Escape to this charming cottage in picturesque Bradenton Beach. Nestled within a tree grove, the cottage features 2 bedrooms. Five min walk to Bridge Steet and free trolley servicing the entire island.

About the host
Hosted by Lorraine
We love old Florida which AMI features perhaps more than anywhere else. We bought two cottages, fixed them up to keep that charm on going. We decided to rent one out, now we rent both. We certainly appreciate when our guests comment about the old FL experience.
Why they chose this property
Some of that old rustic beach town ambiance has been preserved here.
What makes this property unique
The trees are the reason we bought the cottages. If the best thing about the sun is the shade, we have the best of both worlds right here. Enjoy lunch at the picnic table in the shade while the sun is baking every place else. If sun tone is your thing, just step out of the shade and over to the beach and have a dip in the biggest swimming pool around, the gulf. Or enjoy a game of pickleball right across the street.
