We had a terrific stay on the property. Loved waking up each morning to visit the dock and see the dolphins, snook, sheepshead, and more. The pool was great. Unit was sparkling clean and well appointed. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Great Florida house

This is a beautiful little cottage on the bay. The house is lovely inside and out. The bay is beautiful and there are seating areas on the dock and by the water. We saw manatees and dolphins from the dock. It made our trip exceptional.

It was exceptionally clean and comfortable. Stocked with everything we needed

It is located in a quiet neighborhood with private access to a pool and a beach looking out onto Lemon Bay. The cottage is perfect for 2 people. Price was reasonable and the rental process was very easy. The neighbors were all very friendly. The location made it very easy to get around to local restaurants and beaches. I would highly recommend this hidden gem to anyone

2 week stay

The Tiki Hut was a perfect fit for us. Comfy King bed, Very Clean, 2 televisions, 2 baths, and very well equipped kitchen. Beautiful view from the dock, just a short walk to Dearborn street and a wonderful thrift store (EARS). I would highly recommend this rental. Owners were easy to reach out to, and they checked in to make sure everything was ok on our first day!

In May it was so nice staying here had whole place to our selves. We really enjoyed the pool as well! We saw 3 manatees while down on dock at inter coastal that was such a highlight of or vacation.

Relaxing & Peaceful Get-a-Away

We loved our stay at Tiki On The Bay #11! The bungalow is adorable, tastefully decorated, very comfortable and well maintained. The kitchen has everything we needed to cook meals. Judy promptly replaced the washing machine with a new one before we arrived. The linens are very nice. We enjoyed the pool which is located a short walk away, as well as the dock to Lemon Bay. We watched dolphins from the dock early in the mornings. The views are so peaceful and serene. This property is a little gem!

Great Bungalow on Lemon Bay

Stayed at this Bungalow from 12/25/2021 to 1/03/2022. Has all the comforts of home in a great quiet location near Lemon Bay. Perfect for a couple and kept up well. So convenient to the beach, restaurants, fresh seafood, excursions, etc. Even had frequent Manatee visits next to the pier during sunsets.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this very comfortable, thoughtfully and well equipped cottage. The owners have thought of everything! The area had lots of restaurants. The access to the Bay from the property and the pool were a plus. If we find ourselves in the Englewood area again, we'd choose the Tiki cottage again in a heartbeat.
