Oasis

My sister and I stayed for an extended weekend, and Kim thought of everything to make us comfortable and well accommodated. The beds were super comfy, everything was exceptionally clean, and we have a beautiful view. We were very happy to see that she had a set of table with chairs that were high enough to see over the railing rather than a View through the bars on the railing. She walked us through locating the property as our GPS kept taking us in the wrong direction. She was very accessible when we had questions was quick responses. We highly recommend anyone to stay here!

Perfect Relaxation

Such a slow moving weekend filled with lots of experiences. My girls made lots of new friends who were visiting the beach for the day or their grandparents for the weekend. Everything was within walking distance except for the super market which was just a short drive. The beach was great for us - lots of passing boats, live sand dollars & hermit crabs. The distant sound of the music from the nearby restaurant & low population of beach goers made it feel like it was just for us. The water was shallow so we could learn to paddle board. The dolphins in the canal behind us & sunrises right outside our window made it a great experience. The room was perfect & all the amenities by the owner were spot on. We hope to return (soon).

A little slice of heaven

The place was absolutely perfect! My wife and I enjoyed our time here. When we picked up my mother in law, she loved it too. The beautiful view and the sunrises in the morning, along with seeing dolphins and manatees popping up in the bay occasionally…everything was just top notch. An easy drive to Sarasota or Tampa or Anna Maria Island. Beautiful beaches and fun shopping all within 30-60 minutes. You won’t regret booking a stay here!

Relaxing getaway

We loved this place. Everything was so clean and neat when we arrived. We loved the book of nearby attractions and restaurants. And we had fun using the pickle ball racquets and balls at the courts on property!! We loved sitting on the deck in the evenings watching the boats and birds navigate the quiet waters. Every evening we enjoyed beautiful sunsets and bright sun rises! We would definitely return!!!

Exceptional host with the perfect spot to slow down and relax

We really enjoyed our stay! The place was perfect for our little family of 3. Everything was cute and clean. The beds were probably the most comfortable we’ve slept in away from home! We loved watching the dolphins from the balcony while sipping our coffee, gathering seashells from the beach and watching the sunset from the fishing pier. We also tried both restaurants and they were great! Kim was an exceptional host! She made the renting process so easy and enjoyable. She was always quick to respond to any questions we had and gave us wonderful recommendations to make the most out of our stay. We were so surprised to find a basket of snacks and some beach stuff for our son when we arrived. She went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and we really appreciated it! Kim was wonderful and her place is great! We will definitely be visiting again and would highly recommend it to anyone.

About the host

Hosted by Kim Becker

We are the original owners of unit 411 at The INN and have just recently taken over the managing of it ourselves. We love our little place in Little Harbor and everything that it offers. Our kids have grown up playing on the beach, making sand castles, swimming in the pools and recently moved on to renting boats and fishing off the pier. Our condo's balcony has always been a source of solitude, watching for dolphin, manatees and Florida's Fowl. We have spent over 30 years in the travel industry and are grateful for the opportunity to travel the globe and still find our place at Little Harbor a perfect place for a peaceful little getaway.
