Description:

While staying at The Palmetto House Bed & Breakfast you can sit back, relax and enjoy the simple but charming ambience of our newly restored Historic 1912 Arts and Crafts period home. Framed by towering Royal Palms and moss covered Live Oaks our Romantic Riverside Inn sits quietly secluded on the banks of the Manatee River, overlooking the award winning Regatta Pointe Marina and the skyline of Bradenton. We have been highlighted by North America Inns Magazine. We also have been voted Best In The South and One of the Top 15 B&Bs / Inns by Inngoers in Arrington's Bed and Breakfast Journal and selected as One of the Top 10 Florida Inns with a View by the Palm Beach Post. Our Inn is the perfect Oasis. Lay by the Pool and soak up the warm sun. Enjoy reading your favorite book on our air conditioned Sun porch overlooking the Manatee or sit comfortably on our Andirondack Chairs while enjoying a refreshment under our Live Oak tree. Enjoy a stroll or bike ride along the Manatee waterfront. Set your sail or arrange a fishing charter at either the Regatta Pointe or Twin Dolphin Marinas. If you want to shop, we are just minutes away from the St Armands's Circle or the PrimeOutlet Mall. To top off a perfect day we would be pleased to show you a menu from one of the many delightful area Restaurants and Cafés. We offer our guests a Full Buffet Breakfast which is served daily on our enclosed sun porch overlooking the Manatee River. We serve freshly ground and brewed coffee, fresh fruit juice, an array of baked breads and pastries, a fresh fruit medley and a hot entrée from our own collection of delicious recipes. LOCATION and ATTRACTIONS We are Centrally located between St. Petersburg and Sarasota, just minutes away from the best attractions and activities that the Southwest Florida Gulf Coast has to offer. We are only 10 miles from Anna Maria Island and Holmes Beach so if you want to lay back and refresh in the emerald blue surf of the Gulf of Mexico we can suggest the perfect patch of white sand for you to visit.
