Why the Owner Chose Englewood Beach
We purchased this property on Manasota Key because the beach is fantastic and the surrounding area is quaint and uncrowded.

A little bit of Paradise...........

Right on the beach! this accomadation was clean, cool (with its new quiet airconditioning). well equiped in an ideal setting. no need to put your shoes on as its right on the beach. the setting is idillic, glorious sunsets (glass in hand), some great beach fishing and a championship standard golf course just down the road. (Lemon Bay Golf Club). Eating out is a pleasure at many local restaurants, the LOCK & KEY being our favorite. We ate in as well in the well equipt kitchen, with a large fridge freezer, it was easy to keep things fresh. It's in a flat location so walking is easy, the sea is shallow for paddling and gently gets deeper, no sudden drop and the temprature was 83 degrees (yes, 83 degrees) in September/October, wonderful!! A property for all ages with easy access, comfortable beds and a good shower. We are going back next year, that says it all really. :-) Thanks John & Sal

I can't say enough about this property or it's location. It was fabulous! We stayed in one of the downstairs 1Br units and it was perfect for our party (2 adults & a 3yr old). The unit is well maintained and faces the beach. It felt like home away from home. We spent every morning shelling and walking the shore and evenings sitting on the lounge chairs watching the sunsets. Was the best week at the beach for everyone. the location is quiet and private. I would recommend this spot to friends and family without hesitation.

Relaxing Vacation !!!

This Beach Cottage exceeded our expectations. It was so beautifully furnished and immaculately clean! We were so impressed with the views since we could look out several different windows at the ocean. Your cottage was equipped with everything we needed almost like being at home. Having things for the beach provided such as beach towels, chairs, and umbrellas was an extra added bonus. What we really enjoyed though was sitting on the beach everyday watching the dolphins and manatees, we also spend time found sharks teeth and beautiful shells. We definitely plan to come back again and would recommend your cottage to our friends. Thank you Jon and Sally for allowing us to stay in your piece of paradise.

Review Submitted: 06/13/11
My wife & I spent a week here and it was a great experience. The beach house is in an "older" neighborhood that is quiet, friendly and perfect for walking or cycling without dealing with constant traffic- Yet it is convenient to stores and businesses in town. The house sits right on the beach with nothing between you and the water. This place is a great, comfortable alternative to run-of-the-mill condos. The apartment we rented is perfect for couples or a family with only 1 or 2 kids. In June the beach is quiet with only a few folks (friendly folks, too)- not crowded at all- great for swimming, fishing, snorkeling, beach combing (lots of shark teeth & shells), or just sitting. Saw manatees, dolphins, lots of shore birds, and it seemed like there was a new turtle nest nearby every morning. Real close to Stump Pass park where there is lots of undeveloped shoreline. Although off-season, there were plenty of local restaurants (good seafood at Howards and Flounders- but stick with the steak at Lock & Key) open and the location is convenient to Venice, Port Charlotte, etc. We highly recommend this rental. Also, the owners are a pleasure to deal with and respond promptly to your inquiries.

Thank you so, so much for sharing your little piece of Heaven! This is the best vacation my children and I have ever had. Our unit was the perfect size, perfect location and beautifully stocked. We had everything we needed to do exactly what I wanted...Park the car, put our toes in the sand and not move for 7 full days. YAY! We were also blessed with the best vacation neighbors ever which gave us the opportunity to scope out the units around us, which were not updated and claustrophobically chopped up. Thank you for the open, airy, updated slice of Heaven! Keep our deposit...We will be back very soon!!!!

In the past our vacations included several day trips, shopping outings & lots of dinners out. Not this year! We spent most days on the beach (me with a bucket in hand- my hubby relaxing under the umbrella) enjoying our surroundings. The beach was unbelievable! Dolphins, heron, shorebirds & even manatees! (I was less than 10 feet away from one in the ocean!) The shelling was the best. We found 700+ sharks teeth!! A walk to Stump Pass State Park is well worth it. So much to see! (sea urchins, hermit crabs, all kinds of critters!) The cottage is sunny & bright. It was clean & comfortable. Couldn't have asked for more! Oh! the few times that we did go out to dinner we went to the Lock & Key. Great service & food for really good prices. The whole trip from start to finish was the relaxing vacation that we needed! Thank you Sal & family for sharing your home with us!! :)
