The house was spacious and nice and The pool was great. If there is traffic the drive to the beach can be quit long. There wasn’t any sponges or dish clothes at all so we had to go buy some. The neighborhood is very nice and quiet.

Home is beautiful

Game room provides hours of fun! Close to Robinson Preserve for daily walks and Desoto National Park for walks with nature. Pool in yard is totally screened. Grill is great for dinners in. Bradenton is close to Sarasota and beaches and Bradenton has everything close by for shopping.

Great location!

We booked this house because of the location. We absolutely love this neighborhood it is close to our favorite park Robinsons. The neighborhood was quiet and safe. It was close to anything you would want to do. The house was large and had plenty of space. It was clean when we arrived and was a great space for us, we especially loved that they were dog friendly. We always travel with a dog so finding the perfect house for us and the pup is always a challenge. But this house was perfect.

Beautiful home for our family of 10. Transferred homes after an. Issue w Vacasa home in FT. myers. Heated pool by solar. Kids enjoyed swimming ! Only 1 tv in house but everyone was on phone or iPad. No disheags and need ant bait traps or spray as Florida homes tend to have ants in kitchen .

Great house for our vacation

We just stayed the week here. It was perfect for our family of 9. The kids enjoyed the pool in the mornings & some evenings after getting back from beach. The house is in a good location to drive to all of the different beaches in the area. We visited 6 different beaches during our week there. It was a quiet neighborhood. The house was very clean & decorated nicely when we arrived. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was suitable for all that we needed for cooking meals throughout the week. We would definitely stay here again. There were some ants in the master bathroom on the last day we were there but that's to be expected in this area & we didn't feel that it was due to lack of attention by the rental company. There is not a water slide at the pool but we knew that ahead of time from reading the other reviews.

Filthy run down house

This house smelled so bad at check in, we had to go buy air fresheners just so we could stay. Filthy inside and out. From hair filled and urine stained linens to baseboards so nasty, they look like they hadn’t been cleaned in years. Most furniture broken down, food between cushions, filthy fabric. Dirty dishes in cabinets. Holes in walls. Grimy fingerprints everywhere. It was disgusting. A few attempted upgrades, but workmanship was very sloppy. Very few level floors throughout the house. Doors fly open or won’t stay closed because of the unlevel floors. This was totally not the “Elegant” property this listing describes. We were offered the “cleaning fee” back as a refund, but that’s not enough. We feel duped by a misleading listing. Hopefully VRBO will assist with making this right, since Vacasa, the management company refuses to.

Great Property, Disappointing Management

The house and location was great, for the most part. Fit our needs and the pool was great. There was no hot water in the house for the first 3 days. All the hot water valves were turned off and even after turning them back on the master side of the house and kitchen had no hot water. We contacted vacasa on multiple occasions and it took them 3 days to delegate the issue to the local manager. He said he would send someone out (mind you this is Thursday, we leave on Saturday) to fix the issue. They never showed up and the hot water was never fixed. This house has great potential. Just needs a better management company. We will not be staying in a Vacasa rental anymore.

Great Location - but needs some TLC.

Overall the house was an "ok" place to stay. There are some things that need improvement such as a few more cookware pans, storage plastic containers, pair of scissors, mixing bowls. Also - we encountered some items needing attention before they break such as dining room chairs seats loose, table top shuffle board doesn't work properly (older and needs maintenance) the fusball table had broken handle we had to try and temporarily repair. To the home owner-sliding doors and windows will need upgrading/replaced in the next few years, they don't open easily, some missing screens, doors tracks are bent up and hard to open/close. Furniture is old and uncomfortable in the living room. Pool bricks are cracked and broken and pool screen door is broken. But overall - we were happy with the accommodations due to the great location. Would I stay at the same house again - probably not, would try another house and hope newer updates were done. The neighborhood was really nice and even some of the neighbors were very friendly. great neighborhood for the family. A school park was very close (Tennis, soccer, pickleball, etc.).

Review is regular

We had a bad experience with the air conditioner on 83-84 for the whole weekend. Finally the tech came Monday morning and fixed, after 48 hrs hot. The rest of the experience was great. My recommendation is that please make sure the air conditioner work properly before the gest come in. It Is sad to had that black point in a great vacation experience.

Great for multigeneral family!

The house had plenty of space for everyone. The game room was fun. the pool was fun but cold since we had a cold snap but that is seasonal. the neighbors were super friendly. Beds were comfy and the kitchen was big enough to have lots of people in it at one time. I loved this house and we were close to the beach. It was easy and fun. Would definatly come back!!!!

Nice place to stay

The home was a very nice place to stay. The kitchen was wonderful, had everything we needed to make meals, and with the kitchen table and family room right there, everyone was able to mingle and hang out together. We met both of the neighbors on each side, and they are wonderful people. There were a few minor things with the home that did not affect enjoying our stay there (paper towel holder missing a nut, undercounted lights taped up and fell lying on the counter, trash can pull out did not work properly), and we reported them to Vacasa. All of the linens were provided and there were plenty of towels. Extra large washer and dryer, tho they ask you to start the laundry before you leave, yet did not provide detergent or dryer sheets. They did provide trash bags for the kitchen as well as dishwasher, dish and hand soaps at the sinks which was nice! The home is very clean. There was a snafu with the pool for a few days. The pump had something falter and it started draining the pool. While Vacasa was responsive initially, the pool guy did not communicate, and we had no idea what was going on. Granted, we were there over the 4th of July, and people are trying to enjoy time with their families, but communication could have been better. In addition, when going to the beaches on Anna Maria Island, BEWARE that they do not like out of town guests. If you read their county ordnances, it's stated clearly. We parked on a beach access and were not aware that it has the same rules as the main roads, parallel parking with right tires against the curb (even if there isn't one). We received a $75 ticket, and a $4.50 service fee for paying on-line. Now, we were driving a large Chevy Suburban, and thought it safest to face the road in the parallel parking, as to not back out into the road, and the vehicle too large to park perpendicular, or turn around when the lot is full. You get one appeal, and it doesn't matter your reason for anything, they want you to pay on-line. We parked on the same beach access road at 33rd street, for 3 days straight, and they ticketed us Friday, when they knew we were out of town (rental car), and wouldn't be able to spend time going to the courthouse to fight the ticket. Parking at the main beach access lot as you come into the beach is a madhouse, we preferred to park further down where it is less crowded. The beaches are AMAZING!!! But please be careful where/how you park, and leave the beach as you found it
