This place has everything you need for a great vacation! perfect location (very short walk to the beach), quiet neighborhood, nicely appointed apartment with great kitchen, nice bathroom, good towels, 2 bikes, a nice grill, lovely back patio with great Florida vegetation. Manasota Key is the best place! beautiful blue, clear water! Close to civilization if you need it but you can also stay with the island vibe. Great place to ride bikes...took a 10-12 mile every day.

This house has everything you need. It was clean, comfortable, 3 min walk to the beach, the patio has an awesome area for bbq, a great hammock, 2 bicycles and a great table to enjoy a great afternoon. The kitchen has everything you may need. It is really close to the 2 main restaurants in Manasota Key. We would definitely book this beautiful house in the future. The communication with Lisa was very easy and their instructions at the house were really helpful. Thank you!

Lauren's place was spectacular!! So incredibly clean and neat It has EVERYTHING you need. When we got there after a long trip from Chicago, she had stocked the fridge with milk, OJ, water, tea, eggs, 1/2 and 1/2 etc. The pantry had coffee, sugar, etc. It was SO nice not to have to go back out that afternoon to go to the store. The place is very spacious. We had to conduct a few meetings and there was plenty of room for the 10 adults and the 4 kids sat on the sun porch and played their games or read. It is just a block over to the beach access. I really hate to say how wonderful it is because we are going to need to be down there once a month through the end of the year and I want it to be available when I need it!! Communication with Lauren was easy and checking in was a breeze. You won't regret staying here!

Thank you for providing us with such a generous amenities and a beautiful home for our wonderful family vacation. We will definitely be staying with you in the future. Great location great price great hostess. This place is a prime location and will keep us coming to Englewood to stay for vacations to come.

We had a fantastic stay. Everything was better than advertised. Lauren was extremely friendly and the place was spotless. The breakfast food in the fridge was an extra special touch.

What a gem! So much roomier and cuter than the listing suggests, and super clean. The Britta water filter and breakfast items and well stocked kitchen were so well thought out and provided all we needed for a great family getaway.

Lauren was an incredible host! The property was SO perfect for a weekend getaway! Very spacious and I definitely felt like I got the best bang for my buck! Thank you!!!

This was a great getaway!

Laurens accommodations are top shelf! I would highly recommend staying here if you are planning a visit to Manasota Key!

Nice quiet location right by the beach. A short drive into the main town and a short drive or walk to restaurants. The place was clean and comfortable and had breakfast. I would definitely stay here again.

Great experience at the condo! It was very easy to find and the on-site manager was very accommodating and helpful when we arrived. House was extremely well-stocked with linens, blankets, beach towels and everything we needed to cook our meals during the week. While there's no direct beach view from the condo itself, it's just a quick walk to the coast - again, very conveniently located. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely recommend!

The reservation process was very easy and Jack is great to deal with. The condo was clean and in a great location. Kitchen amenities are ample and we ended up cooking all meals in with no problems. The community pool and public grounds of this complex are very nice and livable for outdoor cooking or just relaxing.

Great beach condo, you are practically on the beach. The condo is very well equipped with everything you could need for an extended stay. Kitchen is as nice as the pictures. Eating seats 4 around the table and 2 by the bar. We were 5. Grandma, 2 kids and us and we fit great. One more would have fit on the trundle. The kids obviously wanted the sleeper sofa in the living room (with the large flat screen) while grandma got her privacy. The pool across the road by the bay side was heated. Kids loved that in January. Will definitely come back if we head to Fort Myers area next time. Thanks Jack, and thanks for excellent communications!

This place was a great setup for being so small, had a beautifully renovated and well equipped kitchen and was close to the beach and in town areas. Our family of four (with two toddlers enjoyed) our stay.

Jack provided quick responses to our contacts and his listing is an accurate representation of the property. We rented kayaks from Allure for the weekend. They delivered the kayak to the unit. Kayaking is a great way to see the key, wildlife and for shelling. We wish we had a few more days. If you're looking for a great relaxed, sunny getaway, This is a super option!

Jack Hudkins was an excellent host. His condo is just as described. It's well kept and very clean and looks just like the photos. It's only a very brief walk to the Gulf of Mexico and just another short walk across the street to Lemon Bay. It has a nice pool on the bay side and on the Gulf side an area for grilling and picnicing. Unfortunately we didn't make use of these facilities as we were on Manasota Key for a family wedding. The location is perfect -- just a short walk to many of the popular restaurants and bars on the Key. This condo is highly recommended -- it's a perfect spot!

Very comfortable condo! It had everything we needed to enjoy our week's stay. It was off season, so we practically had the place and beach to ourselves! The beach was a short walk away. Local restaurants were very good. Quaint area!

Our stay in the Gulf side Condo was a pleasant experience. The condo was clean, well appointed, and conveniently located. The beach on Manasota Key was very nice and gave us a chance to add to our collection of sharks teeth.

We had a family reunion on the beach and the condo served as a perfect venue to enjoy with all of our loved ones.

Espacio perfecto, limpio, a mts del mar. Cómodo . Todo perfecto!

The host was very accommodating and everything was better than expected. The units were just re-done and very comfortable. The entire unit was extremely clean which is good but it peaked our curiosity so we looked into every nook and cranny but it was flawlessly clean. Marilyn was a fantastic host and very professional. The location was excellent and we would certainly consider a return.

Marilyn was great, the unit was beautiful and exactly like the pictures! There are even lounge chairs to take to the beach. We had a great time I would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful apartment steps from the beach, super clean and comfortable. I went with my kids and had am amazing time, watching the stars at night and waking up with our toes in the sand! Quiet location, you have the beach for yourself! They provide beach chairs. Thanks Marylin!

This apartment is very clean, apparently newly remodeled as everything is quite new. All worked well. Walk right out to beach. This unit does not have a water view but did not expect that. Comfortable. Really a great place. Marilyn made everything very easy. Nice beach, not crowded.

Beautiful place, 15 steps from the beach. If you want a nice beachy yet modern place to stay, look no further.

Thank you, Lisa, for a great week at the beach. We enjoyed staying at your duplex unit in Englewood. We found it to be clean and conveniently located for access to beaches and restaurants. We enjoyed morning runs and long walks as well as looking for treasures on the beach. Recommended!

You'll love this place because of these three reasons: 1. Clean! 2. Close to the ocean. 3. Quiet for reading, walks, viewing sunsets without all the noise of a crowded beach.

Awesome!! Affordable! Great location and value! We had a great relaxing week! Will be back soon!!

Worth every penny!

Wonderful home for a family vacation. Very clean and well appointed, and steps away from the beach.

/

Lisa's place is freshly remodeled and perfectly located-:). It's the best place for chilling at the beach or going to Stump park which is only steps away. Love the screen porch to listen to the ocean while enjoying a glass of wine. She allows dogs which made my precious Shelby very happy-:) thank again for a wonderful visit

Best Airbnb I've stayed in! Lisa is extremely quick to respond & more than accommodating. The unit was perfectly clean and exceeded our expectations. I will be staying here again.

Great place to stay! Clean, comfortable, and only a few steps to the beach. Incredible getaway for me and my girlfriend.

This is a beautiful condo steps away from a peaceful, pristine beach. There are bountiful restaurants about a mile down the road. The kitchen is very well stocked - it has a full-sized refrigerator, coffee maker, ice trays - the works. The towels were wonderfully fluffy and smelled like heaven. The bed was comfortable, and I appreciated the full-length mirror in the bedroom. I was not made aware before check in how to enter the condo, so upon arrival I tried to contact Marilyn through the app, but was not successful. Therefore, I called the number in the app to request entry info. I was given the info but it was made clear that I should not call again, to use the app instead. A bit later, I texted through the app to ask how to access wifi and I did not receive a response for 2.5 hours. Despite communication issues, I would definitely stay here again and would recommend this outstanding space to others.

Marilyn was welcoming and check in was easy. Location is unbelievable. Steps to the beach. Just what we needed.

Right on the beach, nice to watch the sunset. Just walk right outside and you're in the ocean.

The rooms were clean and beautiful! I didn't expect every thing to look as good in person as it did in the photos, but it was! Marilyn was incredibly helpful and kind. From day one we started making plans for "when we go back". It was a lovely, relaxing vacation!

Marilyn was very helpful and responsive. Location was terrific for us. Very easy to come and go. Simple but comfortable apartment. We would certainly return.

We were looking for a quiet beachfront place. Mailyn’s place is perfect. Just feet from the beach, very very clean. Every single appliance works, the place looks like new, very simple and sober decoration. You don’t need anything else. The only thing I’d improve, not being critical is more beach “stuff” like umbrellas, seats, etc. Other than that, the place looks exactly like the pics and is away from crowds. Go for it, you’ll not regret it.

This place is right on the beach and a great value for how close to the water you really are! Very clean units and seem to be fairly recently remodeled as they look brand new. Full kitchen and nice space throughout. We were in #3, a one bedroom unit. Nice little patio area in back to eat or have a drink and watch the waves roll in.. Marilyn is easy to reach and is often right there on the property making her guests feel welcomed. Thank you Marilyn, we will definitely see you again soon!

We would love to give this a bad review so that others don't book it, saving it for ourselves. But that wouldn't be fair on Louise who has really put in a big effort to make Sandy Toes better "than just a room on the beach". The entire place is clean and exactly as described, steps from the beach. In the kitchen we had everything you need, if you want to cook on vacation that is! Everything was perfect. 5 stars from us and we look forward to going back.

We LOVED our vacation at Sandy Toe's #5. Don met us right on arrival and was so kind and helpful during our entire stay! The unit had more amenities than we had even imagined; the unit was beautiful and not a complaint from any of us. The six of us were able to stay comfortably without feeling as if we were on top of one another. The beach access was perfect, especially for the kids and my mother-in-law to get to and from the shore without much effort. The patio was a favorite as it is such an adorable set up! The place was quiet and relaxing and everything that the family needed to enjoy our vacation. The state park that was close by was definitely a favorite place for us to go and it was within short walking distance as well. We will definitely go back!

A fantastic stay as always. The owner, Louise, has excellent communication and the place is amazing. We come back every year and it never disappoints. A perfect beach getaway...

This house is truly amazing! It's much more beautiful than the pictures on Airbnb. The master bedroom is very spacious and the bed and shower are so comfortable. The private beach is like a dream came true; the sound of the waves, the dolphins swimming by and the sand is covered with shells and shark teeth. We enjoyed so much searching for those and we brought a few as a souvenir. We celebrated New Years Eve at Sandy Toes and we will never forget this moment of complete happiness! We loved everything about this place. Drinking a beer and seeing the dolphins jump brought a tear to my eyes. The kids had difficulties leaving, because they loved the house and the pool. There are so many toys they enjoyed themselves with. The kayak and paddleboard were also fun! Dan, the caretaker, is a very friendly guy and easy to communicate with. Hopefully we will come back one day. Until than we have a priceless memory. Highly recommended!!!

We absolutely loved our trip to Sandy Toes Unit 5! I can not say enjoy great things about the property and location. We will 100% be returning! Thank you for a memorable trip!

My family and I had a great time at Sandy Toes. We stayed in number 5 and it was plenty of room for my 3 kids and my parents too. The kitchen was fully equipped and even had a slow cooker. Everything was very clean and the apartment was nicely decorated. My kids had a great time here and enjoyed the beach and the pool. The weather was perfect on the days we were here and we could not have asked for more. My husband and I are already talking about planning another trip. No complaints.

What a wonderful place to stay. Beautifully updated and very clean. We had an exceptionally great time. Met some others staying there, all friendly yet not intrusive. Don was wonderful and always willing to help in any way. The kitchen was full of just about everything you could think of and more! The master bedroom and en suite was an oasis. The other rooms had plenty of closet space if needed (we only used the master). The laundry room and extra storage had little tidbits left behind but open for all to use. One thing to note for those traveling with a larger group (we were just 2), there isn't a dining table inside for more than 2 (although plenty of space for 6 to eat around the couch) and their is plenty of space to eat outside! We grilled; we kayaked, we walked on the beach and biked through town...and I used the paddle board too! Paddle boarding in the ocean is challenging with the waves but oh, so fun! We can't wait to go back! Thank you for providing a wonderful place to vacation!

This place is Paradise! The beach is literally out of the back door where we found lots of shark teeth! They provide a wide variety of beach toys for the kids or us adults to play with. the heated pool is also wonderful to be at and it felt like our private one as there were hardly any other people enjoying it. the kitchen utilities provided cover all your needs. the beds are super comfy. this place is really one of a kind and we hope to come back!

Joel was an excellent host, check in on us, making sure we were comfortable and had everything we need it. Lovely place, well equipped. Best vacation ever, we did not wanted to leave! We will book again!!

This is our second visit and Joel and Diana are amazing hosts. Very caring, happy to help, gave us great info of the area. Very quiet area, steps to the ocean, yet close to restaurants and all water sports rentals. The apartment is well equipped with everything you need, even bicycles!. The outside patio has a grill, so we grilled most of our meals. We loved it! We have made The Beach Bums Paradise our only Vacation destination. Thank you Joel & Diana!!!

This place was amazing. We loved the house and it's Location. Loved loved loved!

This small beach home was perfect for our family of four. Our two girls had one side of the split plan home while my husband and I had the other. The space is as pictured: minimally and cohesively furnished. The kitchen is well stocked with dishwasher soap, dishes, pots/pans, coffee maker, and more. Would have been nice to have some condiments available for all the cooking we did and some storage for our leftovers but that's splitting hairs. Having a washer and dryer with two kids and daily trips to the beach was a big plus. The beach is a 5 min walk across the street and perfect for us! Ann was even gracious enough to accommodate a late check out so our baby could take her after lunch nap. We will recommend this property to others interested in vacationing on this coast.

We've spent a wonderfull week in Ann's house. The house is well furnished, very clean, and fully complies with the description and pictures. The house is very well located with the marina at the end of the garden (were we saw many dolphins just few meter from us!) and 100m from the sea shore. Our local contact has been very helpfull and came in less than half an hour to solve our wifi acces issue. We warmly recommend Ann's place.

We enjoyed our stay very much. The duplex is well appointed and only a few minutes walk to the beach.

Perfect location, waterfront and just minutes away from beach. Spacious house. Saw dolphins right outside from the back yard!

This is our second trip to Ann's house we liked it so much! Ann is very quick to respond to queries and is accommodating. The location is perfect; on bay side and quick walk to the Gulf. We'll be back again I'm sure! Englewood is a great place to visit!

This is a small, comfortable unit in a great location. It is across the street from a beautiful beach and walking distance to fun restaurants and bars. We liked the tile floors which where easy to keep clean. I appreciated that cleaning supplies were left in the unit so one didn't have to go out and buy them. We had a little trouble with the wifi. It was strong enough to cover the entire unit. It only worked in the living room and one bedroom. When we need to contact Ann about a plumbing issue she responded quickly and it was taken care of.

The apartment on Manasota Key is a perfect location and size. The two bedrooms/baths are completely separate with no shared bedroom wall and a sliding door closes off the hallways between the two bedrooms from the main living area. Perfect privacy for two couples. The kitchen is well stocked. The decor is fresh and tidy. Less is always best. The key handoff was seamless. Ann was available for anything we needed. There's tons of storage in both the kitchen and each bedroom. Additionally, each bedroom has a door directly to the backyard. The apartment is attached to a large home via a huge "breezeway" and if both units are occupied you barely know anyone is there. Beach is five minutes walk. Restaurants and bars are a few minutes more. We love the fact Manasota Key had no traffic lights...yet. We would stay at the Tranquil Apartment again. The price was right too.

Wonderful spot, close to beach, restaurants and everything!

Great house with a wonderful view of the Gulf. Francine and Fred thought of so many small details that make the stay amazing. They're very communicative and helpful. I highly recommend a stay in one of their homes!

Beautiful newer condo close to the beach with nice view of marina. Thomas met us before the big game, showed us around, where the coffee was and told us to make ourselves at home. He provided extra pillows and aloe when my skin was in need. :). Thanks! Nice guy. He offered beach chairs, towels, etc although we didn't need. He was helpful with info about the area. The building is secured and area is safe. Would stay again gladly!

Copy private.

Carolyn's place was beach themed. It had everything to enjoy a relaxing stay. The pool area was nice too. The location is very close to Boca Grande and Englewood Beaches.

The location was great close beaches , shopping ,restaurants .Any issues we had they took care of right away.The unit was very clean and new appliances.The only that could have made our stay better would be to have a TV located in the bedroom.

If you are looking for a place to stay that is in close range to all the beaches the area has to offer (and there are a lot!) then look no further! This was the most at home away from home I've ever felt on vacation. Carolyn offers all the amenities you would have at home and then some. The on-site pool is a luxury that sadly due to our short stay we didn't get to enjoy enough however it is a quiet serene oasis that is perfect for anyone who is not so beach inclined. We will be making this our Florida destination for all future stays as this was more amazing than any hotel could offer!

The unit was in the perfect location for us and very convenient to the local marinas where we kept our boat. The place was very clean and fully equipped for any length of stay. Overall I would highly recommend this property if it fits your need and we were very pleased. Carolyn was an awesome host and responded timely to all communications. On top of all that she was very supportive when a family emergency almost spoiled our trip. I could not have asked for more.

I am a travel nurse and needed a place to stay for a few months. This apartment in Englewood was perfect. It is a one bedroom apartment, and has a full sized kitchen and full sized washer and dryer, which are 2 things you often do not find in small apartments. The apartment itself is off of a dirt road, and you have the feeling that you are in the country. It is very quiet. You are only about 5 miles from the Englewood beaches, and the drive is very easy. And you are only a mile from the main road in Englewood. The house is completely stocked. You only need to bring your clothes, toiletries and personal food. Roger and Lois are wonderful hosts. They live next door and are always available if you need anything. If any issues popped up, Roger was on it and fixed it right away. They will both let you know of things to do in the area. I think whether you are visiting for a few days or a few months, you will like this apartment and be glad that you came here to stay.

Good value for money! Secluded, quiet, natural setting. Great for nature-lovers and those who enjoy a place that's off the beaten path and unusual. Lush vegetation all around; there's a magnificent old live oak adorned with Spanish moss just outside the screened-in front porch, which was just steps from our private parking spot. Kitchen had everything we needed, and we ate many meals "at home." Supermarkets and restaurants are a few minutes drive away. The place is filled with natural light due to Roger's placement of numerous clerestory windows. We had been thinking of booking a condo in town but are glad we chose this instead. Roger and Lois were very welcoming and helpful but not intrusive. We look forward to returning.

Roger and Lois are the best! They could not have been more gracious and helpful. They provided everything to make our stay enjoyable and trouble free.

We were happy to meet our hosts Lois and Roger shortly after we settled in. This gave us an opportunity to ask any questions, and meet them personally. Our living space was just as advertized and pictured. Lois and Roger provided many items that would make staying in this property, and experiencing the great outdoors, possible if one arrived via plane & rental car. We were VERY pleased with our stay, and our gracious hosts!

Exactly as advertised. Everything you could ever need and then some. If you needed anything, just ask and Roger would get it. We were provided with with snacks on our arrival, maps and brochures of the area, and advice on things to do by Roger and Lois. We enjoyed going out to eat with them, going to the huge flea market in Ft Myers (they drove) and their church's gigantic rummage sale. We even got to play Mexican train with them and their friends two different nights. This was our first airbnb experience. We will definitely go back and Roger has convinced me to list our spare bedrooms to rent on airbnb.

This is our second trip to Roger & Lois's. We have felt welcomed each time. We consider them good friends. We took short day trips together, played cards and dominoes, and helped Roger celebrate his birthday. Roger and my husband went fishing several times. Lois and I went thrift store shopping and to lunch. We had such a good time that we have reserved 5 weeks for next winter!

This was our first time using airbnb and I am very pleased. Wow, what a great week, I am sad that we are now home in where it is 7 degrees . If you are looking for a place to stay near the beaches that also gives you tons of privacy, this is the place. The location alone is worth the stay. It is five minutes away from the beach, stores, and restaurants. Yet, gives you tons of privacy. We have a special needs teenager that does not do well in hotels but this place was perfect. She was able to hang out on the screen porch or walk around outside without us worrying about her. We spent many evenings on the swing on the porch. Roger and Lois provided everything we needed including kitchen equipment and linens. We were able to cook breakfast, lunch, and dinner right there. Just bring your personal items and clothes and you will be all set for your stay. Having a washer and dryer available was a great feature of this place and allowed us to pack lighter. In the evening the screen porch is a great place to hangout, of course the teenagers enjoyed the cable TV and internet. Roger even brought over a new holiday movie for my daughter to watch. We were greeted with a welcome card and a few snacks, which was great since we had been traveling most of the day. Roger was available for anything we needed and even set up a fire pit for us on New Year’s Eve. The bedroom was large and the bed slept great. We were able to leave the French doors open and have fresh air during the night. Not only would I stay there again, I have booked it for my parent’s in March. Roger and Lois are perfect host and made our vacation wonderful.

Very quiet location off the beaten track. Just the kind of place we like. Close to everything. Great location to walk. Great Value! Small place, but filled with everything you need. Loved having washer and dryer. Roger and Lois are perfect hosts. Always helpful with suggestions and recommendations.

Love the place we had great time there our host Rita was always available to answer our text , place was clean , everyone around very friendly . Love the pool big and very clean . We took a little boat to visit Palm island Beach .

Rita's place was great! We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment is spacious, clean and quiet. The pool is right next door along with a nice restaurant. Rita was easy to reach and accessible by phone. We will definitely stay here again!

This condo was fantastic! Dog friendly, spotless, and the sunset views overlooking the marina were incredible! Rita stocked the condo with cooking and cleaning supplies, beach towels and more! Both rooms in the condo have windows overlooking the water, and the pictures don't do it justice. Location was perfect - 10 minute drive from Gasparilla Island, which is a dog friendly beach with crystal clear water, manatees, and tons of shark teeth to find on the beach! We will definitely come back! Highly recommend it!

Rita's condo was super clean. Linens were good quality, plenty of towels, a nice place to come to after being out all day in this beautiful part of Florida. And the view of Lemon Bay was lovely. Boca Grande and Englewood beaches are beautiful and just a short drive away. Rita was just a text away if we needed anything, so I would definitely recommend it.

This is a one bedroom condo in a multi tenant building in the middle of a marina. The unit is a bit dated. The view from the patio is just like the picture and the sunset over the marina are gorgeous. The kitchen is adequately equipped. If you enjoy watching TV this is not the place for you. There are two TV's and neither are high def. The one in the living room is slightly larger than a PC monitor and the one in the bedroom is the old tube type. The selection of channels is very limited - mostly local channels, shopping channels and Spanish language channels. There is no ESPN, CNN, Fox News, TBS, TNT, Discovery channels or any premium movie channels. The Wi-Fi works fine.

Nice place on the water.

NICE LOCATION, GOOD VIEW. THAT IS IT. PLACE HAS BAD ODOR. THE PURITY OF THIS PLACE WAS VERY BAD. RUST, DUST, SWEATY SPOTS ON PILLOWS, BED, UNORGANIZED SHELFS AND DRAWERS, STUFF JUST THROWN IN, STINKY TOWELS, DIRTY STOVES, BIG HOLES IN LINENS, SPOTS FROM TOOTHPASTE ON THE MIRROR, DIRTY GLASSES IN THE SHELFS, ROACH BOMBS ON THE DRYER INSTEAD OF LAUNDRY DETERGENT, ALL THE FANS VERE COVERED BLACK WITH DUST. AND THE WORST IS YET TO COME. SOMEONE'S UNDERWEAR IN BEDROOM DRAWER. WHEN I SENDED THE PICTURES TO THE HOST AND WRITE HER ABOUT IT, SHE NEVER RESPONDED. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE AT ALL

Nice location. Easy access to Boca Grande and Palm Island. Restaurant and pool onsite. Quiet.
