Clean, comfortable two room efficiency. Nice outdoor screened seating area, comfortable rooms with new split heat pumps and easy access to Cortez bridge to Anna Maria
Like the specious living area. Laundry was convenient. But very noisy. Did not like that the code didnt work on the front door. They did not fix in the 6 days we were there. Great location. Beach isnt too far.
Fantastic little spot away from the hustle and bustle of the main roads. Just a 8 minute drive to the beach and incredible food options all over! Would definitely recommend this spot and the smash burger joint was incredible!
We had a great sty at the Grouper. It was clean, close to Anna Maia island and the beach. Very nice amenities. Comfortable, clean bed.We will return!NOTE: toaster doesn’t work and chair under the air conditioner got wet from the dripping a/c. We moved it when we realized it.
I was very pleased with the final results after unfortunately getting double booked . The host was able to get us in their other property. Even though we had to change all our plans. We still ended up having a very comfortable and relaxing time. And was able to check out a little later. Very pleased with how they handled everything!!

Comfortable bed and pleasant cottage overall. Enjoyed morning coffee in the screened room. Love that it’s so close to the beach! Mini-split in kitchen is dripping water badly. Turned it off before we left. Connected to wifi but no internet so not of any use for TV or phones. Too much light at night on the front of the house made it tough to sleep even with all the blinds closed. Thank you!
My partner and I stayed during a recent visit to see family/friends. The place is larger than expected with new appliances and split AC/HEAT elements and a nice little Keurig for those morning coffee drinkers. The neighborhood was quiet and located close both family in Bradenton and Anna Maria Island. Check in was quick and convenient. **Also the sink that most people seem to complain about worked just fine**A couple cups/dishes weren’t washed in the cabinet but wasn’t a problem. Dish soap and sponges were supplied. Other than that the place and bathroom were spotless.Thanks for a great stay
