A little about our family home, we have a lovely spacious house 3 BEDROOM 1 BATH PLUS A OUTDOOR SHOWER.
Our home is spacious and has a great room and a Billiard room. There is a guest cottage ( If you need additional space which is available for rent separately on this site it is a 1/1 #7001915 ) which was the original home on the property sits adjacent to the Beach House. This is our family home and we take great pride in both of them! The House and the Cottage sit independent on a large double lot and are in a excellent location being 150 feet from beach. It is very private and unique because of the location and all of the landscaping. We purchased the house several years ago from a local artist who had it for 32 years and have redone it while keeping it's Old Florida Beach House charm. It is a rare find on the key because of it's quite location in a residential neighborhood as well as its 2 lots give you lots of open area with botanical gardens making you feel like your in you own private beach compound. It is located 1/2 mile from the state park and 1/2 of a mile from the restaurants, bars with live entertainment and shops.
The BEST PART is you will find yourself a "stone's throw" 60 steps (150 ft) from a wide private beach on the Gulf of Mexico.
Since this is our family vacation home you will find it's like being in a friend’s home not a hotel. The home has also been completely redone is furnished like a home not like a rental. It has been renovated and decorated beyond any other home available for rent!! You will find everything you will need with the exception of a beach towel and your clothes. (ALL ROOMS HAVE SMART TV's AND WIRELESS INTERNET) Also this is the ONLY rental home that we know of with a BILLIARD ROOM, featuring a beautiful Brunswick drop pocket pool table.
NEED LESS SPACE? Our 1/1 beach cottage may be the place. Excellent location 150 ft to the beach and is available for rent separately on this site (sleeps 4)

Very nice and clean house. Price very reasonable. Steps away from the beach! Spoke with Scott when we arrived earlier than planned and he let us check in early on short notice. Awesome week with my family. I would stay here again. Thank you Scott!
4.9
Scott and Bryanna are absolutely amazing people and very understanding to our needs. Just what our family needed to get away together. Really enjoyed our time at this place. Thank you and we will definitely come back for a visit!
4.9
Close to the beach, great communication to the manager. Game room is a great bonus.
4.9
Perfect place for what my husband and I needed. Pool table was fun, shed full of beach toys. We didn't need to use our vehicle our entire stay - rode bikes when we went to dinner. Nice screened in porch for morning coffee. Excellent location, nice neighbors. Big screen TVs all worked easily! Host was super nice and helpful. Would highly recommend!
4.9
It was perfect for walking out on the beach and looking for sharks teeth. Plenty of room in house for us! Beautiful setting!
4.9
It was great! The only negative was one bathroom
4.9
I don’t know that I would advertise this place as a house. It’s more of cottage as there is another house connected to it that is also being rented out. Need to have a exterminator come out. Saw 4 palmetto bugs. Otherwise great place to go for the weekend.
4.9
This property was great because it was an easy one minute walk to the beach. The host has everything you could need and more especially for someone flying who can’t pack things like beach chairs and umbrellas. The little shed on the property was full of beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, beach toys and a convenient tote to help you transport everything to the beach. Host supplies plenty of beach towels too! The courtyard was beautifully done with plenty of outdoor seating. We personally enjoyed the screened in porch for late night conversation when the mosquitos tend to be on the prowl. The kitchen was stocked with plenty of utensils, pots and pans which was perfect for our family since we tried to eat/cook at the condo as much as possible to avoid eating out. There is a propane grill too! The condo is very spacious. The three rooms are all very private since they are located in their own separate spots in the condo. Each room also had its own tv. The television in the living room was massive which was great for watching college football on Saturday. Check in was super simple, as was check out. The host was very responsive and easy to voice any concerns to. Manasota Key itself was quaint and very private. The beach was not crowded and the water was still warm for October. We visited a couple restaurants for a date night: Lock N Key and Magnolias on the Bay. Highly recommend!

5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Short 2 minute walk to the beach. Lots of beach essentials for use in the shed. Plenty of towels so don’t waste space packing them. Beds are very comfortable. A/C worked great even in 100 degree July summer days. Pool table was a hit for our teens. Plenty of pots & pans for cooking. Outdoor gas Grill worked great for steaks, burgers, & hot dogs. Coffee pot is a regular drip pot & filters are provided. Restaurants & Circle K are a 2 minute drive, 5-10 minute bike ride, or 15-20 minute walk away. Screened porch & outdoor sitting area is a perfect chill spot. Have to give a shout-out to the cleaning crew. House was immaculate. We already have some future dates in mind for next time!

Great amenities and location. Scott was very helpful with recommendations for the area. This little slice of heaven is just what we needed before life got busy with back to school. Hope to visit again!
4.9
Scott was very easy to work with! If you want a quiet place that’s kid friendly and right next to the beach then this is the place to stay! We will definitely be back!
4.9
Absolutely loved the house! And really only 60 steps to the beach. No problems with the neighbors in beach every one was very friendly, plenty of places to eat less than 1 mile away. Had a really relaxing and enjoyable time. The owners are on top of everything!
4.9
We fell in love with the location and home! Everything was perfect for our stay steps away from the beach. Screened in porch with the fan was amazing to relax after a day at the beach. We hope to make this a regular visit!
4.9
Best place to be on Manasota Key! Outside shower. Beautifully landscaped, perfectly designed for privacy. Figs, Palm Trees, Pine, Hibiscus. All the necessities plus beach chairs, umbrellas, floats, and towels. 19 year old daughter says…you did good Mom. Priceless. Scott is awesome. Cannot wait to come back next year. What would I change? I would stay longer. Zero issues. House maintains its cool throughout the day and has a positive vibe. Turtle nests are marked on the beach. Blue water, white sands. Perfect trip with my adult children. Thank you Scott.

Scott was easy to work with and let us have a late check out
4.9
This was our second time renting here after a wonderful time a few years ago. Even better than we remembered! Literally steps to the beautiful gulf beach ( where I caught several Pompano we cooked on grill at the house) a barn packed full of bikes and all kinds of beach gear made for great days, several nearby indoor/outdoor restaurants that you can walk or ride the free trolly to made the days complete. Scott is a superb host, not only checking in with a text every couple of days to see if we needed anything, he even offered to let us stay over when my wife was too ill to travel home. You simply won't find a better beach getaway or a better host!
4.9
Great house, great location, and the house was everything and more than expected. I must say this is the first time we have left from vacation and everyone was actually in tears. Scott was an awesome host. Great communication and an awesome info booklet waiting for us in the kitchen that told us everything we needed to know about the house and the island. We will definitely be back, but it will for surely be for more than 4 days. This is the house you are looking for if you want an awesome vacation!
4.9
Great host. Easy to contact and very responsive. The house is on a nicely shaded lot just a hundred feet or so from the beach. On what I consider to be the quiet south side of Manasota Key. We had a great time relaxing in the evening with several rounds of billiards. Highly recommend.
4.9
This property is a gem. Englewood has small town charm on the beach. The Beachcomber property is within walking distance to many restaurants and bars. We came in December and the weather was perfect (highs near 80 everyday). The beach is not crowded. It made for a very relaxing long weekend with our friends. The house has everything we needed and is very clean and comfortable. Scott is a wonderful host.
4.9
Property was nice; great location; great communication with the owner. Would definitely recommend this property if you are looking for a beach getaway.
4.9
This house was great for our stay because of it's proximity to the beach, but the biggest complaint was that it is only 1 bathroom and is listed as 2. The owner claimed the outdoor shower spigot is why it comes across as 2 bathrooms and VRBO won't allow him to change it. The price should reflect that.
4.9
The beach house was perfect for our group! We had everthing we needed for the beach. Manasota key is one of my favorite islands. We will be back.

Our family visited just after hurricane Ian, and this property was essentially unscathed. Scott was such a great host, and communicated with us in a very timely manner to let us know we were still able to stay after the hurricane. The house was just a bit crowded with 3 kids and 4 adults, but i was fully aware of that going in. Next time, I will probably choose to do both the 3 bedroom and one bedroom for the extra room. The pool table was a big plus, as the weather kept us away from the beach a couple days. Absolutely love the patio area outside. Relaxing in the Adirondack chairs while grilling was great. Look forward to going back down when things are a little more normal.
4.9
Everything was convenient and close by.
4.9
This was an amazing quick weekend getaway and the property was very charming and clean! Comfy beds and sheets and cozy couch and fun pool table! Excellent location and just a short walk to a beautiful private beach! Lots of great places to eat within a couple miles of the property. Will definitely be staying here again! Definitely a Home away from home!
4.9
Great house with 3 bedrooms each having a TV, so all could enjoy down-time. Great outdoor shower. Enjoyed the pool table. Got up for Sunrise, and Turtle Patrol was excavating a nest at the beach. Watched 7 baby turtles make it to the surf. Walk to Stump pass was beautiful, and so peaceful. This place is a treasure. Can't wait to go back.
4.9
The house was a super cute little property really close to the beach. We just had to walk down a little path. It was clean, and there were beach-y things ready to use (towels, chairs, etc).
The only thing is the 2nd bathroom listed is an outdoor shower head for rinsing off after the beach. It was a tough week for my family to share one bathroom.
We still really enjoyed our stay!

Weekend getaway
We enjoyed the location, and loved having the beach in a short walking distance. The home was cozy, we felt at home. Our family had a fantastic time. Thank you for being a great host.

Bungalow just as described! Perfect distance from the ocean - umbrellas & chairs available for use in the shed. And, had tons of beach towels for your use! Crazy neighbor lady at beach harassed anyone that sat chairs on “her property that she owns to water line”but we just sat in the walkway area down to shore. Plenty of beach to enjoy! Tons of shells & we found lots of sharks teeth too.
Bungalow was perfect size for us with 2 adults & 2 teens. I wouldn’t recommend for much more than 4 (unless it’s small kids) because of single bathroom but it’s WAY better than a hotel!!! Each bedroom had own TV also. Teens loved the pool table!
There was mouse in ceiling of one bedroom (could hear it at night) & we advised owner & he was going to set traps.
Bungalow had great beds, soft comfy sheets & had a great supply of soft bath towels & wash clothes (not the cheap crappy kind).
Loved walking on beach late at night (after 10pm) & seeing the sea turtles come in, make nest & lay eggs & go back out to sea!
Stumpy’s free golf cart shuttle was quick & easy to area attractions like Stump’s Pass. Tip them!
I’m a travel agent & have traveled a lot over the years & this bungalow was definitely a great find for us!
