    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.

    I’d come again, but the area needs to rebuild. Nothing has been fixed since the hurricane.

    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.

    Very nice stay. Loved that it was so close to the beach. The lock system was a little confusing.
