Private home with a pool on a tropical island, only a 2 minute walk to the Gulf!

Come relax at our private home on tropical Manasota Key! Your toughest decision will be whether to swim at the semi-private beach on the Gulf of Mexico or in the pool with a view of Lemon Bay.

This charming home has everything you need for a peaceful, family-friendly getaway. The main living area has an open floor plan with a spacious living room, fully equipped kitchen and dining area. The living quarters are separated to allow friends or family to have a space all their own. One side of the house has a private owners suite with a king bed and full private bathroom with a walk in shower. The opposite side of the home has a bedroom with a queen bed with its own pool access, a bedroom with two twin beds and a large full bathroom. The covered patio area provides opportunities for open air dining and is attached to the screened-in lanai. The living room and all bedrooms are equipped with smart TV’s with streaming capabilities. Other amenities include an outdoor shower, gas grill and laundry room.

Manasota Key is a picturesque barrier island with an old Florida feel. The location offers easy access to plenty of outdoor activities including fishing, kayaking, golf, hiking and of course, beach combing! Both the sunsets over the gulf AND the sunrises over the bay are breathtaking! First-rate restaurants are just a mile away and live entertainment is available to you whenever the mood strikes.

There is a $100 per week fee for pool heat.
Guests must be 25 or older to rent.

Perfect Location-Steps from the Gulf
Kirsten and Jeremy were perfect hosts. The house was super clean and well stocked. Plenty of towels, dishes, and cooking staples. Florida is super-hot in July and August, but the air conditioner kept everything nice and cool. The pool is a nice addition as well. Thanks for a nice time!

Perfect for our Family!
We stayed with our 4 kids for a week. The house was as described and was just what we needed. The goal for the trip was to beach, swim, find shark teeth, fish and visit family. We had a great time doing all these things. Owners and property manager were accessible and helped when needed. The pool was perfect to cool off on hot days. The large kitchen table accommodated our family. The path to the beach was great. Would recommend!

Wonderful Stay with everything we needed and more!
Excellent location, very nice neighbors nearby. Kitchen was stocked when we arrived. Much more than any other rental we've seen. All the basics already there plus much more! Pool was wonderful that outlooks the bay plus is covered so no bugs. Beds slept very comfortable and plenty of room for all 6 of us. Beach is just a short walk and we even fished from the bay and caught a few. Very wonderful home there in Englewood, FL right on Manasota Key. We hope to be back very soon!

From Missouri, had several young adults and a teen with us.
This is an amazing property. It had everything you would need a pinch. The pool was the best feature as far as coming off the beach and wanting to cool off , it was really an amazing space to relax and spend time. Also for those who had too much beach time . The house it self was well stocked with towels, linens, etc. There are a few items in the kitchen that maybe we were missing but we made do no big deal. It was just a walk to the beach through a path. The beach was really private only a few other families at a time were there . Bonus for people with several guests : you can still call the little golf cart Stumpy’s to get a ride to restaurants, for different opinions on places to eat. If I had to say one negative thing it would be that the grill was really not in a shape that you could grill on, it was rusty not in good shape for food period!!! We were hoping to grill burgers, brats and fish but that did not happen. We used the oven and the range. It worked but not want we had wanted. We enjoyed our time and thought it was well worth it!!!

Wonderful home!
We had a great time staying here on our vacation! The home was clean and had several daily items (paper cups, spices/seasonings, etc) on hand that other homes we have stayed in didn’t have. Kirsten was very informative and easy to communicate with. The pool was wonderful, the kids had a blast! The beach is a short walk from the home, which is great. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Access to beach and access to beach equipment is great
We loved all of the little extras with this place; beach chairs, floaties, the outside shower is awesome! The location is fantastic to the beach, restaurants etc. The one thing I think is important to note is that the twin beds, I beleive, are kids beds. So my 6’ tall son was not fitting in the bed really well. But all in all…awesome rental! Beautiful vacation. Would definitely go back!

Great stay!
House was amazing and just what we were looking for. Spent hours upon hours in the pool and you could see the bay as you floated in the water. House has everything you would need and more. Beach was a short walk away. Golf cart shuttle will pick you up and drop you off to any restaurant up the road. Awesome happy hour specials at all the bars with Lock & Key bring the most fun with the scratchers. Already planning a return trip!

Not a good experience
When we first arrived at the property the front lock didn’t work, we contacted the owner and they sent someone to try to fix the lock twice. We were left with one key which wasn’t a big problem because we could just go to the back door to let ourselves in because the sliding doors didn’t lock at all. There was also no hot water in the guest bathroom.
