Spring break

Lovely, clean place to stay! The unit was completely redone recently. Kayaks were great to use on Lemon Bay. Beach 2 block walk away but Unit comes with beach cart, beach chairs & umbrella. Quiet neighborhood. Great kitchen and even a grill in the backyard. Check in was super easy and the 2 owners were quick to respond to my questions. Would stay here again

Highly Recommend / Amazing location

Highly Recommend. Amazing location, only 2 minute walk from the beach. Heather and Rod were great hosts, we had 2 small issues that they sorted out within under 30 minutes of asking. We made good use of the kayaks and bikes, bbq, and sun room. We saw dolphins both in the ocean and in-land water.

Rest and Relaxation

Hospitality was wonderful and made the stay for me. The extra snacks, drinks, shampoo, laundry detergent and extras was so nice. Honestly, made my trip. So nice getting there and seeing a cold beer in the fridge. I am a Registered Nurse, so this trip was much needed. Super clean, walking distance to restaurants. Beach was wonderful, we found lots of sharks teeth.

Spring break at Turtle Cay

Our family had a great time at the Beach Shack. It’s a safe area, and we enjoyed being able to walk to the beach and local bars and restaurants. There is shopping nearby too. The kitchen is fully stocked and we used the gas grill twice. Rod and Heather were amazing hosts. They promptly answered all of our questions and even brought over some fans and a cooler and beach bag for us to use. We were welcomed with a large basket of snacks and beer, wine, and water in the fridge too! Thx for an amazing stay on Manasota Key!!

CLEAN, LOTS OF AMENITIES- kayaks, paddleboards, bikes, laundry - great location and hosts!!

This property couldn't be made better, it was FANTASTIC! Our hosts went out of their way to make sure we had everything available to us....even a care package with coffee, snacks, wine, etc., as we arrived Christmas morning. The house is located in a great spot, less than 2 blocks from the beach and a quick half mile walk to Stump Pass State Park, which has a hiking trail then leads to the beach. Great shell and shark tooth hunting, and we kayaked with a dolphin on the canal/bay side! Restaurants, bars, live music, and the bridge are an easy bike ride just down the road. When you look at all the amenities that this place provides, you are saving a lot on rentals. Definitely a place we'd like to visit again!

Do worries stay!

The place was perfect...every amenity was there plus a gracious bottle of wine, sodas and snacks. The kicker was the outdoor shower ( hot and cold water) to me that made the vacation. The unit is new and updated including central A/C.The beach is just a block away. Property has beach access but you must park yourself “at waters edge” and not any closer to the homes on beach property. Waters edge means your chair as close to the water as possible. Beach owners are there and watching...
