About this property

This newly renovated 2 queen bedroom, 2 bathroom single family home is a great home away from home for your next vacation. The tropical setting on the quiet south end of the Key makes for a great place to wind down from a stressful life. This private, fully furnished, tastefully decorated home is only 250 steps to the beautiful Gulf of Mexico beach and has a peak a boo view of Lemon Bay. It truly is a perfect place for your next get away.

This home offers a beautiful kitchen with new cabinets, quartz countertop, and breakfast counter with an open floor plan dining and living room, 2 bedrooms, each with queen beds and their own bathrooms. The living room has queen size sleeper sofa.

It is also complete with a laundry room with complementary use of washer and dryer. New AC unit installed in Fall of 2023 to make the warm days more comfortable.
For the outdoor grilling enthusiast, there is a 5 burner gas grill on the screened in Lanai. We also have a tandem Kayak, life jackets, 4 Tommy Bahamas backpack beach chairs with coolers and a beach cart.

You will have a very short walk from the Key to Life Beach House to our deeded beach path for your beach walks, shelling, fishing or for hunting for prehistoric shark teeth. You may want to take a dip in the Gulf or just sit on the beach and watch for the dolphins and manatees to swim by. The beach is a great place to watch an amazing sunset in the evenings.

Stump Pass State Park is only a 2 block walk from the front door, where you will find hiking paths, kayak and paddle board rentals, and over a mile of undisturbed "old Florida" shoreline. It is a perfect place to fish or to launch a kayak or paddle board and a pristine beach that is one of the best kept secrets on the Gulf Coast.


After a day at the beach, you can come back and relax in your own screened in lanai with comfortable patio furniture and plenty of play space for spreading out. Here you can enjoy some good conversation or just relish the evening air and
the peace and tranquility that Manasota Key offers.

If you're in the mood for an evening out, simply call for a free shuttle to take you to the local restaurants on the key. The Lock 'N Key, The SandBar Tiki Grille, The Waverly and Magnolias on the bay are all located on the island and offer great food in a family friendly atmosphere, some with live music most evenings. When you are through with your meal, the shuttle will bring you back home. There are free beach yoga classes every morning on Englewood Beach. The Key has gift shops, fresh sea food market, as well as a local convenience store. If you are in the mood to rent a pleasure boat, jet skis or or take a fishing charter, several water sport rental option are available on the Key.

Drive off the Key and you will find several grocery stores, countless eating choices and a Walmart within few minutes drive. The artistic city of Englewood is full of wonderful shops and offers a unique shopping experience.

Come and let the Key to Life Beach House be your next vacation paradise.

About the host

Hosted by Tony and Cindy Erickson

Host profile image
We are Tony and Cindy and we live in North Branch Minnesota. We have 6 children and 4 grandsons who all love hunting for sharks teeth on Manasota Key. We hope you enjoy your stay in our home, as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

This is a quiet, friendly and safe neighborhood. We can sit on the lanai and listen to the waves and watch the sunset from our back yard. There are many options for restaurants on the island, most with live music every night. The walk to the beach is so quick and easy. The private beach we have deeded access to is a treasure trove of prehistoric shark teeth and shells. It really is a piece of paradise on this “hidden gem” of the south end of Manasota Key.
