The Gulf is directly across the street from Runaway Bay 250 — and the lighted crosswalk makes the trip safe for families with young kids at any hour. This is a northern Bradenton Beach vacation rental where the beach is genuinely close, the complex amenities are the strongest in the portfolio, and guests have been coming back year after year — some for over a decade.
The complex delivers more than most: a large pool, pickleball courts, a fishing dock, BBQ grilling stations, and a workout room. The free island trolley stops right at the entrance — guests consistently report not needing their car for the entire stay. Bridge Street's restaurants and shops are nearby for evenings off the property.
The condo comes ready for the beach. A beach wagon, chairs, and towels are provided. Floats, noodles, toys, and additional gear are available. Games and cards for rainy days are inside. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything needed for a week of proper cooking — one guest made Christmas dinner here and noted it had nearly every item they needed. The private balcony is surrounded by lush tropical landscaping with muted waterway views — the right spot for morning coffee.
Two bedrooms sleep five. The primary suite has a king bed. The second bedroom has a queen bed and a twin bed. Two full bathrooms, both with walk-in showers. A full-size washer and dryer in the unit. High-speed WiFi throughout.
Runaway Bay 250 requires a one-week minimum stay with parking for two vehicles. Not pet-friendly.
