Memorable Holiday!

Seabreeze vacations enabled my family and I to have a most enjoyable, memorable and relaxing holiday. The property was perfect for us, including our twin seven year old boys. We even heard the manatee off the private dock one evening, splashing in the water! We would love to return one day.

Sea Breeze went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. Every detail was thought out before arrival. Check in/out was seamless. They stayed connected with friendly notices and reminders to make sure our needs were met. The property was well maintained and lived up to its billing. Overall a great experience.

Cute Property in Quiet Neighborhood

The property is cute and in a very quiet neighborhood with a lovely view of a canal in the back. Three bedrooms and bathrooms. The few maintenance issues we had were fixed promptly. Would recommend.

It is a spacious property!

The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need to make meals. The heated pool was awesome. It was less than a 10 min walk to get to the beach for sunset.

Our second time at Manatee Lookout

We LOVED staying at Manatee Lookout again this year, when we visited our daughter for Parents' Weekend. It is the perfect house -- quick walk to the beach, lovely pool, manatees to watch every morning from the rocking chairs on the canal. Quiet, peaceful property, well maintained and well located for both easy access to shops and restaurants and a homey stay.

This place was great. There were small things around the house that need minor maintenance but overall the property was great. We loved the private pool and the ability to all have our own bathroom. We would definitely book this property again.

Manatees, Comfortable beds and dinners by the patio!

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The highlight of our trip was to be able to walk to the back of the property and look for Manatees off the dock. We had a family of 6 staying with plenty of room, plenty of linen, and amenities. The beds were comfortable and we loved that every bedroom had their own bathroom attached. Dinner on the Patio every night was enjoyable and the walk to the beach was super quick and easy to catch those sunsets.

We will be coming back!

Manatee Lookout location was perfect, water access for fishing and kayaking, close to all the action of Pine St. A few blocks to the best beach on AMI. If you can get this property, do it. The communications and customer service was the best we have experienced in AMI. We will be coming back!

Quaint, quiet and exactly what we needed!

We stayed at Manatee Lookout for a long weekend in October. It was the perfect getaway for us to spend time with our daughter who is in Sarasota for school. We were all able to relax and spend quiet time together. The property is lovely--we enjoyed the quiet neighborhood, swimming in the pool and watching for manatees from the dock (yes! we saw several!). The beaches are a short walk and we practically had the place to ourselves. The island is quaint, quiet and exactly what we needed!

Great location and accommodations

Rental Company: Simple booking, check-in/check-out process, responsive when we had an AC issues in the home. Pricing was cheaper than other comparable properties. House: Manatees off the dock everyday. Dock is a bit tricky for young anglers to fish on the canal. Pool was fantastic with sunbathing ledge. Beach chairs, buggy, umbrella, sand toys, and some rafts provided. Location super close to Bean Point, Pine, and Rod & Reel Pier. Beds comfortable, Kitchen stocked with everything we needed.

Great location in AMI

This home was nice for our family for the week. Great location on AMI. About a 5-7 minute walk to the beach. Beach access location is pretty quiet so was never super busy. Good size pool and screened in porch was very nice. Kitchen is stocked well for cooking. Plenty of bath and beach towels provided along with lots of beach chairs, a wagon, and tent. On the downside, during low tide, the canal directly behind the house smelled awful, so evening swims were out. We were also not able to enjoy the pool or outdoors after dark as there were zero working lights in or around the pool. We reported this on our first day and although maintenance showed quickly, they were not able to fix it so it remained an issue throughout our stay. Hopefully they are able to get this fixed before the next guests arrive.

We will be back!

We had a wonderful vacation at the manatee lookout! We shared the house with another family, 4 adults and 3 kids total and was the perfect size. The location was super convenient to beach access and pine street. We rented a golf cart which got us around the island all week. There were quite a few ants in the house and upstairs air seemed to work but not blow cool. We never contacted maintenance. The staff was kind and was able to get us in before checkout time. Highly recommend and will be back

If i had my way, we wouldn't have left. It has everything you need. The pool and dock were hits with our family. We saw manatee multiple times right by the dock, and dolphins our first day. It didn't list it, but the house did come with multiple beach chairs, an umbrella, and a wagon to use. I would note that it got kinda warm during the day, just downstairs. That could have been us, not sure, but not that big of a deal. Also, they supply you with one towel, hand towel, wash cloth, beach towel, power person. We were there for 5 days and had enough toilet paper, paper towels, dish detergent, dish washing tablets, and laundry washing tablets to last. If you stay longer or have a bigger group, you may need to pick a few things up. No worries though, there's Publix... at every corner lol, but only one on the island. You're within walking distance to restaurants, piers, and right around the corner from Bean Point. We loved it!

Most definitely staying here again!

The house was amazing location and amenities. Very spacious and great for multiple families to all have space. The walk to the beach was less than 5 mins and easy to get to. We able to enjoy a manatee the first morning swim up and through the week. The house included all the items needed in the kitchen for meals. The screened porch was great to sit on morning and night and, the area was quite. Location to local stores and restaurants were great too. Definitely will stay here again!

A fantastic property! Can't wait to go back

We could not be happier with our stay at Manatee Lookout. The house was a short distance from the beach path. The area of the beach was not crowded and a beautiful section. The house was clean and had all the amenities that we needed for our week stay. We were lucky enough to see manatees at the dock one morning and enjoyed seeing plenty of fish as well. The pool was perfect for afternoon swims!! We can't wait to go back!!!

Very nice house, peaceful area with a fantastic screened living area. Short walk to quiet and beautiful beach. Could use some additional (tongs, baking sheets, forks, small tools) or nicer (glassware/cups) kitchen equipment.

Exceeded Our Expectations.

What a lovely home. It exceeded our expectations. Each room is spacious and has a private bath. The house is well equipped with everything we needed to help make our stay enjoyable. The pool was refreshing, the location was a quick walk to the beautiful white sand beaches of northern Anna Maria. Thank you for opening your home to us and our two small dogs for our mini reunion, girl's getaway. We had a blast!
