• Funky hippie house

  5/5

  Super fun house with something new and crazy and different in every corner. The public beach spills over in front of the house beach area at peak times as the house is right next to it.

• Amazing home

  3/5

  Pictures just can’t do justice to this beautiful eclectic home!

  Every picture, every piece of artwork, every table, every light - all create a feast for the eyes!

  Upstairs includes a wonderful sitting area to watch the ocean especially at sunset. Floor to ceiling windows. This is where we spent the majority of our time. The spacious master bath is upstairs (however we preferred the king bed downstairs). The kitchen worked just fine for us upstairs but the nicer kitchen is downstairs. There were only two of us but plenty of room for 6 adults.

  Outside is a tropical garden. It has the most beautiful tropical landscaping and everything was well maintained. The deck has nice furniture and a perfect view.

  We also enjoyed the outside bath and shower. It is just steps to the beach. Beach chairs are provided. We also had a lot of fun finding sharks teeth on the beach!

  Location is a great area. It is in a gated community with many beautiful homes. The city of Englewood is near Manasota Key with everything you might need. The beach at the house is great but we also wandered down to road to other beaches and restaurants on the beach.

  Our contact person was Lora and she very quickly answered every question we had. She was so accommodating to let us check out a little later. We appreciated having her as our contact.

  The biggest problem with the house and the only reason I can’t give it 5++ stars is the pool. It was dirty on our arrival although Lora offered to come clean it. But the temperature of the pool stayed at 65-68 degrees. There was no way we could use it. There is a strong chlorine smell downstairs (understandable) and the pool comes on for circulation ever so often even in the night (understandable) but these are not as easy to appreciate when we couldn’t use the pool. The sign on the refrigerator says it is heated to 85 degrees so it could be heated and would make it much more pleasurable for guests.

  Would we come back? Yes!

• Amazing!

  5/5

  We loved everything about this rental. Every detail was amazing, from the location, to the property, to the house itself. My family loved exploring and playing in the "back yard". The outdoor shower/bathtub are what dreams are made of :)

  Very quirky house in a fantastic location on the beach.

  5/5

  We had an amazing time staying here. The best part about this home and property is how much privacy you have. The beach was never crowded. The home is perfect and has just about everything you'll need.
