About this property

This newly renovated beach themed 2 bedroom, sleeps 6. Private beach is a five minute walk. This unit has a unique and fresh look and feel. From the artist inspired kitchen to brand new beds, water was our inspiration. The cozy living room has all you need to relax and enjoy the tranquillity of Manasota Key. Watch the 55" flat screen, play some games or use the lightning fast wifi. This unit has all new appliances, mattresses and bedding. This palm tree oasis awaits.

Welcome to Starfish Stays. Our little piece of paradise is a two minute walk to a pristine private beach on the blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Starfish Stays is setting the standard on Manasota Key as one of eight units at Starfish Stays on the unique Manasota Key of Southwest Florida.

Starfish's beach is great gorgeous morning walks, shell and shark teeth collecting, swimming, sitting under an umbrella, basking in the sun or watching the most beautiful sunsets of the Gulf. Plenty of complimentary beach chairs, umbrellas, and towels in the unit. Two custom built outdoor showers hit the spot to rinse away the sand and salt. We make it easy for you to relax and enjoy your vacation.

The grounds of Starfish feature a beautiful pergola complete with gas fire pit, bbq, cornhole games and seating for eight!

The fantastic Stump Pass is 3 miles south of the property. Here you can fish, hike the nature trails, launch a boat or kayak or just relax on the secluded beach. Stump Pass is an excellent location for finding shark teeth. Parking is only $3 per day.

Blind Pass is one mile north on the key. There are nature trails, docks for fishing, kayak launches, and playground and picnic areas. There are public restrooms and outdoor showers as well as more beautiful beaches. Parking is free here and abundant.

Starfish Stays was completely renovated inside and out. Our property features 8 total vacations units. 1A is brand new and was completed November 2019. Everything is new down to the stainless appliances, queen size beds and custom countertop. Starfish 1A boasts two brand new queen beds, one in each bedroom, and a sofa bed w/ upgraded brand new memory foam full size mattress for added comfort in the living room. We offer a fully stocked kitchen, full bathroom, and all linens.

Starfish Stays has eight units on the same property! Four two bedroom units, 3 studios, and a one bedroom unit. We can accommodate larger groups in several units.

We have our own private beach access, a TWO minute walk to the sand. Looking to avoid the big beach crowds? Our private beach is wide, sandy and PRIVATE.

we love it

Great location, short walk and good access to the beach and canal, nice and very clean place, very helpful and friendly owner Paula and her helper Tiffany. Not far away from the island's restaurants, gift shops and food stores, Walgreens. Definitely recommend this place.

Great location!

Everything was as described! Clean, close to everything, easy to contact the hosts and the arrival gift was a pleasant surprise! If you plan to stay, you will not be disappointed! The beach is right across the street! Restaurants all within walking distance or short drive. My only suggestion to the hosts would be to number the units with the building number too. We had unit 1A, I went to the wrong Unit A at first and didn't realize it until another couple staying told us the other building was 1. Not a huge deal, just a thought 😎
