Modern Lakefront Condo Near IMG Academy & Anna Maria Beaches w/ Pools & Hot Tubs

There is a certain kind of morning that only happens on the water — the kind where you step out onto your screened lanai with a cup of coffee and the lake wraps around you on two sides, completely still, while the rest of Bradenton has not caught up yet. That is the morning waiting for you here, every single day of your stay.

This ground-floor corner unit at Shorewalk Vacation Villas is one of the most sought-after Bradenton vacation rentals on the Gulf Coast — panoramic lake views from multiple exposures, direct outdoor access from your private lanai, and the kind of resort community that makes guests genuinely reluctant to leave. Guests return year after year, and once you arrive, it will be obvious why.

THE SPACE
At 1,250 sq ft, this Gulf Coast condo rental is a true corner unit — meaning extra windows, wrap-around lake views, and an abundance of natural light that interior units simply cannot match. Being on the ground floor means no stairs, no elevator waits, and direct step-out access from the lanai straight to the beautifully maintained lakeside grounds. Ideal for families, guests with young children, or anyone who values easy in-and-out living.

The open living and dining area seats four and flows directly onto the screened lanai, where the lake takes center stage from the first morning to the last. The kitchen is fully equipped for real cooking — full appliances, complete cookware, and everything you need to settle in like a local. Publix and Aldi are both a short walk away. The master bedroom has a king bed, walk-in closet, flat-screen TV, and an ensuite with double sinks. The guest bedroom has two twin beds with a full bath nearby — perfect for kids, teammates, or a second couple. In-unit washer and dryer, high-speed WiFi, Smart TVs, and beach chairs for your Anna Maria Island days are all included.

THE RESORT
Shorewalk Vacation Villas is a full resort destination, not just a condo complex. Two heated pools, two hot tubs, tennis, pickleball, basketball, bocce, shuffleboard, scenic lakeside walking paths, a clubhouse with billiards, and BBQ grills — all within beautifully maintained grounds that most guests genuinely never want to leave. Restaurants, groceries, and shops are all within easy walking distance of the front door.

5 MINUTES FROM IMG ACADEMY
IMG Academy is one of the most prestigious sports training institutions on the planet — and this Florida beach condo sits just five minutes from its gates. Families traveling for tournaments, recruiting visits, and showcase events return here because it offers something no hotel can: a genuine haven with a full kitchen, two resort pools, two hot tubs, and a lake-view lanai to decompress on after a long day on the sidelines. This is IMG Academy accommodation that feels like a proper family retreat.

15 MINUTES FROM ANNA MARIA ISLAND
Anna Maria Island vacation days are easy from here — fifteen minutes to Coquina Beach, Bean Point, and the clearest turquoise water on the Gulf Coast. Pack the cooler, grab the beach chairs we provide, and make a full day of it. Lunch at the Sandbar Restaurant on the water, or Skinny's Place for what many locals call the best grouper sandwich on the island. Both fifteen minutes from your front door.

WHAT RECENT GUESTS SAY
"We were 15 minutes from the beaches, close to restaurants, and enjoyed swimming in the pools/hot tubs. The pickleball courts were an added bonus".

A lovely, clean Apt with a good size walk-in closet; it is close to IMG, Publix and Walmart. Easy access to Tampa Bay Area and Sarasota. We enjoyed the stay.
