Amazing house for family vacation
This house was perfect for our family vacation! Plenty of space for our large family gatherings and the beautiful grounds with the pool, volley ball and pickle ball courts were awesome! We loved staying around the house because there was so much to do and it was so comfortable. We did go to the beach one day and it was just a short drive away. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!!

Beautiful Escape
The property was stunning. The outdoors amazing! I wished they had more bathrooms but we made it work. The property manager was very attentive, just be aware not to put the music too loud outdoors cause the neighbor is not friendly at all. Overall, everything was great!

Amazing
Really the only downside to this location is the shower situation. There are three available showers - one connected to the bunk room on the main level, one en suite for the second story master, and one in the pool house. This meant some careful communication about when adults could shower and not wake up napping kids etc. other than that this house is amazing. The living spaces are very large - our group of 17 could easily all eat/prepare meals and play games without feeling cramped. The kids lived in the pool while the adults lived on the pickle ball courts. The beaches of Anna Maria island are only a 15 min drive and were great - but honestly it was hard to leave the home because we were having so much fun there! The host was very responsive to any requests or questions. Just wishing we don’t live so far away and could come back every year.

Five Family Spring Break
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this well-maintained property. The outdoor area with the pool and pickleball court was a draw and we spent the majority of our time in these areas! We were a group of 17 with ten parents and seven kids ranging from 16-20 years old. There was plenty of room for us to spread out and enough beds for everyone. Our only complaint was that there are only three showers total, which required us to plan ahead. The location is ideal for heading to the beach (go by 8:30 am to avoid traffic), shopping, golf, going for walks, and spring training baseball. During our stay, we had questions about the pool filter and Paul was very responsive. Overall, I’d recommend this beautiful property!

Girls Getaway
We were a group of 20 ladies who stayed at Xanadu for 4 nights. There was ample space for our group in the common spaces of the house. The backyard is beautiful and our group spent the majority of our time out there and on the pickleball court. The pool was heated to a very pleasant 85 degree temperature. The pictures of the outdoor spaces do no do it justice. It is even nicer in person! The bathrooms were our groups only challenge with this property. The water pressure in the showers was very low and the hot water seemed to run out quickly. Note that the bathroom with the tub DOES NOT have an installed shower head for showering but does have a handheld shower which was not ideal for showering. Other than the bathrooms the house was an absolute pleasure to stay in. All 20 ladies thought their beds were comfortable and enjoyed the stay. Tons of glasses, flatware, plates, towels, pool towels etc. It is truly set up for large groups! Paul the property manager quickly responded to any of our groups questions about the property.

A Bit of Paradise
The property it's a resort in itself! The outdoor areas are relaxing and a great way to start and end the day. Family members took excursions, enjoyed all amenities, and even had a tournament for ping-pong, foosball, pool, and pickleball. It was a stay filled with wonderful memories for our family. Thank you, Paul!

This is the MOST BEAUTIFUL home I have ever stayed in! You do not need to leave the property at all and still have the beach sand right in your own back yard. 100% recommend! We had 18 people and everyone enjoyed themselves. Thank you to the host who was so very accommodating. It was over and above what we expected.

Incredible Vacation Rental with Endless Comforts and Stunning Ambiance
Our recent stay at this VRBO property was nothing short of incredible. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by a beautiful house that exceeded all our expectations. It truly felt like a luxurious resort with its well-appointed amenities and thoughtful touches throughout. We were a large party of 26, and the house accommodated us comfortably. There was ample space for everyone, and we never felt crowded. The bedrooms were spacious and cozy, providing a peaceful retreat atmosphere. The property had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. The kitchen was fully equipped. The living areas were inviting and provided plenty of entertainment options for both kids and adults. Although our experience was fantastic overall, we did encounter a few hiccups along the way. Regrettably, we misplaced a pair of headphones during our stay at the pool, and after tracking their location, it seemed they were taken and we could tracked doing multiple stops around the area. Additionally, the dryer was broken and caused some damage to A LOT of our clothes. However, we understand that technical issues can occur, and the owner promptly addressed our concerns. Despite these minor setbacks, our time at this vacation rental was truly unforgettable. The beauty of the house, the comfort it provided, and the memories we made together far outweighed any challenges we faced. We are already discussing plans to return and create even more amazing memories. We highly recommend this VRBO

Amazing Place
We had such a wonderful time here with our friends & family! We stayed here during the week of our wedding. Paul and his son Carter were super helpful and responded quickly! It was perfect. We used the second house as a bridal suite to get ready in the day of our wedding. We also used it as a place to host a welcome party for our guests the day before. Everyone was so impressed with the property. We got to use every activity- the boys loved the volleyball and basketball court. Overall wonderful stay. My only suggestion would be to add a regular shower into the upstairs hallway bathroom. The bathtub with the hand-held shower is doable, but would of made it nicer to have an actual shower.
