About this property

Trophy Fish at the Oasis — Resort-style living for groups who want more than just a place to sleep.

Trophy Fish at the Oasis is where your group actually lives outside. Heated saltwater pool and spa, full outdoor kitchen, putting green, fire pit, cornhole, and a 75" smart TV under a covered pavilion. Sonos sets the soundtrack inside and out. The yard is professionally misted for mosquitos — you're genuinely comfortable in Florida. Four bedrooms sleep 10. 45 minutes to Anna Maria Island and Siesta Key and 25 min to St. Pete!


We are happy to meet you and show you how things work or you can do self check in. We are also available by cell for any questions! We live nearby.

Ellenton is quiet, convenient, and underrated. You're five minutes from the Ellenton Premium Outlets, three minutes from Chipotle and Starbucks, and 25 minutes from some of the best beaches on Florida's Gulf Coast. Anna Maria Island, Siesta Key, St. Pete Beach, Longboat Key, Coquina Beach, and Cortez are all in easy reach.
Golf is everywhere — 87 courses within 20 miles, including River Strand Golf and Country Club 11 minutes away. The Manatee Riverfront has great dining, and Creekside Commons keeps opening new spots. SRQ airport is 26 minutes, Tampa International is 45.

Prior to your arrival you will be issued a unique code for the keypad on the front door. There is also a lockbox that will be programmed to the same code in case you prefer to have a standard key handy.

The entire house is yours to enjoy.

The garage is locked off for owner storage.

Plenty of driveway parking. Enough space for a boat, RV, numerous cars and street parking is okay!

Four bedrooms, 2.5 baths, sleeps 10.
The primary suite has a king bed with an ensuite bathroom — a true private retreat within the house. The second bedroom fits up to four guests with a king bed plus a full-sized day bed and trundle; its connected bath can be shared or closed off as a second ensuite. Bedrooms three and four each have queen beds. Outside, a half bath and outdoor shower keep pool time flowing without a traffic jam through the main house. A queen air mattress is available if you need to squeeze in one more.
The garage is reserved for owner storage; everything else — every inch of the backyard, every room, every outdoor space — is yours.

Plenty of parking in the driveway. Space for RV and boat. Golf Carts allowed in neighborhood. Uber and lyft readily available.

Please let us know if you are having any pets or if you would like the pool heated. The Pool is $50.00 per day to heat and we need 24hrs advance notice. Pets are a case by case basis and require owner approval. There is a pet fee of $100 per pet per stay if approved.

Before you arrive you will be asked to complete guest verification through third-party provider Truvi. This is done to ensure we are keeping up-to-date with short-term rental regulations as well as providing both our guests and our properties with extra protection. Truvi will contact you via email and/or text to complete the verification. You will be asked to pay a $/£35 damage waiver via third-party provider Truvi to protect up to $/£500 in case of accidental damage during your stay. Truvi will contact you via email and/or text to complete the process. Please do so prior to arriving at the property to enable a quick and easy check-in.

What a fantastic home with all the amenities. We stayed for the whole month of February and never got bored. Amanda and Patrick always answered any questions quickly. This is a great home for a larger family or a couple of couples to stay.

Perfect Stay!

We had an amazing time at Trophy Fish at the Oasis. It is so nice that it’s in a quieter area, but was a quick drive to anywhere and everywhere we wanted to go. The backyard gives private tropical island vibes. We will definitely be staying there again!

Amanda was a wonderful hostess, very responsive. The backyard and pool area is amazing. We were skeptical when we drove up but were pleasantly surprised at the size of the yard and home. Do not hesitate to rent this home! You are minutes from everything but the yard is so secluded that you don’t even realize you’re in a city!! The landscaping and plants alone are worth it.

Amazing property

We loved spending time here! The house was very clean and organized and the backyard was just exceptional! Great for entertaining and having friends over too. Every detail was taken into consideration. We went up for a soccer tournament and it was great to come back to the house after games and jump into the pool. Loved it and will be back!

Amazing 5 Diamond Resort Stay

Words cannot express how amazing and incredible this house was for our family. It is exactly as advertised and much more. We’ve stayed in many VRBO places over the last several years and nothing compares to this experience. The communication from the owners (Amanda) was exceptional. We are sad to go; but when we come back to Florida- we will be looking to stay here again! Thank you from the. It ton of our heart. We were impressed and had a fantastic time enjoying this home.

Great Backyard

We found this place at the last minute as our orginal stay on the beach was canceled. Everything about our stay was great. The backyard is just like the pictures. Our host was great answering all of my questions and providing lots of info about the house and the area. We went out daily for activies but could of stayed in the backyard the whole time. The local food was good. Raven pizza is a minute from the house and has good pizza. Shake station is great and is close by. Vampire penguin is a great for desert. Go to Detwilers for local fruit! Your about 45 minutes from Anna Maria Island and Siesta Key but totally worth the drive. Really Enjoyed our stay!

Thank you for your feedback. We always strive to provide a welcoming environment for all guests. However, we do want to clarify that your reservation did not reflect a family gathering, but rather a large party that exceeded the occupancy guidelines and community expectations for the neighborhood. We value transparency and want to ensure future guests have an accurate understanding of our space, which is best suited for respectful, small-group stays in accordance with local regulations and house rules. We appreciate your understanding.

Hi I am your host Amanda! I hope you enjoy my home as much as I do! I live local and I am available for any help or questions!

Why they chose this property

Ellenton is being hit with the next big wave. It is close to 275 and tons of restaurants, shops, etc are being built. Lots of new construction homes headed that way and it's only 25 min to St. Pete, 25 min to Anna Maria Island and 20 min to Bradenton and 20 min to UTC! Plus you have River access and golf courses!!!

What makes this property unique

The yard gives ultimate privacy. When you're back there, you almost feel like you are in Costa Rica!
