Best Location on Manasota Key, Cottage Sleeps 3, Kayaks and Wi-Fi

Updated and charming cottage RIGHT ON THE BEACH where you can sunbathe, swim, snorkel, collect shells and sharks' teeth, and fish. Spectacular 180 degree exposure to the Gulf of America. Turtles and Toes is a peaceful and relaxing refuge that will refresh your mind and soul. Please be aware that large pick up trucks or any very large vehicle will have difficulty turning around in the driveway or lane.
Sleep and wake to the soothing sounds of the surf. Walk or jog the 16 miles of the sandy key. Be endlessly entertained by shore birds, pelicans, dolphins, turtles and tortoises, all right at your doorstep. Go shell or sharks' teeth hunting or kayaking, fly a kite, fish, or just chill out and be mesmerized by the emerald water. And you'll be amazed by the gorgeous sunsets followed by a star show that dips all the way into the sea.
You'll find a wall-mounted 52" flat screen TV, Sonos, Wi-Fi, and a sleek, well-supplied kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and a beautiful walnut island. The expansive patio has a table and chairs as well as chairs and umbrellas for the beach.
With health safety in mind, you may check in and check out independently, letting us know when you do each. Being the actual owners, we are readily available if needed!
We have very high cleanliness standards, disinfecting everything with the appropriate products. The bed coverings and towels are washed in high temperature water.
We call this little hideaway "Turtles and Toes." It is over the North Key drawbridge to Manasota Key and down a private lane. Isolated, yet it is near shopping, 15 golf courses, restaurants, and the many amenities and events that Venice and Englewood have to offer.

Fabulous as always!

Our first stay post-hurricanes. The owners did a nice job repairing, updating and refining the property. The paver patio was very spacious and much more usable than the deck. It was nesting season, and we were able to witness three loggerhead turtles come ashore at night -- magical!The new palm trees offered breathtaking views at sunset. The cottage was fresh and new and wonderful!

AMAZING COTTAGE and even better hosts!

This cottage is the absolute perfect getaway! It has everything you need and then some. Spotlessly clean and updated. Location could not be better, plus our last night there, a giat sea turtle climbed the dune to within 20 feet of the cottage door! Picturesque views and steps from the surf just can’t be beat! Also we just can’t heap enough praise on the owners! The communication is the best we have ever experienced from a VRBO host! If VRBO has a best host award Joe & Donna should win it!

Charming Beachfront Cottage

We have stayed at this cottage before, and it’s always been obvious how much love the owners put into the cottage, and how much effort they put into making your stay an enjoyable one. Knowing how much work they had to do to get it rehabbed after last year’s hurricanes makes you appreciate it even more. The cottage is very clean and has everything you need for your stay. You are right on the beach with a spectacular view of the sunset. Communication with the hosts is a breeze and they are quick to respond to any questions you have.

Great oceanfront getaway

This is our third visit with a fourth planned in early 2025. This rental is very clean and has all the amenities you will need for a relaxing get away. The location is great too. The beach is just steps away from the deck and the sunsets are wonderful. There are plenty of good restaurants just a short drive away too. The owners are communicative and responsive.
