Beautiful condo!

This condo is beautiful. Very comfy beds, well equipped kitchen. Gulf views from almost every window. Only wish the elevator had been working as it’s 4 floors up which is quite a hall with luggage and groceries. Hopefully next time we come the elevator will be back in working order!

Family of 5 on Spring Break - Calm, Relaxing, Beautiful Vacation Spot!

The condo was very spacious and had everything our family of 5 was looking for. Having the views of the bay (sunrise) and gulf (sunset) was amazing. The lanais were nice to relax on, but some shade would have made it better. We had a couple days of strong winds/choppy water, but after that it was perfect weather and clear water. We found so many beautiful shells and shark teeth easily! Having a heated pool was so great and a nice break from the ocean. We visited the local restaurants, ventured to several as well. Some of the family also went on a fishing charter. Most stocked condo I’ve been to, needs to advertise all amenities on post - give yourself credit! Also, helps visitors pack less. Plenty of pool/beach towels; Closet w beach supplies: boogie boards, cooler, bag, beach chairs, toys; Plenty of blankets, pillows, & bath towels, etc; many dressers and drawers; Laundry detergent; Coffee filters & coffee; Foil, plastic wrap, baggies; Bath and hand soaps; Paper towels & toilet paper; decorated and cushyFeedback: Lanai needs some shade; Kitchen: cabinet laminate is coming apart; Pool only has 4 chairs and no shade; Floor in kitchen & between couch & kitchen was sticky; Check In & Check Out instructions emailed vs sent through Vrbo chat vs booklet in room were not consistent and very different; Master patio: lounger needs pad; pool railings are still being repaired from hurricane

Friends Trip

We weren’t sure what to expect after the hurricanes in October, but I can tell you that this condo was beautiful. We knew the pool fencing was not in yet, but that wasn’t an issue for us. The elevator sustained damage and was non functional, but we survived. There are 69 steps up to the penthouse. This condo had plenty of towels, including beach towels. The kitchen is very well stocked with everything you need. Every bedroom having their own bathroom was! There is plenty of room so we never felt like we were on top of each other. We were a short walk to 4 restaurants so we didn’t need to drive anywhere. There is still a lot of damage in Manasota Key, but watching the sun rise from the balcony and walking out of the condo onto the beach made it easy to overlook.

Repeat stay!

This is the third time we have stayed at The Palms 12 and it won’t be the last! This condo is in the perfect location! It’s more than enough room for our group of 7 for the week. It has a fully stocked kitchen and everyone has their own bathroom which is a huge plus! There are tons of beach chairs and toys so you don’t have to bring any. We loved the new couch and furniture in the living area! We will be back!

Beautiful view

This is our second time staying in this property. The layout of the condo with the three ensuite works perfect for our family. Being able to see the ocean from the couch when there’s bad weather is great. The views are amazing. We love the fact that we can walk to restaurants. We saw dolphins, rays, and manatees.

The Condominium and Location Was Great

Took a family trip for the first time to Manasota Key. Yes, it had tons of sharks teeth. The unit was spacious and comfortable. We had 5 adults in our group and it accommodated us easily. The unit was clean, well appointed and very close to the beach. Maria made the booking and check in process very easy. We loved the dedicated covered parking space as well. Ideal unit and location if you really enjoy time on the beach. Looking forward to returning in the future.

Wonderful Location

The property is fantastic and the condo was well appointed. Plenty of size to spread out and enjoy family or get away for some time to yourself. Weather was great and water was calm and crystal clear. We enjoyed the pool for a few days before it was drained and closed the remainder of the trip which was a little disappointing. There was a good deal of construction during our stay. The condo owners had a gutter crew installing gutters on the building as well as a painting crew that was paiting the entire building. Overall a great stay. There are a few restaurants within walking distance of the condo. White Elephant and The Sand Bar were our favorites. Already daydreaming of our next trip to Manasota Key.... ♡
