Great Family Vacation!

Beautiful home. Equipped with everything you can possibly need. Plenty of room for large family to be comfortable. Beautiful pool, beautiful dock. Quiet shark toothed filled beach. Seven year old grandson collected over 1000 shark teeth! Don't hesitate to rent!

Sunrise to Sunset…Best of Both Worlds!

The property worked out very well for the whole family. The house was very clean and well stocked with everything needed. The area itself is very quiet with the Gulf of America being a short walk across the street. If you’re into collecting shark teeth, this beach is the BEST! Our host was very accommodating to a few minimal issues which was much appreciated. We will definitely return.

I’ve been searching for words to describe this property. The only one I can find is Exceptional! Exceeded our expectation. Beautiful house, well stocked, something for everyone. We have stayed in many rental properties in Florida and North Carolina. This is the only one that the whole group agreed upon being the best we’ve ever been to and hopefully can come back to again. Fishing from the dock and the private beach were good, beachcombing was good, the pool was awesome and the grandchildren were wore out every night! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. I could go on and on about the property. Can’t wait to return!

WOW!!

We absolutely loved everything about this house and location! The short walk to the beach, having our boats out back, fully equipped house, the pool is amazing, no need to load up on beach toys and chairs bc they have it all! The home is beautiful and easy to be comfortable and feel at home and room for everyone! All of us were sad to leave this place!

Perfect location

The house is beautiful, exactly as pictured. It is probably the best stocked rental we have stayed and very clean. Plenty of room for kids and teens to have their own space. The location is amazing. Our family spent days on the beach, rented a boat to keep at the dock for afternoon dolphin cruises on the bay and squeezed in some pool time as well. We definitely followed others suggestions to bring bug spray or cover up for mosquitos on the quick walk to the beach.

February School Vacation Getaway - Excellent!

We booked our stay a while ago and had been looking forward to a week away from the New England winter for quite some time. There were no regrets or letdown. It's true, the pictures don't give the full experience. The grounds are immaculate - even when some of the surrounding properties are still struggling to recover from the hurricane last fall. The house and furnishings are high quality - comfortable beds, quality sheets, ample towels, well stocked kitchen, beach chairs, basic fishing poles, incredibly comfortable couches, numerous seating areas, poolside furniture, pool toys.....it felt like a home away from home that was done just right. We typically spend most of our vacation hanging at the beach, walking up and down The Key on the beach, searching for sharks teeth with little time in the house. This location was great. It's a pleasant 2 mile walk all the way up to North Beach that you can do on the beach. However, the red tide was pretty rough this year (first time in a while). We were only able to a couple of days at the beach right across the street. Instead, we were pleased to have the perfect setup with the large pool and patio - hours of just sitting outside. Yes, you do get some bugs after sunset down by the pool. They aren't as bad on the elevated decks that are right off the living room/kitchen area. We spent most days with the AC off and the enormous sliders wide open to the decks. Sunrise was perfectly viewed off the back deck just to the side of the dock and across Lemon Bay. The sleeping arrangements were also great for two families - main master suite and a secondary master suite on the main floor. A two full size bed suite that the older girls slept in - bathroom with shower. Lower level was great for the younger boys - bunk room and a queen size bedroom serviced by a full bath. No complaints and I can't give enough praise. Hope to go back next year!

perfect family getaway!

Upon arrival, my group was struck by the beautiful landscaping and greenery along the drive. Pictures of the home that are listed are accurate but did not do the house justice. It was beautiful, comfortable and had a florida/beach vibe. This is exactly what we were looking for. The home was well stocked with necessary kitchen items, lots of towels and a very nice laundry facility. Beach chairs and towels were provided. Fishing poles and basic tackle were provided. The beds and linens were high quality and very comfortable. We had 5 adults and 4 teenagers. The layout of the home provided 3 different living room areas for everyone to spread out and have their own space. We rented bicycles that allowed our boys to ride the mile or so to the public beaches on either side of us. The pool area was phenomenal! The water was a refreshing temperature. There were opportunities for both sun and shade with plenty of places to lounge. The beach is also very nice. While there was a lot of sea weed in the water, we found a variety of shells and shark teeth. The beach is very private. We were one of two groups on the beach during our stay. We prefer the slower pace of this area. One of the highlights of this property is the balcony on the main level that faces the pool and the bay. We have stayed many places and this was the only stay where our group enjoyed evenings on the balcony having a drink and visiting. Just make sure you bring some bug spray. ;) We will definitely be back!!

This place is paradise. The listing just does not do this place justice, you have to see it to believe it. The location was prime, perfect for our family who does not like the crowds and enjoyed some privacy. The pool was amazing, and the PRIVATE beach was just a short walk across the street. We loved it so much, we are most likely booking again already for next year. We had 6 adults and 4 kids, fit us perfectly. House is also stocked with everything you need, other than food lol. Communication with owners was perfect and quick as well. Great Job!!!! Thank you.

Outstanding!

We just got home today and I wanted to write a review on this property it was amazing inside and out! The beach is conveniently a walk across the street and down the path. We loved how this house was layed out, we had 10 people staying in the house and this house is so big we were able to have our own space. We seen stingrays and all kinds of fish off the private dock and caught alot of catfish. And if your looking to find sharks teeth.....that won't disappoint either! We found a TON!!!! Several good restaurants right down the street. We had a 17 month old and she loved being out on the upper deck, the staircase was blocked so we didn't have to worry about her. So if your thinking about this property.....It will NOT disappoint!!!

Property ID 2204133- Fantastic!

This is a well appointed high end property, but not stuffy or fussy. Still has that Old Florida charm that is so hard to find any more. Location is second to none- beach is across the street and the Intercoastal is right off the dock in back (equipped with a lift and fish light!). The kitchen is unreal... coming from a former pro. The Property Manager helped my family through an exceptionally tough and unexpected time. She was available (and beyond helpful) at times that only true professionals would be picking up their phone (THANK YOU -L!). If 6-stars were available...

Beautiful house, great location!

This house is amazing - definitely one of the best VRBO houses we've rented. It is beautifully decorated, has tons of space (including 2 family rooms), and has a gorgeous pool and backyard. We brought our boat, which was great because we had it at the house's dock the entire time. Private beach access is right across the street. Only problem is that there is so much tropical vegetation on the path to the beach that there are tons of mosquitoes, so we had to spray up with bug spray just to make it through to the beach. The beach is narrow, but serene and isolated. We were usually the only ones there. And there are a ton of shark teeth to be collected. Kids had a blast.

Exceptional Family Vacation Home

This incredibly beautiful property exceeded our expectations in every way. It is spacious enough for our party of 9 to gather together comfortably to cook, dine, play board games and watch tv etc and also more than enough rooms to spread out and/or retreat to your own bedroom/bath space. The furnishings and decor are beautiful and comfortable. The outside is even more incredible with large balconies, gorgeous pool, landscaping and dock on the bay. The best part of the property is the location. Steps away from the gulf, we practically had the beach to ourselves. Manasota Key is so quiet and beautiful and yet not too far of a drive from shops, restaurants etc. Loved every minute and hope to return!

The layout of the house is perfect for larger groups, allowing everyone to spread out and find their own nook. We'll definitely be making a note to stay here again in the future!
