About this property

FLASH SALE - just steps to beach. 2BR/1BA.Dogs welcome! Perfect ratings.


Complete renovation of the cutest beach cottage you'll find anywhere in Southwest FL! Pretty and pink on the outside, coastal, bright and fresh on the inside.
Professionally designed and decorated home located just steps from the sand.

Location, location, location! A stone's throw to the beach or 10 mins walk to restaurants, bars and shopping.

Bright and airy, brand new appliances and furniture. Following extensive repairs from hurricanes Helene AND Milton, our beach cottage now offers BRAND NEW EVERYTHING.

Bathed in warm, tropical earth tones, this home features beautiful new floors throughout the living areas, restored original terra cotta tile and high-end custom tile in the bathroom. Brand new stainless steel appliances. Beautiful quartz countertops. Landscaped and breezy outdoor sitting area extend the liveability of this adorable cottage.

This is widely regarded as the best street on the island, with nightly sunset gatherings with our full-time resident neighbors and other guests. You'll never want to leave! All are welcomed to join "Wednesdays on Wilhelm!" A beloved and well-known tradition on the island, all are welcome to BYOB and a favorite dish to share at this fun beach party - every Wednesday during the winter months. Grab you flip flops and beach chair and meet other guests and residents at sunset. Good vibes all around!

Kick back, chill out and grill. All you need is food, drinks and your bathing suit. We’re not kidding, we have it all. Enjoy the most beautiful and undiscovered beach in Florida. We offer high speed internet, SmartTV (cable TV also included), Keurig and drip coffee maker, fully stocked cabinets and drawers, chairs and umbrellas so make yourself at home. We even have puzzles for rainy days!

The wildlife is amazing. Artists and sun worshippers aren’t the only species drawn to our little island. Our breathtaking beach is also popular with wildlife and ecotourists. It isn’t unusual to be joined by a heron on your walk, see a pelican fishing as you throw out your line, or perhaps you’ll come across a dolphin at play while kayaking the blue waters. Take a walk on the wild side and watch the sea turtle nests come alive with hatchlings May 1 to October 31.

Another fun amenity for the island is the "Stumpy Bus", a volunteer-run free shuttle in the form of a decorated 8-seat golf cart. Grab a cocktail and hop on board to most of the bars/restaurants on the island. PS - They work for tips so bring some cash to share the love!

Finding fossilized sharks teeth is a favorite hobby of beach walkers and you will find many among the mounds of shells. Snorkel in the crystal clear water for sand dollars and everything tropical.

For all you fishing enthusiasts, the area is the second largest marine estuary in the state. You will find hundreds of species in our waters. Nearby Boca Grand is the official “Tarpon Capital of the World”. The area has dozens of boat ramps so bring your boat. We have plenty of room to park. (Local boat rentals are also available through local businesses.)

In addition to being renowned for its fishing, Boca Grande is widley regarded as the most exclusive coastal enclave in Florida and you'll marvel at the historic and famous Gasparilla Inn. Great shopping and restaurants. Keep your eyes open for celebrities, who regularly vacation here. Take a 20 minute drive to a different world! Rent a golf cart while you're there and drive down Banyon Street, one of the most famous streets in Florida.

For your safety and security, an outdoor video camera is installed with visibility to exterior entrance only.

We had an absolutely unforgettable time! This is in my top 10 places to stay. So close to the beach and even on Labor Day it was not very packed. The beach chairs and umbrellas were perfect and the hangout area in the front is covered from the hot Florida sun. There was a lot of thougt and care put into every amenity and how the place is set up. We were able to bring our pup too and he loved it. We will be back again someday for sure. Absolutely loved it!

We had the most amazing time in this beautiful Pink Paradise. The house was immaculate and beautiful. Our host was so helpful beforehand; and checkin/checkout was a breeze. We loved the front porch - especially in the morning with our coffee. We were steps from the beach; and the house even had beach towels, chairs, and umbrellas. The laundry was even clean and convenient. The beach was beautiful and relaxing. We absolutely will be back - especially after I caught 2 dnooks, 2 trout, and a sheepshead from the shore this morning. Little Pinky is paradise found...

About the host

Hosted by Lynda Spofford

Host profile image
This home is owned by two brothers and our families. We love sand, saltwater, swimming and especially fishing. We chose Manasota Key because it is quiet, uncommercialized and still represents the beautiful and unspoiled old Florida.

We selected Manasota Key due to its overall ease of access (vs other barrier islands), close proximity to regional/international airport, abundant restaurants and great grocery stores.

We love our return guests who return year after year and who love our quiet little island as much as we do.

WE ARE NOT REALTORS AND WE DO NOT LEVERAGE PROFESSIONAL MANAGEMENT COMPANIES. We offer more flexibility and will do whatever we can to sure your stay exceeds your expectations.

Why they chose this property

Our street is widely regarded as the best streets on the island. Sunset is a time of gathering every night. Guests may decide to celebrate sunsets from the beach or from the convenience of richly landscaped patio.

This island in general but our street, specifically is very friendly. The street is quiet and safe. Smiles all around!

What makes this property unique

We are not realtors or professional real estate managers. This is our personal home and we're delighted to share it! We've renovated and furnished this home exactly how we love for it to be when we use it ourselves and we leave behind everything for your use and enjoyment so make yourselves at home!
