Bradenton is a
lovely picturesque area on the Gulf Coast of
Florida in between Sarasota and St.Petersburg.
Just 45min drive from Tampa International
Airport. It's an ideal location to rest up and
enjoy the breathtaking Gulf Coast beaches, but
close enough to visit Orlando's theme parks.
Wonderful white sand beaches run for miles with
all the water activities you could wish for. Our
house is 10 minutes drive from beautiful
Bradenton Beach along the Cortez Road and only
15 minutes drive from Holmes Beach, Anna Maria
Island and Longboat Key.
We are also very close
to the Shorewalk complex and world famous Nick
Bollettieri IMG Sports Academy for those wishing
to improve their tennis. There are great
restaurants, bargain shopping at nearby Ellenton
Outlet Mall, many golf courses, a bowling alley,
a cinema, health and beauty salon and gymnasium
all close to our location. Watch the sunrise
over coffee; but be sure to have a cold drink
and your feet in the sand when the sun sets!
For an exciting
vacation adventure or a lifetime of relaxed living, come
see how Bradenton has become increasingly cosmopolitan
in character while retaining its small-town charm. The
City is home to the Village of the Arts, a growing
neighbourhood of renovated cottages just south of
downtown that provides homes, studios and galleries for
dozens of local artists and other small businesses. And
don't forget the new antiques district in east
Bradenton, where shoppers can grab a bite to eat in one
of the area's sandwich shops, then browse for antiques.
Bradenton is a growing
city. More homes are currently being built on a formerly
vacant parcel of land along the Manatee River known as
the Sandpile. Now called Promenade at Riverwalk, this
will be one of the hottest spots in Bradenton with new
condominiums, offices, a hotel and other commercial
opportunities, and it's also the future home of Manatee
Players Riverfront Theater, currently located at the
corner of Old Main Street and Barcarrota Boulevard.
