Perfectly Located on Manasota Key with Close Beach to Bay Access

Everything we needed inside, quiet neighborhood, close to all the favorite restaurants and beaches on Manasota Key.

We recently booked for 31 night stay & left after 5 nights! Place is 24 years old & needs repairs & updating! Our suggestions to any one who wants to rent this condo, should view it first to form your opinions, as we left with a very sour taste in our mouth!! Sad that our vacation we had looked forward to was ended due to condo's conditions.

The location of this condo is perfect! The public beach is still closed due to hurricane damage but we still had access and also a short drive to several other beaches. The heated pool was very nice too! Many nice restaurants a short drive away and several bars within walking distance.The only downfall was not being able to use a grill. We love to grill so it was a bit disappointing. It seems like there could be a community grill at the pool for use.Jay is a wonderful host and very quick to respond to any questions we had. It was nice to have a garage and an extra parking space for visitors. The condo was very well appointed with everything we needed for our stay. We hope to return! Thanks Jay!

Because of a death in the family, we were only able to stay 3 weeks of our 4 week reservation. This was a very well -stocked condo with a great location. Our big disappointment was the lack of the pool heater because a part had not been shipped. Consequently, it was impossible to swim. I’m not sure when a new dock will be built because many residents are still focusing on returning to their condos because of the recent hurricane. Shark tooth hunting was great, but fishing, not so much. With the hurricane and recent red tide, maybe our timing was not so great. The owner was easy to work with.

Manasota Key is the place to stay! Beaches, bars & restaurants, biking & walking. Condo is nice, right size & features. All Good! Owner responds quickly, like when I locked myself out of garage LOL

Great. Will consider staying there again

My family of four, including 2 small children, had a fantastic stay!! We found the condo in clean condition and it far exceeded our expectations. This location is perfect! Steps away from a salt water pool, 2 minute walk from beautiful Gulf waters, and less than 5 minutes to walk to local restaurants and convenience store. We were very satisfied with the property and all the amenities. The dumb waiter was extremely helpful and my 2 year old was amazed by it. The master closet is so large, we used it as the toddler’s room. :) Additionally, the small sun room made the perfect office for my husband to work remotely. The owner, Jay, responded almost immediately to all of my messages and was eager to help answer questions we had. We took advantage of the boogie board, fishing pole, and bikes left in the garage. It was a blessing to not have to pack those large items in our van! My husband took up “shark teeth hunting” as a new hobby during our stay and we now have over 300! The other beaches in the area are also incredible and we especially enjoyed the diversity of shells and sand. We quickly realized why this area is often referred to as a Hidden Gem. This has truly been a most memorable month for our family and we will forever hold Manasota Key and Live Oak in our hearts. We hope to make this an annual tradition.

Live Oaks #22 has a peek-a-boo view of Lemon Bay and is across the street from Englewood beach. Short walk to fish, beach, restaurants and bars. The 2/2 condo is fully equipped to do any these activities or stay in and cook or picnic at the pool.

Jay made us feel right at home. He made sure we had everything we needed and gave us good tips on places to eat and fish. I will be back for sure. I highly recommend this as a place to stay and I want to thank Jay for a great time. Rob Snyder

Great location! Beach is across the street! Restaurants and live music within walking distance. Condo was well appointed and the dumb waiter was a bonus! Stairs could be a problem for some people. Thanks Jay
