Great location

Being on the bay was great for dolphin watching, and then a 5 minute walk across the street we were at our very own quiet beach! It is a short drive in to town for restaurants. The location was quiet and very enjoyable.

A Warm Pool with a View

Nice quiet location, everything you would need in the house, super warm pool, short walk to the ocean, great kitchen setup, and the bay view was very tranquil. Diving pelicans were our main entertainment. We would happily stay at this location again.

This property was exactly how it was described. Amenities were great. They even have a bottle of wine waiting for you. I spent my birthday weekend with my family here and it couldn’t have been any better. Communication with hosts was easy. Place was clean and tidy, and the bed was comfortable.

Great Girl's Trip

This was the perfect little place for our girl's trip. It was clean had everything we needed. Had the pool and could walk to the private beach. We brought bikes with us and could bike up to the street to eat. Perfect getaway with a beautiful beach and amazing sunrises you could watch from the Bay in the backyard.

This property did not disappoint. The unit we stayed in was so clean with high end furnishings, and everything we needed. The view of the bay , right outside our window, was astonishing. Saw a few other occupants and all were friendly. Very quiet and everyone followed the rules. My only suggestion for improvement would be to repair the dock and refurbish the beach with sand. I hope to return someday.

Nice place

The property was clean and well maintained. I thought when booking it may have been farther south near stump pass but there is a free shuttle that will take you anywhere. I realize it’s February but was hoping to catch fish off the dock but unfortunately there was nothing but minnows in the area. The property is a must stay if you want to explore Manisota key.

Couples retreat

This was a great spot and fantastic location. Very relaxing and great for couples. I would say the bed needs to be replaced and the moisture issue needs to be addressed. I do think that while being green and healthy they do need a spot for a smoker! But overall great spot wonderful time and would go back!

Perfect vacation spot!

I can't say enough about this place. We can't wait to come back. Lemon bay is beautiful. It is right out your backdoor. We fished right off the dock. The pool was nice. Go out the front and take a short walk to a private,,absolutely beautiful beach. Amy was great and seemed to be on top of everything. Hope to be back soon.

Perfect getaway!!

My boys are 8 and 6 and they loved the pool and fishing from the dock. The beach was not far at all and the cart to wheel stuff to the beach was prefect. The place itself is super big and was comfy for all of us!! The master bed was very comfy. They had all kinds of stuff for us too like reusable Kcups, detergents, tons of towels, games (boys played Sorry twice), washer and dryer etc etc!! I would recommend this place to all. Per effect little place. Thank you again.

Wonderful!

Everything was exactly as pictured and more. The host was communicative and clear, the property was clean and gorgeous! Everything that we needed was provided, all we needed to bring was our clothing and food. We cooked at the unit three times, and had everything that we needed, down to the seasonings. The location was beautiful and quiet. with easy access to the gulf beach, and a relaxing location on the bay beach and shade by the pool when we had enough sun. Although there were others at the property, we felt as if it was our own. We will be back!

Pros: Very clean, well equipped, water view. Cons: Our friends could not come to unit due to only one parking spot and no unregistered guess. Unit is old. Unit was sticky and damp our entire stay. Overall romantic little spot just not for us.

Our stay at Island Oasis

We enjoyed our stay in the condo unit called Island Oasis. It was on the first floor and very conviently located to the pool, sandy area, landry room and our car. The condo was nicely furnished and decorated. I was amazed with the amount of storage in the bedroom. There were extra shelves, drawers and hanging spaces which were very creatively set up to maximize the usage of space. All the basic supplies needed were available in the unit. It was located in a quiet area and there wasn't alot of tradfic so easy to get to and from the condo. We appreciated all the suggestions regarding restaurants and things to do in the area which we enjoyed taking advantage of. We had a problem occur in the condo and we received a response back within a short period of time and the problem was quickly resolved. We would highly recommend staying here.

Dead Rat and flying bugs in room

Pros: The property is in a great area, we could walk across the street to the beach, great quiet location. The rooms themselves are very nice and were suited to our family. Kitchen was well stocked. Cons: On the second day there was a dead rat just outside our room, next to our parking place. I notified the management company and they said they would come by the next day to remove it. Just not something I want to look at every time we walk by and it doesn't seem like a good idea to let it rot in the hot sun. On the last night, while our kids were watching TV, bugs started to crawl all over the screen, furniture and curtains and then started flying around attracted to the lights. They seemed to be flying termites, so many that we had to quickly move all our belongings into the bedroom and close off the living area. I contacted both the emergency number and the owner via vbro. I don't think they believed me how many there were and said it was probably because we had the window or door open, we did not do either. I took video and photos to send to the owner. No remediation or callback that night. So the kids had to sleep on the floor in our room because there were too many bugs to stay in the main room. (I'm talking 100-150 flying bugs). We checked out at 6:00am the next morning and got the heck out of there. Also, the listing says no children under 6 were allowed on the property, but when we were there, there was a family with two small children ages 2 & 3 in diapers in the pool. After we left the owner did offer to send us a gift card for our troubles, but its been three weeks, no update and no adjustment or gift card has been received, nor has the owner responded to my last message.
