About this property

Island Home, Casita, Saltwater Heated Pool, Beach

With a short stroll to the warm sand and crystal waters of Englewood Beach. With all the the modern comforts in place all you have to do is relax on your short stay or extended visit. Updated 2/2 main house and 1/1 Casita with a private entrance. Walk right out the front door to the new expansive pool patio featuring a saltwater heated pool, outdoor kitchen and plenty of furniture for spending time soaking in the warm Florida sun!

The home has a lockbox for entry. The lockbox code will be sent via text on the morning of the reservation. The Welcome Guide in the home will include the information about the home, wifi, trash day, etc. in addition to information about the local area. A contact number is in the book to reach me when needed.

Englewood is a quaint community that is known for Mom and Pop shops as opposed to franchise and big box stores. Manasota Key has several unique dining experiences with live music and entertainment nightly. Manasota Key Road extends the length of the 11 mile island. Hugged by an oak canopy, it makes for a great sight seeing trip whether by bike or car. The road is narrow so proceed cautiously and be mindful of bicyclists and pedestrians.

The entire home is yours to use exclusively. Bring the poles because the fishing is world renown. Beach towels and chairs provided for your convenience. Full size washer and dryer on site so you can head home with clean laundry. Fire up the propane grill and prepare today's catch for the family. Dedicated beach access just across Beach Rd. Down a quiet path, adjacent to the condos, to the wooden stairs. Such a short stroll you will be able to carry the chairs and cooler with ease.



Comfortable and welcoming floor plan with updated accommodations. Beautifully furnished with a nautical theme. Everything you may need is provided, so pack lightly. If you are feeling creative in the culinary department, you will certainly appreciate the open kitchen concept. Modern appliances and the rarity of a gas range. The main home has 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths for your comfort. you will find King accommodating in the Primary bedroom. In the second bedroom there is Queen size bunk beds with a pull out full size trundle bed accommodating. This room will comfortably accommodate up to 6 people. Pull out sofa. Walk right out the front door to an expansive pool patio featuring a saltwater heated pool, outdoor kitchen and plenty of furniture for spending time soaking in the Florida sun! Pool Heat is available for an additional fee when requested. The home is Wi-Fi enabled with cable televisions in the living room and both bedrooms. After a hard day of play, a glass of Merlot on the screened lanai is the perfect ending. The illumination of the space creates a sense of enchantment as you are lulled by the soothing sounds of the ocean. With a private entrance, the Casita offers a comfortable living space. Equipped with a bedroom, bathroom, television, small refrigerator and microwave; this provides well for guests or adult children. The home is located on a private lane with private beach access directly across the street. For further adventure, less than a half mile walk or bike ride, to the pristine waters of Englewood Beach. Directly across from the Beach you will find dining and entertainment options at the Lock N Key, Sandbar Tiki, Waverly and the White Elephant. Two bicycles provided for your convenience. This is the ideal setting in that it is private, yet close to everything. The home is located on a private lane with private beach access directly across the street.

This will help maintain temperature at night for the heat is only on when pump is.

This area is perfect for walking and bicycling. Immediate, deeded access across the street or grab the chairs and walk .3 mile to Englewood Beach. Stump Pass Beach is a must see and 1.9 miles from home. It has a bike rack for convenience. Walking paths along the water's edge through the cascade of trees lead you to the tip of land where Lemon Bay meets the Gulf of Mexico. The sunsets are absolutely breathtaking. Great location for shelling and shark tooth hunting. Do not be surprised if you spot a manatee swimming by through the clear, blue waters. Dolphins at play are a common sighting as well. Nature lovers are certain to appreciate the setting. Manasota Beach aka Middle Beach is less than 2 miles and is a secret treasure with limited beach goers. Perfect for a picnic or day of catching up on that New York Times bestseller. Rest. Relax. Renew.

The home is cleaned and sanitized between each guest. We will work diligently to accommodate early check in requests, but we want to ensure the home is top notch for your relaxing vacation. Two bicycles are provided with home and are stored in the shed. There too is a cute shuttle service called Stumpy's that runs along the Key that will take you to the Beach or restaurants. They work exclusively on tips. This information will be provided in our local information letter to you and posted in the Welcome Guide inside the home. Pet addendum and a Non-Refundable Pet Fee will follow for those with their 4 legged companions in tow.

*Charges will incur as a result of lost or missing keys and/or remotes.

Great place to stay! Loved the cozy house and the pool area was fantastic. Could benefit from keyless entry and fixing the disposal actuator.

Family Vacation with Dog

The house was perfect for our family. Very clean and nicely decorated. Comfortable furniture and beds. Lots of indoor space to eat, play games, watch TV and socialize. The pool area was the highlight. We paid extra to heat the pool, which was worth it as we spent the majority of the daylight hours on the patio. We had perfect weather and there were plenty of sun and shaded areas to relax. Nice, fenced area for our dog to wander. The grill worked great. Short walk to the beach which was hit hard by recent hurricanes. They are working diligently to clean up the beach and get more restaurants up and running. I was impressed with the progress made while we were there. Our family had a wonderful week. The management team was very responsive, easy to work with and friendly.

Great Property

First class rest and relaxation property, as well as great for entertaining. I'd recommend getting the pool heated if you have swimmers in your group. Poolside grill and bar area was fantastic. Set up your canopy on the beach and come and go until sunset (which were beautiful).

Beautiful location!

House is in a very quiet well maintained private drive just a quick stroll from the beach. House had everything we needed for a week stay. Had an issue with the A/C the first day but owner had a service tech come onsite the next morning to rectify the issue. The private Casita is well equipped and was perfect for quiet time away from the rest of the group. We had fun fishing the pier at Lemon Bay and hope to be back again next year. Once the pool (currently under construction) is added this house will be one of the best rentals on the Key!

My family and I really enjoyed our stay in Manasota Key. The house was everything we expected and more. Only down side was that I wish it would have had access to the bay.

Home away from home!

This was my first VRBO rental and I couldn’t have had a better experience. The rental agent responded quickly to my texts. The house was clean and completely matched the description on the listing. Check in was a breeze. I brought 5 ladies with me and all of the women were extremely satisfied with the home and location. Highly recommend this home and renter!

The area is very relaxing with only a short walk to the beach. The house had all the extra supplies you might need and the area had parasailing, kayaking and sunset cruises all near by.

A house near the beach

Disappointing stay. While the house is a stones throw from the beautiful beach, there are some problems. Some of the kitchenware was still dirty when we tried to use them. TV had lots of issues - had to keep adjusting cables to get it working. Standing water all around the house led to torment by mosquitos. Huge window in living room overlooks the street (kind of creepy there is no privacy). Check out process states there is no maid service and I am supposed to clean bedsheets? On vacation really? I brought my boat to fish the area but I would not advise it given the tight driveway and lack of access at the end of the street.

This place was clean, cute , updated and close to the beach and the bay, and some fun restaurants. We loved the seperate little unit ( it is a small bedroom but spacious bathroom)for night owls and each bedroom has its own bathroom.
