Very clean, comfortable bed, the kayaks were fun and easy to use, we spent a whole at out on them. The location was amazing! You can walk to so many places, pizza, restaurants, shops, ice cream, bait shops and more. The parking is a little tricky, but very manageable with a small car.
Great location, you’re only steps away from all that happens on Bridge Street. A quick walk to the beach, the provided wagon makes it a breeze. We love that our dog could be with us. The property was clean and well stocked with the necessities. The communication with the owner was perfect.
Centrally located; perfect location if you want to be by the action. We rented golf cart; realistically not needed. Everything is walking distance. House exactly like shown in pics. Only one small issue, musty odor; which I know is expected. Otherwise don’t hesitate booking this location. Parking limited. Agi Agens

Rex did an excellent job of communicating with us throughout the entire trip. The property was clean and well maintained and instructions were clear and conscise. The views of the bay are magnificent and the location is difficult to top. A wonderful time was had at a wonderful place. I would recommend and I would stay again.
Great place, so convenient and clean! Would stay again. Beach chairs and wagon were a great help to make our trip enjoyable, super clean. There are two bedrooms with comfy beds and a couch that my son said was comfortable as a queen pullout.

Loved this quaint little gem. I would definitely stay here again. Very quiet and laid back atmosphere. Used the Trolley to travel back and forth on the island. Great beaches, restaurants and bars.
Great location to bridge street and activitites, quiet, and peacefull. Moring time coffee at Back Alley Treasures is a thing. Walk on the pier or around the beautiful bridge street area
What an incredible stay!! 5 stars all around! From location, clean and beautifully decorated place, friendly owners, and easy check in/check out, we will definitely return! My 18 year old son loves to fish non stop when we visit here, so being right next to the pier was a huge reason we couldn’t wait to surprise him with this stay. He catches flounder, snook, tarpon, trout, etc on the AMOB pier. The location is also just a quick walk to the beach, as well as restaurants and shopping. Every time we visit we love going to Island Time for dinner and drinks with the live bands, but we got to try the Bamboo Island Bar for dinner and it was DELICIOUS!we can’t wait to return, and will lost definitely stay at this place again or one of Rex’s other properties!
Rex was very attentive and responsive to our needs. The house was cllean, the ..bed comfortable, and a perfect location to walk and get a frozen Daquiri. I would recommend the house for a trip to Brademton anytime. Unfortunately we sodnt get to use the pool as it was a little cool outside but it looked beautifull. We also Saw this offsprey catch a fisj and eat it right next to us and that was pretty unique Lots of birds,dolphin, and we even saw a fanily of racoons.
The Bridge Street house is lovely! The location is perfect as it is walkable to all that Bradenton Beach has to offer and a short walk to the trolley stop to the rest of AMI! The view watching boats in the morning is amazing as well as a short after dinner walk to watch the sunset. Everything is provided in the home for a “must come again” stay!

To sum up our stay at Bridge Street Pier Beach House, Anna Maria Island, FLA -
We had been to Anna Maria Island twice prior. This time, we chose this place to stay based on location, walkability, convenience & fishing, in no special order, and it did not disappoint. Nothing ever goes perfect, but the owner was always available, responsive and a true professional. We will be returning to this, and/or one of his other properties in the future.
This location is wonderful. It’s close to Bridge Street with plenty of food, music and shopping. Just a couple blocks from the beach. We loved being able to watch the boats go by in the bay. The only issue was actually trying to get into the home but contacted owner and he walked us through to get in. Also, one of the bedrooms had no air conditioning just a fan and was a little warm.
The house was nice & the host was very timely with answers when I had questions & gave very thorough instructions on everything in the house, on the area & getting around, which was very appreciated. But it was still alittle confusing (probably just us) trying to actually drive up the lane to the house. We needed to ignore our gps at the end of the road & not turn but just go a few feet more to the very end, like you’re almost going to go off of the sea wall then turn down right in front of it & the house is down at the very end. It seems very tight between the sea wall & other cottages but we had room with our Chevy Impala to get thru, park & unload right in front of the place. Then we were able to back up & turned around in the neighboring drive to go out forward, like the host stated. Everything was clean & comfortable & luckily they provided a few heaters because there wasn’t a furnace & 2 of the 3 nights we were there the temp dropped way down & it was freezing. Also it was close to so much & if it hadn’t been so cold we could’ve walk a lot. We would definitely stay there again!
When we arrived several homes at the entrance were heavily damaged by the Hurricanes. We were just checking out the location. Wow ! What damage! The cleaning crew was there so we went to one of the Many local businesses for lunch and shopping! We were so relieved to find our VRBO is exceptionally good shape! We had a blast!! Clean and very roomy! Already checking our schedule and see if we can go back!!
