We had a great stay. Check in instructions were perfectly detailed, beach access was easy to find, and the place had everything and more than we could have needed. We had a great time here!

Mother-Daughter Trip
Absolutely loved our stay!! Property was very nice and cozy! Beach was conveniently across the street and several restaurants a few blocks down the street. Once we made our trip to grocery store we didn’t have to drive anywhere. We’re already planning our next trip to Starfish Stays in Englewood!! The hosts Scot and Paula were quick to respond to any questions I had. Again we absolutely loved it!! Vicky T.

Very clean. With all the amenities that you can think of. Although it was not directly on the beach, it was conveniently located in front of the pathway to the beach. Property owners and staff were great to deal with, super friendly. Will definitely go back.

Clean, Efficient and Cute-to-Boot!
Starfish Stays accommodated my husband and myself comfortably. Couch & tv for him to watch his news and read his paper. Chair outside by door for me to sip coffee. Bed was comfortable! Bathroom was just right. Loved using my phone to lock & unlock door. Easy walk across street to access beach. Appreciated having coffee available to get through our first morning upon arrival! I highly encourage others to consider Starfish Stays at Manasota Key.

Disappointing for the miney
Door opening and locking was an issue/TV was a nightmare/AC quit working /we got on line and figured it out after two warm nights-not enough towels/shower was good/when we turned up fan it make a clicking noise and needed to be turned down/parking is terrible/for the money we paid/we could get a beautiful condo for a month and that is what we will do next time/Ron Labadie

Interesting that we never heard from you at all when you were staying with us! We have no issues with our new AC, the thermostat works just like a house, a simple call would have shed some light on the buttons (up and down) or a review of the directions. The new 55' flat screen TV's work great thank you! We noticed that you registered for one guest and you checked in with three, this would be why you didn't have enough towels. Any of our management could have rectified this situation. We have noticed that you did not read the welcome message or directions page, this would have helped you dramatically. Thank you to the 1400 people before you that gave us 5 star reviews!

The town was just getting over a major hurricane with debris everywhere. Our building and grounds were clean and ready to go. Check in was easy and the staff was great. Wonderful job, it couldn't have been easy.

Fantastic stay!
Beautiful property, clean rooms and quiet. Absolutely loved the decorations. Had so much fun and definitely will come back. They provide all the goodies for fun at the beach. Great location with a few really good restaurants near by. Stephanie was super helpful. If I could make one tiny suggestion for the owners, there are only two wagons for hauling your chairs/coolers/umbrella and such to the beach. Guests tend to hide them in their rooms overnight to make sure they have one the next day. Adding a couple would be nice. Not super important, just convenience. Can't wait to come back!

You don’t want to know.
Proximity to beach was great. The unit was clean and had an updated beachy decor. The property manager was helpful and friendly.. That being said, the property was not worth the price. The bed was uncomfortable. We could not get the TV to work properly. The toilet was so small that it seemed like it was made for a toddler. The walls were paper thin. We respectfully would not go back. Our primary focus was to see an ailing relative and we were just happy to land a place during the busy spring break break season . If our purpose was solely a romantic weekend for two, we would have been really disappointed!!

First time to Manasota Key
Property was perfect! All you need to bring are your clothes and food everything else is supplied by the host. Even beach chairs and beach towels! Property was very clean and beautifully decorated. The walk to the private beach was just across the street through an easement. We also used the grill for steaks and it was full of propane and very clean! This property is one of the best we’ve stayed in. And we had great weather 80’s and sunny each day.
