton and Anna Maria Island have bounced back after Hurricane Milton. The area felt vibrant, the beaches were as beautiful as ever, and everything was open and running smoothly. It was clear that the community had put a lot of care into restoring everything. Tony was an incredible host, always making sure we had everything we needed. This home was the perfect getaway, and we’re already looking forward to our next visit!

Family Reunion 2023!

AAAAAMAZING house! We saw the pics and thought, 'This looks great for our family reunion.' But wow, the place is even better in real life and seriously massive! We had everyone from great-grandma to newborn babies, and it was perfect for all of us. No steps was perfect for the older people and the moms loved the security of the pool fence and door alarms. The neighborhood is very safe and quite, right next to GT Bray park – great for morning runs, pickleball, and tennis. Plus, we were just a short drive from Anna Maria Island and those amazing beaches with the clearest water and softest sand. The house itself is super cute and the backyard's a total win. Clean as can be, with comfy beds, a cool pool, indoor/outdoor games, and a hot tub, all wrapped up in this private, tropical paradise. The host was awesome – really friendly and knows how to host a large group. We're totally coming back for another stay!

Amazing Location, fabulous home!

From the moment we walked in, we were blown away by how big this place was. Two kitchens, two huge islands, and a massive dining table that fit all of us perfectly for meals and card games. The game room was a huge hit, and that giant 150-foot TV? Unbelievable! The outdoor ping pong table, hot tub, and pool were used every single day. Traveling with little kids can be tricky, but not here. They had cribs, portable cribs, a high chair, and tons of stuff you don’t usually get—like soap, paper towels, toilet paper, laundry detergent, spices, and even an ice machine. The kitchens had everything we needed, and the fenced pool made us feel super safe with the kids. Plus, the doors had alarms, which was a nice touch. If you stay here with kids, don't miss The Pirate Adventure in Cortez—it was a total highlight of the trip! I could keep going on about how much we loved this place and the area. The decor is even better in person than in the pictures! The owner Tony was awesome to deal with too!

LUXE6BR Amazing Stay

We had 18 people staying overnight with ages from 20 months to 82years old. The property provided plenty of outdoor space for family to gather and swim, play ping pong or corn hole, or talk at firepit. Walmart was right around the corner so very convenient when meal planning for the large group. There was plenty of large gathering areas inside for adults to talk yet other more private areas for teens to escape to recharge or do their phones. Of course, everyone lover the giant TV room with the Giant bean bags and wrap around sectional couch. The crib/playpen and high chair and all furniture was kid friendly (no glass coffee tables or sharp edges etc). If we ever do another wedding and need lots of housing then this will be one of our first choices! Of course, we loved this house so much- we are tempted to try Bourbon’s other house next time so we can compare!! We loved it- the hosts were very responsive to texts with any questions we had .. even for thing we couldn’t find. Always friendly and quick to help us. I highly recommend this for your next large mixed-age group stay!

AMAZING!!

An amazing week! When we first entered this home we were surprised at how large it was. Two kitchens, two islands, huge custom dining table which fit all of us for meals and card games. The huge game room was a hit with everyone. We've never experienced anything like the 150 foot tv. The outdoor ping pong table was used every day as was the hot tub and pool. We appreciated the grill as we ate almost all meals at the house. Travelling with infants and toddlers can be a challenge but not here. This home caters to every age. Tony and Christine have cribs, porta-cribs, and a high chair. They also supply so many amenities that no other VRBO we have stayed in supplied i.e. shampoo, conditioner, toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, Tide, spices, ice machine. The kitchens were stocked with everything you need. The fenced in pool was a game changer. No worries with the children as the doors also have alarms that can be engaged. If you are lucky enough to book this home and bring your young ones, The Pirate Adventure in Cortez is a "must do"! It was definitely a highlight of the week for the kids and adults. Also recommend the Mote Aquarium and Manatee Public Beach on Anna Maria Island and St. Armands Circle (for shopping). I could go on and on, we absolutely loved this home and the surrounding area. I forgot to mention the decor. You can see by the photos but even more charming in person. Tony and Christine were wonderful to work with!

We absolutely loved our stay! We went on vacation with our children and their family and the house is even more spacious than the pictures show. Everyone had plenty of space. The huge tv room was a hit with the kids (older and younger)! The pool and hot tub were amazing. We were able to enjoy our time outside without any mosquitoes bothering us which was a major plus. Communication with the host is probably the best I’ve ever had in all our stays using VRBO. Tony answered all our questions or concerns quickly. I recommend this property to anyone!

House is great for large groups. The heated pool was a hit with our granddaughter. Having two kitchens was very convenient for us. Tony was always quick to respond to any questions. Neighborhood has a great park at end of street. Also only about 6 miles from beach.
