- "Excelent place" - "This connected home was very clean and well stocked. My favorite thing about the home was the location. It is 1 block from the beach and less than that to Lemon Bay. The quiet community is peaceful yet close to everything." - "Manasota key was beautiful and private. This problem is about a block to the Gulf and about a block from the bay. It was clean and pleasant. Elena and Amy were great hosts. We did have a small problem with the AC, but they were easy to work with and got a resolved."

- "Very nice" - "This is our second year going to Manasota Key, and it did not disappoint! Our location was amazing: just a minute walk across the street to the beach, and free kayak use were our two favorite perks. The property was very quiet, and our studio had everything we needed. It was very cozy, perfect for a couple or a couple of besties! I would definitely stay here again!" - "This property is really perfect! Wish we had longer to stay and will definitely come back! Steps to water on either side. Don’t miss the sunsets on the beach to the west. To the east, Lemon Bay is just down the road. Be sure to notice the amazing garden 2 houses down the road - clearly a labor of love! Easy access to restaurants and activities, but still super quiet - the perfect balance. The furnishings and decorations in the Bay Breeze Bungalow are very comfortable and classy. The property is top notch!"

- "Visited Manasota Key on past trips and have come to love the area. Found Casa Mojit and gave it a shot. Priot to booking, reached out with a question which was promplty answered and I booked. Upon arrival, we were provided with a code to the door and were off to a great start. All the necessities were provided which helped with packaging. We did some shopping locally for some snacks, light meals, beverages and cocktails. Lots of great restaurants nearby which if you want are within walking distance or a short drive away. One of the great things about this place is the location. If you walk out and walk about .1 miles to the right, you are at the Gulf Of Mexico. If you walk to the left a slightly shorter distance, you are at Lemon Bay. If you walk to the other side of the Property down Friendship Lane at toward Lemon Bay, there are a few Benches to watch the sunrise over Lemon Bay as you sip your coffee. If you go towards the Gulf at sunset, you can grab a beach chair along with your favorite cocktail and enjoy the sunset. The property had all your beach essentials (chairs, umbrellas, beach toys, boogie boards, a coller.) One of the highlights was sifting through the beach sand looking for fossilized shark teeth which kept us busy part of the time. Another thing I loved was the access to the kayaks on the property. I went on a sunrise kayak and enjoys view. Overall a great place to stay. It did have a musty smell at first, but not horroble."

Bikes, kayaks & beach gear all provided. We had the best time kayaking & visiting as many beach spots that we could. We wanted to stay longer & do more! Great little hidden gem. I would definitely recommend your cottage & plan to come back." - "When you first walk in the condo you are invited by a nice fresh smelling and clean place. They thought of everything!! There were bikes to cruise around on, a beautifully landscaped back porch area with a firepit, there was also a grill that came in handy as well as a rinse off station with hot/cold water. If you needed anything the owners were very quick to respond. The beds were very comfortable and the A/C kept the place nice and cool no matter what the weather was outside."

They provided such wonderful instructions, it answered all questions for before, during, and after stay. I can’t wait to return and stay longer next time! We spent a lot of time on the beach each day!" - "My family has wanted to come to Manasota Key for many years and I am so thankful we found Shorebird!! We stayed here with 17 people, we all agreed that this was perfect and met all needs for our large group. Upon arrival the snacks and wine were a huge hit! Right away we felt welcomed and at home. We were able to put the bags down and walk a few blocks to the beach. We loved the location, so safe and quiet, just minutes away from the beach which allowed us to walk back and forth with ease. The added beach amenities were amazing, from the carts, to the chairs, umbrellas, shark tooth hunting tools, boogie boards, bikes, kayaks- Jen and Eddie thought of every last detail to make going to the beach fun and easy! We really loved that there were so many kitchen items that really helped cooking for 17 people so much easier- it was also so handy having the little kitchen items like lunch baggies and foil, very impressive touches. We also all loved the outdoor shower- it made it so handy to get clean after a day at the beach. We used the BBQ area every night and utilized the screened in porches and outdoor seating. Everyone slept very comfortable in the nice beds. It was an added bonus to have laundry access right there at the house. The kids looked forward to boogie boarding each night at sunset in the warm waters of the Gulf We felt so welcomed right away and Jen and Eddie were very fast to respond to messages. Thank you so much for making a memorable stay for our family!"

- "This property was super clean, neat, and well taken care of. Really enjoyed our time there." - "We recently had a family gathering at Manasota Key, Shorebird was beyond perfect for our group of 17. The accommodations were perfect, everything was clean and the property was well equipped with beach items, boogie boards, shark tooth searching tools, umbrellas, chairs, bikes, kayaks, etc. Jen and Eddie made us feel so welcomed! We loved that there were plenty of kitchen items to prepare meals, that was very handy especially feeding 17 people! We loved using the BBQ area each night and between the patio and enclosed patio we had plenty of room for everyone to find a spot. We all utilized the outdoor showers, and loved the shower that had its own private area, with shampoo and conditioner. It was also an added luxury to have washer and dryer access, so handy, again Jen and Eddie went above and beyond and had detergent available. The location exceeded all expectations, it was such a quick walk to the beach, we went back and forth many times a day. The kids loved boogie boarding each night as the sunset, such a fun experience for them in the warm waters of the Gulf. So many added touches that really helped make us feel at home, and so many thing’s available in the kitchen that were so helpful for our stay. We came from California, so having all those small things like lunch baggies and foil was amazing. Thank you so much Jen and Eddie! Loved your home and all the great things you have done to make it feel so welcoming and comfortable!"

- "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Location is right in heart of old downtown Englewood. Landlord very attentive, pro-active to our needs, and quick to respond to our alerts. (Biggest alert was a tree came crashing down out in parking area during nearby tornado -- no damage and quick response from landlord to clear the fallen tree.) Seemed like landlord was checking in with us about every 2-3 weeks. Would definitely rent from him again," - "This place is amazing. The house and the facilities are perfect. The location is in a rather "tired" neighborhood. However, dont let that fool you. It is as quiet as a tomb and very private. We never saw or heard a sound from any neighbors, ever. Almost no traffic. Close drive to the Public beaches. Walking distance to downtown Englewood which is like "old Florida". No Glitz. I Loved it."

And Jason was very responsive." - "I explored the surrounding areas on my SUP and it is within a few miles of multiple great launches plus you can launch right off the back of the property. It is easy to walk many places and only 1.5 miles from Englewood beach with its daily yoga classes. Perfect spot. I had a few questions at check in and they were answered immediately.
