This property is perfect for enjoying a relaxing stay, truly a home away from home. Candy was incredibly kind, and everything was very organized with clear instructions from the beginning. The apartment was spotless, beautifully decorated, and very cozy. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything you could possibly need.The location is excellent, very close to Anna Maria Island as well as supermarkets and other conveniences.My family and I truly enjoyed our stay. Thank you, Candy, for being such a wonderful host! We hope to return soon.

Quietness

My friend and I enjoyed a two week stay here and it was very accomodating with all our needs; even a laundry room. The decor was quite interesting with portraits and colorful. It's NOT your usual run of the mill, boring place. We highly recommend this location and address as it's close to Bradenton Beach and Anna Marie Island. And we especially loved the quietness of this location! Thank you Doug and Candy!

The unit was very clean, and stocked well for our stay. We loved the vibe of the home, the decor, wall hanging, and rug with very cool. The unit is second floor, noisy garage door that opens and closes below, in a workshop. The view from the balcony was not what we expected, looking out to trailers. Our overall stay was good! Very cozy

I would live here if i would.

I can't rate this appartment enough, it was the most beautiful, quirky awesome beach condo! The beds where super comfy, the kitchen was really well stocked and the place was immaculate. Plus access to a grill and smoker ( which made me super happy). The appartment is only a short hop to AMI, or bradenton and easy acces to Cortez. Doug and Candy (the owners) live downstairs and where super friendly with recomendations and places to visit. I can assure you. We will be coming back.

Boat parking can be tricky and I wouldn't recommend launching from this marina with a jet boat. Too grassy and creates issues. Other than that the place was nice and as expected. Thank you!

Great Getaway!

We recently spent 2 weeks at Kapok. The house was very comfy, clean, well equipped for cooking, centrally located to places we wanted to visit, and in a very quiet neighborhood. Doug and Candy were there for us if we had any questions or needed anything.
