The Beach Club at Anna Maria by RVA - Bradenton Beach, Florida

James P.

My stay at the Beach Club was fairly disappointing and frustrating. The rooms are spacious, well decorated, and somewhat modern. However, this property is lacking the proper management that would make it truly comfortable with minimal effort. The smoke detectors are missing, with wiring hanging out of the ceiling, the bathroom sink was cracked, there was sand all over the floor when I checked in, the ceiling fan was dangerously loose, and there were only knives in the kitchen (defeating the purpose of having a kitchen). The A/C is effective, but very loud and you can hear the A/C units and bathroom sounds clearly from adjoining rooms.

One of the main deal-breakers for me was that I decided to stay here specifically because they have a pool and hot tub. When I arrived, the onsite manager claimed that both “just recently” broke and would not be operational during my stay, though I suspect they haven’t been working for a while. Even if they did break after I made my reservation, it would have been nice to have known before I arrived.

Overall, this is not a terrible place to stay, but I didn’t appreciate the dishonesty or sloppy upkeep. It’s a pity given that they wouldn’t have to do very much or spent a lot to make this a much more comfortable rental. Given the price point, there are significantly better options in the area.

Edit: lowering to one star because they promised me adequate compensation for the pool closure at checkin and did not honor it at checkout

The good:
Very close to a beautiful beach, literally across a busy street.
Rooms are small but clean and the AC works well in unit 4.
The area, while devistated from the hurricans, is rebounding quickly and this entire area is beautiful.
The Bad:
The pool and hot tub are shut down. The story we heard is that they were basically filled with sand after the hurricanes and now they need pumps, lines etc replaced to operate.
We wanted a hot tub but were never told about this issue. They will be closed for some time.
Overall we had a wonderful trip.
Thank you
Anna Maria Island for your great hodpitality!

Had the three bedroom condo, which was very nice except one bathroom didn't have any water, but was fixed the next day. 40 feet from the beach. Pooled was closed due to the past hurricane.

The pool and hot tub are broken and I was not made aware until check in. Otherwise, great location. Just wish there was a discount for the inconvenience. I would not have booked if I knew the heated pool and spa were not working as advertised.

Let me start off by saying Michael and Martha in the office are absolutely amazing at the beach club . Wonderful people. My niece left her emotional support bear in the bed and we think it got sent out in the laundry, but they did everything to get it back and send it home safely!!!
Location is Almost perfect other than you have to cross The road to get to the beach, but you can see the ocean from the rooftop seating awesome at night. Book here you won’t be disappointed again Martha and Michael Angels.

My sister and I are staying at The Beavh Vlub in October. We have heard Wonderful Reviews. We are excited to come visit. I spoke with a nice lady on the phone who was extremely helpful. Looking Forward to our trip.

Stayed here with my daughters and this was in the perfect location. In walking distance to dinner and directly across the street from the beach. My ONLY complaint is the doors are very loud (like you’d expect at a traditional hotel) so we had a rough time falling asleep with the group above us coming in and out all night! The unit we rented was on the first floor and had a cute little porch that looked out towards the ocean (across the street). Perfect place for a family, couples, friends or just a solo trip! Parking was great and the unit was very clean.

My wife and I stayed here the week of May 14, 2023. Great location with a beautiful beach. Place was quiet and comfortable. Nice staff who was very helpful.

We actually arrived a bit early on a Sunday and we were let in early even though they didn’t have to. Much appreciated

Located right at a beach access and easy to get on beach and use assigned lounge chairs. Loved this place and will go back. Close to cool restaurants as well for good food near Bridge Street.
