About this house rental

The home is well-stocked and ideally located between the public beach and Stump Pass State Park on the beach side of Gulf Blvd. Stumpy’s “free golf cart ride” stops at the home for island transportation.

Fossilized shark's teeth are a favorite find for beachcombers, and you'll find many among the shells. Snorkel in the clear water for sand dollars and tropical treasures. Set up your umbrella and enjoy peaceful sunsets undisturbed, away from the public beach.
Kick back, chill out and grill. All you need is food, drinks and your bathing suit and we supply the fun:
*Smart T.V.’s in every room
*High speed internet
*Beach Cruisers
*Kayaks
*Hammock
*Outdoor Fire Pit
*BBQ

We would stay here again! It is important to note that there is a short walk down the road to the beach. We are used to staying at beachfront properties, and it was no trouble at all to walk to the beach and enjoy our coffee. We were very worried about all the private property signs on the beach based on reviews we read. We had no trouble at all finding a spot on the beach. We were impressed by the cleanliness here and we had a great time! It’s a perfect place to stay for a small family!

My wife, adult daughter, and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property was just as advertized. It was clean with many conveniences. The beds and couch are comfortable. The washer and dryer are quite nice. Most importantly for the summer Florida heat, the ari conditioner kept things cool inside. The beach is clean, uncrowded, and close. There is an outdoor shower for washing off after the beach, and the back door leads to a bathroom for thorough showering. Lazy Dayz is highly recommended.

This was our second time at the property and it was a great stay. The renovations/updates were nice and made for comfortable accommodations. Between the rain and tree debris we couldn’t spend as much time outside using the house’s amenities as we had hoped, but we took advantage of the beach as much as possible. We are grateful for this consistently comfortable home away from home in Manasota Key. Thank you!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Convenient to restaurants and beach. A little awkward for two couples with the second bath near the living area and second bedroom at the back of the house. We will stay again!

A wonderful stay!! The house looks just like the pictures. Plenty of supplies for living and “beaching”. A quick walk down the lane to a beautiful beach. Communication was easy too. We highly recommend and would return.

We had such a great time! It was the absolute best location for us. We have small kids and a dog so it was nice that the beach was a very short, safe walk without any traffic to worry about. If you went right you were a short walk away to the state park, which was great because parking at the state park was very limited. We had a great time walking the dog through the trails and seeing well-preserved old Florida. IF you went left you were a short walk from the main beach area with lots of restaurants to choose from and a park. On Sunday night we walked down to the main beach in time to see the sunset drum circle that was also very family friendly. If you don't like to walk there is a stop for the trolley right outside. When we called to use it once it took the driver less than 5 minutes to pick us up. The beach house was very clean and nice. The A/C system was amazing and I don't know what magic they weaved to keep all the bugs away. Even when we were sitting outside I didn't feel one mosquito. An additional bonus is surrounding the back patio there are lots of beautiful trees and plants instead of just another condo building you may find at other beaches. The beds were very comfortable and linens and towels were nice as well. They had plenty of beach toys for the kids including boogie board, skim board, and kayaks. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

Check-in was an ease! Debbie was very helpful and called early on the day of check-in to let us know this house was ready whenever we wanted to check-in. We literally had everything we needed! The bikes were a huge hit for our teenage daughters. We had a new grill and the umbrella for the outside dining was wonderful! We were able to shower off after the beach in the outside shower with hot & cold water. Previous reviews mention the beach issue with a particular house. We simply followed the signs posted on the beach to ensure we did "trespass" on her property. We had no problems. We will be back for sure! This was perfect for our family and having our local family come to visit us during the day.

Nice cozy House close to the beach. My family enjoyed using the bikes, firepit, kayaks, and beach chairs that were available. We had an issue with the A/C not working when we arrived. Called the owners who responded immediately that they would have their A/C guy investigate. We went to dinner and they called before our meal showed up that it was fixed. By the time we returned the A/C was indeed working and the house cooled off.

This property is everything advertised and more. When they say they have everything you need they mean it. No need to bring beach chairs, beach towels or toys. Everything about the place is homey and comfortable. Dan and Linda are very friendly hosts and respond to your inquiries immediately. There is also ample parking for a boat or multiple vehicles. The location is absolutely perfect. You are just steps from the beach and within walking distance to the bars and restaurants. We had such a good time and will definitely be back.

While this trailer home has been nicely updated on the inside and has the basic amenities, this listing would bring more value for the price with some additional upgrades. The property has very little landscaping, the tv setups are really confusing, the entry code was incorrect, there were no kitchen basics such as salt, pepper and cooking oil, and the kayak trolleys dont work. On the plus side, the beds are really comfortable and its a short walk to a spectacular beach. Beach access is confusing with lots of signs about private property, and this should have been mentioned in the listing somewhere as well.

"Lazy days" cabin was perfect for my family's getaway. Steps from the beach on a quiet island. Highly recommend this place. We will probably be back someday!

We loved staying at your property. Everything was updated, comfortable and felt like a home. The location was perfect. The beach is right there. Plus, the Sand Bar is so close, it was a quick and easy walk up the street. Even if you don’t want to walk, you can always hop a right on Stumpy’s Free ride.

Stayed Jan 1- Feb 1, 2023 after IAN. The owners did an awesome job with repairs getting the place back in shape. Lovely home, very comfortable for 2 adult couples. Had everything we needed and more. Nice rear outdoor area and front porch with rocking chairs. Easy parking. Nice Owners and very responsive to the few little issues that came up. A healthy walk to the restaurants but not too far. Easy 10 minute walk to Stump Pass on the road. Did not have to cross the street to get to the beach, just 5 houses away. Master BR had private bath. The couple staying in the 2nd bedroom at the end of the hall had to use the bath directly off the dining room. That was the only negative thing for us because at night you had to walk past the master, through kitchen and dining room to get to the bath. Probably not a problem for a family. Nice size showers and good storage. We were the first in the rental so everything was new and the beds were nice and firm. Stumpy has a pickup right out front. We all had a very nice relaxing stay at Lazy Days. Thanks Dan & Linda

Husband & I rented property for 3 weeks in Feb 2023. Interior was recently painted. Paint was splattered on interior windows, floors and kitchen counters. Floors were filthy. No mop or bucket. My husband washed floors on hands and knees. Stove top was covered with grease which I cleaned. Stainless steel appliances needed cleaning. No SS cleaner so I used Dawn & wiped dry. The cordless vacuum cleaner was filthy as well. I told the owner he needs to deep clean unit. The master bedroom mattress was very comfortable. We were grossly overcharged given the condition of the property and will never return.

I and my family members so thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely home. The decor fit the beach theme. We were just walks from the beach. We were able to see the sunrise and sunset. Any request made was accommodated promptly. A very peaceful stay. I would highly recommend all age groups to stay here.

First time using VRBO. Advertised as "just steps from the beach" with photos of kayaks, bicycles, a hammock and patio furniture. It was close to the beach and the beach is private but only for the houses adjacent to it. Everyone else is trespassing. The bikes were tied up and covered with a tarp making it difficult to use them. The hammock was impossible to climb onto. There were no straps to attach the kayaks to the dollies and the patio table was covered with green slime. With the service fee, cleaning fee and taxes the cost almost doubled. We were expected to do some of the clean-up even with a $150.00 cleaning fee. We used the public beach about a half mile away. We enjoyed ourselves, but not as fully as we expected.. we didn't call the property owners because we did not want to spend our time dealing with it.

Quick, Relaxing, Fun Get-A-Way with Great Little Extras.
Only the rain kept us in on Friday night, as we wanted to kayak. But the house had other great entertainment for us... TV, Books, Board Games, puzzles... So we did enjoy the beach on Saturday and found loads of little sharks teeth. This was a lovely property.

Amazing location!!
This is a beautiful property! Everything you need for your beach vacation. We enjoyed having the bikes, kayaks, BBQ grill and other amenities of the home. There is plenty of space to relax and enjoy the space. The beach is steps away from this property. We made sure to sit closer to the water and did not have any issues with having space on the beach with the locals. Enjoyed Lemon Bay as much as the ocean. We were able to see manatees, dolphins, small sharks, sea turtles, starfish and the list goes on an on. Love this property!! Worth the stay.

GREAT HOME! but......
Thank you to the owners for providing this beautiful home. We were there for the Memorial Day weekend, the house was very clean and all the amenities were amazing. However, we had problems finding a place to enjoy our beach days, the current situation with the people who have front beach homes are declaring PRIVATE and stating that their DEED goes into the water ("that was ridiculous") I have pictures of the owners on the beach blocking our access and also treating us to call the police. It was very frustrating because of the holiday weekend and all the other rental houses off the waterfront could not have enough room for everybody on the pathway. That made it very difficult and frustrated for us to put down the chairs and umbrellas.
Because we only can take time off over the holidays I don't think I would choose this location anymore because of these issues with the front ocean owner's claims.
Besides all that the house is great so is the location. That is why my overall review is 4 stars.
Wishing the next renters the best of luck and hopefully, the situation gets addressed better with the county and this insane situation gets better for the homes that rent off the beach.
