Drain flies, to medium size bugs that would scatter under the fridge when you turned on the light, to cockroaches. If you like bugs, look no further. We actually left with 4 days still on our rental because of the flies/bugs/cockroaches. There were definitely other issues with this being an older rental (AC either on full blast or off completely, clicking ceiling fans, TV malfunctioning, etc.). Couple positives, it was close to the ocean and restaurants. ##### Richard P. Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrea Dec 10, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!! I loved the cute decor, the appliances seemed brand new. The cleanliness was superb. I really liked the screened in front porch too. The cottage is small but it was what I expected. Even though the bathrooms and bedrooms are tight, the host has made great use of available space. There are plenty of hooks and shelves so I had enough room for my toiletries(I don't have an overwhelming amount). I thoroughly enjoyed the small town feel of Manasota Key. The beaches aren't crowded and we never had to fight traffic. The host was wonderful to send us suggestions of things to see and do during our stay. I enjoyed the welcome tray so much---thank you!! I even have ordered the same brand coffee for myself at home because I liked it so much. We will stay here again if we ever get back to the area. ##### Andrea Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Krystal C. Oct 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Never knew you had to check OUT of heaven I cant say enough about how amazing our stay was!! Everyone was so attentive, understanding, and genuinely care about teir guest. I had some issues arise not with them but just some personal things and I can't say enough about the concern abd care expressed towards my personal situation. The only drawl back , if it would be one to even be concerned about would be the seating in the first cottage we stayed. Could have been a small love seat to accommodate a 4th person. Personally, i cab sit on my couch at home ;) i was ( not) disappointed we stayed another 2 night at another property on the north side. I will most certainly be back!!! For many years to come. Thank you for having us!!! I do want to Personally apologize, we woke up late i was so worried about our flight Id forgotten to leave a tip. :( - sorry guys ##### Krystal C.

Aug 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Great location with a 3 minute walk to the beach or harbor side. The house has everything you need for a great vacation. Manasota Key is a great little island with great food and friendly people. ##### Andrew H.
