WHAT OUR GUESTS ARE SAYING

It’s Been 3 Weeks And I’m STILL Talking About It
This has got to be one of the BEST places we’ve stayed. Immediately felt at home and the little touches made a huge difference. The additional things that come with the location make this a fantastic stay. Our daughters took out the kayak and had a close experience with lots of dolphins. They will always remember the experience. The bikes were used every morning and we stopped by their restaurant to enjoy b’fast and lunch 3 days of our trip. The beach was not far and we found many teeth. Such a fantastic trip. I will be booking again.

A Wonderful Time At Beachcomber
My family and I had the most wonderful time at the Beachcomber in Manasota!! This property is immaculate! Everything was spotless when we arrived. What a pleasure to stay here. All the surroundings so well kept and just impeccable. Truly the owners know how to run and keep their lovely property. Thank you Carol!

Wonderful Spot!
This property was in a great location: it was super close to the beach and close enough to bike or walk to restaurants, but not too close to the "downtown" area so that it was still really quiet and peaceful at night. We could hear the waves from the porch! The accommodations were immaculate - super clean and organized with absolutely everything you might need. Carol was a wonderful and gracious host, and we were so happy that our dog Cody was welcome too. We've already recommended this location to our family and friends and hope to be able to come back sometime soon ourselves! Thank you!

Paradise At The Beach
This was a picture perfect vacation - after years of searching for the right paradise to return to annually we finally found it! Cozy and quiet - with lush landscaped grounds, every detail has been considered. The property is immaculate, organized, well stocked, comfortable and oh so close to the beach! Bikes, boogie boards, chairs, umbrellas, beach carts, beach towels and everything you need for a day at the ocean. Seriously, just bring flip flops and bathing suit and some sunscreen - and the rest is on site, waiting for you! Carol is a responsive and helpful host. We had a problem with one of the TV remotes and she replaced it in a flash. She helped us with local recommendations, especially the local free Stumpy shuttle to restaurants and more - a must! The welcome book and appliance guide were an event planner's (me) dream come true. The beachcomber's new restaurant on the bay was delightful for breakfast and lunch. The trading post had plenty of fun beach items too. Groceries were a breeze just over the bridge, easy to fill out the fridge. Oh - and - Don't miss the locals celebrating sundown with the sounding of the conch shells! We will be back - again and again - can't wait!

Perfection
We stayed 4 nights and loved everything about this place. We walked maybe 1/8 of a mile to the beach daily and used the provided beach carts, chairs, umbrella to get us and our stuff back and forth. We walked about 1/2 mile to the nearby restaurants and enjoyed music every night. The bungalow is quiet, clean and has everything needed to relax and recharge. Thank you for creating this place for us to enjoy!

Top Notch!
Surf’s Up is the cleanest, brightest, most organized condo that we have ever stayed in! The owners have decorated (both inside and outside ) to make this condo super cute and comfortable! Close beach access, bikes, kayaks, fire pit, and great porch make it perfect. Good communication with the owner…walking distance to some restaurants and a short drive to get groceries and to visit other restaurants. We would love to come back!

Great Location, Property And Amenities
Stayed in Seagull Landing, 1080 Gulf Drive, great location at end of island one block off beach, very close to state park. Having the bikes, beach gear, and kayaks to use was a nice perk. Best part about property is that the owners take extra care to make sure all is well with your stay. Glad to know about this place and all the others that are part of Beachcomber of Manasota Key. Would like to return and stay in one on the beach in the future!

Fantastic Place To Stay On Manasota Key!
All of their properties are first class and spotless. We stayed at a fourplex which was immaculate and decorated beautifully. The owners live nearby and were very accommodative to our needs and questions, not to mention how friendly they were! We had everything we needed for a beach vacation, and then some. We would highly recommend Beachcomber of Manasota Key for a truly wonderful vacation!

What A Wonderful Experience!!!!
Carol was in contact with me before and after we arrived. She gave recommendations and what to expect. When we arrived there was a welcome basket and a book of recommendations. The condo was well stocked with equipment (bikes, kayaks, chairs and even an umbrella) and kitchen supplies. Stump Pass Beach was a 5 minute walk away. There are outside showers to wash off when you get back.Cannot recommend Carol enough 😊

Every Aspect Of Our Stay Exceeded Our Expectations!
From the accommodations, the amenities, the special gift basket, the beach access, the available recreational items (bikes, kayaks, beach chairs, umbrellas), it was all 5 star. Communication before, during, and after our stay was top notch. It gave me peace of mind knowing what to expect ahead of time as well as knowing that someone was available if we needed anything. Location was great for local activities and restaurants. My family had a wonderful time and we can’t wait to come back!

We had the most wonderful girlfriend meet up at Barefoot Bliss! Very well appointed 2 bedroom, 2 bath cottage just a short walk to a gorgeous beach, We felt like royalty as Carol, owner/ manager told us she wanted to make sure we enjoyed our beach getaway…so she had stocked the fridge with refreshments! So sweet and made the trip more special! There are kayaks, paddle boards, beach chairs, umbrellas- everything you could possibly need for a wonderful experience! Could not have been better!

Serenity
The feeling when we pulled up was, this feels comfy. Going inside we were impressed by the cleanliness and loved the beach decor. It was a short and shady walk to the beach. My friend and I took her mother with us and we all loved the peaceful stay. We were on our first shark tooth hunting adventure. Sure enough in one day we found over a 100 between 2 of us! There is a "toy box" that had almost anything you could want for a day on the beach. I used the sturdy sand sifter all day to hunt for teeth. Also, there is an excess of shells that wash up daily. Really an interesting beach to explore and happy place to stay! There are a few restaurant/bars a few blocks away and we were not disappointed. A great time was had by all!

Relaxing Weekender
Manasota Key is one of our favorite home away from home places to visit and relax! This was our first stay at this property and we were very impressed! The attention to details and the welcoming atmosphere was top notch! Comfortable, cozy and quiet and just a few minutes walk to the beach. Loved the bikes and enjoyed cooking outside on the grill. Will most definitely return and highly recommend!

Clean, Private, Right On The Ocean
My wife and I were very happy with Sandy Shores Retreat "Beachcomber" property. The location is fantastic, being right on the seawall and just feet to the ocean. The property was well maintained and very clean. Inside the paint was crisp, the bed comfortable, the décor was very nice, the A/C was Ice Cold, and everything you could possibly need was supplied for you, along with complimentary beers, wine, snacks. What an amazing place. We will be back for sure.

Wonderful First Time In Manasota
This was our first time in Manasota Key and it was amazing. The property was absolutely great! Completely stocked and every little detail taken care of. Carol, the host of Beachcomber properties, was exceptional. We tried out their food truck at the entrance of the island and greatly recommended… early breakfast by the water with good food and coffee cannot be beat! We traveled with our beagle and we found there is a dog beach in South Venice (about 20 min away) and had a great day. We will back!

One of Our Best Vacations
My husband and I just had the most wonderful vacation at the Beachcomber in Manasota Key. Our cottage, Periwinkle Place, was perfect…the pre-arrival instructions were very well done and helpful, the cottage was decorated with the perfect beach motif, a welcoming basket full of goodies added to feeling most welcome. It’s truly a 3 minute walk to the beautiful beach. Beach carriers, chairs and umbrellas are provided. Wonderful restaurants are within a short drive…5-10 minutes. Put Magnolia’s on the Bay on your “must go” list! We’ll definitely return to Periwinkle Place! 5 stars!

Wonderful Vacation Spot!
Wonderful vacation spot! We visited with two adults and two teenage girls, and the size was perfect for us. The girls loved the snack basket on arrival and we enjoyed the drinks. The house was outfitted with almost every item you could need. We drove a distance so it was nice that there were so many things we didn't have to pack. From kitchen items, spices, board games, sand toys, kayaks and so much more! The whole place was very neat and clean, updated and comfortable. The beach was a very short walk, the bay was up the street to launch kayaks, we saw dolphins several times very close, we saw baby turtles leaving their nest in the state park. The girls found a jar of shark teeth, and tons of shells! Very great place to stay.

Perfect Getaway
We were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary(delayed from a canceled trip in January) and our daughter and her husband were celebrating their 1st wedding anniversary! This was a fantastic place for a quiet celebration! The place is just as it's listed in the description. The cabinets are stocked with all the essential kitchen items. There were some drinks in the fridge and snacks in the welcome basket too! They are quick to answer questions if they arise. Overall, a very wonderful week at What a View! We saw several sea turtle nests and even found a few shark teeth while there!

What A Wonderful Place To Stay!
Everything was super clean, organized, well maintained, and well stocked - fresh smelling linens/beach towels, bug spray, first aid kit, 2 coffee machines, snacks/drinks, etc. Every detail is taken care of. I would 100% recommend staying here, and this is coming from a person who is very fussy and particular and borderline OCD when it comes to cleanliness. Carol should teach classes to anyone who runs rental properties. THIS is how it should be done.

Truly A Retreat!
We are already thinking about next year! We have rented beach properties for years and this one topped the list for many reasons. The house is so nicely decorated and furnished - anything you would need has been thoughtfully provided throughout the kitchen, bathrooms, and outdoors. I won't even mention the little details so that you can be pleasantly surprised upon your stay. The location was great. Beach access is just across the street. It's a small, beautiful, and quiet beach. Just down the road is Stump Pass State Park. Be sure to use the kayaks to paddle to the point - it was one of our favorite memories from this trip, and the gracious hosts made it so easy to use and transport (thanks for the how-to in the book). We had our two tween/teens with us and Grandma who enjoyed hanging out at the pool. Carol, thank you for the wonderful stay and for being such a welcoming host.

Wonderful Stay!
We spent six days at the Pelican Perch and it was an outstanding stay. Every amenity we could have needed was provided: kayaks, life vests, bicycles, beach chairs, umbrellas, beach toys, paddle boards, kayak wheels, great kitchen amenities. The property was perfectly situated next to Stump Pass State Park where we did all of our beach outings and kayaking, and it was just a 3 minute walk from the property. In the evenings we rode bikes to the Sand Bar for dinner or cooked at home. I can't recommend this enough for a relaxing beach vacation. Our kids loved it too--especially the dolphins as we kayaked and the manatees in the gulf that we swam right up to! Many shark teeth and shells were collected. And many great memories were created!

Long Weekend Getaway
“What a View” was the perfect location for the getaway. Directly on the Gulf, the sound of the waves coming ashore and the gulf breeze provided for a nice relaxing long weekend. What a View retreat was beautifully appointed - you truly needed only your suit, flip flops and sunscreen. Carol thought of everything anyone could want or need and provided timely information prior to arrival/departure. The Welcome Basket was a nice personal touch as well as all the amenities within the retreat. Definitely a place I would return to. Thank you for a beautiful long memorable weekend.

Paradise!!
Awesome experience!!! Carol and Pete are prompt with responses and have taken care of everything you could possibly need for a trip! Very detailed directions for the entire process as well as directions in how to use all electronics, coffee pot, laundry, etc. the condo was extremely clean and updated. I loved the decor!!!. The grounds were absolutely beautiful and secluded, yet super close to the beach. We enjoyed the VERY short walk to the beach several times a day. Southern hospitality at its best. The people in the area are so friendly and welcoming which was a nice break from many other locations we have visited. We barbecued several times while there and enjoyed the huge seating areas out front and on the property. Thank you for the awesome gift basket of goodies and snacks as well as the adult beverages to start our vacation off. We will definitely be back!!!! Thank you again for absolutely everything! Keep up the awesome job!! Y’all are amazing!

* * * ~ ABOUT US ~ * * *
Pete & I both love the beach and all it has to offer! After lots of searching up and down the east and west coasts of Florida, we feel that we have discovered the best location for our beach retreats & bungalows in the quiet city of Englewood on Manasota Key. We have found our “little slice of paradise” and can’t wait to share it with you!
We are “living the dream” here on Manasota Key! Our days are filled...walks on the beach, shell & shark tooth hunting, swimming, friendly folks, watching the osprey, bike riding, kayaking, paddle boarding, boating with friends and watching some amazing sunsets. Everyday is an outdoor adventure day on Manasota Key!
Our north property was purchased in June 2016 and has 4 retreats. We have totally renovated inside & out. The best part about this property is the location to the beach...150 walking steps. We created a tropical oasis in the backyard with lush landscaping around 2 paver patios and our signature surfboard shower with hot & cold water.
Our south property was purchased in December 2016. We tackled renovations inside & out and were ready for our first guests in January 2017. The best part about this property is each retreat’s semi-private patio area that includes their own outdoor gas grill. For larger families or guests, we created a community area at the center of the property where they can gather to just relax, eat or hang out.
Beachcomber Bungalows is located between our south and north properties and was purchased in 2018. This location opened for guests in November 2019 after a year of extensive renovations. Each bungalow has its own semi-private outdoor area complete with outdoor seating and a gas grill.
Beachcomber of Manasota Key (Beachfront) is located directly on the beach! The best part about this gulf front location is the beautiful views of the water and wonderful sunsets.
Beachcomber Hideaways is located to the west of our Bungalows. Completely renovated inside & out, this property welcomed its first guests in February 2021. Set amid lush tropical plantings, the Hideaways are definitely “hidden away”!
Beachcomber Bayfront of Manasota Key is located on beautiful Lemon Bay. Enjoy your front row seat to each and every fantastic sunrise! This property was purchased in October of 2021 and has been hosting happy guests ever since.
Our Bayfront property also includes boat slips that can be rented when you book a stay at any of our properties. The slip rental includes electricity, ice, fish cleaning station w/running water, and trailer parking. Now you can bring your boat on vacation!
We have started our own property management company along the way to bring the “personal touch” to your vacation. From the moment you arrive at one of our retreats until the moment you leave, our goal is to ensure that you have the best possible vacation experience!
You will find yourself with wonderful memories that will make you want to return again and again!!!!
