I stayed here previously with some friends and absolutely loved it. I took my family there this time around and they loved it just as much! Great place to stay and walking distance to the beach!

This was the perfect place to spend the last two days of our Florida vacation. Very clean, had everything we could need, and all of the beach items were great. A quick walk to the beach and very quiet at night. We would love to stay here again in the future! The bottle of wine and cold beers in the fridge were the cherry on top after a day of travel!

Single mom traveling with two teenage girls. Needless to say, I wanted a safe place that was really close to the beach. This place was perfect in every way. Jen and Eddie have thought of Everything! There were even snacks and cold drinks to revive the weary traveling teens. Another family stayed in the adjacent unit, but we did not hear them at all. Nighttime was so peaceful. There were super fancy beach chairs and an umbrella that did not blow away or flip inside out - already packed into a beach cart! The bicycles were adorable and fun. Bring a backpack so you can haul your souvenirs back from the surf shop on the bike. I could go on and on. This place is amazing and we had a wonderful time!

We had a wonderful stay in Englewood. The unit is very clean, bright and cheery. It is stocked with everything you need for a fun vacation. Jen went above and beyond with a few surprises upon check in that were a very nice touch and made us feel welcome. We met our neighbors and had fun kayaking and paddle boarding on Lemon Bay. The beach is also a quick walk. Everyone is town was very friendly and welcoming as well. I highly recommend staying here and would not hesitate to stay again if I’m ever back in Englewood!

Had a fantastic trip and our stay at Jen’s place helped make it a great weekend! Property was clean and great convenient location to local restaurants and beaches. The amenities on the property (especially use of the bikes) made for an easy way to get around. Would love to stay here again! Jen was very easy to communicate with and helpful also!

Everything was absolutely gorgeous! It was so close to the beach and cute restaurants! The water is gorgeous and we got to see dolphins as well! This is the perfect place to vacation with your significant other! Thank you for everything!

If this place is available, look no further! Updated and adorable, clean and so comfortable! We were there in May 2022 and it was quiet, even with another family next door. The air was on, ready for us. The sheets were soft and already on the bed! TVs in both bedrooms and the living space. The photos really do not do this place justice. Walking distance to the beaches and a gear-stroller is ready to go! There are coolers here, so you don’t need to bring even a collapsible one. Beach towels, too. Not one complaint. I don’t think you’ll have one either, but if you do, the owners are super responsive. This place is so stinkin’ cute!

We loved our stay at Shorebirds on Manasota. We discovered a new key, adorable and small peninsula. We loved the bikes, kayaks and paddle boards, the house was so quaint and clean and the grounds even better. Thank you Jen!

Perfect place to spend a vacation. Cozy. Clean. Decorated to give that ocean side feel. Bikes, kayaks, fire pits close to restaurants and beach. It has everything you need!
