Spring break family trip

The condo is decorated beautifully. The space was great for my family of 4. The kitchen was well equipped. We cooked everyday and had everything we needed. I gave it a 4 on cleanliness because we did have to wash most of the dishes before we used them. There were cups put away that literally had sand in them. The floor had dirty shoe prints on the tile when we arrived. I dont think it was mopped by the cleaning crew before our arrival. The pool was heated and a favorite for my kids. The location is nice. I would stay here again.

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad to hear that the condo was a great fit for your family and that the kitchen had everything you needed for your stay. We apologize for the cleanliness issues you encountered, as that is certainly not the standard we strive for. We’ll be sure to follow up with our cleaning crew to ensure everything is thoroughly cleaned and checked before future guests arrive. We’re happy to hear your kids enjoyed the heated pool, and we hope to welcome you back for another stay in the future!

Top Notch Accommodations

The property was top notch. Accommodations were clean, inviting & the decor is beautiful. The beds were comfortable & the condo offered all the comforts of home. Lots to do in the area & close proximity to grocery & shopping. The only drawback was the traffic & the wait for evening dining on AMI but we stayed during spring break, the busiest time of the year. The restaurant on the property, Floriday’s, was great though. We loved relaxing in the screened in porch both mornings & evenings. The property owners have thought of everything. Thank you for sharing your home away from home with us. Highly recommend!

Nice property

The condo was excellent! The listing shows water views, however our condo only had the view of the pool. The rules stated that the pool closed at 9:00pm, but our key fob didn’t open the gates after 7:00pm our little boy was very disappointed. There are no supplies (garbage bags, toilet paper, paper towels) bring your own!! The checkout list states to start a load of sheets, however there is no laundry detergent so make sure you have at least enough left for one last load before you leave. TVs are smart TV you will need your own streaming service. The price was a little high considering no welcome basket or essentials.
Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2021
Response from VrboOwner on 9 September 2023
Hi Sindy, Thank you for leaving your review. Overall I do hope you and your family enjoyed your stay. I do however think this is inaccurate. The listing title says this overlooks the pool and has no pictures showing any different kind of view. The key fobs work from dawn to dusk. The pool is run by the HOA and we have no control over how long they leave it opened. When we did speak the next day you said the Fobs were working fine when we offered to come out. In our terms and conditions and our arrival instructions, we have listed our starter pack of everything that is left in the house for your use. We do not supply the whole stay. The TVs do have our local spectrum cable options. However, we do have smart TVs in the condo for you to be able to log in to your own streaming services.

Huge, gorgeous condo

Castaways is absolutely lovely. Everything was in perfect condition, beds were comfortable, entry with access code was easy. We didn't ever cook there, but the kitchen is certainly well equipped. The pool at the property is wonderful. It is very close to beautiful Anna Maria Island. There are only two caveats I might mention. For one thing, the bottom ledge of the door to the patio is unusually high. I almost tripped the first time I went out. Second (and I'm sure this depends on the time you are there) traffic and parking on Anna Maria are insane at Spring Break time. It took us almost half an hour to find parking for the beach and for breakfast. If you plan to spend most of your time in Bradenton and thereabouts, you will be fine. If you want to spend a lot of time on Anna Maria, budget plenty of time to drive and park on the island. I am told there is something called the "Monkey Bus" that will come and pick you up and that might be worth trying. Even a taxi or uber would be better than trying to drive and park there. Please note: This is in no way a criticism of the condo, but rather something to keep in mind if you plan to stay there in the Spring.

Rule Book

Beautiful home with lots of throw pillows. Approx 8 on the bed, 6 on each couch inside and outside. Bed was comfortable, couches not so comfortable with all those pillows. Where do you put pillows when not in use? Min supplies, no shampoo, body soap, plastic wrap, zip lock etc. For 5 night stay - Given Only 1 trash bag , I roll paper towels, 1 sponge , 2 dishwasher tablets, ( silverware in the drawer was dirty and had to be rewashed ) 2 very small bars of soap . The rule book is quite extensive and intimidating. We had to catch an early flight, but as per the rule book, we had to strip the bed and put sheets in the washer and start ( they sat from 4am- 10am?) clean out the refrigerator, start the dishwasher, take out the trash to the compactor ( which is not very close to the building). We had to put back everything that was moved ( pillows) or face a charge? Rule book says turn off all lights , but lights were on when we arrived. Set thermostat at 76, but when we arrived it was set at 73. We did not use the pool area due to the lounge furniture being stained/ dirty and unappealing to sit on. All this and for the price we paid, I will look elsewhere next time .

Hi Patricia, Thank you for your review. Our arrival instructions disclose the starter items we provide. I apologize if you overlooked this information but most guests understand this is not a hotel experience and bring their own toiletries. Often times our homes take on a life of their own and trash bags etc. remain in the home. We appreciate the feedback regarding the pool area however this is managed by the HOA. I do apologize that it wasn't up to standards and we will pass this feedback onto the HOA. Most people enjoy the plushness of this condo but again we apologize that the number of pillows caused you concern. Our pictures are accurate and you can see the pillows and decor inside all of the pictures. We don't charge for pillows not being put back but more so furniture items being moved into different rooms and having to have multiple people help move things back. We have standard check-out instructions and will turn the AC and leave some lights on for your arrival to give it a more comfortable feeling. Thank you for your feedback and we sincerely hope you have a different experience the next time you vacation to the area.

Nice property at an excellent location

Overall very pleased with the property. It is new, so no worries about it showing wear or being less than pictured. The screened in area overlooking the pool was fantastic. The entire condo was very comfortable, but especially that patio. Minor glitches during the process of agree to rent - struggled getting emails with needed paperwork. This was a system issue, not intentional by the property management, and something they worked to fix. Small issue with checkin where the cleaning service did not leave us keys for use on the property. This delayed us a little, but again the property manager quickly fixed. I don’t know, but I’m guessing these are things that they are figuring out and will make better as the property gets rented more.

Hi Pete, Thank you so much for your review. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay! We did get a new system and our emails are successfully going out to everyone without any problems. We do apologize that the key was not left out but this is something that is now checked by our property manager to ensure that it won't be missed again. Having a new rental has some learning curves but I think we got them all figured out now :)
