Is boating, kayaking, or fishing your thing? Sunshine Villa is the PLACE FOR YOU!!! Just a few paddles away from (Robinsons Preserve) THE BEST kayaking in the area! Plus, no bridges out to the bay from this beauty! Sunshine Villa is located on a canal with a 90 ft seawall and fishing dock that also has electric, running water and a 10,000 lb boat lift. A waiver must be signed for use of the boat lift. There is also a ladder if you choose to go for a swim or kayak (swim & Kayak at your own risk). This home was built on a larger canal that is approximately 120 ft across and you are minutes from being in the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico!
This property features a split open floor plan. Upon entering there is a formal living room and two nice sized bedrooms. These bedrooms are separated by a guest bath that offers a tub/shower combo. One bedroom offers a queen-sized bed, and the other guest room offers 2 twin beds (bunkbed) and a twin a trundle. From the living room you have a flowing, open concept that allows you to see through to the water as you enter the custom kitchen and wet bar. The wet bar is adjacent to the family room which offers tons of natural light and views of the pool/spa and canal. The owner's retreat is just off the family room and offers a king-sized bed, ensuite bathrooms and a view of the canal. The master bath features an oversized soaking tub with shower and double sink vanity.
The lanai/pool deck is screened in with pavers and the spa is heated. Outside the screened area, pavers lead to the fishing dock that has a seating area to enjoy sunsets and catch a glimpse of the occasional dolphin or manatee in the water.

This is a wonderful house located in a great spot. We were able to utilize the outdoor patio nearly every day. The canal provides excellent access to the Anna Marie Sound and is a great spot to see dolphins in the evening. This house is well equipped and freshly remodeled.
Fantastic indoor and outdoor spaces comfortably accommodated our adult family of 5! Appreciated the spacious screened outdoor area, as well as use of the kayaks, bicycles and boat lift. Robinson preserve is fabulous and an easy bike ride from the house. Management is top notch and very responsive. Loved having a hot tub, though the temp is on a timer that didn't coincide very well with when we most wanted to use it (mornings and evenings). Extra refrigerator in the garage an unexpected and welcome bonus. Thanks for a lovely stay!
Great location, very close to AMI.
Perfect house for a family, could easily spend entire vacation at the house.
Rental company is top-notch, very responsive.
I really loved it ! The views, the pool , everything, the beds are super comfy. And a very quiet neighborhood!! The house have all you need, the best place to be in your next vacation!!
This home was better than the pictures!! Very spacious and nice outdoor area. The neighborhood was quiet and perfect for morning walks. It was a perfect location between Anna Maria island and Bradenton. We were able to ride scooters to the island to shop.
We enjoyed very much are stay on Sandpiper Dr. Easy access, great location to everything we needed. Not everything was in working order but we managed and I know if we needed anything, the management would’ve taken care of it for us. Highly recommend!
We are VRBO regulars and have never experienced the level of communication that we received here. It was outstanding. The house is in perfect like new condition. The location just off the bay on a canal within walking distance to the Robinson and Neal Preserves and a few minutes to AMI or Bradenton. We had dolphins visit every morning and evening actively feeding on mullet. We caught plenty of our own fish too!
We really enjoyed our stay as a family! The kids loved the pool and the toys. Also had kayaks which you can take right into the water from the house. Very peaceful area and nice backyard view of the water. House had everything we needed and very kid friendly bedrooms.
