Steps to IMG Golf Course! AMI| Pool|Spa|Game Room

Welcome to Champion Retreat, by Stayawhilewithus! Aptly named, our home was once owned by the renowned tennis champion, Ivan Lendl. So when staying with us, you can rest assured that you'll have the ultimate 5-star experience.

In addition to the home's luxurious history, you'll be blown away by its incredible location in the heart of Bradenton, Florida. It is nestled within minutes of the world renowned IMG Sports Academy (3.4 miles) and within walking distance to the IMG Academy Golf Club (0.4 miles), 7.6 miles to Bradenton Beach on Anna Maria Island with its crystal blue waters and fine white sands, 7.4 miles to the magnificent Downtown Bradenton area, and so much more.

When staying with us, you'll get to experience Bradenton with all that it has to offer, from great places to shop and dine to its numerous family-friendly activities and nightlife hotspots.

And did we forget? Our home has its own game room, equipped with a Pacman, a foosball table and a shuffleboard. We even have toys and board games to keep the little ones entertained. So in case of a rainy day, you needn't worry about having fun when stuck indoors.

Perfection

The listing was 100% accurate and incredibly nice. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again. The house is very large and laid out perfectly. We had everything we needed in the kitchen to cook for hungry soccer players before and after their games.

Amazing property and owners!

This property is everything and more that I was hoping for! There was ample space so that no one had to be on top of each other which is wonderful when you have a mix of adults, teenagers, and young ones. The kitchen is something from dreams and the pool area was amazing. We would highly recommend to everyone!

Fabulous house with all the amenities

We chose this location for the pool/spa and the space for our family to spread out. The pool was the biggest hit with my teens. It’s in pristine shape and we loved the option to have it heated. This house is laid out for big groups and includes plenty of cookware, dishes, utensils and more. We had some complications with the house instructions but our hosts were prompt and kind and we were able to get them resolved. Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of bedding, including extra blankets and towels. We loved the vintage arcade game, foosball table, and shuffleboard table. All in all, we loved our stay and highly recommend this property and its hosts.
