About this property

Seaside Sanctuary - 10 min to the beach, heated pool, water view, billiards

Welcome to Seaside Sanctuary, a beautiful family home that was renovated to a high standard in 2025 with great attention to detail, tastefully furnished and well equipped.

Located in desirable Northwest Bradenton, at the end of a cul-de-sac, this over 2,700 SF home offers 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and plenty of space for all. It won't be difficult or take long for you to fall in love with your vacation home.

Wood floors, lots of natural light entering through the many glass sliding doors, a very large and well-equipped kitchen with breakfast bar, double ovens, stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, an adjoining dining room with ample seating for everyone, a pool table, a Florida room, lots of beach equipment and numerous other details make this home unique.

The large, open and very cozy living room area with large smart TV offers plenty of space for the family.

Everything has been thought of when equipping the kitchen, so you can easily conjure up a large American breakfast, sandwiches for the beach, a frozen cocktail or a multi-course meal for your loved ones.

Directly behind the kitchen is an air-conditioned Florida room with a small dining area and a fantastic view of the lake in front - ideal for a cup of tea or a glass of wine.

You might even spot a few turtles, which can often be observed from here. You also have direct access to the pool area from the Florida Room.

Another separate room in the living area also opens onto the pool and the lake with a huge sliding glass door. Here you can play a game of billiards or devote yourself to your vacation book in the comfortable reading chair.

Seaside Sanctuary can accommodate up to 6 adults and 2 children. Enter the master bedroom through a double wide door and feel right at home on a king-size bed. Unpack your clothing in a walk-in closet and setup your favorite book in the cozy reading corner for later. A large sliding glass door gives you direct access to the terrace and pool. The en-suite bathroom awaits you with a spacious walk-in shower and two sinks.

The bedroom next door is furnished with a single bed and an additional pull-out bed, ideal in location within the home to keep an eye on little kids at night. If you do need to get some work done while on vacation, with a desk is ideal for an office as well.

The third and fourth bedrooms offer a king-size and queen-size bed and share a hallway bathroom with walk-in shower.

Of course, all bed linen as well as bath and beach towels are made available during your stay.

The oversized, deep saltwater pool with a pebble-tech finish is surrounded by travertine tiles and a wooden deck. From here you will have a breathtaking view of the lake and its wildlife.

If sunbathing appeals to you more than splashing around in the pool, you can make yourself comfortable on the sun loungers provided. Cool off after a long day under the large tiki hat (fans under the roof and illuminated), relax in the hammock or use the gas barbecue for your own personal barbecue.

Just a few minutes from your vacation home, you will find numerous shopping opportunities, excellent restaurants and typical American nightlife in the center of Bradenton, which is known for its thriving art and culture scene.

Enjoy your well-deserved vacation in "Seaside Sanctuary" - your personal retreat by the lake and yet only a few minutes away from the beach.

Large Home; Well Appt
We had a very nice stay at this property. It is large and spacious. Kitchen has pretty much everything you need. Beds are comfy and the pool is big! There’s a Target and Publix very close by. Target is cheaper for groceries. We had an infant with us and property provided a pack and play and a high chair.

Beautiful Home!
The house is beautiful and had everything we needed for our stay. The location was perfect. This home is just a short, easy drive away from the beaches, grocery stores, and restaurants. The neighborhood is quiet and well cared for. The kids enjoyed playing pool as well as playing IN the pool! We had a great vacation here!

Family vacay at Seaside Sanctuary
House was clean and was as good as pictured online. Pool was warm and tiki hut was perfect to eat dinners under each night. It is a 4 bedroom, but if you have younger children, there are 2 bedrooms on opposite sides of the house. You will need to get extra toilet paper as they only provide one roll and there was no salt & pepper. When you are heading to the beach, you will need to leave by 9:30am to avoid the heavy traffic getting on the island. They provide beach chairs, towels, toys, umbrella, and cooler which was really awesome! We would definitely stay at this property again.

Amazing!
This was a great place to stay for our family of 8. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet. The area has many things to do in a short distance. This is by far the cleanest house we have ever rented through VRBO. The pool and outdoor seating was amazing and enjoyed by all of our family.

Great Stay!
We loved the property. The pool and layout of the home is perfect for a family with swimmers. We loved the location and GREAT attractions near by: Robinson Preserve was one of our absolute favorites for walking, fishing and kayaking, everything AMI has to offer and on days were wanted to stay in - the pool, outdoor living space and pool table kept everyone happy.

Nice place... would stay again ....
It is a nice home. If it were mine, I would put a regular bed in the fourth room. We had to go buy a blow-up mattress for the fourth couple. The pool was nice, not heated to 84 degrees like I was told. It was 76 degrees, we scuba dive, I put two of our computers in the pool, they both read 76 degrees, but we were fine with that. Overall, it was nice, we enjoyed our stay.
