A real gem!

This is a great little place right in the middle of a beautiful key. The area is quiet, the beach is amazing, and there was a great mix of snowbirds, families, and couples wandering about every day. Everyone was friendly and happy.Manasota was devastated by the hurricanes and the repairs are ongoing. It's clearly been a struggle for the residents and property owners. The restaurants and shops were open and happy to have customers!The unit was renovated and the owners are working hard to make sure the property shows very well. It was a very comfortable place tucked away. The sunsets are incredible and you can enjoy them right on the covered porch. This is truly a "right on the beach" place!

Pat was honest and handled our situation well!

So it was immediately after Hurricane Helene. Pat kept us updated as we were on the road to the property. The day before we were to arrive Pat called and said option A was out and option B would have too much water. So she refunded all our money including the VRBO fee. Excellent and honest host.

Great location

Great location. Was clean and comfortable. The only recommendation for improvement would be to get some new pillows. They were very worn and flat. Also, blackout curtains in the bedroom would be wonderful as the red safety-porch lighting wasn’t blocked by the blinds. Definitely a great value though.

We had a great time - the location, right on the gulf and a short walk in HOA property across the street to lemon bay, was excellent The condo had everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable, and was a nice quiet place to enjoy our stay. We hope to return at some point.

The stay and experience is one to be remembered. Next time I will book my vacay longer. Once you get there you don't want to even think about leaving! If you're looking for a great Florida beach vacay,book this! I am a Fla native and I rate this 10+

Right on the beach!!

You can’t get any closer to the beach!! Very clean and updated. Lots of beach gear to use. Kitchen had everything you need to cook. Bed was comfortable. The only problems we had was the red outdoor light shining in the bedroom window. There is a window blind but a curtain would do the trick. You can hear the people walking around upstairs so you won’t need an alarm clock. The bathroom could use an exhaust fan as it gets very humid and steamy in there when taking a shower. Still had a wonderful stay!!!

Beach get away!!!!

The beach house was spotless and set up nicely, and we loved our stay. The only thing I can think of is there was no extra bedding in the closet, as it was stated the description but overall, I would recommend this beach house and will definitely be staying in it again. Absolutely amazing very nice place to stay right on the beach!!!!!

Relaxing get-away

My husband and I have stayed at a dozen or more VRBOs across the state of Florida. Our most recent stay was probably one of our most favorite to date! The private beach access was perfect, and the beach was beautiful. The condo was clean, neat, tidy, and had all of the amenities one could ask for. Access to the condo was easy, and the owners were quick to respond with questions.

Perfect little slice of Paradise

The unit we stayed in set the tone as soon as you walked onto the front porch for a relaxing beach vacation. The inside was exceptionally cleam and decorated with the ocean vibe. Just perfect! And being right on the beach is great too! We will definitely be back!

2024 Florida vacation

Original description made it sound like the pool was in close proximity to the unit along with being able to watch the sunrise. Not so. While the walk and crossing the street to get to the pool was not a huge distance, it was further than we wanted to walk. The Gulf was beautiful, the sand was HOT and rough walking on it barefoot. All in all we had a wonderful time. Weather cooperated and we returned home to a 25° temperature difference. We are already talking about next year.

Nice, affordable little place with a great location

I have family that lives in Englewood, FL and love to visit the area, but my husband and I really wanted to be right on the beach for this trip to maximize our time there. This rental fit our needs of being right on the beach, affordable, and having access to a pool. The condo is a comfortable size for a couple and was clean upon arrival. As others have stated, the sea grapes in front of the condo block out the view of the ocean, although the beach is only steps away and the sea grapes do create some privacy. The pool was easy to find, clean, quiet, and a nice size and temperature. Would stay here again. Thank you for a great stay!

Wonderful spot on the beach

Super location! Updated kitchen and bathroom. Clean and well maintained. Great for 2. Reasonably priced too. I do wish the plants in front could be trimmed as there really is no view of the ocean from inside or on the front porch.

Beach Vaca

We had a great week on Manasota Key!! Accommodations were great!! We had everything we needed at this place. Spent all our time outdoors enjoying the beach and the water. Only wished we could have enjoyed seeing the beach while we drank our coffee on the porch. Everything else was great and would highly recommend this property.
