About this property

Serenity Shores

Listen to the waves.

Enjoy a partial gulf view from the front balcony of Serenity Shores, our top floor condominium. We keep our home updated with firm beds and quality furniture to make you feel right at home. 

Feels like a real home. Not a vacation rental. 

Our home has balconies on both gulf and bay side, providing a healthy ocean breeze inside the residence. The tall 9 foot ceilings make our residence feel spacious and modern. 



We keep it updated.

Our home is exceptionally well-maintained and clean - We stay several weeks a year ourselves, and you will note it feels much more like a nice home instead of a typical rental property. 

We have fresh premium flooring throughout, with stainless appliances, granite counters, and modern amenities including a dedicated private elevator. Enjoy beautiful top-floor views with no stairs to climb! The living room has a beautiful open layout, with expansive west-facing windows.

We have a 65" television in the living area, and a 50" in the master bedroom. All our furniture was selected to make the home feel luxurious and welcoming for our guests.

About the rooms:

Master Suite: The luxurious master suite has a private balcony facing the bay side of the island, and has a luxurious pillowtop king bed with our own version of a "pillow menu". The master bath has a huge tiled shower, soaking tub, and double vanity. 

Second Bedroom: The second bedroom has a small office area, complete with desk, monitor, office chair, and even keyboard/mouse. This same bedroom has bunk beds (twin on top/full on bottom). 

Third Bedroom: The third bedroom has a queen bed, complete with new mattress and a large closet. 

Second Bath: The hallway bathroom has a luxurious tiled shower with a special doorless layout. Our guests love it! 

Your own garage.

Enjoy your own PRIVATE, locked garage stall throughout your stay. We have two parking spots available - One inside the garage and one on the driveway directly in front of the garage. 

Located near the beach and shopping.

This perfect location is just one block to the beach and two blocks from the popular bayfront park, featuring picturesque views of the bay. Here you will also find a picnic area, children's playground, a kayak launch and basketball courts. 

We are only one mile from Bridge Street, which has historic shops, restaurants, and even a family-owned coffee and ice cream shops. Bridge Street also has fun attractions (like mini golf) for the family. 

Communication.

Upon check-in, we will provide a phone number that you can text or call anytime. We also respond to messages on the booking platform.

We had a wonderful stay at this house! The location is perfect, just a short walk to the beach, which made it easy to enjoy the ocean every day. The house is spacious, beautifully decorated, and fully equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. One of the highlights was the elevator, which was extremely helpful since we were traveling with three elderly family members. The host replied quickly and was very helpful.Highly recommend this place for families looking for comfort, accessibility, and a great beach getaway!

Immaculate home with a view

We had such a glorious time in this beautiful home just a block from pristine powdery white sands of Bradenton Beach. The home was exactly as described; clean, comfortable, well-stocked & a perfect home away from home! We enjoyed hours on the front porch looking at the gulf & watching people passing by.

Perfect place and location

We had the perfect week. Bryce was the perfect host, very prompt to our needs. The place was perfect and in the perfect location. The only thing I’d love to have a pool. Also if you’re short, you will need help getting the laundry out is the washing machine. Too deep for short people, lol. Thanks for a great stay!

It was amazing. From the moment you pull up to this condo you know you’re in for a treat. Communication was top notch and provided so we as the guest felt like this was our home. Detailed instructions on entry into the house, garage, and even in the elevator. I have never wanted an elevator so much in my home until experiencing what it’s like to have one at your fingertips.Then entering the condo you feel the cool refreshing air conditioning already on and awaiting your arrival. The condo is well laid out and spacious. The kitchen is cozy and functional, the beds comfortable, the master shower is an experience in itself.I would highly recommend this condo for your vacationing needs.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer and Bryce B.

Host profile image
We visited Anna Maria Island during the 2020 pandemic, and simply fell in love with the island. In fact, we were counting the days until we returned to this one-of-a-kind piece of paradise. We eventually decided to purchase a home to allow us longer stays on the island!

Why they chose this property

We loved this home because it really feels like a luxury home. Unlike a typical rental property, this residence feels warm and inviting. It is super comfortable, and easy to live in.

Also, the location is perfect - It's close enough to the beach and Bridge Street, while not being in the midst of the traffic and noise.

What makes this property unique

Our home is on the third floor, so no one is walking above you. And there are no shared walls, so you don't hear noise from neighbors.

Because this residence covers the entire top floor, there are windows on all four sides of the home. We love opening the windows and having a fresh ocean breeze throughout the home! We wake up to a sunrise in the master bedroom balcony, and enjoy the sunset (and partial gulf view) on the front balcony. It is perfect!
