About this house rental
3BR · 2BA · Sleeps 6 · 170 Steps to Beach · Private Heated Pool · Outdoor Shower · Large Deck · Elevated Position · Tropical Landscaping · 3-Car Parking
Sail Away Cottage was built in 1920 — one of the oldest homes on Anna Maria Island — and moved to its current location in Bradenton Beach in the 1980s. The bones and character of a century-old beach cottage are intact. The island-themed updates are throughout. From the elevated position, you can hear the Gulf waves without seeing the water directly — and on a clear day, there's even a peek of the Gulf from the right angle.
One hundred and seventy steps to the sandy beach. That's the walk from the front door to the sand — specific enough to plan around, short enough to make spontaneous beach trips genuinely easy.
The private backyard is the outdoor living space. A heated pool sits in the center, framed by new tropical landscaping that screens the yard from the street. A large deck wraps the pool area — the right setup for morning coffee, afternoon sun, and evening cookouts. An outdoor shower handles post-beach cleanup before coming inside.
Three bedrooms sleep six. Two bedrooms have queen beds. The third bedroom has two twin beds. Two full bathrooms throughout. Flat-screen TVs in all bedrooms and the living room. High-speed WiFi included.
Three-car parking is included — generous for a Bradenton Beach property of this size.
Sail Away Cottage requires a one-week minimum stay. Not pet-friendly.
*Final payments are due 60 days prior to arrival payable by personal check or Echeck (which will incur a $1.00 processing fee) we do take
credit cards for final payment with a 3% fee on the balance due

We spent a week at this lovely home on the island and enjoyed every minute of it. The house is comfortable and nicely furnished. Communication, check in and check out was seamless.The location is fantastic, the beach is directly across the street. Highly recommend!

The home on the inside is very nice - beds are comfy - close to everything we wanted to do - groceries- restaurants- beach - we had a very enjoyable stay !! The deck does need some very much needed repair - the pool needed some attention the day we got there - it was not clean and we were told the pool was tended to twice a week - on Fridays and Wednesday - we got there on a Saturday and it did not have any chlorine in it - and we spent 2 hours cleaning it and filling it to where it needed to be to pump water - the filter was full of leaves - the pool guy did come on Wednesday and did fill it with chlorine - much better - it was a great time just laying back and enjoying the October weather !!! We will be back!!!

House was super clean.. Right next to the beach with public access and in walking distance of pretty much anything... Had a great time... The back deck could use a little work but other than that we had a great time.
