This is more like a destination resort - just no spa - than a B&B. The historic property they purchased in 2008 has been meticulously maintained and expanded to accommodate weddings, the occasional planned dinners, and the ongoing bread and breakfast theme. Just across the Manatee River from downtown Bradenton, they offer a magical getaway without the long journey. All Covid protocols are observed and the spacious home is spotlessly clean, offering four suites - two with with gorgeous river views - and three other guest rooms along with an enclosed wraparound porch dining area with unobstructed views. As it is a bed and BREAKFAST, you will be served - a meal fit for kings & queens rolled out on a cart. From gravlax to bananas foster to caviar...think decadent European palace and you'll be close. Emerson Preserve and the beach is a short drive for fresh air, hiking and more chilling. The hosts are warm, friendly and just delightful, making your stay special. This was simply incredible and so helpful for us to relax and recharge. The pics say it all...we'll be back

Been to Florida several times in the past and never saw an Alligator. On the way to the Hunting area I saw a smaller Gator so you can cross that one off !. We were on Hogs pretty fast. The only thing was the hunt was over within an hour. Fast forward to the lunch. Deep fried Mahi mahi and fries! It was fresh and you could taste that. All in all it was very nice! I would recommend it and so far after hunting several places in Florida this was the best experience. They offer other hunts so go look the website over. I have to give a shout out to my Guide Walker. The youngster worked hard for me and I appreciate it. Mike the cook threw down a good fish fry . Going again this October for more Hogs !

My husband and I went for a quick honeymoon getaway, just 2 nights of our Florida trip because our room was booked over the weekend. There was plenty of parking in front of the hotel which was perfect because we didn't need our car in Dunedin. Check-in was seamless and the communication with the front desk was excellent. We stayed in the Zen Suite which has a patio facing the street. There is a lovely wine bar with live music across the street. Both nights we sat outside and enjoyed the music but do visit Stirling Wine (I reviewed them as well, great crowd). The Zen Suite is so comfortable and thoughtfully decorated. Anything you need is already in the room including dishes, flatware, refrigerator, iron, blow dryer and robes. It was easy to relax. The king bed was very comfortable. We found everything in the room easy to operate - TV, AC, door locks. We also enjoyed the pool area. The pool wasn't heated so it was too cold for me but my husband enjoyed it. I relaxed on a lounge chair with an umbrella. We also took advantage of the breakfast promo with the red next door which was very convenient. Overall 10/10 doesn't cut it. We cannot wait to visit again and will stay at least 3 nights!

This is without doubt a hidden gem! My wife and I come here on staycations.

The pool is a great place to sunbathe, cool off and meet people, although it's not uncommon to have the pool to yourselves. The rooms each have their unique charm and are quite comfortable. Plenty of shower pressure and hot water in the bathrooms. The entire place is clean and outstanding from a decore perspective. The owners are very prompt in their communications. On top of all this you are essentially in the middle of downtown Dunedin with plenty of bars, restaurants and stores within walking distance. Even though we just had a three day stay, I'm already looking to book another stay here!!

Dodt house at that time was comprised of 1 room accommodations with a private bathroom and some offered a heart shaped whirlpool. In keeping with the times, the owners have retired, and the HH complex has been renovated and reconfigured with the main house now being closed to the public and the Dodt house has been remodeled to accommodate larger groups (it is now a 6 bedroom and direct Gulf Front rental - from https://annamariaisland.com/harrington-house-accommodations). I have fabulous memories of this place! It's steps from the beach, and the room costs included a delicious, filling, homemade breakfast every morning (at that time in the spacious dining room of the main house), parking, kayaks, bicycles, beach chairs, towels, snacks/cookies, and at least one swimming pool. I was really impressed with all the amenities included in the room fee!!!! The proprietors and staff were so friendly and helpful embodying the motto "Come as a Guest, Leave as a Friend!" I smacked my finger while kayaking and it would not stop hurting and the staff were very helpful in getting us to a doctor, and of course, I broke my finger (totally my fault, Momma didn't name me Grace!) who x-rayed it, bandaged it up, and I was all set after that! Amelia island is a lovely, quiet, beautiful 7-mile island and so easy to bike and very bike friendly at that time! I really enjoyed biking the island, and ocean kayaking to a nearby restaurant - I think it was The Beach Bistro, or the Oyster Bar on the pier. It was so fun to "park" the kayaks and walk up to the beach front dining! A far cry from my landlocked hometown of Huntsville, AL. Holmes Beach/Amelia Island is my favorite FL destination and I'm happy, although reconfigured, Harrington House still offers a variety of vacation rentals.

If you are ever looking for a true relaxing getaway, Harrington House is your place. Each room is unique and cozy. Some rooms overlook the gulf and you can see the sunset from your room. Some rooms have a balcony. Or you can choose to stay in one of the bungalows. There you have a full kitchen, and a bit more privacy. No matter if you are in the main house, the carriage house, the cottage or a bungalow you will be treated like you are family. The breakfasts that are served are not to be missed. Each day is different, but there us always some sort of home made baked bread. Afternoons you can often enjoy home made chocolate chip cookies. Jo and Frank and their son Mark are the Inn's owners. Along with Ann, Megan and Jeanette, they all do all they can to make your visit the best that it can possibly be. The white sugary beach is just out side your door. There are rarely more than a dozen people at the beach at any one time. It is so peaceful and relaxing. Anna Maria Island is a true gem and Harrington house is the crown jewel. Thank you to all of you for creating such a paradise. Can't wait to see you again soon.

They do not do their job and when Airbnb renters go to the property they have to clean and do repairs themselves. Kruz rentals then lies and says nasty things on their review about the renters to save themselves from looking bad and not doing their job.

She was very helpful showing us around the house, and pointing us out to where everything was.  We had breakfast and snack items galore to make our perfect customized breakfasts at our convenience. We felt very comfortable immediately. We loved every thing including the decor, how clean it was. Our bed mattress and pillows were very comfortable. The bathroom was huge and had a very nice Jacuzzi. The living room, dining room, and kitchen had everything we needed and more. This home felt like paradise to us.  Our favorite place in this home was the lanai and pool.  It was just so beautiful beyond words. We loved going for a swim at night. The water was perfect. It was so relaxing, and it was an all-around spa-like feel.  We are definitely planning our next visit to Royal Bed and Breakfast. I would rather keep it a secret just for us, but I would rather not, so everyone can share the happiness and relaxation that we felt. Englewood Beach, Placida, and Boca Grande which are all beautiful beach towns are all about 15-20 minutes away. It's a great location!  We appreciate Liane very much! P.S. Mocha Coconut, our sweet, spoiled shih Tzu pup loved it as well!
