Lovely stay
A quick stay with a good friend on our way to a family wedding further south in Florida. We enjoyed the lovely cottage - it was decorated beautifully and very comfortable. I am in love with the bath wallpaper!!! My only suggestion is to add hand soap in the bathrooms, and to have a non-dairy creamer/sugar for those that may want it. The owner was very good with communication and let us know that we could check in early as there wasn't a guest on our arrival day. We enjoyed exploring Bradenton and Anna Maria Island. Ate at a nearby restaurant, The Lazy Ballerina, on Manatee Ave, for dinner - great food and service.

Great cottage in spite of weathering hurricane Debby
The cottage was lovely and comfortable. Unfortunately we were there during Debby and that caused some problems with the property. There was some water seeping in from the chimney after work had been done the previous week. The torrential sideway rain and severe winds were quite strong. We have relative in town and they too were affected. We contacted Karen right away and she got on it. She brought lots of towels to contain the water and contacted the chimney guy to correct the situation. He was there within 10 minutes. Obviously we just lucked out with our timing and made the best of it. Karen did what she could do to resolve the problem. In spite of this we would would go back to the Mango Cottage, hopefully not during hurricane season.

Weekend getaway
The mango cottage was beautiful and exactly as pictured. Made for the perfect getaway for the weekend. Its located in a very quiet neighborhood and close to everything you could possibly want/need. Only thing I would change is a curtain or something on the back kitchen window and an oscillating fan for the bedroom. Was still a wondeful and relaxing stay and will definitely be visiting again in the hopefully near future 😊

Boho Chic
This Boho Chic home is oh so lovely. The owners thought of all the little details. We felt right at home. And the unexpected surprise was the Mango Tree in the front yard! Karen quickly responded to our questions and was super accommodating to our request to check out a little later. Yes! I would highly recommend this property over and over again.

Mango Cottage
We stayed a week at Mango Cottage- it was our first beach vacation not staying directly on the beach. It worked out great. We went to Siesta Key once, and Holmes beach daily. The cottage is convenient to the main road to everything. The house is decorated very cute. The only thing I missing was a dishwasher but we solved that problem by not cooking 😊

Cute cottage
The Mango Cottage was perfect for our brief stay for a destination wedding at Palma de Sola Botanical Park. The cottage provided a peaceful respite to the hectic wedding activities. This property is absolutely gorgeous in its decor and comfort. Hostess Karen did a great job keeping us informed and answered our questions. The area was also so much fun! Plenty of beaches, views, sunsets and great restaurants. Loved our stay and our trip!

Bradenton Bungalow/ Old Florida design
It was a delightful retreat for us, and from the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the charm and character of the cottage. The old Florida design exuded a sense of nostalgia and authenticity that immediately made me feel at home. The attention to detail in the decor and furnishings added to the overall ambiance, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The Cottage itself was immaculately maintained, and it was evident that great care had been taken to ensure guests' comfort. Everything was spotlessly clean, and all the amenities provided exceeded our expectations. In conclusion, our stay at your Cottage exceeded our expectations, and we cannot recommend it highly enough to anyone seeking a peaceful getaway in a charming setting. We look forward to returning to the Cottage and creating more cherished memories with our daughters.

Quiet, centrally located, charming bungalow
This beauty is clean, decorated beautifully, comfortable, centrally located, and in a very quiet and safe neighborhood. So easy to get to from the airport. A quick 10 minutes to the beach. Has all the conveniences of home. Plus a few extra that I wasn't expecting, like the plush pillows and linens on the bed, the oversized bathroom towels, the gorgeous stand alone tub, the relaxing outdoor porch swing, and even a washer and dryer. The landscaping was so pretty, and there is an enormous mango tree in the front yard, producing all of the freshest mangoes you could possibly want!! I will definitely come back the next time I am in town. Thank you Karen and James for a lovely week!!

Wonderful stay in Bradenton
We spent one night at the Mango Cottage at the tail end of our spring break and it wasn’t enough! We needed a place for one night and chose the Mango Cottage. We were not disappointing. The home is absolutely gorgeous. The beds and linens were top notch. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare a much-needed home-cooked meal. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch swing in the quiet cute neighborhood. The clawfoot tub was the cherry on top! Definitely recommend staying longer than one night.

So enjoyed our stay at Mango Cottage
We had a wonderful time at Mango Cottage. The hosts, Karen & James, were very responsive to our questions. They have a guestbook with tons of information on things to do and restaurants. The cottage was very comfortable and beautifully decorated. The front porch swing is so nice to sit on and enjoy the Florida weather in March. We enjoyed sitting out back also. Mango Cottage is conveniently located to Lecom Park where we took in a few baseball games. Anna Maria Island is a short 20 minutes, depending on traffic. Depending on when you are in Bradenton, dinner reservations are highly recommended. Perhaps it will be necessary to make reservations a day or two in advance, however, we were there during spring break. Mango Cottage made our stay in Florida wonderful! We highly recommend this quaint cottage and the great hosts!

Great home, lots of character, well appointed and cozy. It has beautiful landscaping, appears newly completed a nice front porch swing, great outdoor area. The only thing that we didn’t love were the plugins which gave the home a somewhat strong smell, even after unplugged. We’d absolutely stay here again!!!
