Bradenton Florida is a great community located only a few minutes drive from one of Florida's best kept secrets, Anna Maria Island. Anna Maria forms the southern tip of Tampa Bay, and is the convergence of the Bradenton River with the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Anna Maria is a favorite destination among both international travelers and Florida residents who flock to the island to take advantage of our wonderful weather and excellent shell hunting on the pure white sands of Holmes Beach.

Cross the bridge located at the southern tip of Anna Maria Island and you enter the old fishing village of Cortez. From its waterfront seafood houses and commercial fishing boats, it is a favorite of locals and you can find the best fish and chips at the historic Star Seafood Company.

If you miss your turn when leaving Anna Maria you can visit Longboat Key; a haven for snowbirds and retirees looking for quiet, up-scale beach living. With real estate offerings from 13 million to $200,000, Longboat Key holds a property for every taste and lifestyle.

If playing a round of golf at county club, feeling the thunder of hoofs pounding the turf at a polo club, and enjoying the peace of a gated community is more your lifestyle, the 8,500 acre master-planned community of Lakewood Ranch will surely inspire you. Lakewood Ranch real estate abounds in all styles and price ranges and is a much newer development than anything in old Bradentown. (As it was called in it's early days)

Lakewood Ranch is a self sufficient community complete with a medical center, main street bistro shopping and dining, commercial office space, and home to many national businesses.
