HEATED POOL... A private outdoor living area with grill, fire pit, and hot tub!

Discover the tranquility of Bradenton Beach, nestled on the serene Anna Maria Island along Florida's Gulf Coast. Welcome to Island Breeze, Unit A—a charming vacation rental offering the perfect blend of comfort and convenience amidst the idyllic backdrop of this old Florida town.

Situated just a block and a half from the pristine Gulf beaches and the inter-coastal waterway, Island Breeze is a beautiful duplex crafted in 2008. Tucked away in a peaceful community, yet conveniently close to the island's finest dining, shopping, and entertainment options. The house offers two mirror image units so you really can't go wrong with either one.

Step into the newly decorated great room, where comfort meets coastal elegance. This inviting space opens up to a spacious deck, perfect for soaking in the warm Florida sun. The kitchen, designed for both functionality and style, awaits your culinary adventures. A spiral staircase off the kitchen leads to the rear deck, providing convenient access to the alley access parking area.

Retreat to the master bedroom, adorned with coastal furnishings and a plush king-size bed. Enjoy moments of relaxation on your private deck, offering glimpses of the gulf and two inviting chaise lounges. Indulge in the spacious master bath, featuring a large two-person walk-in shower.

The queen bedroom exudes "Island chic" style, boasting breathtaking views of Palma Sola Bay. Meanwhile, the cozy third bedroom offers comfortable bunk beds with custom ensembles and the family room couch offers a queen sleeper sofa - ideal for families or groups.

On the ground level, a large Florida room awaits, adjacent to the newly built pool (2020). The private "Kitchenette" area offers a cozy spot to unwind, complete with its own TV and refrigerator with ice maker. Outside, the lanai beckons with its gas fire pit and exterior seating—perfect for chilly evenings or post-dip relaxation in the three-person hot tub.

Island Breeze, Unit A, comes fully equipped with all the amenities you need for the perfect vacation, including bicycles, a beach cart, chairs, towels, beach toys, and coolers.

Escape to Island Breeze, where relaxation and adventure await amidst the sun-kissed shores of Bradenton Beach.

Family Girls Trip
We stayed at this property together as sisters with our mother. The property was in excellent condition and exactly as advertised. We stayed at this property due to all of us wanting our own rooms and the privacy was well worth it! We’d love to go back next year with more family to stay at the adjacent unit. The property manager never took more than 10 mins to respond to questions and was very communicative. We hope to be back soon!

Perfect Family Getaway
The location is unbeatable—just a short stroll to the stunning beach, making it incredibly convenient for our daily beach outings. The house itself is impeccably maintained with a gorgeous interior that is both stylish and comfortable, accommodating guests of all ages seamlessly. The pool was crystal clear and perfect for cooling off after a day at the beach. We especially loved the shaded area under the pool deck, providing a great spot to relax out of the sun while still enjoying the poolside atmosphere. It was perfect for the kids to play safely and for the adults to unwind. This house truly offers the best of both worlds—a tranquil retreat with all the comforts of home and easy access to the beautiful beach. We can't wait to return and make more wonderful memories here.

Such a great property and everything you need, just pack your bags! Super clean and plenty of space to relax. Love all the balconies which gives me the option to just lay out read a book, enjoy my morning coffee and enjoy the beach. Quick walk to the beach, literally minutes. I will stay here again!

Great house!
The house was fantastic for our family of five. Everything you need plus outstanding outdoor area. We took advantage of the pool, hot tub, grilling with an outdoor kitchenette and dining on the second floor balcony. The only downside was not being able to stay longer!

Nice Beach Get-a-way
Very nice home. Well equipped and comfortable. Hot tub was nice as was the heated pool. Had no neighbors sharing the other half of house while we were there, so the extra privacy was nice. Very prime location so all houses are close together. Very short walk to both Gulf and Bay beaches. Lots of things to do. Overall a very comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Wonderful Stay!
I can’t say enough about this amazing home. The accommodations and amenities were more than plenty. Debra, the host, was very responsive and thoughtful. The bed was super comfy. Even though the weather was on the cooler and wetter side, being close to the beach (1 min. Walk) made up for everything. This is a wonderful stay!

Be achy birthday
Property seemed tired. Toilet lids are scratched/stained, hot tub didn’t work (a big deal since it was cool at night), pool bubble heater was no where to be found, stair treads were stained & gross, and finally, the ceiling fan in bedroom two (queen) made the most awe full sound that kept everyone that tried that room awake.

Great location
The location to the beach was the best part of this rental, Although the description and photos of the property are accurate and you definitely are getting what you rented, keep in mind it is not a beachy vibe inside but it was clean. It seemed to be well stocked although we didn’t cook. We had some trouble with the entrance keypad but Debra let us know right away and gave us an alternate way to enter. Debra was very responsive and got back to us quickly the few times we reached out which was great. The only negative I would say is that you are required to start the laundry before you leave, make sure all dishes are cleaned and put away, and trash is out which for 4 adult women not a big deal but if you had a family with kids and trying to get packed and out of the rental by 10 all of this would be difficult. It’s a lot of work to check out of a place that you paid a cleaning fee for. This was disappointing. The listing does mention this but you should be aware of it bc it’s def something that would get overlooked. We own a rental property and rent properties often on VRBO and would never ask someone to do this nor have we had to do this. At the very most we’d have to start the dishwasher. That’s what the cleaning fee we pay is for when renting on this platform. You’re about 1-1.5 walk down to Bridge Street where there are lots of restaurants and bars. AMI is about the same distance going the other direction, which is also where you’ll find Publix and Walgreens/CVS.
