Great house in nice neighborhood.

The house was clean, well appointed and perfect for family or 4 couples. Half mile walk to beach was east and beach carts made it easy to take chairs and cooler.

AMAZING PROPERTY

I have stayed at VRBO properties all over the country… This one is probably the most beautiful ever had! Words do not do it justice… The beautiful open concept house which streams out into a covered patio with lounge furniture and table is amazing! The pool is spotless, well-maintained and a perfect temperature.

Absolute rest and relaxation

Our stay at Manatee Harbor was excellent. From the preparation and concierge through the entire visit and ease of check out. The back yard is super private and beautiful. My family had such a wonderful time. Truly nothing negative to say! I'd stay at any of their properties without hesitation. Family friendly, easy, clean, beautiful, comfortable beds, we didn't want to leave!

Family Trip

This place definitely lives up to the beautiful photos that are attached to the listing. It was immaculate upon check-in, and had every amenity we needed, including great kitchen utensils for cooking. I definitely recommend this place if you’re coming with a Family or group of four or more adults. The location is nice as well. It’s right over the bridge and easy access to the beach and only 10 minutes from the airport.

Manatee Harbor is one of the best Airbnb’s in which I have ever stayed! The house is incredible. Beautifully decorated, immaculately clean, wonderfully furnished, spacious, peaceful and relaxing. The kitchen is awesome, the bathrooms are fabulous and the bedrooms are oases of calm and tranquility. The pool and outside space is beyond anything you can imagine. The garage is great to keep the car safe and the neighborhood is really quiet. David and Leo are absolutely fantastic. Responsive, helpful, friendly and welcoming. I can highly recommend Manatee Harbor!

Home is more beautiful in person!

We walked in and were greeted with a pleasant note. The home is VERY spacious. The management team communicated very professionally and timely. We fled here from hurricane Ian, but wanted to stay longer! Outstanding job to the leadership team that keeps up with this property! Everything was above expectation!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We could not have asked for a more beautiful house with easy access to shopping, the beach and downtown Ft Lauderdale. The house is renovated with tasteful decor. The bedrooms and living space is spacious with plenty of seating. The outdoor covered space was perfect to enjoy being outside despite the afternoon showers. We would recommend this space over and over again.

Best vacation house staycation

This is the perfect property. They thought of it all!! It’s an amazing property with great ambiance! From the moment you walk in the door, you can feel all the weight of the world just melt away. The openness of the space and that kitchen! Loved cooking there. We spent most of the time there in the pool day and night. That was one of the deciding factors for homes for our trip. The finishing, decor and designs are on par with our taste. And at the end it’s like a vacation from your vacation! It’s just nice. A must experience.
