Perico Island, Bradenton hotel rooms at the Independent

"It not loud very close to the airport and good drinks at the bar. Can be updated but not bad"

"They did not clean the room the entire week. We had to search them down to get a few clean towels, toilet paper, etc. When you would actually see anyone from the staff in passing, we would say “Good morning”, none of them ever replied. They brag on about Billy B’s, but did not care at all about the hotel. "

"This was exactly what we expected. The apartment was spacious and well kept. It was quiet and felt safe. It’s a 5 min walk to the beach and close to a shared pool. There wasn’t an outside balcony/ patio but they provide everyone with a couple of chairs which proved great for an early morning light breakfast. "

"The room was clean and some staff members were helpful. However the second floor had a strong smell (possibly mold)? Breakfast was ok. The floors in our room were not cleaned (dirty socks and feet) the day we got there. They also did not clean our room while we stayed even after we asked. "

"Our stay at the Carlisle Inn was wonderful! The woman at the front desk was very pleasant, informative, and hospitable. The lobby was inviting and beautiful!!! Our room was clean, and it was a bonus having 2 sinks! I hope we get the opportunity to stay here again!"

"Great location, very clean, good breakfast."

"Unfortunately we were placed in what is the old section. It is very outdated, beds were uncomfortable and needed replaced. I would not return. "

"The beach view was amazing! The staff super friendly. The rooms were clean little out of date. The beds and pillows super comfortable. There was a little kitchen sink, microwave, mini fridge toaster and silverware! Plenty to do on the resort! Plus it’s on an absolutely stunning beach. Everything extra food & drinks pretty costly. But so worth it! We’ll definitely come back!"

"Great location! Sloppy Joe’s restaurant is right on the property with great food and live music. I especially like that they provide beach chairs, beach towels and pool towels to their guests."
