Perfect Spot

I used this property for a business trip so I didn't get to enjoy all of the luxuries as much as I'd want to, but it was perfectly located and had everything I needed. Super clean, bedrooms were great and spacious. The pool is a big bonus - very relaxing! I would recommend this property to those looking to stay with their families or with friends. It's conveniently located to the beach with a short 10 minute drive. Thanks for a great stay!

Family vacation

We enjoyed our stay at your place. It was a family vacation so we had our children and two grandchildren. The location was good and close to AMI. Appreciated all the beach supplies, chairs, umbrellas, toys and especially the wagon! Thank you for all of that. Also having the high chair and pack n play available was so helpful. This place is truely set up for a family vacation.The neighborhood was nice and safe as we enjoyed walks to see the sunset and the manatees in the bay. My only complaint is that i felt the house could have been a little better stocked with supplies, kitchen and cleaning. But overall we had a wonderful time. Thank you

This is a perfect property for a family. Great for all ages. Pool perfect size for our group of 7. We opted for the heat in pool and temp was perfect for the littles. All living spaces were generous and comfortable. Eating areas both indoor and outdoor were perfect. Kitchen was large and well equipped. We hope to return and would recommend to anyone.

Extremely spacious home. Many items to help keep the family enjoying vacation. I have stayed through VRBO a few times. These owners by far went above the norm as far as Incidental necessities at the home. Trash bags, detergent, lil supplies that helped so much. Lovely home would definitely recommend.

Great Getaway during Soccer Showcase

We are 3 moms traveling with our teen daughters to a soccer showcase in Lakeland Park. We were able to get to Manatee Beach (beautiful beach and the host provides beach chairs and other beach supplies! So great!) during our downtime and the house was perfect! Huge kitchen, well equipped for everything we needed. Pool was AWESOME! We had so much fun! The house was generously sized for 7 women. The host was responsive and very accomodating. I HIGHLY recommend this home - it was really perfect!

Just Amazing

This property is one of the best we've been. Everything is entirely new and spotless. Tasteful decoration and an incredibly comfortable layout made our vacation a dream. We stayed during Thanksgiving break. We were two families with a total of 6 kids under 12. The house is perfect for groups this size. Our kids enjoyed the pool, all the beach, and pool toys; the drive to Ana Maria Island is only 10 minutes. We needed to communicate with the owner during our stay, and she and the property manager were very responsive. We highly recommend this property.

Oh the memories….

We truly enjoyed our stay at “The Palm”. Everything was exactly as described. The house is beautiful. It is stocked with all the necessities without a ton of items cluttering the cabinets. We loved that we did mot have to bring towels for the beach. The garage has a cooler, two umbrellas, pool toys. The neighborhood is stunning and I definitely recommend taking a walk seeing the beautiful houses and sunsets over the inter coastal. Amanda was a wonderful host, gracious, and very responsive. I cannot say enough how much we enjoyed our vacation. At first we were hesitant to stay on the mainland but the short drive over the bridge was worth it, given the spacious lots and houses which the neighborhood provides. Thank you again for a wonderful time which we will cherish forever.
