Mar 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Spacious and convenient Apartment 2D was clean and had plenty of room for the two of us. It was only 1.5 miles from the nearest restaurants and 2 miles from the southern access bridge to Manasota Key. The kitchen was nicely equipped and had a full size fridge. It was roughly a couple-hundred-yard walk to both the gulf and bay, but access to both felt somewhat intrusive as we had to navigate property easements to get there. The outdoor shower just outside the apartment door was great! A bathroom exhaust fan would be a nice addition, and we notified the owner that the television appeared was kaput. All things considered, we would stay here again. ##### Rodney F. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### edwin c. Nov 27, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cute, quaint, cozy Cute cozy studio. Only big enough for two. This unit is on the first floor so you can hear the footsteps of the renters above you. Also, finding the beach access is a bit difficult. You have to cross the street and walk along a busted up wood fence, careful with the broken down pieces on the ground, some have screws/nails sticking up. Just beyond the fence you cut over to your right and onto another rental property. Continue walking along the fence line until you get to the beach. It is a beautiful, quiet , private beach. We found several sharks teeth. All and all we had a wonderful stay. Also pet friendly! ##### edwin c. Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jon G.

I worry this could be an issue in case of emergency, especially if phone charge is low and during night, as it may be hard to find phone. It would be easier if the inside just had a turn lock. Thank you for being so prompt to answer all my questions! ##### Heather R. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Summer C.

The room is very clean and well decorated. They include coffee, dishes for use, utensils, beach towels and there are beach chairs and floaties for use if needed. They also include some very pleasant shampoo and conditioner amenities that's a nice bonus. The beach is not far and the access is shared by numerous properties in the area. There are plenty of restaurants in the area to try and people were very pleasant to talk to. The only thing I would say is that we could hear the upstairs neighbors walking around in their room very easily. But it wasn't bothersome enough to even consider not giving this place five full stars-as I dont think that is any fault of the owners, just the construct of the building. I can tell the owners have put alot of work into making this a nice place to stay that includes a full kitchen. Wish we could've stayed longer. ##### Summer C. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Westin Siray Bay Resort & Spa, Phuket](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-The-Westin-Siray-Bay-Resort-Spa.h3531567.Hotel-Information) > > [Mint House Nashville Marathon Village by Kasa](https://www.expedia.ca/Nashville-Hotels-Mint-House-Nashville-Marathon-Village.h113638452.Hotel-Information) > > [Lizard Creek Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Cranbrook-Hotels-Lizard-Creek-Lodge.h4399901.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Marina Suite - Poolside & Waterfront Condo](https://www.expedia.ca/Key-West-Hotels-Oceanfront-Oasis-Two-Bedroom-Aparthotel.h37116833.Hotel-Information) > > [Boutique Hotels in Fukuoka](https://www.expedia.ca/Fukuoka-Hotels-Boutique-Hotel.0-0-d6336957-tBoutiqueHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Broad Bean Cochin](https://www.expedia.ca/Kochi-Hotels-Broad-Bean-Cochin.h34313449.Hotel-Information) > > [Honeymoon Resorts and Hotels in Canada](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Canada-Honeymoon-Hotels.0-0-d31-tHoneymoonHotels.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hotels in Nipigon](https://www.expedia.ca/Nipigon-Hotels.d3000451656.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Sandcastle Resort At Lido Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-Sandcastle-Resort-At-Lido-Beach.h20959.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Cignano](https://www.expedia.ca/Cignano-Hotels.d6361206.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Lido Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-Lido-Beach-Resort.h34597.Hotel-Information) > > [Casey Key Resort - Gulf Shores](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-Casey-Key-Resort-Gulf-Shores.h15447995.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Colombia](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Colombia.d38.Hotel-Destinations) ### Flights > [Flights from Richmond (YVR) to Port Vila (VLI)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/vli/vancouver-to-port-vila) > > [Flights from North Canton (CAK) to Crescent City (CEC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/cak/cec/akron-to-crescent-city) > > [Flights from Morrisville (RDU) to Lübeck (LBC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/rdu/lbc/raleigh-to-lubeck) > > [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to Asmara (ASM)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/asm/toronto-to-asmara) > > [Flights from Salt Lake City (SLC) to Elko (EKO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/slc/eko/salt-lake-city-to-elko) > > [Flights from Richmond (YVR) to Québec City (YQB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/yqb/vancouver-to-quebec) > > [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to Ürümqi (URC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/urc/toronto-to-urumqi) > > [Flights from Texico (CVN) to Myrtle Beach (MYR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/cvn/myr/clovis-to-myrtle-beach) > > [Flights from Edmonton International Airport (YEG) to Tababela (UIO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/uio/edmonton-to-quito) > > [Flights from Richmond (YVR) to North Charleston (CHS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/chs/vancouver-to-charleston) > > [Cathay Pacific Mississauga (YYZ) to Chek Lap Kok (HKG) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/cathay-pacific-from-pearson-intl-to-hong-kong-intl/cx/yyz/hkg) ### Cars ### Activities ### General
