This house was excellent for our group. We enjoyed the pool and outdoor covered patio/cooking area. Host was very responsive when we had a question. Would book this place again if in the area.
Had a wonderful weekend at 200 palms. The house was beautiful, clean and had everything we needed and then some. The back yard is an absolutely gorgeous oasis. This is built for a family stay but we enjoyed it with just the two of us. All the extras that are offered just go above and beyond. My wife extra appreciated the hair straightener, curling iron and the ninja slushie machine. Cortez is absolutely breath taking but the close proximity to Anna Maria island is what sold us and it did not disappoint. I would 100% recommend to anyone wanting to stay in the area as the property and hosts were amazing!
We all really enjoyed the tropical paradise you created at 200 palms. The home was clean and well stocked with all the essentials. We will definitely consider booking again next year for a longer stay as it was conveniently located to the beach, restaurants and stores. Well done!
Absolutely love this place, nice and kind tucked away but two minutes from the beach, the pool and the outdoor grilling area made it totally worth it

About the host
Hosted by Brian & Stacey
Stacey is a high school history teacher and Brian works in corporate finance and we have 4 children from 6 to 14 years old. We love learning more about the world including other people, cultures and history. Family is important to us and we love going on adventures and making memories together.
Why they chose this property
We purchased a place where we could escape from the grind of every day life to relax and make memories with our children near the beach. The tropical vibe, the tree house in a mango tree, and the close distance to the beach remind us that we can relax, turn off our phones, and enjoy the beauty of Florida. And while we love our time here, when we are not here, we would love for this place to give other families a place to escape to and make memories with their own families.
What makes this property unique
Our kids absolutely love the large heated pool surrounded by a small stream and lots of palm trees. The kids enjoy seeing the lizards run around by the stream and around the rest of the backyard. It definitely reminds you that you are in the sunshine state. The kids have made great memories helping pick fresh mangos from the treehouse in the summer.
Away from the house, we love visiting the Cortez beach (only 3 miles away)! We have a wagon, cooler, chairs, beach towels, and a large beach umbrella you can use to have a wonderful day at the beach. Near Cortez beach the kids love to get souvenirs along Bridge Street and we like stopping at the various restaurants nearby with live music at night.
