Great location

Just as described; access to the beach is a short walk away. Restaurants are a mile and a half. We walked to avoid having to find parking.

Clean and friendly

We enjoyed our stay! We loved being near the beach and seeing dolphins on our walk. The hosts were very quick to respond to our questions. The other guests were very friendly and were repeat customers. The island is recovering from hurricane, but this place is in great shape and the beach is beautiful.

This property was perfect. So cute and clean. It was perfect for two of us to crash after spending the day at the beach.

Get away

A short trip with my mom and my sister at the last minute, to get away after our dad passed away a few weeks ago. Unit was exactly as pictured, easy to get to, super clean, had everything we needed.We were surprised to see the devastation on the key after the hurricane's last year(don't know why). The beach is not the same and there was not a lot of sand area to setup near us. However, that did not lessen our overall experience. We are grateful to everyone rebuilding and repairing.

Great location!

Everything was as described! Clean, close to everything, easy to contact the hosts and the arrival gift was a pleasant surprise! If you plan to stay, you will not be disappointed! The beach is right across the street! Restaurants all within walking distance or short drive. My only suggestion to the hosts would be to number the units with the building number too. We had unit 1A, I went to the wrong Unit A at first and didn't realize it until another couple staying told us the other building was 1. Not a huge deal, just a thought 😎

Nice place, great owners

We spent a week at this property. It worked very well for the 2 of us. It was nicely equipped with everything we needed. We had a lot of questions for the owners. They responded immediately and never made us feel like we were bugging them. Scot and Paula were very generous in accommodating a special request - having a few of our parents' friends for dinner (all octogenarians) because the owner of the unit they were staying in considered it a party and wouldn't allow it. The only reason I rated the location 4 stars is because the unit is right on the main street, but that's a lot of Manasota Key.

3 Stars

For the cost, we expected this to be more of a 4 or 5 star experience. I had some issues that I attempted to address with the property manager privately on check-out day like: getting a call at the time of check-in informing us the electronic door lock was broken to the front door, the toilet and sink were leaking in the middle of the night in the only restroom, and there was dog hair present. But the property manager only addressed the leaking toilet and sink, without any apology, no making it right, and accusing me of going against VRBO policies. As I told the property manager, I would expect (as I’m sure future guests would as well), that everything is working and cleanly as listed. Unfortunately that was not the case for us on our visit.

Starfish Stays

My husband and I spent 3 weeks in Unit 1A of Starfish Stays. The property manager, Stephanie, greeted us at the car and helped us carry our luggage up the stairs to the unit. She is so friendly and helpful. The unit was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed, including beach towels, chairs, umbrella, fishing rods, and beach toys for children. There were plenty of extra bathroom supplies, such as towels of all sizes and toilet paper, bath soap, hand soap, and even a small tube of sunscreen! The kitchen was well supplied with all the essentials we needed. We couldn’t figure out how the TV worked but a phone call to the owners cleared that up. The ceiling fan in the front bedroom is noisy, so we didn’t turn it on. The rug in the living room has a turned up corner - it just needs to be spun around so that corner is in a place where nobody can trip over it. We love Starfish Stays, and have already booked our stay for next year!

Beautiful and Peaceful

This condo was beautiful and in a very peaceful setting. I was looking for a place to escape to for my first wedding anniversary since my husband died, and this spot was amazing. Particulars to help you decide to rent this location: * Kitchen is fully stocked with plates, silverware, pots, skillets, bowls, cups, mugs, serving utensils, spices, a Keurig, a teapot, a full size refrigerator with a freezer drawer, an oven, and a microwave. *Dining room has a table with four chairs. It is a glass top table with placemats and cloth napkins. *Living room has a sofa and a love seat and large screen TV mounted on the wall. There is a Monopoly, Jenga, Taboo game and two decks of cards. The TV has cable. *Both bedrooms have a comfortable bed with quality sheets. Each bedroom have tile floors, a large closet (bring your own coat hangers, there were only a couple in the house), and extra pillows. There is also a full size dresser in each bedroom. *The bathroom has a tub and shower with a frosted glass window. *There is a linen closet right outside the bathroom with towels, handtowels, wash clothes, beach towels, sheets, extra duvet covers. The towels are the most amazingly soft towels I've ever used (I actually came home and bought some for my home). *Additionally, this unit is on the second level, which is not easy to ascertain from the unit description (but it's completely okay, just something to be aware of if you have mobility issues). You can bring animals, which was wonderful. There are several access points to the beach (both public and private) within easy walking distance. The closest point is about a 3 city block walk. The beaches are great to pick up shark teeth and beautiful shells. *The owner of the property was wonderful. The response time to any message was never more than 30 minutes. And the information provided was thorough, but more importantly, I was never made to feel like I was bothering them. To sum it all up, this property is amazing. You cannot go wrong staying here. I have never been so pleased to leave a review as I am to leave this one.
