We are within walking distance, or an easy bike ride to lovely waterfront parks on Lemon Bay. Just a short drive away are Englewood's beautiful beaches,rivaled by none! Just a ten minute drive, across the bridge to Mannasota Key, you'll have access to Stump Pass Beach, Englewood Beach, Middle Beach and the North-end Mannasota Key Beach! And about a half hour away is Boca Grande's wonderful beaches, also a must do! Golfers have numerous golf courses to choose from in the area and fisherman enjoy free public boat ramps and marinas close by. As you can see, I can't say enough about beautiful Englewood! Come see for yourself!

Our room did not have a view but is literally a thirty-second walk to a beautiful beach that was…read morenot overly crowded like you'd find at huge resorts. Small 2 bedroom with kitchenette was stocked with everything we needed, the owner told us, just bring your toothbrush, and he wasn't wrong. Contactless check-in. Propane grills, laundry, small pool area (across the street), and boat dock (also across street) available for guests. Walking distance from about five restaurants. If they were looking to upgrade I'd suggest a hot tub, bikes and kayaks to borrow, and faster internet (I clocked ours at about 22 mbps and is shared by three units.) Overall, great value. Photos posted on Air B&B are accurate depictions.

They start at 7:30am and quit at 6:00pm. Hammers Pounding, playing LOUD music, Workers yelling, saws running, nail guns all day long. With all the buildings this resort has lost to hurricane Milton (massive damage to this Resort) they could easily build these planters somewhere else and not next to their remaining guests rooms. Very inconsiderate! Rude! They offer No housekeeping service, and you must empty all garbage cans and remove from your unit or they will charge you a fee! They text you this message the night before you checkout. They treat you like it's a VRBO, when it is a resort!! Manasota Key Resort. No fiber optics on the island since hurricane Milton, even local TV and internet is sketchy. They are barely open here. I recommend staying at the Pink Shell Resort or Margaritaville at Fort Myers Beach, about the same price with housekeeping service, dining on site, internet and you are treated as a valued guest.

WannaB Inn is located at the southern tip of Manasota Key Beach just before you enter into Stump…read morePass Beach State Park. The area that stretches from WannaB Inn to Stump Pass is known for its shells, sharks teeth and breathtaking sunsets. The beach front to this hotel is private. Nice! This vacation was a Christmas present for my daughter & myself -- we literally booked this trip in December of 2020 and by April of 2021 the hotel was 95% sold out. June 2021 was a terrible time to travel. The people traveling for vacation (demand) was more than what the airlines/ car rental companies (supply) could keep up with, and we got caught in that drama. We planned to arrive in Ft. Myers by mid day but numerous cancelations plus problems with Enterprise put us at WannaB at 2am. We stayed connected with Meggie about our trip. The communication was great. She made arrangements to put a lock box on our door, and text us the code so we could have keys to our room after hours. We really appreciated the customer service!!! Our ten day trip was pretty cool. We got five star service at this two star hotel. There were a few issues along the way, but when we expressed our concerns, WannaB Inn fixed them to our satisfaction. We stayed in the Sea Star, by the pool, king sized bed, spacious living space and a kitchenette. I have a few tips to share that made our experience spectacular: TIP: Native Charter Company, family owned, native to the area, sunset cruise, leaves from Lemon Bay, $25.pp for one hour. Best deal on the island and I promise you it's a wonderful experience! Read my Yelp review for more details. TIP: Stumpys Free Shuttle Service. Super sized golf carts will pick you up a designated spots -- one is at WannaB Inn. Parking is a beast on the island. Read my Yelp review. TIP: Rob's Pizzeria. Don't let a 10 minute drive keep you from getting great pizza. Family owned, aimed to please, made from scratch menu, much cheaper than pizza on Manasota Key. They are not open for lunch. Read my Yelp review. TIP: Nokomis Drum Circle, local tribe, music for all ages. Wonderful experience, free event and free parking. Read my Yelp review for details. TIP: Off The Wagon Brewery & Kitchen in Venice, FL -- worth the 15 minute drive!!! Best of Venice 2020 Winner of "Best Craft Beer" and "Live Entertainment". The food is fresh (never brought in frozen). We ordered hamburgers, fresh catch of the day, Nashville chicken bowl and everything was delicious every time. I hope my information helps you make a decision about your trip here.

The application went smooth and they got the house which was great. On move in day they were initially given the incorrect code to gain access into the house. When first walking in the house was disappointing to say the least. It had not been cleaned after they initially looked at it. Dead bugs everywhere and I mean everywhere. Dust and dirt in every corner. Well movers were minutes away so we swept up best we could. As starting to unpack and try things. The ice maker in the fridge didn't work, the garbage disposal didn't work and the garage door barely worked. I hooked up the washing machine and immediately the showers and toilets started backing up. Not what 2 elderly people need to deal with after paying the amount of money they did to get in the house. At this point the septic has been flushed and the garage door fixed but not the disposal or ice maker so they are unable to use the dishwasher. I would say buyer beware at the least! Also Beth who they/we dealt with was very rude and not understanding at all that these are two elderly people. Nobody I would want working for me!!!
