You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
The Oceanview Oasis
The next-door neighbor to The Barefoot Bungalow is the Oceanview Oasis. It has the same beautiful white sand beach with warm, gulf coast waters waiting for you.
Because of the unique access to both the beach on one side and placid bay water on the other, you get to enjoy the best of both worlds. You can have sand in your toes by just opening the front door! Sunsets on Manasota Key are truly an event to plan around as you collect our famous seashells and sharks' teeth.
Walk to great beachfront restaurants with live music most every night or take the free shuttle. While at home, revel in tranquility with nothing but the sound of waves while you sit in your rocking chair.
Our customers tell us they can't get enough of this villa's great beach location. During your stay, you'll be within walking distance of Englewood Beach. You'll find features like an outdoor pool and laundry facilities. A kitchen and a patio are available in the villa.

We have been coming to Manasota Key for years and wasn’t sure what to expect after the hurricane. However, Island Breeze was perfect. Great location on the beach with an unobstructed view of the gorgeous Gulf. The condo had everything we needed and was very clean. There are sadly still a lot of damaged properties along the beach but the progress has been amazing. I would definitely rebook with Island Breeze if available.

### Review for Pat and Jack on VRBO Our stay at Pat and Jack's place was nothing short of fantastic! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by how well-equipped the unit was. It had everything we needed—chairs, umbrellas, a fully stocked kitchen, utensils, sunscreen, bug spray, and even towels. The beach is just steps away, making it super convenient for daily visits. We were lucky enough to see dolphins and manatees right from the shore, plus we had a great time hunting for shark teeth and shells! There are also plenty of great restaurants nearby, so dining out was a breeze. What really set this stay apart was Pat and Jack themselves. They are truly wonderful people who go above and beyond to ensure their guests feel welcome. Any questions we had were answered in a timely manner, and their kindness made our experience even better. I can't say enough good things about this place! We can't wait to come back for another amazing vacation. A solid 10 out of 10 stay! Thank you again for making our summer unforgettable!

Perfect location
We were in the area specifically to find sharks teeth and this was a great location for it. The beach was literally right out the front door and we did find several teeth at the beach here! Our neighbor found several just walking around the parking lot! The place was clean and had chairs/umbrella/cooler provided so whether you stayed on this beach or decided to drive to any other nearby beaches you would have everything you needed for a great day! We drove up to Manasota beach as well to look for teeth and found even more teeth there! This was a great spot to base yourself while you explore all the nearby beaches known for sharks teeth! The space was clean and cute! We really enjoyed sitting in the rocking chairs on the porch each evening to watch the sunset! The host was super friendly and very quick to respond at any point from the booking process all the way through or stay! We definitely hope to be able to book here again in future!

Wonderful getaway
Excellent place for two on the Gulf of America. Nice quaint condo on the beach with wonderful opportunities for gorgeous sunsets, weather pending of course. Plenty of shells and sharks teeth to be found on the beach even in the off months. Look forward to visiting this rental again

Great stay - access and convenience being directly on the beach and short walk to the bay was really nice. Hosts Pat & Jack provided everything we needed - plenty of space and comfortable and clean. Super view out the living room window. Our 2nd time and we’ll be back.

Beachfront in Englewood
Highly recommend this location for beach lovers. You’re 2 steps from the sand. Also walking distance to several great restaurants with outdoor dining. The only complaint was lack of good beach chairs as we can’t travel with those. Should be automatic to include them. I’d also recommend an outdoor shower or hose to eliminate a lot of the sand.

A real gem!
This is a great little place right in the middle of a beautiful key. The area is quiet, the beach is amazing, and there was a great mix of snowbirds, families, and couples wandering about every day. Everyone was friendly and happy.Manasota was devastated by the hurricanes and the repairs are ongoing. It's clearly been a struggle for the residents and property owners. The restaurants and shops were open and happy to have customers!The unit was renovated and the owners are working hard to make sure the property shows very well. It was a very comfortable place tucked away. The sunsets are incredible and you can enjoy them right on the covered porch. This is truly a "right on the beach" place!

Pat was honest and handled our situation well!
So it was immediately after Hurricane Helene. Pat kept us updated as we were on the road to the property. The day before we were to arrive Pat called and said option A was out and option B would have too much water. So she refunded all our money including the VRBO fee. Excellent and honest host.

Great location
Great location. Was clean and comfortable. The only recommendation for improvement would be to get some new pillows. They were very worn and flat. Also, blackout curtains in the bedroom would be wonderful as the red safety-porch lighting wasn’t blocked by the blinds. Definitely a great value though.

Truly enjoyed my first visit to Manasota Key. The rental was more accommodating than expected. It was a home away from home.
