Enjoy many beautiful gulf sunsets on this gorgeous beach just steps from the condo!
You will avoid large public beach crowds on the private beach access. Beach is wide and sandy and walking south from condo you can literally walk 2.7 miles to Stump Pass State Park at the end of the Key (a must do!)
Looking north there are also miles of quiet beach great for fishing, walking, running, shelling and shark tooth hunting. Dedicated beach chairs, cart, umbrella and beach toys available for those who prefer to relax.

Manasota Key is popular with the shell hunters and this display on the walk down to the beach explains why.

About this property

Chillax on the Beach or by the Bay!

Private beach on the Gulf. A community dock with bay access. This bayside condo was renovated in October 2023 and it provides you with everything you need for the best, most relaxing vacation ever.

The unit is a second-floor 2-bedroom condo located in a very quiet, well-maintained, beautifully landscaped, 30-unit condo complex on Manasota Key within walking distance to Englewood Beach.

Our unit includes a fully equipped kitchen, dining room, and spacious living room. Bedrooms consist of a king bed (serta perfect sleeper -the only official mattress of the National Sleep Foundation engineered to help solve 5 common sleep problems) in the primary bedroom, 2 twin beds in the secondary bedroom (mattresses replaced 12/2021), and a queen sleeper sofa in the living room. Our condo has plentiful towels for the beach and bath, beach chairs, and other amenities to make your vacation as comfortable as possible.

We do our very best to decorate and maintain everything in clean, working order as this is a vacation destination for friends as well. We use what you use so the towels, cutlery, and place settings are all kept fresh and purchased specifically for the unit vs. hand-me-downs brought from home. For entertainment, there is basic cable, Netflix, and Roku on a 50" LED TV with high-speed internet so you can enjoy some evening couch time or have options to keep the kids entertained so you can relax on the screened-in balcony. Our friends live here too so we understand your needs.

There are also great restaurants, bars, and shops all within a 5-10-minute walk.

Great place to get away
The condo was great! Had everything we needed and more. Whole family fit great in it. It was literally 250 steps from stairs to sand. Beach was great. Not crowded at all. Can't wait to go back!

Fantastic!
This condo was just perfect. Plenty of room, clean, towels supplied, beach items available, and convenient to restaurants. When we first got to the condo, we could not find toilet paper. I reached out to Jim, and he got back almost immediately to let us know where them packs were stocked! Can not wait to go back! Thank you so much.

Perfect location
Perfect spot to be able to fish and enjoy the beach and pool. Short trip down to restaurants and stores and there is a golf cart shuttle local that will take you for a small donation. Could’ve been a little bit cleaner like by the stove but overall a good stay.

Beautiful place to vacation
We have been coming to Manasota Key for 10 years and it is our favorite place to stay. We had always stayed in Bonita/Naples/Fort Myers until we found this beautiful place and we are never disappointed. We have stayed at Sunburst Condos a couple times and it is great for families. Nice pool area and access to both the ocean and bay is a major plus. We bring kayaks and fish and the dock and fish cleaning area are really nice. We had a fantastic time and no problems of any kind and will definitely stay again!!

About the host

Hosted by Jim Fraser

Host profile image
Our family loves Manasota Key and hunting for shark teeth on the beach. We bought this condo on the bayside to compliment the one we have on the gulf. The bayside seems to have a unique "chill" feeling that just lulls you into the whole laid-back feeling you get in Englewood. We love the fact you are within walking distance to great bars and restaurants frequented by the locals. And the short walk to a private section of the beach makes this condo very special.

Why they chose this property

If you want to people-watch, Englewood beach and park is a 5-minute walk or 0.2 miles away. Nature lovers will enjoy Stump Pass state park & beach which is 1.5 miles away. This is our family's favorite beach and one of the reasons we purchased on Manasota Key. Stump Pass is situated on the southernmost 1.2 miles of the Key and features a long hiking trail through the scrub and a quiet undeveloped beach. With very limited parking available you are guaranteed the most private, secluded, public beach experience in south-central Florida.

What makes this property unique

On your vacation, you will likely see dolphins and manatees, spectacular sunsets, and hear the calming sounds of the Gulf of Mexico on the private beach a short walk from the door.

Too much of the beach? Do what we do and take a break and relax by the heated pool or on the dock just outside the unit overlooking Lemon Bay, the intercoastal waterway. High-speed Internet access extends well outside the unit so you can get caught up on emails or surf the web while at the pool or the beach.

Enjoy fishing? If you don't want to charter a deep sea excursion at one of the local marinas or fish off the pier, just relax and fish off the private beach or bayside dock. It is all just a few steps away on private grounds.

There are also a number of great restaurants, bars, and shops all within a 5-10 minute walk. Many of these establishments feature live music and are also frequented by the locals so you know the quality of food and entertainment you can expect. Being within walking distance of restaurants, beaches, the pool, and the dock means you will go days without getting into your car for that relaxing resort-type atmosphere.
