Walk to Beach: Pet-Friendly Oasis on Manasota Key!

Reviews

• 5/5

  This place was ideal! Immaculately clean! Host had everything you could ever want for perfect beach days including towels, chairs, cooler, and cart. We did not want for anything. Great location. Beach was not crowded and it was short walk. Host could not have been more accommodating. Can’t want to go back.

• Location and House fantastic

  4/5

  LOVED:House was great. Everything you need til you go to the store. Sunroom/lanai was fine but was extremely hot to use in heat of day. A/C kept house really cool.House was exceptionally clean. Great kitchen, living room, bedrooms, and bathrooms Very comfortable. Beach items were definitely appreciated and sand buggy was a thrill! For us old folks, at least.Outside water was great but would have like a small partition on the side for a little privacy. DISAPPOINTED:Due to dampness the back yard mosquitoes were really bad. The table with umbrella was invaded by caterpillars. Not poisonous but still dont want them crawling on me. Mostly the a/c unit was loud in the backyard. I realize it was the way it operated but hard to enjoy outside when you have to yell to have a conversation.OVERALL:GREAT LOCATION TO BEACHHOUSE IS BEAUTIFUL AND VERY CLEANWOULD STAY AGAIN HOPING FOR BETTER EXPERIENCE WITH BACKYARD.OWNERS HELPED WITH ITEM LEFT BEHIND AND GRACIOUSLY RETRIEVED IT AND FOR THAT I CHANGED TO A 5WE ARE VERY APPRECIATIVE.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Louise, we’re delighted you enjoyed the home, its amenities, and convenient location! We shared your feedback with the homeowner, and they'd like to share the following:
  - Mosquitoes and caterpillars can indeed be common in Florida because of the warm, humid climate, especially at certain times of day. We recommend future guests plan accordingly with insect repellent and timing outdoor activities carefully.
  - After learning about the noise from the A/C unit, we promptly had it serviced. The technician found a bent fan blade and adjusted it, significantly reducing the outdoor noise level.
  - We appreciate your suggestion regarding a privacy partition for the outdoor shower and will consider this idea when making future improvements.
  Thanks for your valuable feedback.

• Loved it!

  5/5

  We are grateful to have found such a beautiful little place amidst all the left over hurricane damage that ravaged Manasota. The home is thoughtfully furnished and sparkling clean. The trek to the beach was not bad- we very much appreciated the beach cart, the outdoor showers, and having cleaning supplies provided for daily sand clean up!

  Easy check in. Great, quiet location. Loved the outdoor shower. Beach amenities a plus. Fenced in yard, but little ones may be able to slip under fence, so be careful. Great find on the island.
