Cottage vacation rentals in Bradenton

Everything was LOVELY! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed, much appreciated! The home was super clean and peaceful. The pool was warm and clean ... the shower outside was amazing! Our stay was truly amazing and peaceful ... a home away from home.

The cottage was immaculately clean and comfortable. It was stocked with everything you would need such as kitchen necessities, toiletries, extra towels and beach items. The pool was beautiful and even lit up at night. It is a three minute walk to the beach and some of the bars and restaurants. It is a very quiet neighborhood. The host was extremely nice and responsive with everything. We would stay there again. And I loved the free library out front. I left a book in there ☺️If you are thinking about renting this cottage, you definitely should, you won't be disappointed.

John’s place was great! Walking distance to the pool and beach! We really enjoyed our time! Thanks John!

We loved staying here and it was the perfect space for two couples! The house was very clean and beautifully decorated, felt cozy and the pool area was a huge plus. It’s secluded and feels like your own little resort. Definitely would recommend!

Absolutely perfect! Lori is so kind and thoughtful. The house was perfect for my 4 yo Son and I. Walkable to beach &pool (beach supplies provided by the host were fabulous!) A yard so my son could play outside while I was BBQing dinner. An absolutely perfect holiday made even better with this house and gracious host. Lori allowed us to drop our bags early so we could go and explore the first day and was very flexible with our departure. I know that’s not always possible when juggling guests but I really appreciated that she went above and beyond to make our holiday perfect.

It was just what we were looking for and was just perfect for our visit. Not too much space, but still spacious. It had the privacy we wanted but still so close to everything without the cost of a gigantic place. And beautifully decorated. Felt all new. Pool was fantastic. And so close to the beach without the price of being on the water.

We arrived at night days late due to flight cancellations from home weather. Ashley and Josh were very understanding and welcoming. They were responsive and kind throughout our stay. Their daughter showed our kids around the property and shared her toys, making everyone feel welcome. The back house was comfortable, clean, and well stocked. The area is beautiful and we felt very safe with our small children. We enjoyed walks to feed the cows, playing with the dogs, finding frogs, watching lizard play, listening to birds, dipping out feet in the pool, and collecting eggs from the chickens. The location was convenient for getting to many locations in and around Tampa.

I had an amazing stay at this Airbnb in Siesta Key! The place was super clean, cozy, and just a short walk from the beach. The host was very responsive and made check-in a breeze. Loved the little touches like beach chairs and towels provided. Perfect spot for a relaxing getaway—would definitely stay her again

I’ve found my new favorite staycation spot and where I will enthusiastically recommend to friends and family visiting the area. The space was thoughtfully designed, clean, and comfortable. I will miss my morning coffee on the patio amongst all the plants and birds, my daily work sessions in the small quiet office, and the evening dips in the hot tub. Thanks for your thoughtfulness in creating this space!

Hosts was accommodating and quick to respond. Nice, quiet, hidden, place to kick back and relax after a long day!

Craig was an amazing host - extremely accommodating, helpful and proactive! As for Kiwi Cottage, it was everything our family could ask for and more. The kids loved the hot tub and pool, while all of the restaurants and beaches were a short distance away (highly recommend renting the golf cart!). Such an amazing vacation. We can’t wait to return!

Great stay for our family! The home is very clean and decorated with a beachy, fun vibe! Great bathroom, comfy beds and lots of places to hang out! The dryer was very helpful with wet towels and beach gear was great. Our favorite part of the home was the backyard. The plunge pool was so fun and we loved the game room and golf. Private yard and we enjoyed the birds over coffee each morning! Recommend for any family!

Anna was extremely helpful and accommodating for our last-minute trip with the kids. Her place was super cute and very clean and well kept and we would be happy to recommend it to friends and family or return ourselves. Thank you so much, Anna!

Ame is a wonderful host! This is the cutest little house, stocked with everything you might need for a stay in sunny Florida! Clean as a whistle, too. Location was perfect, groceries, the beach, pizza and shopping all close by.

Great private stay a block from the beach and two blocks from the village. The area is very walkable for things to do and eat. If you’re looking for a honeymoon, anniversary or getaway spot this is perfect! And the hot tub is a nice touch.

We loved this rental. My 5 year old daughter spent so much time in the pool - it’s for kids! The beach was just a short walk away and there are many good restaurants nearby. Madeline was a great host! Would definitely stay here again!

Place and location were great! And host was super communicative. It is small but that is expected based on the listing information. Would definitely go back!

What a cozy, comfortable and quaint little house right by the beach! The house was well appointed with all the initial essentials & was very clean. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were very comfortable (we actually slept like we were at home, a rarity!). Communication was flawless and the host was accommodating at check-in which we really appreciated. Located steps from the beach, it was the perfect amount of house for our family of four. Lots of space for our things and easy to use laundry facilities were helpful. Beautifully landscaped back yard and deck, with clean outdoor furniture and bbq, as well as beach accoutrements (chairs, wagon, inflatables) the host definitely takes pride in their rental. Would recommend and will definitely be back! Thank you for a great little vacation.

I only stayed a short few nights, but the place was wonderful. The day of my check-in Lori had contacted me to let me know I could check-in early if I pleased, which was very helpful to me. She had many suggestions on things to do in the area with all the information you would need. I loved just how close it was to the beach and some wonderful restaurants, all only a short walk away. The place was very clean and had everything I needed. Can’t say enough great things about it, it’s not surprising to see it’s booked up far in advance!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Canopy Cottage. This was our second year staying and loved it even more. Jami is an excellent host. We loved being close to the Legacy Trail to ride bikes and the sort drive to Siesta Key Beach! Would definitely stay again.

Grouper was a great cottage for a relaxing girls mini vaca! Walked over the bridge in the am for exercise, spent the day on the beach, afternoons drinking wine on the covered dock, and strolled to local restaurants for fresh fish dinners!! Perfect!!

Another 5 star stay at Dougs place The location is close to highway. The house is clean and well maintained and easy to find. Doug is a Great host

Amazing hosts! Very clear and prompt communication. The house had everything we needed and additional items were provided to keep our baby comfortable. I was so excited they provided beach supplies and we put it all to use!

Great little house so close to everything. Two blocks to TD Bank Stadium and four blocks to shopping and restaurants. Literally a nine minute walk to choose from all the downtown restaurants. Serene was a great host who was very accommodating. We had a curve ball thrown at our schedule and Serene rolled with it and went the extra mile. Thanks, Serene.
