Great spot for a weekend getaway
The cabana was perfectly placed for our visit. It was clean and very comfortable. Having the beach across the road was quite convenient for us. We will definitely stay here again when we visit Longboat Key in the future. We truly enjoyed our stay.

Relaxing in Longboat Key
We enjoyed our morning coffee out on the canal with the manatees every morning. The place was clean and in a beautiful setting. The owner was responsive and prompt to solve the missing blender by delivering another to our door. We would love to stay here again.

Beautiful Cabana on the Canal.
Beautiful cottage style property. Very clean tastefully decorated. Unit is exactly as described in the listing. Resident Manatees visited every day. We will definitely rent this property again.

Beautiful setting
This rental is in an ideal spot--on the canal but just across the street from the bay. The owner/manager was very helpful with my mistakes booking this property (due to my poor tech skills.) I definitely recommend this property and owner/manager.

Lovely rental on canal
Very clean, nice property on salt water canal with daily visits from manatees and dolphins. This is 1 of 3 units in the building but feels very private. It was very well stocked with lots of little details that were super handy and appreciated.

The home, property and amenities were all just as promised in the listing. The home was very clean and smelled wonderful. Beautiful setting on the canal where we were frequently able to watch manatees and dolphins. I have absolutely no complaints. I plan to return and won’t hesitate to rent the same home.

Manatee Magnet
This property is awesome and perfect for a couples get away. Conveniently nestled between a channel and the Gulf, we must have seen 20 manatee in 5 days. The only draw back is the bed. It's hard and the bedding is not comfortable. It made sleeping stressful. With this said, I would not hesitate to come back to this property at all and would perhaps buy or bring something to make the bed more comfortable.

Awesome Location if you enjoy waterfront views
I thoroughly enjoyed the property. I worked remote from the property and the Internet worked very well. I would take breaks from meetings and cast a few lines and caught snook from the dock. The beach is just across the street and it is very beautiful. You can walk the beach for many miles. The property manager was very easy to work with and wanted to assist in anyway. I highly recommend this location and would certainly stay here again.

Lots to like about this property, especially the canal.
We enjoyed our stay. We liked being on the canal, and we had coffee there each morning. We didn’t see any manatees, but lots of fish jumped. The rooms left something to be desired. The king-sized bed was very soft, too soft for our taste. Also, the toilet did not flush properly, making it necessary to use the plunger constantly. It seemed odd that there was only one roll of toilet paper, no backup.

Spacious one bedroom
This condo served us well for an extended weekend on LBK; we were only there at nighttime (it was overflow sleeping space for those who couldn’t fit in the family condo). Generally felt clean and everything seemed to be in good working condition. Only word of caution is heavy use of plug-in air fresheners. I think there were 4 or 5 in this space and it was overwhelming. If you have fragrance sensitivities, you may want to ask for those to be removed prior to arrival.

I think the couches need to be replaced, they seemed dirty. The bathroom was lovely, could use a shelf due to being small. Quiet beautiful area. It took only a few Minutes to walk to the beach.

Florida Fun!
A very comfortable, clean, Florida beach place to stay. Drank our coffee on the canal in the morning watching a manatee family one morning and a dolphin cruise the canal the next. The pool was warm and easy beach access. Great Stay!

Cute and clean
Very nice little rental. The entire complex and this unit was very clean, cute, and extremely enjoyable. I did not realize there is not an in unit washer and dryer, which was a negative, but that was my mistake. There is one across the street in a pinch, though. Overall, really enjoyed this quaint stay.
