Bay Retreat

This home is very warm and inviting. It had everything we needed and things we did not know we needed. Plenty of space for my husband and I and our kids. Pool was warm and relaxing. The sub division is very quiet.

Centrally located, close to beautiful beaches, great restaurants. House was warm and comfortable and nicely furnished. Pool was great and we had the amazing experience of seeing a manatee hang out at the dock for several hours.

We had a wonderful time in Bradenton. The home was very comfortable and welcoming. The kitchen was especially surprising as it had many things needed to cook any meal that most places wouldn't have. The canal in the back was a great feature and I appreciated the fact that there were chairs, umbrellas and beach towels available to use. Thank you for the reservation, T. Gale

Our family had an excellent time staying here. The house is very spacious, nicely furnished and very comfortable. The kitchen is incredibly well stocked so that we were able to easily prepare a full Thanksgiving dinner. The screened porch made it great for sitting out in the evenings. The canal had small fish that was great for catch and release with the kids. We had no issues while we were there and the property manager was very accommodating as we wanted to get a very early start and took care of the laundry for us. The area is beautiful and we would absolutely stay here again. All in all it was a great trip and it was a wonderful home to stay in.

We really enjoyed our stay. The house is much bigger than we had thought but quite comfortable. The pool was very nice. Overall it was nice place to get away to.

Our family of 8 stayed in the Bay Retreat home for a week, and thoroughly enjoyed it! We all slept comfortably, had plenty of room, and enjoyed the amenities. The clean home is inviting and decorated so cute, the pool is inviting, and the owners obviously went above and beyond to make sure the guests have their needs met. We appreciated the book full of information about the area and pamphlets of things to do, places to eat, etc. The back yard is right on the bay (where we saw dolphins and manatees) and the beach is 3 miles away. This is a perfect vacation spot for those who want to relax at "home" or those who want to take a very short trip to boutique shopping, dining, or enjoy the beach! I highly recommend this home and we will be back again!

This beautiful house perfectly fit our needs while vacationing. The location was ideal - conveniently close to the beaches (some days we walked, some we drove), but it was nice to stay in a quiet and peaceful development away from the commotion. The salt water pool was refreshing and well-maintained. Being located directly on a channel to the bay was a fun treat - we got to see so many cool “visitors” in the water while relaxing pool-side. I highly recommend this house to any vacationer who is looking for the best of both worlds - a quiet home with a private pool, but also just a short walk or drive to everything the area has to offer!
