This homes location makes for a beautiful quiet escape. The bed was super comfortable. Kitchen had all the items one needs to make a meal and clean up the dishes. The owners had great communication with us the entire stay! We will definitely be going back, but need to do it during the height of manatees timeframe.

This was our first time visiting Ozello, and it did not disappoint. We booked this location to get away from the hustle and bustle for a few days, and it did not disappoint. This cozy community is so beautiful, and the people are so friendly. It was also a plus the property was dog friendly, and a couple nearby restaurants (one in walking distance and another a 10-minute drive) allowed pups on their patios. There were lots of parks within a short drive and nature at every turn. The house itself was perfect for our needs with a great deck on which to enjoy stunning panoramic sunsets. The hosts were so helpful and accommodating. We’re very fortunate to have found this secluded oasis and look forward to visiting again.

The pictures do not give enough credit to this property! 10/10 stay. The back deck has a beautiful view of the bay area and is a great place for bird-watching or having a glass of wine. A really quiet and comfortable place to stay. Our hosts were very communicative and helpful. We will definitely be back and stay here in the future.
