Wonderful Location and Beautiful Home!

I was super nervous leading up to our stay with Tropical Storm Debby coming through the area. Stayed in communication with the owner and everything worked out great including the weather! House has everything you need for a week's long stay at the beach. We love this area, and you can't beat the location of this house. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home!

Perfect Beach Retreat

This is our second time vacationing at Windrose, and we are very much looking forward to future visits! Windrose has everything you need and more for a very comfortable and relaxing stay, and Andy and Justina are helpful, personable, and communicative. Windrose is in a perfect spot in Englewood Beach and the beach entrance is at your doorstep. Windrose is becoming a "home away from home" for us. My only regret( as the case with my last visit) is that we couldn’t stay longer! Thank you Andy and Justina for sharing your slice of paradise with us!

Wonderful Stay

We had 3 weeks of beautiful weather. We had everything we needed in the kitchen when we cooked. The beds were very comfortable. We would have loved a fenced yard for our pups to run around in safely & a weber charcoal grill. Other wise it was a perfect place to stay & a few steps to the beach was so wonderful!!

About the host

Hosted by Andy & Justina Hanks

Host profile image
We first came to Manasota Key to check out Stump Pass State Park and fell in love with the island. After many trips back to the island we found, Windrose, the perfect beach house for us. We have spent a good portion of our lives on the water boating and on the beach. When we are not on the island we on are on Lake Erie.

Why they chose this property

This is a unique old Florida type beach bungalow. Totally updated with all modern appliances, WIFI, Smart TV's, private patio with firepit, car port and all on the ground floor
level. NO STAIRS! Located on a dead end street with no traffic and wonderful neighbors. It's comfortable quiet and SO close to the beach.

What makes this property unique

No stairs. That's right...no stairs.
