The place is steps to a beautiful beach. Property was well kept and owner was very helpful.

We stayed in the 1/1 bungalow, which is all we needed. Scott, the host came by the morning after we got there and he was super friendly and helpful! He even invited us in to show us the big house, which we will be booking next time when we bring grandkids down! Beatific area, neighborhood, and very shirt walk to quite beach where we found an abundance of shark teeth and shells! WE WILL BE COMING BACK! THANK YOU SCOTT!

Perfect place for a couple. Close to beach and has all the accessories needed for the beach.

Had a great time with granddaughter on the beach even with record high temperatures..

This is the second time we have stayed here. We love it. The place fits and suits our needs. It was clean, neat and stocked! The location is amazing. You would be hard pressed to find a better value. We will Be back again.

Place was very cute and much brighter than pictured. Scott called to check on us several times and had great suggestions on places to go. Would come back here for sure! You will love it!!

The house is in an excellent location, steps to the beach. Scott was very quick in addressing any questions we had about the house. We really enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful property, very clean home, comfortable bed, A/C and fans work good. Beach was great, clear water and not crowded. Small but just right for 2 of us! Family staying in other rentals so we only had breakfast there. Wonderful time!

My husband and I spent a week at this cottage for our anniversary. Check in was easy and it was very clean and amply stocked with everything we needed for the week. Area is quiet and peaceful and we truly felt like we were in paradise. The owner was very nice and gracious and checked in with us to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. Would highly recommend this property and it’s adjoining unit. We will most definitely be returning. Thank you Scott for making our anniversary week such and wonderful and memorable experience!

When we arrived we immediately noticed the smaller cottage we rented was not clean. The unit was left opened and key and lockbox were broken. Coffee grounds left in coffeemaker, floors were dirty, kitchen counter not wiped down, silverware not washed thoroughly. The couch that was to be used was old and when you pulled out the sleeper bed it was a old stained mattress full of sand and shells. It was not useable. The blinds in the bedroom are not private and you can see right in the room from the house right next door. I called owner and advised the unit was left opened key was broken and reported the dirtiness and that we could not stay in the unit and we would have to make other arrangements for a place to stay. He offered to bring a blow up mattress but sleeping on the floor was not an option since the floors looked like they haven’t been cleaned for awhile and as much money paid who wants to sleep on the floor on a blow up mattress. The unit does have an old cottage feel but a bit dingy which would be fine if it was cleaner and you like that vibe. . He did ask me the next day to advise him of the issues so he could discuss with his cleaning lady. I responded with the issues and asked if he could refund me for some of the stay. He did not respond after that. The large house seems to be the good reviews on this site. The small unit is the one that seems to get the bad reviews and most reviews I read were accurate of the smaller unit. This could be a decent place if the furniture was clean, unit was cleaner and a little brighter.

This cottage was perfect for our 4 night stay. Very close beach access; plenty of beach gear to use. Quiet, safe side street. Cottage had air conditioning that cooled the place quickly. The only negative we have is that the furniture is dated; couch was very uncomfortable to sit on. That would not stop us from staying there again, however.

What a fantastic little place. Everything you need, umbrella, chairs, cooler, beach towels... bring your suit and take a few steps to the sand and shore. Shark's teeth are just waiting to be found. This little house was comfortable, clean and very reasonable for a perfect much needed vacation. Thank You Scott for everything!

This is obviously an older property that has been refurbished. Very clean but maintenance is could be a little better. Quiet neighborhood. Beach nearby but not in view as accurately represented in the description.

Nice place, as described, and the beach is only a few steps away!

Excellent overall. Scott was easy to reach and very responsive to questions. Short walk to the beach and great sunsets a definite plus! Unit was comfortable and clean and had everything we needed in the kitchen.

Very close to the ocean.Scott ,the owner, was always available to talk to. Quiet side street.The cottage had everything that was needed to cook with.Tropical like surroundings.We will be staying there again. Joe Steiner

It was so relaxing. Walks to the beach are so nice. Perfect spot to vacay!

The cottage is literally steps away from the beautiful beach of Manasota Key. Even after IAN everything was in order. Love the location because of proximity to bars and restaurants. The property is clean and extremely well kept. I highly recommend !

Property as described. Good communication with owners. I checked watching sea turtles hatch of my bucket list! Amazing sunsets. Short walk to the beach with umbrella and chairs supplied. Thank you!

Great overall experience

The furnishings in the house could be updated, but they are clean and serviceable. The outdoor spaces and landscaping was amazing. The owners provide space to relax and cook outdoors while enjoying a tropical oasis.

The sunsets were spectacular! Manasota Key is on the Gulf Coast. Lots of Sea Turtle nests. Out little cottage was not on the beach but a short walk. Beach was mostly empty as this was the off season (but hot). We had some issues we discussed with the owner but will not put here. Very quiet neighborhood. Plenty of places to eat whether on the Key or mainland. We landed at Ft Myers although Punta Gorda is closer. Centrally located to Everglades (tours of Mangroves) and Sarasota, Venice. Suggest LightHouse Cafe, Sanibel Island, Sharkeys (Venice), KeKe's for breakfast (like First Watch but better).

Worth every penny. Small unit with only one bed. Very close to beautiful beach.

the location was great super close to a lot of great resturaunts with live music. they had a lot of beach equipment like chairs, umbrellas, and floats to use which we really appreciated. overall it was a good time.

Property exactly as described. Definitely would stay here again. 10/10

Perfect old Florida feel cottage. I went on this trip solo and it was a nice little cottage.

Nice little staycation! Owners very accommodating! Will be back!

This was the perfect casual getaway for our anniversary. Bungalow had everything we needed including beach chairs, towels, umbrella and a cooler. The beach was private and literally steps away. The water is gorgeous hues of aqua and there are shells everywhere. The full kitchen enabled us to cook meals in, although several good restaurants are close by. Unit was clean and parking was close to unit. Our host Scott was very communicative and accommodating even when we had a change to our reservation.

Overall it was a good experience. House was clean and had everything as advertised. Easy access to restaurants and other amenities. The only problem was beach access. We were not sure where our "private" beach was as most of it was posted with no trespassing signs. Also cable TV was only in the front area, not in the bedroom.

We enjoyed our 3 nights so much! Cottage was very nice and clean. 2 giant TVs and all you need for a beach getaway. VRBO charged us for 3 guests and there was only us 2. Need a refund of $50 please!! Scott okayed it. Said it should come from you. Thanks!

All you need to relax at the beach. Chair, towels, umbrellas, etc. Great for a couple, even with a small dog.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week in this small cosy cottage. Comfortable bed. Well equipped kitchen ( but no wine glasses…Scott says they are coming). Best parts: very quiet neighborhood , a two minute walk to the beach and wonderful sunsets !
