"To me vacation means everything you deserve but probably can’t afford. That’s how this space made me feel. It was exactly as the pictures portrayed. I cannot think of a detail that wasn’t thought out. It was beautiful. My kids and nephew were never bored. We utilized the pool and hot tub every day for hours. The outdoor TV was a huge hit with my husband and brother, while the kids swam and played in the yard. I thought we would go to the beach everyday but we ended up spending the majority of time at the house. We weren’t a fan of the platform beds and by the end of the trip my back definitely had enough of those. The front door code kept glitching no matter how soft or hard we shut the door so please make sure you ask for access to the garage door. Those are the only complaints, otherwise everything was pristine and I’m hoping we would be welcomed back. By far the best AirBnB we’ve ever stayed at in Florida. Very close to AMI and some of our favorite restaurants (The Starfish Comp)."

"This was our best Airbnb experience by far! The host was amazing, the house was incredible, and it was stocked with essentials and other items to a level we’ve never experienced before. It truly had every comfort of home that you can hope for. The backyard was amazing, and shockingly the chess board was the biggest hit amongst our young children (that and the record player, complete with our daughter’s favorite Trolls soundtrack). We can not say enough good about this entire experience, and are already looking into coming back next year!"

"Our stay at the Coral Cabana exceeded my expectations. The pictures were amazing but it somehow was way better than the pictures in person. Our group had so much fun, and the house has everything you could possibly need to have a great vacation. We’re already wanting to stay here again next year. Thank you Michelle for an unforgettable time!!"

"I booked Michelle’s place for my family to celebrate by son turning 18 and as way to wrap up our summer before he heads off for college. Every single one of us had an amazing time. This was my favorite Airbnb I have ever stayed in. The home was both adorable and clean inside and the backyard was absolutely stunning. We didn’t want to leave. I cannot wait to book again."

"I’ve been going to Florida for a while now for vacation and I have to say this house was the BEST by far. We didn’t have the best weather but it didn’t matter with this house. There were so many games to keep us busy. It felt like our own resort in the backyard. At night when the lights came on it was beautiful! Beaches were so close for us and a few restaurants on the beach! I would recommend this house to everyone!!"

" Our family had such a wonderful stay at Coral Cabana! From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The house was spotless, beautifully maintained, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. The pool and outdoor space quickly became our favorite place to spend time together, and the location made it easy to visit the beaches, restaurants, and local attractions. We also appreciated how easy the check-in process was and how responsive and welcoming the hosts were throughout our stay. You can really see the care and attention that has gone into this home. It made our trip even more special, and we created memories that we’ll always cherish. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and will definitely recommend Coral Cabana to our friends and family. Thank you for such an incredible experience!"

"Amazing amenities! Something for everyone, whether they wanted to be outside or inside. Enough room for everyone to spread out and relax. The backdoors have an alarm if you open them without pressing the button, which saved our sanity because the pool wasn't gated and we have a one year old running around. The only downside was the road noise. Throughout the day and night, whether you're inside or in the backyard, you can hear the vehicles speeding through the 30mph neighborhood."

"We had a fantastic time during our stay and couldn't have been happier with our experience. The home was exactly as pictured - if anything, it was even better in person. The kitchen was stocked with all the essentials we needed, making it easy to prepare meals throughout our stay. We also appreciated the thoughtful extra touches, which made us feel especially welcome. The backyard truly exceeded our expectations and was the perfect place to relax and spend time together. Throughout our stay, the host was extremely responsive, friendly, and helpful whenever we had a question. We're already saving up for our next vacation, and this Airbnb is definitely at the top of our list to visit again. We would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a wonderful getaway and can't wait to return!"

"The house is in a quiet neighborhood that is not too far of a drive to the beach and is also close to everything you need. We had a blast in the back yard. The back yard is great to spend time and have fun with family or to just relax. We all loved it."

"Me alegro mucho de haber encontrado este lugar para la celebración de la despedida de soltera de mi prima, fui con mi mamá, mis abuelas, mi tía y mi prima, y pasamos unos días increíbles, una de las pocas casas en las que he estado que todo estaba tal cual en las fotos, un sitio bello muy colorido, con muchas actividades, todo impecable, muy cerca de la playa, nos encantaron todos los detalles que ofrecen y la comunicación con Michelle fue excelente, siempre atenta!! Sin duda es un sitio al que volveremos para celebrar cualquier otra ocasión!! 100 % recomendado!!"

"This is first place I’ve stayed at that was 100% as nice as the photos. The teens give it 10/10. Lots of insta and snap photos were taken. The kids definitely would stay there again. House was spotless and beautiful. We loved it. Plenty of space to relax, yet we had house full of teens so not much relaxing for us. But they all said they’d rather stay there than on the beach!!!! We’ll definitely be back."

"Wow! Of all the Airbnb’s we’ve stayed at, this one might be our favorite. The inside is beautifully decorated and very clean, with eclectic colors and fun decorations. We loved the record player and the kids room was beyond amazing. My son loved every inch! The beds were comfortable and we thought the kitchen had everything we needed and more. Now on to the best part - the outside. It’s INCREDIBLE! The pool, the hot tub, the bocce ball court, the firepit, the bar, the playground, mini golf, life size chess - I mean, what more could you ask for?!! We didn’t even have to leave the house! Everything looked exactly like the pictures. Michelle was a great host - responsive, easy to communicate with, and very professional. 5 stars!!!"

"This home was amazing, immaculate inside and out, and exceeded our expectations from the moment we arrived. Everything felt fresh and thoughtfully put together, and the house was stocked with everything we needed, down to the smallest detail. A great example was the provided beach gear; the chairs, umbrella, cooler and wagon made our beach days even more enjoyable. There was so much to enjoy right at the house, including a wide variety of games and amenities both inside and out, that we could have easily stayed in our entire stay, but the home’s close proximity to Anna Maria Island made it incredibly easy to get out and take full advantage of everything the nearby beaches had to offer. The layout worked very well for our multi generational family, giving everyone plenty of space to relax and enjoy themselves. On top of all that, Michelle was incredibly responsive and helpful, which made our entire stay smooth and stress free. We would absolutely love to stay at the Coral Cabana again!"

"Impeccable home with brand new interior! We had plenty of room to spread out - the house had spacious bedrooms with super comfy beds. The kitchen and family room were open concept with lots of space. The kitchen had a huge center island that easily held all of our groceries and other stuff. We did not run out of counter space which is impressive! There was a great little coffee bar to get your caffeine on and a large Florida room with a big table to host groups for dining or games. There are Roku TVs in most every room including the back patio making it nice to lounge outside in the great Florida weather. Each Roku is in guest mode allowing you to use your own favorite streaming service while ensuring you are automatically logged out at the end of your stay. The backyard was freshly landscaped and had a pool, hot tub, and Tiki bar. All this added to a great Florida vacation vibe. The house was located close to everything we wanted to do. - Just over a mile to the beautiful Robinson Preserve with miles of walking/biking paths, fishing, and a lookout tower. - Short drive to Anna Marie island for beautiful beaches, tons of free parking, walking path, shopping and places to eat. The Anna Marie Oyster Bar on the pier has great food and a view. - It was an easy drive to explore Longboat Key, Sarasota and Siesta Key with its beautiful Siesta Beach. - Close to Starbucks, groceries, food, and convenience stores. Hands down one of the best rentals we ever stayed in. We would definitely stay there again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a great home base for their Sarasota/Bradenton area vacation."
Book Direct
Why book with us directly
Best Rate, Guaranteed
Skip the platform fees. Guests who book direct typically save 10-15% compared to booking the same home on Airbnb.
Why direct costs less
Booking sites take a cut of every stay from the owner. On Airbnb that is about 15.5% of the booking for most hosts, and other sites charge a range of fees, often lower, but they all take something. Book on our direct site and none of that goes to a platform, so we can offer you the best rate for this home. A small card payment fee still applies, as with any online payment.
Direct Line to Us
No algorithms, no ticket queues. You get our real contact info before, during, and after your stay. Questions answered fast.
Talk to the people behind the home
Booking through a platform usually means messaging inside its app and waiting in its queue. Book direct and you have our email and a direct way to reach the owners who run the home, from your first question to checkout day. Ask about the house, the area or a special request and you hear back from us, not a support script.
Returning Guest Perks
Come back and we remember you. Priority booking windows, flexible check-in when available, and occasional rate discounts for repeat guests.
A guest list that is ours
A direct booking puts you on our own guest list, not a platform's, which lets us look after repeat guests. That means first look at open dates, flexible check-in or check-out when the calendar allows, and occasional returning-guest rates. Perks depend on availability.
Local Insider Tips
