We are in LOVE!!!

We absolutely loved our two weeks stay at Cottages By The Sea in Englewood. Our hosts, Fran and Fred went above and beyond to make sure that we had everything that we would need. We were so surprised when we opened the frig to fine a nice bottle of Champagne that they left for us to enjoy on our 50th Wedding Anniversary! We walked miles and miles every day and found all kinds of shells and tons of shark's teeth, over 600 shark's teeth in total!!! We went to the Dearborn Street market on both Thursdays while we were there which was AWESOME. So much to do in this cool community. We loved that Englewood is such a dog friendly community too. We met so many people from all over the USA and a family who were visiting from France too!! We will definitely be back for another stay here!!!

This property is fantastic!! The pictures do not do it justice. Ocean and beach are 50 feet from the patio. Best ocean front I have stayed in. Apartment was clean had everything we could have needed. We just did a girls weekend but would defiantly come back for longer!! Francine was very nice and answered all questions. Highly recommend!!!

This is the 3rd time we’ve stayed in the unit since 2009 - with a different owner each time. It gets better every time! Furniture and master bed are comfy and kitchen is very well stocked. The beach is perfection - beautiful old Florida. We ate at Lock and Key and drove to Venice to Captain Eddie’s. Both are wonderful. Francine is a gracious host and met us at check in to give us a tour. We’ll definitely be back!
