Island Oasis on Manasota Key- Steps to both Gulf & Bay Access, Heated Pool

The house is spacious and very clean. The beds were comfortable with several pillows. The kitchen is well appointed and had all we needed to cook several meals together. There were plenty of towels and linens. The air conditioning worked better than most places we have stayed in Manasota Key. It did not struggle in the mid day heat, it stayed the correct temperature all day. The pool was clean and the whole family enjoyed it daily. The walk to the bay is very short and the dock is great for fishing. We had a friend stop by with his boat and dock briefly. It isn't super boat friendly but we managed fine. The beach is eroding in that area and the walk is longer from the house to the ocean, but it was doable. We walked down the beach a little and were able to find a good spot. I assume they will likely refurbish that area soon. The garage was nice to have and full of stuff to use at the beach and there was plenty of parking. We only had two cars but even that has been an issue at some places we have stayed and this house has the garage plus several outside spaces. We stayed with my parents and our two teenagers and the house had plenty of space for all of us. The grill is by the pool and very convenient. Nice outside seating. The manager was extremely helpful with any questions we had and very quick to respond. We would definitely stay here again.

Big, comfortable house with plenty of things to use inside and outside of the home - all of the amenities! The pool and hot tub are wonderful to unwind in after a day on the easily accessible beach! Highly recommend!

This was a spacious, comfortable home. The kitchen had every amenity you could possibly need and all the other rooms are comfortable and well stocked. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub with a comfortable lanai and patio table. It us a short walk to the beach and quiet and peaceful. We had a couple of small issues and the host was extremely responsive and concerned. She was additionally very flexible in our stay dates I would definitely recommend and use this rental in the future.

Location to beach was great! Owners response time was great and eager to help. The home was very roomy. It could use a little TLC and deep clean but this would not prevent me from coming back. We had a great time with grandkids! Thank you for sharing your home!

Very nice relaxing home and area.

We had a very nice stay at the Island Oasis. The house is roomy and the patio, heated pool and hot tub were great. The beach access was conveniently just across the street. Quiet neighborhood.

Great place to stay, easy to get to every place in the area.

Great location with beach access and tons of great items included (kayak, beach wagons beach toys and chairs, towels etc.) loved the heated pool and hot tub & that the home was not in a busy zone, was away from lots of hustle and bustle.

Everything was amazing. Location is perfect. Short walk to ocean. This house has everything you need for an amazing vacation. Would definetly rent again. 10 out of 10

Home was listed as a 4 bedroom actually only has 3,owner counted the sleeper sofa in living room as a bedroom.We were informed a few hours that the Hot tub was broken and a new one was ordered owner said the pool heat was turned up to compensate.Upon our arrival we discovered there was no fourth bedroom,the pool was not functional due to low water level below skimmer.It was evident that the pool was not cleaned,filled,sanitized or heated and made ready. Now onto the ant infestation that the owner acknowledges and makes excuses for and do not go outside at night before turning lighting on to scare the incredible number of Roaches away first! I asked the owner to reduce the cost to that of a compareable 3 bedroom home with no amenities and her response was our bad luck and said she would refund us a paltry 250. This is absolutely not what we expected from all our previous rentals through VRBO!

Loved our stay. Would definitely recommend.

We rented this property for 5 nights while visiting friends in the area. The house was beautiful and located a very short walk to the private neighborhood beach. We also enjoyed the heated pool and utilized the gas grill provided. The owner was good about responding to inquiries. This included graciously allowing us to have our 2 small dogs stay with us (we requested in advance). Englewood wasn't busy when we visited, so our stay was truly relaxing and low key...Just perfect!

It is a lovely open plan home. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and silverware. Kiddos complained that the pool was too hot. It gets direct sun and a hot July made it uncomfortable.
