Close to everything!

We were disappointed with the cleanliness of this unit and lack of amenities. It was so easy to check in, the pool was simply amazing and a quick trip across the street and you were at the beach. So close to grocery store and great restaurants. Manager Ken was responsive and said loud a/c would be looked at but never heard or saw a technician. However, this place needs a deep clean especially the floors! The light grout is now black and the freezer and shower has rust. It would be nice if the owners would have supplied simple amenities such as salt and pepper, hand soap, toilet paper and coffee filters.

Great Oasis!

We had a great stay! Wonderfully landscaped area, felt like our own tropical oasis. Our kids enjoyed the pool everyday. Appreciated the little touches, like all the beach décor of the place and the outdoor patio furniture. Neighbors at other rental spaces super friendly. I would recommend and stay again =)

Great location, quiet, felt like home

Only a walk across a street to Manatee Beach, 2 blocks from Publix and Pharmacy, less than 2 miles walk or bike to multiple restaurants. Amenities were great, multiple beach chairs, umbrellas and wagon were very nice bene's. Pool was heated located just next to our unit, spacious yard for our dog, spacious parking adjacent to our unit. Furnishings were good, comfortable king size bed, pull out couch well used...could be updated...cushions lost their firmness. Ample supply of extra USB ports in bedrooms and living area. Decent supply of house supplies, but toilet paper was only a partial roll...should have at least a full roll. Overall....a very nice place...a duplex but felt like a single unit home, thankful didn't have to go multiple floors, and access to pool, parking and yard space was ideal.... Definitely a come back place!

beach, sun, fun

The property was very nice. Location to the beach was great and having the wagon and chairs and umbrella to use was such a nice extra. The pool was nice, just steps away from our cottage. The only issue we had was not having a blind in our kitchen window but the owner happened to be there and put one in for us right away. We will be back

Great location and amenities

This was a perfect vacation spot for us and our daughter. We were a block from the beach. And the pool was lovely. We even befriended our vacationing neighbors. The house is exactly as described. All your beach and pool supplies are included. There is also a very convenient washer/dryer on the property. The Publix super market is a ten minute walk away. The management company was super responsive to any calls and emails while preparing for our trip.

Our Happy Place

Great location. Exactly as represented. Beach, shopping and Trolley stop all close. The island is very walkable and access to its entirety is fairly easy. Pool is great. Residence is clean and well accommodated. Some things showing some wear but overall in good condition. Property Management is always accessible and willing to help. We never had any major issues.

Great Weekend Getaway

We stayed at the end of November for a little beach getaway. Had a wonderful time with my husband and 7 mo son. Beach was a short 5 minute walk away and easy to access. Lovely clean and cute place with a nice heated pool. Thanks for a great weekend. Will definitely be coming back.

Great!!

We really enjoyed our stay at mi happy place sea horse. This unit provided us what we needed. Comfortable, clean and great location. The bathroom can use little update but was good and clean. It did get but Essen but AC and fans working together did the trick. The pool was great! Would definitely stay again.
