We had a wonderful stay! The house was spotless, beautifully maintained, and truly felt like a home away from home. The neighborhood was quiet, safe, and beautiful, and the location made it easy to get everywhere we wanted to go in the Bradenton area.The pool was a huge bonus and was perfect for relaxing after a day out. Check-in was incredibly easy—the management team sent the access code promptly, and everything was exactly as described. They were also extremely responsive and helpful whenever we had a question.Overall, this was one of the easiest and most enjoyable vacation rentals we’ve stayed in. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable home in a great location!

Our perfect Coastal Escape

This home was cozy and clean. There were plenty of towels, and kitchen fully stocked with anything you might need to cook meals. The pool was relaxing and clean too. TVs in every bedroom was nice. And the tvs were nice and big. This house is only 15 minutes from the closet beach. We like Holmes Beach, it's a straight shot from the house. Also, there were two beach chairs there to use, along with a few floaties. Only thing I'd add is that I'd recommend bringing your own laundry detergent, and a couple extra trash bags if you have a family of 4 or more. The master bedroom shower is a bit tricky trying to turn the knob for your perfect temperature, but wasn't an inconvenience. All in all it was a very pleasant stay. We would revisit.

Week Get Away

My wife and I had a wonderful stay and truly enjoyed the opportunity to relax and spend time together. The property was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with most everything we needed for a stress-free getaway. One of the highlights was the private pool; it was the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring the local area/beaches or simply enjoy a peaceful afternoon to be still. The location was convenient while still offering a quiet, relaxing atmosphere. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and peaceful retreat.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Be Still!

The property was exceptionally clean, quiet, and very comfortable everything we were looking for in a relaxing getaway. It was conveniently located close to restaurants, shopping, and attractions, yet tucked away enough to provide a peaceful atmosphere without the crowds. We loved having the option to take a short drive to several beautiful beaches or simply spend the day relaxing by the private pool on the property. The host was also fantastic, any time we reached out with a question or needed assistance, we received a quick and helpful response. Overall, this was a wonderful place to stay, and we wouldn't hesitate to book it again. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and relaxing vacation rental.

Property was beautiful. pool was awesome and very clean.

Kitchen was well stocked. only thing that was missing was a skillet. we bought a cheap one from Walmart. bedrooms and showers were very nice as well. I have no complaints. only suggestion would be a book with some instructions. :pool guy came one morning , it was fine just didn't know he was coming, pool was on a timer, which we didn't know the first night, thought maybe something happened , tv guide maybe, some local suggestions about the beaches maybe . I was very pleased with the entire stay. I would definitely rent this house again . thank you!

Everything was great except for the beds. The mattress cover protector is cheap plastic and it would make you hot when sleeping.
