Are you a beach lover? Stroll across the street and go for a swim. Collect seashells and shark’s teeth. Sunbathe and listen to the soothing sounds of the Gulf. Take a long walk on the seven miles of peaceful, unspoiled beach. Fly a kite. Fish in the surf.
Water sports. Bring your boat and park at our dock. Don’t have a boat? Take advantage of the many local boat rental options. You can also rent jet skis, kayaks, stand up paddle boards and more. Take advantage some of the best fishing around, from our dock, a boat or the Gulf Beach.

About John Klein
John and Maria
John Klein purchased this condo in 2014
Why John Klein chose Florida South West
John and Maria. We share a love for the beach. During some recent cold winters up north we were compelled to purchase a place that we could always get away to. We finally did and we couldn't be more happy with our choice. Each time we visit our place in Manasota Key, we love it even more than the last.
What makes this condo unique
When we saw this property we immediately fell in love. It has the quiet serenity of Lemon Bay with it's gorgeous sunrises and yet the Gulf of Mexico is less than a two minute walk across the street. The El Galeon complex is so clean and beautifully maintained that it feels like home . When we come here we can park our car and not get back into it, if we so choose. We can walk to several restaurants or pubs and spend all day at the beach. We can go out for a boating or hiking adventure or just relax and collect seashells and shark's teeth and watch the sunset over the Gulf. We love that the beach here is not built up like resort towns yet it has everything we love in those places. We love to go down to Stump Pass State Park, on the south side of the Key, where it feels as though you are on a island in Caribbean. Manasota Key is a well kept secret!

Reviews
Exceptional!
5/5 -
(22 traveler reviews)
Great location!
Very cute place! Soft bed sheets and towels. Loved the location! Great views of the bay to watch all the activities. Loved all the birds and even caught a small glimpse of a manatee. Walking distance to bars and restaurants. Nice to listen to the music from your patio. You can walk to the beach right across the street and hunt for shark teeth! Would love to return!
Great Beach Get Away
Outstanding views of Lemon Bay while also having a very short walk to beautiful Gulf of Mexico beaches. Condo offered almost anything you would want for a one or two week stay at the beach. Excellent facilities for docking a boat within a few feet of the condo. Beautiful state park about 1 mile away. We would strongly recommend this property to a friend or relative and can't wait for our next visit.
If there were 6 stars - this place would get it!!
We absolutely love this place! The harbor on one side and a very, very short walk across the street to the Gulf. Immaculately clean. Pleasantly decorated. Comfortable bed. Quiet. Convenient (walking distance) to excellent restaurants and live music. Super management team! Every request responded to immediately. Walking distance to Stump Pass Park where you'll watch the dolphins play and find sea-life and shells and sharks teeth. Morning beach yoga a 5 minute walk away. What else could you possibly want? This was our second visit and I wouldn't stay anywhere else in the area (except maybe the other condo they manage in El Galeon East). :-)
Return Visit: Just as Great as the First!
This was a return visit to Bay Breeze for my husband and I. We were just as impressed this time around as we were a year ago. Notable improvements made over the past year include a simplified "check-in" procedure that was a whole lot easier on us, the guest/vacationers; and the addition of beach chairs for use by the guests. It made all the difference in the world to be able to sit comfortably at the beach versus being on a beach towel on the ground. This unit has to have THE most beautiful views, looking over Lemon Bay, as it is a corner unit -- the sunrises are phenomenal. Convenience abounds in that you can walk to just about anything you need. We did a 'true relaxation vacation' this time around since it was a return visit, and loved it. We'll be back!
Heaven in Manasota Key
My family and I have been vacationing at El Galeon for over 15 years. We have stayed in various units but until this past year this unit was owner occupied. This year we were able to book here and I have to say it is AMAZING. It is the nicest of the units we have ever stayed in. It is updated, clean and has the most beautiful views. There is nothing like sitting on the balcony in the morning or after a day at the pool/beach and watching the dolphin play right in front of you or the manatee play around at the piers. The nice thing about staying here is the location. You are only 1-1/2 - 3 hrs from either Busch Gardens, Disney, or Miami if you choose to do a little venturing out. I have to say that we did not do that this trip because we enjoyed the pool and the beach and fishing right off the docks. The owner was a great person to deal with and even though he is in a different state he went out of his way to make sure that all went smoothly with our vacation. If you are traveling to Manasota Key Florida you should definitely make it a point to stay in this unit because I know that this will be out new yearly vacation unit!!!!
Beautiful room and location!
My family and I stayed for a week for our summer vacation. We could not have asked for a better time! The room was very clean, comfortable, and beautiful. Our balcony overlooked the boat docks so we had a beautiful view from sun up to sun down. The room was very close to the pool but quiet and private as well. Manatees swam up to the dock our first night and all the kids were able to pet them. We went boating and tubing down Ski Alley, played at the sand bar near Stump Pass, saw Dolphins, and fished throughout the week. We could not have asked for a more enjoyable week. We definitely wer not ready to come home!
Map
Just south of Sarasota, off the coast of Englewood, this beguiling barrier island is in perfect harmony with its surroundings. No traffic lights, no high rises, no deed restrictions, just a two lane protected canopy road leading you to swaying palms, an endless white sand beach, and the warm, turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Casually sophisticated, Manasota Key offers a variety of lifestyles. Opulent waterfront estates mingle effortlessly with cozy beach-side cottages and classic winter residences. An eclectic variety of shops populate nearby Historic Dearborn Street and restaurants tempt eager visitors on and off the key.
Nearby sandbars offer soothing relaxation or invigorating water sports while big amenities are just minutes away. Manasota Key is the perfect match for those that would appreciate Century’s old Banyan trees alive with tropical birds, frolicking dolphin, loggerhead turtles, balmy sea breezes, the kiss of the sun, and the magic of the sunset endow Manasota Key with a dramatic, sensual, and serene ambiance. To get away from it all but requires the convenience of nearby airports. If you enjoy casual waterfront dining you’ll love the numerous restaurants, accessible by boat along the Intra-Coastal waterway from Sarasota to Boca Grande. Take family and friends 5 minutes south to Stump Pass and swim with the dolphins, hunt for pre-historic shark’s teeth and fossils, grill out, or just watch the sunset into the Gulf of Mexico. We assure you this is the most natural barrier island remaining on the west coast of Florida.
