The town was just getting over a major hurricane with debris everywhere. Our building and grounds were clean and ready to go. Check in was easy and the staff was great. Wonderful job, it couldn't have been easy.

Very clean. With all the amenities that you can think of. Although it was not directly on the beach, it was conveniently located in front of the pathway to the beach. Property owners and staff were great to deal with, super friendly. Will definitely go back.

Mother-Daughter Trip
Absolutely loved our stay!! Property was very nice and cozy! Beach was conveniently across the street and several restaurants a few blocks down the street. Once we made our trip to grocery store we didn’t have to drive anywhere. We’re already planning our next trip to Starfish Stays in Englewood!! The hosts Scot and Paula were quick to respond to any questions I had. Again we absolutely loved it!! Vicky T.

Clean, Efficient and Cute-to-Boot!
Starfish Stays accommodated my husband and myself comfortably. Couch & tv for him to watch his news and read his paper. Chair outside by door for me to sip coffee. Bed was comfortable! Bathroom was just right. Loved using my phone to lock & unlock door. Easy walk across street to access beach. Appreciated having coffee available to get through our first morning upon arrival! I highly encourage others to consider Starfish Stays at Manasota Key.

Fantastic stay!
Beautiful property, clean rooms and quiet. Absolutely loved the decorations. Had so much fun and definitely will come back. They provide all the goodies for fun at the beach. Great location with a few really good restaurants near by. Stephanie was super helpful. If I could make one tiny suggestion for the owners, there are only two wagons for hauling your chairs/coolers/umbrella and such to the beach. Guests tend to hide them in their rooms overnight to make sure they have one the next day. Adding a couple would be nice. Not super important, just convenience. Can't wait to come back!

You don’t want to know.
Proximity to beach was great. The unit was clean and had an updated beachy decor. The property manager was helpful and friendly.. That being said, the property was not worth the price. The bed was uncomfortable. We could not get the TV to work properly. The toilet was so small that it seemed like it was made for a toddler. The walls were paper thin. We respectfully would not go back. Our primary focus was to see an ailing relative and we were just happy to land a place during the busy spring break break season . If our purpose was solely a romantic weekend for two, we would have been really disappointed!!

First time to Manasota Key
Property was perfect! All you need to bring are your clothes and food everything else is supplied by the host. Even beach chairs and beach towels! Property was very clean and beautifully decorated. The walk to the private beach was just across the street through an easement. We also used the grill for steaks and it was full of propane and very clean! This property is one of the best we’ve stayed in. And we had great weather 80’s and sunny each day.

Great place
Starfish stays is lovely. Very clean and well kept up. The property manager was very helpful with explaining the amenities. Beach is just across the street, beautiful and quiet. A couple of days we had the beach completely to ourselves Would recommend staying here
