About this property

Comfy and cozy 1BR downstairs apt with King sized bed, centrally located for fun

This conveniently located, private apt has its own driveway and separate entrance to a beautiful downstairs unit that is a part of a two story home (Upstairs is completely locked off so neither party can enter the other unit, they can be rented together to accommodate larger parties of 8 total). Located easily accessible to the beaches, restaurants, aquarium, zoo, shopping etc. in the Bradenton, Anna Maria, St. Pete and Tampa areas. You will find everything you need to feel at home in this apt.

Living room right off of kitchen and entry area has comfy seating to accommodate you for reading, watching TV, while still being around your loved one that maybe cooking. Kitchen is well stocked with all dishes, pots and pans, utensils, basic spices, etc. It has a microwave convection oven, 2 burner induction cooktop and even a countertop dishwasher, a Reverse Osmosis water filter system and a full size fridge. If anything is needed send a quick text and I can try to provide what is needed. Bedroom, one step down, is located off the kitchen, has a very comfortable King size bed, with nightstands, lamps and a full size dresser and large Roku TV for those lazy evenings of watching TV in bed. Located in the back of apt so it's quiet and cool for a good nights sleep. Bathroom has full size walk in shower with body wash and shampoo for your stay. Laundry is shared with us and located in the garage (next to the bedroom) and available for stays of a week or longer.

Parking in your separate private shell drive with privacy fence at the entry, gives you a nice feeling of separation from the rest of the house and guests. Courtyard with personal seating area outside your entry with table and 2 chairs, gives a nice serene atmosphere to sip on morning coffee or enjoy a warm balmy afternoon in privacy. We have a gas griddle/Blackstone you may use in your little courtyard area.

Close to major airports:
SRQ-Sarasota/Bradenton 20-30 minutes
PIE-Clearwater/St. Pete 40-50 minutes
TPA-Tampa 45-60 minutes
Times dependent on time of day

Also close attractions include many beaches 25-50 minutes away, Anna Maria Island has Holmes Beach, Coquina, Bradenton Beach and south we have Longboat Key, Lido Key, and Siesta Key in Sarasota. St Pete and Clearwater Beaches, Madeira, Indian Rocks are just over the Skyway Bridge, etc. So many stretches of white powdery sandy beaches, you can try a different beach each day if you choose.
Also try some of our other attractions:
*Emerson Point Preserve
*Robinson Preserve
*Fort Desoto Park
*Riverwalk on the Manatee River
*Ellenton Outlet Mall
*Anderson Race Park
*Ringling Museum
*St Pete Pier
*Dali Museum
*Florida Aquarium
*Busch Gardens
*Big Cat Habitat
*Tree Umph
*Vertical Ventures
and so much more............ and of course restaurants of any cuisine and culture you desire. From fancy upscale venues to waterfront dining, roof top dining to casual take out and of course our breweries if you want to try some of our local brews.

We know you'll have a great time here!

Stay in Palmetto

It is fortunate that the Property Manager was very kind and prompt at responding to a couple of issues that came up. If that hadn't been the case, we may not have stayed there. The unit was very good, but toilet problems were very disruptive. A plumber was called (quickly) to fix, which he did do after the 2nd call. We weren't thrilled with the Palmetto/Bradenton area.

Clean & Cozy!

I have stayed at quite a few places in the area as I come down regularly for work. This has been by far the cleanest, nicest place I have stayed. Communication with the property manager was amazing. She was so quick to respond to any questions. The place had everything you could have needed. Will absolutely stay again anytime the property is available when I come back!

Palmetto for 2

Jennifer & Chris are about as good as it gets when you are talking ‘HOSTS’. Their downstairs apartment is perfect for 2 travelers, it’s squeaky clean, a perfect size, and makes you feel at home. You really don’t want for anything since they have given every detail ‘thought’ as though they were the guest staying there. Kudos you two, we are honored to have made your acquaintance.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Ackerland

Host profile image
I am a native Floridian, born and raised in Sarasota, FL. We've been married 34+ years and moved up to the Palmetto area to escape the craziness of Sarasota, It is a calmer and a more quaint town here. We love the central location. We have a son who lives in NY with his wife and we love to visit. Our vacation rentals aid in our volunteer construction and ministry we engage in. Being able to work less secularly and able to be available for others gives us much joy. I also know ASL and interpret in the deaf community. We have a happy and fulfilling life.

Why they chose this property

Our neighborhood is generally quiet, a working class family neighborhood brings a feel of community, you'll see people out walking in the evenings and on their golf carts. You'll get a nice smile and a wave even though they don't know you. We look out for each other. It's also a boating community setting on Terra Ceia Bay. A nice walk in the evenings will most of the time bring a beautiful sunset that lights up the sky. A different show every night.

What makes this property unique

Our property consists of a two story Key West style house. That means upstairs is a complete home by itself. Downstairs is our apt that we also started to recently rent out when we are gone. It's completely separate, you may hear some commotion upstairs but no more than a regular downstairs apt. We've enjoyed living here for over 5 years and find it very cozy yet feels spacious. Since we are gone a lot in our RV, we stay in that over the winter months and when home, we're parked on the far other side of the property in our cozy little home on wheels. It's easier than moving in and out of it all season and we have our quiet little area that's private as well.
