Weekend in Bradenton Beach and AMI

We had a great time and enjoyed the use of a golf cart to get around the beach and Anna Maria Island. Excellent location , nice & clean, and would definitely go back again!

Great location and super nice golf cart

Great place. Sitting on deck in the evening was nice. Golf cart was amazing nicest golf cart we've ever been on. The beach items he had for use were great - ice chest, bikes, floats, chairs, unbrellas, pool noodles even a shade tent.The host Adam was great to work with!

Surfs up is fabulous

We loved our short stay in spite of it being unusually cold. We made the best of it. Explored the island, top to bottom and the location could not have been better. The bed was extremely comfortable and the private deck was peaceful and great for relaxing. Everything worked out great and we hope to return in April.

Can’t beat the location & Amenities!

Thoroughly enjoyed Surf’s Up. Perfect for our mother/daughter getaway: things we loved: you can see the beach and water from the unit, access to the beach is directly across the street, so easy. Use of golf cart was included and so much fun to explore the island. Also use of beach wagon and chairs was a bonus. Roof top deck is great and bed inside was comfortable. Great time!

Love this surf themed studio!

My daughter and I greatly enjoyed the location, decor and cleanliness of this studio. We loved being able to walk down the steps and hop on the golf cart too! We used the bikes to get around as well. We would definitely stay here again! ❤️

Fantastic

The rental was perfect for our pre-holiday decompression. The owner went above and beyond, picking my gf and I up, after we got stranded in the golf cart (which was our fault - turn it all the way off when not in use! :)) Would definitely return and recommend.

Birthday getaway

This place was absolutely wonderful. Just what we needed for a nice quiet long weekend. The only problem we had was the plumbing is older and the shower was very temperamental. The hot water was intermittent. Also the toilet didn’t really flush well. But this is an older place and it is absolutely amazing.

Just what we needed.

Property was exactly as listed. Very cute! Perfect for my 18 year old daughter and I. Still could see water from across the street. Heavy traffic on road but to be expected in the busy season. Had ALL the stuff we needed for the beach and the golf cart made the trip. We did some cooking, appliances could use a little updating, but got the job done.

Perfect for a romantic getaway

We loved everything. Surfs Up is clean and bright with windows and skylights, comfortable but uncluttered. Beautiful artwork gives it a very personal feeling. The kitchen and bath are well appointed. We enjoyed morning coffee and evening glass of wine on the deck watching the sunset over the Gulf. Adam has thought of everything! A golf cart, a garden hot tub, beach chairs and toys, bikes and more. Location across from the beach is fabulous. Highly recommend Surfs Up!

Can’t beat that view

The view and location are amazing! The house is on a busy street so sitting out on the deck isn’t quiet but the view makes up for it. You do have to cross the busy street to get to the beach. We loved having access to the golf cart, the seatbelts definitely need replaced. Half the time they got stuck and/or didn’t work. Communication before the stay was a little slow but overall we had a great stay.

A little slice of heaven!

Surfs Up is fantastic! We just got back and highly recommend it! The unit is steps away from Bradenton Beach and has amazing views from the top deck. They have everything you could possibly need to enjoy the beach. Umbrellas, chairs, floats, wagons to haul it all, bikes and the best part is it comes with a very nice golf cart that you can take anywhere on the island. It was extremely hot while we were there and the air conditioning unit kept us nice and cool. The unit has a full kitchen with everything you could need, also includes beach towels, bath towels,linens,extra blankets etc and a washer and dryer as well. By far one of our best VRBO rentals, highly recommend it!

Perfect location!! Golf cart included was such a perk.

You couldn't ask for a better location! Right outside the door is a stop for the free bus/trolley that runs the entire length of the island. The golf cart was really nice to have and we enjoyed tooling around the island. Amazing views of the water with beach access right abroad the street. It was close to Bridge Street but far enough away to be quieter and in the middle of the north and south end of the island. We stayed for our anniversary weekend and had a lovely time. The place was perfect for the two of us and included everything that we needed. A luggage rack would be nice but that would be the only suggestion for improvement. Everything was easy when it came to check in and check out and the instructions were perfect. Can't wait to visit again!

Excellent beach getaway!

Very clean, fully stocked. Loved the golf cart and beach toys, even had a full ezup with weights. Great locations across from the beach, close to the bay, close to trolly stop. Comfortable bed and clean linens. Air conditioner worked great as well.

Perfect location!

We enjoyed staying at Surf’s Up. Everything you could need really and every cabinet and drawer in the kitchen is neatly labeled. The gulf cart is a nice addition and seemed to be brand new. We used it to run to Publix which is quite close. The view from the deck is amazing and you can’t beat the convenience of simply walking across the street for beach access. We did encounter a couple of issues when we checked in but Adam’s dad came to take care of both items. Thank you again Adam and Adam’s dad!

Perfect location! Golf Cart 👍

Cozy, great location. Street not too busy, a few steps to the beach, and short drive for eating/ shopping. We were in Surf’s Up-top unit and no one stayed below us, it was perfect! Golf cart was the biggest highlight. We drove all over Anna Maria Island and the battery was still half charged.

What a Great Spot!

My husband and I stayed at Surfs Up at the end of May, 2024. We loved it! The unit is as advertised and has a fantastic location. The beach directly across the street (which is visible from the deck and living room) is absolutely gorgeous. We spent the late afternoon there enjoying the setting sun, which was just spectacular. The unit itself was perfect for the two of us as it allowed my husband to watch TV in the living room and me to lie in bed reading with the door closed, undisturbed. The deck is a great spot with a beautiful view. It is off a rather main road, so you will hear some cars going by, but it was not something that I found disruptive. Having the golf cart included was a major plus as we flew down from NJ and did not have a car. For anyone who has not been to AMI: the island is easily navigated end to end by golf cart. We had a great stay and would love to go back!
