Bay Watch - Waterfront - Walk to beach and restaurants - Dock your boat

The condo is exactly as pictured - recently updated and with great view of lemon bay. We loved being able to walk to restaurants and enjoyed all the live music options.

Owner was great! Helped us get the boat slip. Was right on time giving us the code to get in, place was clean and nicely decorated. We really enjoyed our stay!

We absolutely loved our condo! I was so clean and had everything we needed. The Manatees come up to the end of our dock. That made our trip. Location couldn't have been any better. Beach was close and walking distance to the area bars and restaurants. John was so helpful, he got back to us right away if we needed anything. We will definitely be back to stay again Dori & Craig

The communication, cleanliness of the property and the view was amazing. If you are looking for a property this is the one. We can’t wait to go back next year. Thank you all again for the hospitality. You all are top notch.

This condo was perfect for all my needs. Restaurants nearby were good. All kinds of fishing places within easy reach, beach, bay, piers and jetties. Very comfortable place to stay.

The location of this condo is fabulous. You are in walking distance of many restaurants, beach access is close, and the view is gorgeous. John was very helpful and quick to respond. I would definitely stay here again.

My husband and I had a wonderful week at this condo. The screened porch was a wonderful way to spend the evening after a day on the beach. Everything you can possibly want is available…. if you don’t see something, you’re looking in the wrong place! The owner was even kind enough to arrange a week of 80 degree sunshine ?

Loved the view. Close to restaurants and beach.

Bay Watch is an end-unit second-floor condo on Manasota Key. The condo was clean when we arrived and John was very easy to communicate with. The unit faces Lemon Bay and has awesome views from the screened-in lanai. The private dock looks brand new and there are benches for guests to sit and enjoy the water. There's a grilling area and picnic benches for your use just a short walk away. The unit itself is older. The lanai screen needs replacing and the kitchen floor tiles are cracked, but it looks as if the owners are making gradual updates and improvements. The bedroom is spacious and the king bed was very comfortable. There are plenty of towels, hangers, closet space, and extra pillows if needed. The kitchen is well-equipped with stainless appliances and all the essentials for cooking meals. The bag of coffee from a local coffee shop was a nice welcome gift! The pool area is clean and inviting and access to the private beach is convenient and easy to get to. There are older beach chairs and an umbrella for guest use on the lanai. There is a laundry room adjacent to the condo building. These are coin operated machines. Most of the machines are well-used and older but clean. It costs 2.00 per wash and 2.00 per dryer. It's important to note that the machines only take quarters and there's no change machine or laundry item vending machine for detergent, etc., so you need to come prepared if you're going to do laundry. There are a variety of restaurants and entertainment venues within walking distance. You can hear the music from the condo at night, but it normally quiets down between 10 and 11 pm and didn't bother us at all. Our stay at Bay Watch was during the off-season, so it was very quiet which is exactly what we wanted. It also rained a lot but we enjoyed watching the rain storms from our lanai at night while sipping some wine! Overall this was an enjoyable stay with awesome views!

Kathy and I were able to have the most amazing time over the past two weeks!!! Thanks to John for making his condo available for us. He is the most accommodating host we have ever experienced and his place is everything thing he said it was and so much more!! I have already told many people that I know and several that we met while staying in Englewood, Florida. Again, I can't thank John enough.
