The house was clean and in a great location. We kept a boat at the dock all week, and would also walk across the dirt road to the beach. Very relaxing setting.
We loved our time and the secluded beach access. Home layout is perfect for a family. No close neighbors and 2 minutes will be plenty to walk to the beach! A
Lovely..clean..well equipped and completely private!
We use vrbo often to book our vacations and shorter get aways. This home in gated community was such a great time away for both of us abd our dog. Beach access and privacy were highlights to our stay at this clean comfortable maintained property! Thank you to owners who made everything nice for our stay! Sandra & Scott
This was the perfect place for my husband and I and our 2 dogs! The gated community had little cars so it was quiet and peaceful!
The house was clean and had everything we needed including bikes and pool floats.
We were very happy and definitely would go back
Overall thoroughly enjoyed the property, conveniently located and had a wonderful stay. Neighborhood is very quiet and the beach is very private. Our dog enjoyed the beach as much as we did. Beds were very comfortable. Kitchen could have a few more plates and silverware. No other complaints.
Check in and communication, we had no issues. House is in a private gated area which was great because public parking and beach were within walking distance. There was some traffic during the day as thereâs construction on a home just down the road but the construction workers were very respectful. The house is nice, not many personal touches, no rugs, only a couple pictures on the walls but that wasnât an issue. House could use a deep cleaning, but otherwise was clean. Bed was comfortable. View of the bay was great and so peaceful, great place to drink coffee at sunrise. Thereâs no view of the gulf side but itâs literally just across the road. The dock is in serious need of repairs, Iâm assuming hurricane damage. Should be sure footed while walking on dock and definitely not for small children. House has lots of parking, pool was great and enjoyable. Kitchen pretty well stocked with supplies. There werenât many extras in the house (sheets, blankets, pillows or pillow cases, etc) but they did provide beach towels and of course bath towels. Beach equipment was ok. Bicycles were great to ride on but you canât take them out of the gated area, only in the neighborhood. Tv service is spotty, but that was explained before booking so we expected that. Best restaurant we found was The Crows Nest, food was phenomenal and service excellent! We enjoyed the house and would definitely stay again.
We loved staying at the flamingo house. It was just what we needed. We were able to fish off the dock, off the beach and find tons of shark teeth. The beach was pretty empty in the evening which was really nice for sunset walks. And the hosts were very responsive and had all the small touches you might need when traveling. In
The house and furniture are old but in great shape. Itâs perfect for a boat and fishing and the beach is right across the road. What better to cool off after a hot day of outdoor activities than a nice dip the pool.
Our vacation in the Flamingo House was wonderful! The adults & teenagers alike loved their stay. With easy access to the beach, the dock on the bay and the spacious pool, all bases were covered! Seeing iguanas & gopher tortoises were an added bonus! The house was spacious and well stocked! Would definitely stay again!!
Hosts very responsive. Pool was great. Kitchen well stocked. Great indoor/outdoor access. Many trips to Manasota Key. Granddaughters liked this house the best.
Private yet convenient to beach, restaurants and shopping. Spent a lot of time on the dock, in the pool and enjoying sunsets. Everything you need to make yourself at home. Our 1 year old Golden was comfortable the first time she came through the door. Hung out by the pool and the dock like she owned the place. The biggest compliment. They know. Would return in a heartbeat!
The house was great for us - it was me/husband, my mom and for part of the time her friend, plus two dogs. The area is quiet & secluded, it feels like you're in nature with the mangroves out back and gopher tortoises roaming in the yard. We even watched an eagle hunting/fishing in the intracoastal. The beach is a short walk over the dunes. Our only minor disappointment is that the pool didn't heat quite warm enough for us to use.
Rare find- private beach home in secure area of Manasota Key
Beautiful home in a private gated area on north end of Manasota Key, yet just minutes from shopping, restaurants, attractions, etc.
The home was well furnished, and supplied with everything renters need. It was as clean as any rental I have seen. The heated pool was comfortable and clean, and the pool area is enclosed in a screen-in lanai.
A large group of manatee congregated around the pier on the bay side of the property and the beautiful Manasota Key beach is just steps away from the house.
The property is well kept up and the manager responds quickly if there are any concerns. This is a terrific vacation property, and we hope to be able to return to enjoy it again in the future.
Our stay was fantastic. The owners are very quick to respond and very helpful. Location was close enough for plenty of things to do and far enough away to enjoy some peace and quiet by the pool. Highly recommended if this is what you are looking for. So relaxing!
This was the absolute best house for our family!!! Beach, bay, fish, dolphins, turtles, lizards and crabs! It was nice to have the beach and pool as options for the day. I cannot say enough about the owners! Extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the area. They even gave us insider info for my daughter to view baby sea turtles hatching ! We would love to stay here againâŁïž
The house is as advertised. As the photos show the decor is a bit stuck in the 1980s. That being said, the house is very comfortable, has a wonderful bay view, and the owners are very responsive to questions/issues. I would recommend installing a ceiling fan above the table on the pool deck. This would have made sitting outside in the heat easier. The walk to the beach wasn't too bad but not ideal for the older person in our group. Overall a very nice stay.
After utilizing VRBO and having great response in allowing others to experience the beauty of Belize and stay at our home on the Caribbean Sea, we decided to share another beautiful location, Manasota Key. We purchased our first home on Manasota Key 25 years ago and have never left the area. We have three rental homes in Belize, Central America and three on Manasota Key. The trend towards families renting private homes rather than staying in hotels has increased dramatically in the past year. Our Family has actively been pursuing and renovating prime island properties perfect for a family vacation. Our recent college graduate sons are working fulltime to select, renovate, and market our One Palm Properties vacation homes and are committed to providing your family with a terrific vacation location.
The most amazing location - Located on the bay with a dock in the backyard and the beach directly across the street. Located in the private gated area on the north end of the key to provide for privacy and escape from the crowds.
