Phenomenal trip at a great price! The host was effective at communicating the whole way through. Neighborhood was safe, and downtown Englewood was very nice.
The home was clean, and had everything we needed for a great trip. The Foosball table saw lots of use and was a great addition. My brother in-law loved playing the Piano.
My daughter forgot a pair of pajamas when we left. The host mailed those to us free of charge along with a stuffed dolphin that my daughter fell in love with on the trip. They truly went above and beyond!!!
Will stay again in the future
Lovely! Will absolutely go back- in fact i recommended to a friend who will be booking soon :)

About the host
Hosted by Robert and Rebecca
We are residents of Englewood. We love the small town feel and relaxed beach vibe here in the Olde Englewood Village area. We created The Sweet Spot with the intent of sharing all of the things that we love about Olde Englewood with our guests.
Why they chose this property
This neighborhood has an old Florida feeling. It's history as a fishing village, easy access to Dearborn Street's shopping, restaurants and festivals, and the surrounding local nature parks make it a beautiful setting to escape the fast pace of the outside world.
What makes this property unique
Our property is a setting that will enable you to have the full "Englewood Experience." Local Restaurants, festivals and Farmers Markets, and water sports on Lemon Bay are all there to enjoy. These are all easily accessible by golf cart or bicycle. However, if you wish to explore the nearby areas such as Venice, FL and Manasota Key, they are also close by. We hope that you embrace this home and town as if it was your own, and make some great memories.
