About this property
Waterfront-20 Steps to Private Beach-1+ BR-Pets OK-Kayaks-SUPs-Best Sharkteeth
Newly renovated, upscale, light and bright suite (exclusive private 1st floor of a residential home with private entrance). Perfect for 1 or 2 couples, or a family of 4-6, and elderly travelers since no stairs are required to access the property (only 5 stairs to access the beach). Private and Secluded 1+BR Waterfront Suite. Fully equipped Kitchen with BBQ Grill, with Private Access to your Suite and Private Gulf Ocean Beach 20 Steps from Your Front Door (literally). This property is in the last remaining "Old Florida" region of the Gulf Coast of Florida, with subtropical rainforest flora and fauna surrounding the property, the largest Banyan Tree in the state of Florida (called a "champion tree" by the Florida Forest Service), a hammock just waiting for you on the beach, or chairs outside your suite for watching sunsets. Kayaks, SUPs, shark hunting gear, beach chairs/umbrellas, and boogie boards on property for free guest use. Bikes easily rented and delivered to your door, Uber Eats, Publix Grocery Store, Walmart, or Instacarte deliver right to your door, and live music and 3 restaurants await you only a 10-15 minute drive (or a bike ride) down the beach road. Community Tennis Courts (including lighted courts at night) and Golf Courses available within a 15 minute drive. Sarasota/Bradenton International Airport is only a 50 minute drive, easily accessed via Uber, Lyft, or a personal driver than can be arranged for you. Fort Myers Airport 80 minutes, and Tampa 90 minutes.
2 shared Kayaks and 3 Stand Up Paddle Boards are provided for guest use. These are shared with the 4 bedroom rental guest cottage across the street. Beach chairs, umbrellas, a hammock, and a gas grill make this a place easy to quickly settle into upon arrival.
Note for guests who like to do a lot of cooking for extended stays: The kitchen in this unit is equipped with a single gas burner for boiling or steaming, an electric skillet, a rice/vegetable steamer, and a medium sized toaster oven. These cover all functions of a full stove, but there is not a traditional stove in the kitchen area for conservation of space, while taking into account that most guests tend to eat out a lot.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Evan Greenwald
I'm semi retired and recently bought this dream waterfront home, recently renovated it, and just listed it in late February 2022, which is why there are few reviews yet far. I live upstairs on the second floor of this private suite, and so am available onsite for assistance if needed between September and April.
Why they chose this property
I purchased this waterfront property in late 2021, which I now live in most of the year, and the suite for rent is a newly remodeled in-law apartment with its own private entrance on the lower floor of the main house, segregated from our second floor living space. A second bedroom on that same floor, connected to the suite and locked off from our home on the second floor, is available for rent for an additional $100 fee per night, if desired. This property is truly unique. It is is one of the last regions of Florida that maintains and protects its subtropical temperate rainforest environment, and it is on the only "canopy drive" protected roadway in the region. There are nearly 50 species of subtropical flora and fauna, and protected wildlife (Gopher Tortoises in particular), and it is a unique and welcome relief from the rest of Florida that has become multi-unit condos or high rise hotels. The natural beauty of the region, and well over 10 miles round trip of beach walking or running, along with fossilized shark teeth collecting as a beach past time, is amazing. The people on the beach are friendly, and pets are welcome on the beach and often appreciated and "loved up" by passers by. Manasota Key Road is well marked for bike riding, bike rental pick up and drop off is available, and the area does a great job at creating safe bike lanes for users. The local recreation department also supports over 8 tennis courts within a 15 minute drive, often empty, and round robin open access tennis is offered Mon, Wed, Friday mornings from 9-11 am, so it is easy to get some doubles tennis even if you don't have a tennis partner. Golf is accessible near by. Live music and restaurants are within 4-5 miles, a quick drive or bike ride. Happy hour music 7 night weekly and libation in open air restaurants is easily accessible, and Sunday night drumming circle at sundown is a weekly ritual worth attending.
What makes this property unique
The primary benefit of this property is that you can hear the ocean waves all night from your bedroom, and a private beachfront is just 30 steps away from your front door. Need I say more?! You can beach walk "forever" to explore or hunt for fossilized shark teeth, a local past time that everyone chats about as they search and find these relics from the past. The community is full of waterfront recreation options, from parasailing to boat rentals, as well as free community use tennis courts. Public golf courses are nearby. 2 Kayaks are onsite for guest use. Bikes can be rented and delivered to your door before you arrive, and picked up after your check out. Live music venues are everywhere, as are dining options. Dearborn Street is worth a stroll for their artistic flair shops and a couple outdoor bistro type restaurants, or a latte at a local cafe', or a visit to a local antique/collectibles shop. There is an energy and vibe to this 1 mile section of Manasota Key Road, and the cozy and quite cottage, that is worth exploring given its uniqueness. It exudes peace and positive energy, and as everyone knows, saltwater and the sea heals nearly everything that ails we humans.
