Flamingo Cay is a private community right off the coast of one of the most picturesque spots in Florida. This vibrant and eclectic coastline is full of beaches, bright blue waters, lush green forests, and tons of activities for you and your friends to do during your free time. It doesn’t matter if you want to go on vacation with your best friends, extended family, couples, or colleagues, we have a spacious and modern home that will ensure you have the best vacay possible. Check out Casa Palma, a 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom house that can fit you and up to 7 other people. Featuring tons of amenities, outdoor space, ample interior furniture, cozy decorations, and plush bedrooms, we know that you will have the best time chilling out, de-stressing, and relaxing during your upcoming holiday. 

Casa Palma features a private outdoor pool that you can use any time, day or night. Our covered outdoor pool is ideal for using in the morning as you watch the sun come up over the water. You can head out here in the afternoon to sit on the plush couch, prop your feet up on the coffee table, and read a book to relax and decompress from a stressful week of work. Or head out here in the evening on a rare rainy day and swim a few laps — the glass covering makes it possible for you to swim in any weather conditions! 

Once you work up an appetite swimming and laying in the pool, head to the kitchen. You will be blown away by the modern stainless steel appliances, large granite countertop, granite counter island with high seating, white cabinets and unique lighting fixture. The wooden floor and open floor plan make the kitchen easy to use, functional, and sleek, adding to the aesthetic value of the home. Plus, you can serve your guests appetizers and happy hour drinks as they sit at the high chairs and chat with you about what to do for the upcoming vacation days! 

Serve your meal at the formal dining room table. You can set placemats at the wooden dining room table and chat with your guests, eating a potluck dinner that you made with fresh local seafood in your modern and spacious kitchen. 

Then, head to the living room to sit back and watch some TV or movies before you head out on the town for a night of dancing and having a few drinks. Lie down on the plush couch and turn on your favorite show on the flatscreen TV, prop your feet up on the coffee table and read a book, or play a game of cards with your friends. 

We also love sitting on the top floor in one of the cozy chairs and gazing out at the never-ending birds-eye view of the amazing coastal scenery. This is the best spot to hang out with a cup of coffee and watch the sunrise, sit with a glass of wine and watch the sunset, or escape the hustle and bustle of your vacation to have a few minutes of peaceful solitude. 

Once you decide to explore all that this vibrant area has to offer, there are a few MUST go-to places that are sure to knock your socks off! First, you need to find somewhere great for breakfast. We recommend heading to The Sage Biscuit in Downtown Bradenton to get a filling egg dish, sweet plate, or strong, iced coffee. One of our favorites for a hearty breakfast is the sage biscuit and gravy plate with buttery biscuits, sausage gravy, and a pot of fruit. After breakfast, walk around some of the shops and grab a souvenir to bring back home or grab something for a fancy date night. We love going to The Market Boutique and Bealls to get a flattering outfit that you can wear for the rest of your trip! 

After a morning full of breakfast and shopping, head to one of the nearby beaches to set up an umbrella, go surfing in the bright blue water, or go for a walk along the coastal pathway. We love the outdoor opportunities and watersports that are everywhere in Bradenton Beach. 

Laying on the beach all day and catching good waves can lead to exhaustion — and hunger! Check out a few dinner spots that are perfect for getting mouth watering seafood dishes, local food, and organic produce to keep you healthy and fit all vacation long. We recommend going to Mattison’s Riverwalk Grille. This upscale restaurant is the perfect dinner spot for a nice evening with your friends or family. Try the famous fish and chips to satisfy those evening hunger pangs!  

And the best part? These fun activities and restaurants are just steps away from your very own vacation home! Rent our property from Anchor Down Vacation Rentals to get started today.
