Manatees
Nice place close to everything. Only drawbacks in Airport flight path, planes helicopters daytime only. Next to lumber yard like to start trucks early morning. Still nice place did live up to name with manatees in canal in back yard.

Location was good but home needs updating
We arrived and were surprised the home needs updating. Beds and furniture were not comfortable. We enjoyed the screened in pool and eating area. We did see manatees in the canal. It is next to the airport so lots of air traffic noise. Location is close to all restaurants. Bonnie was extremely helpful with our issues.
