About this property

Waterfront Apt on Manasota Key, FL with beach access

This freshly renovated two bedroom, 2 bath unit is located at the north end of Manasota Key on Lemon Bay and offers spectacular views of the unspoiled and pristine nature of the bay, including dolphins, manatee, sea otters, etc., and lots of birds. All rooms, except guest bedroom, open up to these views and to a lovely paved patio area on Lemon Bay complete with a pergola covering a bar counter with chairs and propane gas grill, a new dock, fire pit, picnic table with umbrella, and a bocce ball court. Relax in the living room or on your front porch with your coffee and enjoy amazing sunrises, or sip a glass of wine under the jasmine covered pergola while grilling on the gas grill. Enjoy a game of bocce ball overlooking the bay, or drop a fishing line off the end of the dock for a chance to catch Red Drum, Snook, Sheepshead, and Snappers. Bringing your boat? This unit includes a new dock with deep water access and a boat slip for your boat; however, water is only 18 inches to 2 feet deep in slip at low tide. If you can't park your boat in our slip due to low tide, there is a boat ramp just a little over one mile north, and there is room on our property to park your trailer. Traveling in your RV and want to stretch your legs a bit, there is parking available on our property with a trickle charge. Our pool is heated and includes a nice sun shelf with two chaise lounges for relaxing and soaking up the sun. The beautiful Gulf of Mexico is located just across the street with deeded beach access. Open up your beach cabana and chairs and soak up the warm Florida sun while searching for shells and sharks’ teeth or do some beach fishing with no crowds, and then return home to cool off in the pool. Kayaks are also available for your use and you can take off right from your own front yard. Sol Y Mar is secluded to avoid traffic noise yet is also close to shopping and restaurants. Englewood Beach village is just 6 miles down the canopy covered road with great restaurants and souvenir shops. Englewood Beach (6 miles) and Manasota Key Beach which has a boat ramp (1 mile) both offer beach yoga, and Stump Pass Beach State Park is just 7 miles away. Major shopping is just a few miles off the Key with the north bridge only 1 mile away. All you need to do is pack your bags and head to your vacation in paradise.

Ultimate relaxation
Home is beautiful and even better than the pictures! Excellent fishing from the dock steps from the back door. Beach access a very short walk directly across the street. Beach area is all private and not crowded. Perfect place for relaxing

Great Location! Awesome Vacation
We absolutely loved our weekend away at Bob and Lisa's waterfront apartment in Manasota Key. They are fantastic hosts and went above and beyond to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. The apartment was so comfortable and has everything you could possibly need. Between the beach, the ICW and the pool, we enjoyed a lot of sun, sand and water. I have stayed at a lot of VRBO properties but this one was a cut above!

Beautiful beach home
Bob & Lisa were very friendly and amazing! Beautiful beach home with gorgeous views. We loved waking up watching the sunrise right from inside the home, the easy beach access for shark tooth hunting, fishing from the dock, to taking a dip in the pool and walking to the beach to watch the sunset. All the items we needed were there for us and if not Lisa and Bob had it for us. I highly recommend this beach home. All around everything was amazing!

About the host

Hosted by Lisa Benson

Host profile image
My husband, Bob, and I are retired and just settled in on Manasota Key, FL after traveling the U.S. for three years with our pets. We love to travel and thought we would travel for another year when we found this tired, old, lonely house that was just crying out to be restored. So, we have put our trip on old and are enjoying the salt life on the Key.
