About the host

Hosted by Jennifer

Host profile image
After visiting Longboat Key since 2006 my husband and I were lucky enough to find this wonderful property. We took over a year and a half to strip it down to the studs and replace nearly everything! We now enjoy this home complete with all the beautiful finishes and cherished family furnishings that we love. We hope you will enjoy this peaceful retreat as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Unique to the island, this house sits at the mouth of the canal. Your view is down the canal which is protected mangroves on one side and boat docks on the other. With few houses on the street, it is a serene and quiet street. Quick access to both the bay and the beach!

What makes this property unique

The mangroves create a magical feel to this property. Enjoy the 100+ year old cedar trees on and surrounding the property as well as the new "native" landscaping which includes only those plants and trees found naturally on Longboat Key. Soft sand and meandering paths underfoot creates the ideal island retreat.
