Waterfront Bella Vista, pool & near beach

The place was nice. Clean and fully stocked in the kitchen. Only negative is that the porch is closed in and you cannot sit out there and enjoy the view and fresh air. It’s more of a mini hotel than a residence. Lots of signs everywhere telling what not to do.

Great location and private access to the beach close by was a huge plus. Public parking at Manasota key beaches can be HORRIBLE during high season even on weekdays. It was super nice to have access to the beach only a short walk away and not have to go fight for a parking spot down the road.

Great location! The place was clean and tidy; plenty of everyday supplies. Property was well-maintained. Wonderful place to stay.

Exceeded expectations! The property manager was so outgoing, friendly and accommodating! The unit was very well stocked with all needs/equipment for use of the full kitchen, and the unit even included a washer & dryer which was an added bonus. The sunrise views from the dining table were outstanding. They go the extra mile to be sure everything in and around the property is welcoming and clean!

Pool was great, nice and clean. Short walk to a beautiful beach where we found lots of shark teeth. Lots of food options close by. Place is beautiful as pictured.

This property is in a perfect location with a view of the bay and a quick walk to the beach. Pictures of the property are a little outdated but otherwise property is pretty clean.

Just what we needed for a weekend getaway! Wish there was a second bathroom but

The house, having 4 additional rental units not listed in the description, is located at the end of a very narrow drive/pathway; online pictures were not current. Our unit was a beautifully open concept upper facing the bay. We had two impactful issues affecting our stay causing the low star rate. Upon our arrival after 4pm we encountered ALL of the allotted parking spaces taken to include a large truck/trailer combo in one of them blocking the small parking area. Once in our unit, we discovered cleaning was unfinished; used dirty gloves were on the kitchen counter, wet towels on the floor in the bathroom, full can of bathroom garbage, the king sized bed in one of the bedrooms had no sheets or comforter on the bed, and wet towels & bedding left in the washing machine. We called the service who contacted Elena who advised us she had car trouble and was coming back to the property to finish, which she did. More impacting was the first two days we endured workers operating a front loader, sledge hammers, and other tools busting up patio concrete cement/blocks UP AGAINST the house directly in the pool area. Loud banging all day, house shaking; we couldn't enjoy the pool, view, or have any peace. Contacted the owner, Amy, received no response. Lost two days of vacation. Reached out again to Amy upon our return home and still no response. While we loved Manasota Key, our stay at Bella Vista was negatively impacted with no compensation from the owner.

Super cute Inn....great morning views of Lemon Bay. Pool was refreshing....beach was a short walk away. Hostess had great towels, beach chairs, and pull carts. Kitchen was VERY well equipped. Even had a glass pitcher for our margaritas! Only thing I would suggest was the bar soap provided was a small round sample-type soap. So, bring your own body wash. It was a lovely stay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I traveled with my daughter and grandson for a celebration of life for my brother who passed away in July held in Venice, Fl. The condo was a peaceful retreat for us, when we were away from the family.
