We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on Manasota Beach. The house was perfect. Clean upon arrival, comfortable beds, private setting. Enjoyed sunrises from our deck and sunsets every evening at the beach. The hot tub was an added bonus during the cooler November evenings. Our host was quick to reply and happy to help in any way. A truly lovely stay.

We booked this property for the location and views and we were not disappointed! Most windows have water views in the home. We loved the dock and caught some sheepshead within a few feet of the dock. The beach walk is only a couple minutes and the beach was perfect. We prefer bayside properties and this one is like having your own nature sanctuary out your back door. We had temperatures in the 30s/40s with strong winds but the hot tub on the deck enabled us to still enjoy the view and outside. The house is well stocked and the host was great.

This house is absolutely beautiful from the amenities to the views. It had everything we needed for a very enjoyable stay. Our host was very attentive to all our needs and answered all inquiries in a very timely and courteous manner…We fished from the dock and walked across the road to watch spectacular sunsets each evening. While it doesn’t have a pool we had a lot of fun kayaking on the bay or just relaxing on the dock or in the hot tub.. We will definitely be back

Relaxing fun stay.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The property was clean, very well equipped with a lot of extras. We enjoyed the peacefulness of just sitting on the dock and the ease of walking across the street to the beach. The area is slowly opening back up since the hurricanes, but we found plenty of local restaurants and parks to visit.

Great place on the water

The house is at a great location on the water with a dock and a very short walk to the gulf/ocean. The hosts were great with communication and meeting our requests. The house was clean and fit our needs to fish, kayak, paddle board, hang at the beach, cook for two families, etc. would definitely stay there again!

Wonderful little weekend away!

The highlight of this VRBO is the manager of the property. Always communicating and quick to get back to you with anything you may need. Thank you so much. We had a very comfortable stay and enjoyed our coffee looking out to the water each morning! Which by the way the espresso machine and frother are a great addition! The beach across the street was perfect. Thank you again!

We had an incredible time during our stay. The home is stunning and the location is unbeatable. We were at the beach in 3 minutes. The place was spotless, spacious, and decorated with class. So much thought has clearly gone into making the space inviting and comfortable too. Can’t say enough about the owner’s attentiveness and thoughtfulness. Thanks to her suggestion, we got up to see the sunrise and ended up meeting a manatee by the dock. My family and I visit Manasota Key once or twice a year. This has been our favorite property and we are looking forward to going back.

Fun Vacation Home on the Water

We had a great vacation in this home. While it’s not top-end fancy and luxurious, it’s the perfect vacation retreat. The home is roomy with a large table inside as well as another on the screened in porch/lanai to gather or play games. There are bedrooms on the upper and lower floors giving different parts of the family privacy. There’s a large, well-stocked kitchen, a nice living area, lots of parking and a great hot tub. The new, large dock on the water is a great place to relax and fish! The vacation was topped off with very kind, helpful hosts that made sure everything was right. We would definitely book this home again.

We had a wonderful stay at the Bayfront home on beautiful Manasota Key. The views of Lemon Bay from both the house and the dock were amazing—photos do not do them justice. We are amateur birders and were lucky to see eagles, various herons, shorebirds, egrets, and more. We even saw a dolphin swim right by us!The sunrises were incredible, and it was just a short walk across the street to the beach for sunset. The host was extremely helpful and responsive, and gave great recommendations for restaurants and things to do. The home was spotless and very welcoming. Overall, we highly recommend Bayfront.
