Great get away
10.0 / 10.0
Our plan was to completely relax and enjoy the sunshine. We wanted to find a place that we did not have to leave the property unless we decided to do so. This place was exactly that. We were able to bring what we wanted with us to keep us from having to have the hassle of finding restaurants. The kitchen provided everything to be able to cook some very nice meals. The view from our living room of the (intracoastal), Lemon Bay was so full of wildlife. From watching the birds, manatees, dolphins and fish jumping, not to mention the beautiful sunrises each morning. The Kayaks that were provided was also fun to see the wildlife up close and personal. Before heading to the beach, we were able to pick up the chairs, umbrella, cooler and toys if we wanted that was all provided. The private access, 5 minute walk to our own beach was a lovely way to enjoy the surf and sunsets. Having trees to shade the sun was a plus for us. Coming back to Blue Island Inn from the beach and sitting pool side was as relaxing as it can get. We will definitely be coming back in the future.

I could set in the living room looking over the bay all day. The listing mistakenly lists 2 living rooms each with sleeper sofa, but it only has 1 living room. I figured that out by the pictures before we got there.
The employees managing the property are supper nice. The place was very clean. My daughter fished every night from 7pm to 8pm catching about 4 to 5 fish a night.
Place is located near beaches, good restaurants, and stores.

Absolutely loved this little 2 bedroom. Everything was exactly as described and more. Everything from the little goodie tray with extra soaps, teas, waters, etc. to fans (if needed) stowed neatly away under the beds. If we forgot something I can guarantee it was there if we needed it. You'll find everything you need for the beach from coolers to umbrellas and inside everything from seasonings to laundry soap was provided. It was totally unexpected but a pleasant surprise, we had no idea there was a private beach access! Every night we went down to watch the sunset and it was absolutely beautiful.

Sea Glass is a great little villa in a wonderful location directly on the bay and a short walk to the gulf beach. It is so nice to have both areas to relax and take in the water and sights. The pool is just the place to cool off after the beach or spending time on the fishing dock. The villa is well equipped, nicely decorated and very clean! Communication was excellent and any question was immediately answered. We would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful stay at the sea glass villa beautiful view of intracoastal waterway where my son spent a lot of time fishing from designated dock. A/c was perfectly cool and place was spotless. Wish we had more time . Quick walk to the beach for shell hunting a plus

We stayed four nights in this lovely spot. It is exactly as it appears in the photos. The view from the room was beautiful. The place was immaculate and stocked with all we needed. We especially enjoyed the pool and the bayside area. The sunrises were spectacular. It’s a short walk across the street to the beach for equally spectacular sunsets. Any requests we had were promptly answered. As lovely as the space was it’s small. It’s perfect for two people. There are larger units in the building we hope to check out on our next visit. It’s clear the management works hard to create a comfortable and inviting place.

Loved the place. Cute and couldn't be cleaner. Lots of amenities and could be a favorite getaway place for us. The only, only thing that was more inconvenience than anything was the number of LED lights in all the rooms. We like a nice dark room to sleep in and there were lights everywhere! I tried to cover most of them with towels. And the TV screen never shuts down completely either. Thanks for a quiet and peaceful couple of days.

The view is everything! When you factor in the ease of the experience it is so what you want in a quiet, beautiful stay in SWFL. It was just my mom and I and she is a local returning periodically to check in on her house as it’s being restored from hurricane Ian—almost done! Property management here is outstanding and the dolphin watching is awesome—even saw a shark! Pool could use resurfacing and signage is a bit over the top but from a frequent VRBO user, I highly recommend!

If you are looking for an extremely clean and quiet place to stay on Manasota Key, with beautiful views of the sunrise over Lemon Bay, then this is the place for you! A nice pool to relax in and a dock to fish from as well.
The bedrooms are cottage sized, as described on the website, with very comfortable beds.
I personally liked the washer/dryer right inside the unit.
The Property manager, Elena, is super friendly and was onsight daily. Very approachable and helpful.
I give Seaglass 5+ stars!!

We stayed in the Seaglass unit and had a very nice stay. The location was at the end of a road right on the intercoastal water. The area felt very safe. The property/street has a private access across the road to the beach. Pictures were very accurate. Easy check in process and no issues. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful time! We had private beach access which was incredible! The Seaglass had everything we could possibly need for the beach and our stay. We would come back again but we bought a house in nearby Englewood while we were there!

This place is a gem! The view of the bay welcomed us with a sunrise each morning. i would get my coffee and sit on the dock overlooking the bay. It was incredibly quiet and peaceful!
The place was clean and very very well stocked. There were plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas and wheel-carts for the beach. We enjoyed the pool, we even saw a few dolphins in the bay while hanging out.
Things to consider:
Beach access: The walk to the beach wasn't too bad, although it was a lot of work for us older ladies to wheel all the stuff (chairs, coolers, umbrellas, etc.) down a very long gravel driveway, followed by a narrow dirt path. It would not deter me from going back --the beach was worth it--but might be helpful for anyone with mobility issues.
Dining: You will need a car. You won't be able to easily walk to restaurants but there is lots of public parking. Well worth it to us since the location afforded so much peace and quiet.
We really enjoyed our visit and can't wait to go back to Englewood. It exceeded our expectations and was exactly the time away we needed. The owner is SUPER and very responsive so if you decide to stay here, you are in good hands!

Great location with beach access 5 minutes away. Clean and had every thing we needed.

My mother and her best friend were in awe the first morning when they woke up to the sunrise coming in the living room (I rented it for them and the place was a surprise). They are discussing booking a week next year there on their own. Everything was clean and had everything they needed and more. The environment was quiet so you could hear the water, birds, feel the breeze and we had the pool to ourselves the majority of the time. Great hosts with daily communication providing events/things to do around the area that may interest us. Best rental I’ve rented for my mom’s yearly trip and will definitely stay again!

Simply Wonderful!
My Mom, daughter and I spent one wonderful, quiet week at Sea Glass Villa. We had everything we needed in the apartment. All the amenities were great. The view was fantastic! We thoroughly enjoyed the pool and the beautiful, quiet walk to the beach. Manasota Key is a lovely place! Amy was wonderful to work with as well as her cleaning lady, Elana, who we had the joy of meeting. We would definitely go to the Blue Island Inn again! Thanks for making it a week of wonderful memories for my mom, daughter and myself.

Perfect condo for relaxing getaway
Beautiful views and amazing location! Condo was very quiet and relaxing. We enjoyed being able to walk 5 minutes to the beautiful beach, relax by the pool, and enjoy the kayaks in the bay. Being on the second floor we had an amazing view of the bay to watch the sunrise and wildlife including dolphins. The condo had everything we needed like beach supplies (chairs, umbrella, cooler) and was very clean. We can’t wait to go back!

Cute and comfortable
My husband and I enjoyed our stay. It was quiet even though the other places were rented, too. The bed was very comfortable. The condo has everything you could need. It doesn’t have central air, but the units it has plus the fans were plenty for my hot natured hubby. We didn’t have time for the pool or other backyard amenities, but they were enticing. We really enjoyed our stay! Thank you!

Quiet week with family
Very clean but very small. Beautiful views. A lot of rules about being quiet and couldn’t have visitors. It was fine because we had our children, but if it was just my husband and I, we would have wanted to swim at night, have friends that we know in Englewood over, probably make a little noise. There were a few too many rules for my liking. Very restrictive!

Easy rental, check in, and check out process.

We will return!
