Our stay here was great! The saltwater pool was warm. The home had the best accommodations. The neighborhood was peaceful yet close to bars and restaurants with transportation accessible via Stumpy's Free Rides (just be sure to tip your driver) Just a few minute walk to the beach with beautiful sunsets. One couldn't ask for a better host. Thank you, Kirsten.

The Sand Dollar was a wonderful place to stay with our two young children and parents. The pool was perfect and the walk to the beach was incredibly easy and quick. The beach was very private and beautiful. We enjoyed looking for shark teeth and tried to beat another person’s record in the guest book - 2000. But we fell short - if we didn’t have young kids that needed naps we would have beat the record for sure! The home has almost everything you need. There is a free golf cart shuttle that will come pick you up certain hours of the day, which we used several times. A very convenient location to restaurants and town. We would stay here again for sure.

Beautiful home in an excellent area and very close to the beach! We enjoyed being able to walk across the street to the beach anytime we wanted and to have the ability to return at anypoint for naps for the little one! Excellent communication and easy check in! The house also had beach chairs, an umbrella and coolers to use as well! The pool was great as well to relax in while at the house!

The house was spacious with everything we needed. The house could use a good deep cleaning, but other then that it was nice. Beach access was a 2 minute walk literally across the street down a few house and your on the beach. The pool was also nice to enjoy on a hot day. The beach was never crowded. We enjoyed walking along the beach looking for shark teeth and snorkeling for sea shells. I would recommend staying at this house and would definitely stay again.

Fun Times in Manasota Key!

We can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay here! We walked the beach every morning and watched the sun set every night. We saw dolphins as we kayaked in the bay! And had excellent food and spirits at both the Lockn Key and the White Elephant. Our down time by the pool was so relaxing. What a great way to spend time together with family!

A Tranquil Retreat in Old Florida Style

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely old Florida-style home. The property was super clean, and even amidst ongoing construction and rebuilding from hurricane damage, the quiet setting offered a peaceful retreat. The listing pictures were spot on, accurately showcasing the charm and comfort of the home. We particularly enjoyed the pristine pool. The location was fantastic, with just a short walk to the beach where we delighted in finding shark teeth and witnessing stunning sunsets over the Gulf of America. The internet connection was excellent, allowing us to stay connected during our stay. The hosts were also incredibly responsive, always getting back to us within a few hours. One of our favorite restaurant spots was the Lighthouse Grill, which offered reasonable pricing and a delightful waterfront view. Additionally, we had an amazing fishing charter experience and enjoyed a Fossil Hunt in Arcadia. Overall, our experience was exceptional, and we highly recommend this rental for anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway.
