With this being such a high tourist area during season, there are a lot of rental condos/houses nearby that usually have a lower nightly cost during the off-season (November). Anywhere on Holmes Beach, Anna Maria Island, NW Bradenton, and Downtown Bradenton will be anywhere between a 5-20 minute drive from the wedding venue!
