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.

Relaxing vacation
We had a great time at this property. We truly enjoyed being so close to the beach as well as having a private pool. We spent most of our time outside in the pool or looking for shark teeth at the beach. We walked down the beach to the restaurants twice for lunch! Our family truly enjoyed this area and cute little rental house.

Perfect location to enjoy Manasota Key Beach
Our stay here was idilic. The beach was minutes away via a private foot path and the pool at the house perfect. The neighborhood is extremely quiet and private. The house was roomy and had all needed to make our 3 week vacation stress free and relaxing. Would have booked it for next year but someone beat us to it :)

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!

We loved every minute of our five week stay at this darling beach bungalow! I'll start with the location because it was perfect for us - a short walk to a beautiful quiet beach and close to bars and restaurants. The house was exactly as pictured. The furniture was very comfortable throughout the house, and it was equipped with plenty of everything that we needed. The layout with the main bedrooms being on opposite sides of the house is great for 2 couples. We spent a lot of time enjoying the very nice pool area with a view of the bay. Kristen was very sweet and just a text away if we had any questions. Loved this house and would love to stay again.

Wedding week in Florida
We spent the 1st half of the week prepping for my childhood bff's wedding. she lives near by so the venue was close. The location was perfect! the kids thoroughly enjoyed living a true 'Florida lifestyle' w/ the pool "in the house". They are 4 and 7 and that was the best part. We never did find an iron and the beach umbrella didn't work. Thankfully we were able to borrow from friends who live nearby, but that was a bummer. The beds were all super comfy and that was the best part for me! Loved being able to call on the Stumpys ride to get into town for dinner and drinks. The place was great and we had a blast.
