A blast in Bradenton

My family of 5 stayed in Cortez Chic. The house was perfect for our stay in terms of both size and amenities. The bedrooms were perfect. The movie theatre was loved by the kids (and Mom and Dad for March madness). The pool was heated which was amazing, since the gulf was still a bit chilly. 5 out of 5 stars. Cant wait to go back.

Great home with pool

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home accommodated our family perfectly. The pool was fantastic as the weather on the beach was windy and chilly. The pond with all the birds was a welcome surprise. The home is located near so many conveniences. Thanks for having us.

Avoid this place & company at all costs

Upon arrival we immediately noticed a strong offensive odor similar to cat urine or mold. The kids swam while we cleaned the bathrooms where it was strongest. We opened windows in the adjoining bedroom, kitchen, sliding door and turned on all the fans in the house and left for a bit. Within an hour being back, I (5mths pregnant), my husband, & 3 kids 5/3/2 had immediate severe respiratory responses to being in this house . Watery eyes, coughing, sneezing, wheezing. Anchor Down was contacted that night & again at 9am after a night of all of us sleeping on the “theater” room couch with a box fan blowing air back into the house & all windows open, a huge safety concern with 3 small kids. Upon inspection, I was condescendingly told that the house smelled clean & of diffusers (only in bathrooms to mask the smell) and that I was probably more sensitive to smell being pregnant...which doesn’t explain my kids or husband reacting with no respiratory history. The smell was noticeable even walking back in from bringing our stuff to the car. I was afraid whatever the smell or substance was would get in/on our belongings so we never brought our stuff past the livingroom and kept what we could in the car. We left after less than 24hrs despite having 4 nights booked & were told it would not be refunded due to their policy & the homeowners. We are out a lot of money but refused to risk our children’s health, something Anchor Down doesn’t seem to be too concerned with.Avoid this house & AD!

Enjoyed it!!

Very clean, with the exception of the bed linens- not sure if it was due to lack of air movement prior to arriving but the bed linens smelled - as my daughter put it- like “a man”…all but the one room linens had a stench. Also/ there were a total of 3 cooking pans. The mgt co checked in and when I told them, they very quickly delivered more sheets, comforters and new pans. So beyond having to remake 5 beds, it was an easy stay! I would definitely rebook,

Was a nice place. No complaints about the property. Just some communication issues in the beginning only. There were so many ways to reach out that i was unclear on the best way to communicate.

Family get-away

We are a family of 6 and this property worked great for us! The pool and movie room were a big hit. I love being able to pack less having a washer and dryer. Also having a fridge, freezer, stove and dishwasher we were able to cook at the house and save some time and money. The kids loved being able to swim or watch a movie while we prepared meals. Would definitely stay here again!

Chill place

The property management group for this property was top notch. They were very quick in communicating with me and even got a grill for us since there wasn’t one there. The house is nice and the heated pool was nice. The house is in a neighborhood and the houses are very close together. The pool is not private as the neighbor was right there looking whenever they were outside. Also it is so minor but the pillow cases on the king bed did not fit and would come off at night.
