Private Dock - Manatee Lookout by SeaBreeze Vacation

Couldn’t have asked for anything better! Manatees every day of our stay!

Stayed 3/24/26-3/28/26. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay as a family of 4 - 9yr old & a toddler. I always expect some dinginess to rentals but this house exceeded our expectations. Pictures of the pool & canal area don’t do it justice. Very conveniently located - beach access right around the corner & popular Pine Ave is an easy walk as well. I love that there was plenty of outdoor furniture/seating to choose from on the top balcony area as well as the pool area. The house felt very clean inside. Kitchen is well stocked with anything you could need to cook a meal and the grill was right outside the kitchen on its own little balcony which was super fun. They included 2 rolls of paper towels (the cheap kind but they worked), a roll of trash bags, dishwasher pods, laundry pods, dish detergent, new packaged sponge & dish towels. Plenty of soap etc. They had items you can use under the carport - stroller, wagon, pool toys and even kids’ life jackets. Neighborhood was quiet & peaceful. Pool was wonderful. Canal was so nice to sit at. We did see a manatee at one point. Overall such a nice stay. The SeaBreeze management company is top-notch. We had one issue upon arrival of the WiFi network not being available & a technician showed up promptly to fix the issue (which was simply a half-plugged cord). They were very communicative throughout our stay.

Great property, managed with a lot of care and attention to detail. Very supportive and available property management team.

This home is beautiful, with a quiet neighborhood and lots of room for guests to spread out and socialize. Pool is lovely. Within easy walking distance to Bean Point. Quiet neighborhood. Check in and check out instructions were thorough and clear and well marked.

I stayed at Manatee Lookout with three of my friends in October 2025. We absolutely loved the island as we had never been. I am so glad I had picked this location as we loved how it was quiet but we could still walk to Pine Street. The beach was less than five minutes, and the house was on a canal where we saw manatees. The house was perfect for four people. We will definitely go back and I would love to stay in this house again.

The location was great. The primary bedroom was very warm and didn’t cool down like the other rooms. Many outlets didn’t work inside or outside. We had to run the golf cart extension cord into the house one night. The bottom step on the outside stairs needs to be replaced. The house was nice, we had everything we needed.

Check in was super easy. Kitchen was nice but cookware was usable but only non stick pan was pretty beat up. Overall it was pretty nice. Plenty of dishes for everyone.

This was a great property for our family. The location is awesome,with a short walk to Bean Point beach and not having to struggle to find a parking place near the beach. The pool was a nice respite around 3pm, when the corner of the pool started to get afternoon shade. Pine Street also very close, making the morning coffee run to North Shore Cafe easy. True to it's name, we did see manatees right off the little dock that overlooks the canal.

Loved it overall. Stayed for a week. Nice the garage was covered on those rainy or extra sunny days, kept car cool. Spacious and very clean overall.The house and location was great. Quiet neighborhood, very family oriented. The beach is right down the street, so just walked every day to see the sunset. 3 bedrooms with their own bathrooms was nice. There were nightlights and the palm trees inside had their own spot lights that could be used as nightlights too. Washer & dryer and SeaBreeze leaves pods for the washer and dish washer. You honestly only have to pickup groceries and drinks, they pretty much cover everything else. Only once did we notice a bit of a smell while in the pool but it was low tide and it didn’t bother too much. Communicating went smoothly. Did try to do a late check out but I notified them that morning and then didn’t get back to me until the afternoon when ever other time communication was quick. The cleaning staff was already outside waiting in their vehicle almost an hour before check out & you see SeaBreeze trucks Checking to make sure guest have checked out and cleaning crews are present. Overall would love to rent again.

Amazing Stay!

Seabreeze vacations enabled my family and I to have a most enjoyable, memorable and relaxing holiday. The property was perfect for us, including our twin seven year old boys. We even heard the manatee off the private dock one evening, splashing in the water! We would love to return one day.

Sea Breeze went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. Every detail was thought out before arrival. Check in/out was seamless. They stayed connected with friendly notices and reminders to make sure our needs were met. The property was well maintained and lived up to its billing. Overall a great experience.

The property is cute and in a very quiet neighborhood with a lovely view of a canal in the back. Three bedrooms and bathrooms. The few maintenance issues we had were fixed promptly. Would recommend.

This home was nice for our family for the week. Great location on AMI. About a 5-7 minute walk to the beach. Beach access location is pretty quiet so was never super busy. Good size pool and screened in porch was very nice. Kitchen is stocked well for cooking. Plenty of bath and beach towels provided along with lots of beach chairs, a wagon, and tent. On the downside, during low tide, the canal directly behind the house smelled awful, so evening swims were out. We were also not able to enjoy the pool or outdoors after dark as there were zero working lights in or around the pool. We reported this on our first day and although maintenance showed quickly, they were not able to fix it so it remained an issue throughout our stay. Hopefully they are able to get this fixed before the next guests arrive.
