Breathtaking beauty...

My wife and i finally enjoyed a beautiful vacation together, with an AMAZING place to stay for awhile... the cleanliness, the brightness, and the calmness of the Manatee House was a true turn around instead of being cooped up in ANY hotel room... we definitely will book our next vacay in one of Travis and Karens rental houses....

Wonderful Home in Jensen Beach

We stayed for the month of January in Manatee House in Jensen Beach. Although the weather was cooler than normal for 2 of those weeks, the house was great. It is very clean and well-furnished. Our dog, Bella, loved the fenced-in backyard where she could play catch-the-frisbee. It is very close to downtown Jensen Beach and a short drive to the beaches on Hutchinson Island. We enjoyed many beautiful sunsets while sitting in the backyard. We will definitely return to Manatee House the next time we need to escape the Midwest Winters.

Manatee House, Jensen Beach

This is an excellent rental property. Close to everywhere we wanted to visit. Excellent dining nearby. House was very clean, appliances are all new and in excellent condition. Master shower is a long run from the hot water heater so it takes a while to heat up, but it's a small inconvenience. Travis and Karin were wonderful, handled any of our questions quickly! We've gone ahead and booked another property already for next year, that's the confidence we have with them.

Charming House

The Manatee house was wonderful. Exceptionally clean! Close to downtown Jensen Beach area with restaurants and pubs. Short drive to beach. Safe quiet neighborhood. My only concern was the air conditioner system was complicated. Had a difficult time adjusting the air temperature. Similar to Nest system but I was not familiar with their thermostat so it made it challenging to keep cool. Highly recommended staying here!

Fantastic getaway

The Manatee House was even more than what we had hoped for. Everything we could have needed was available. The appliances were new, high end LG products. The beds were comfortable too! Karin and Travis checked in on us after the first couple of days to be sure everything was ok and that we didn't need anything. I really appreciated their attention. There is lots going on in Downtown Jensen, especially on Thursday nights....food, crafts, vendors, live music. Manatee House was a great location, beautifully appointed, and very convenient to anything you would want. Thanks very much to Karin and Travis.
