Your private getaway minutes from the beach! The entire home to yourself!
About this house rental
**As of May, 2022 we have outfitted our home with brand new Central Air Conditioning! We are so excited for this extra comfort for all of our Winstan Guests!** This wonderful home has served my family and I since the 1980s--and now we want to share it with you! The rustic exterior, stucco walls, and square dimensions of this Spanish-influenced home hides a fully-renovated and inviting interior. The bright colors of Florida blend perfectly with the home's beautiful wooden floors and ceilings. Plenty of space as well as a cozy back patio for soaking up the sun during the day or unwinding in the evening! You'll never have to worry about being to far from anything--your vacation home is only five minutes to the beach, and even closer to restaurants and shopping. Bring your kayaks, paddleboards, or boat--public canal and water access is at the end of your street! You'll have backdoor access to great fishing and relaxing times in Lemon Bay. Scour the beach for shark's teeth, book a sunset cruise, go parasailing, rent a jetski, or maybe even charter a deep water fishing expedition. We can't wait to hear from you!

Property was just as described/pictured and more. There was even a bonus room. Had everything we needed from k cups and a four slice toaster to plenty of bedding and linens. They had aloe, toiletries, even some beach stuff. Jost was wonderful, responded quickly and even check in with us after our first day to see if we needed anything. Excellent, would stay again in a heartbeat. Check in was a breeze, as was check out. Only asked us to strip the beds and leave in a pile for them to wash.

The house is in a great location and close to a lot of things but there is a very musty odor. Can’t get the smell out of our luggage or some of our clothes. There are fragrance plugs around the house to try to mask the smell. Other things happened but won’t write about it.

My fault, I did not realize that there is no central air and I did not read the last review. It said it had air conditioning but there is no central air, it consists of five window units. There was a very strong musty smell and alot of black pieces of mold coming out of the air conditioner in the living room. The owner got back to me quickly and the woman that showed up said that she would clean it and take care of everything. She did clean it and it smelt a little better but after a day it was back to blowing out black chunks of mold. Everything in my suitcase had to be washed when we got home because all of our belongings smelt like an old musty house. I have an allergy to mold. We were also told that the air conditioning unit shouldn't be turned down below 74. This also made our bedroom fairly warm, thank goodness the bed was really comfortable. Our average temperature was 82 with relatively low humidity, so I can't imagine being there in the middle of the summer. Someone has replaced the decking and used the wrong screws so they are sticking up out of the deck. All in all the place is cute and quirky. It's just a shame that we had issues with the air conditioning.

We wanted a staycation close to kayak launches and this little gem was perfect for us. They even had a shark tooth sifter we used to collect teeth on Casperson Beach in Venice.
Do keep in mind this rental does not have central air. They have individual units in each area. Our stay was at Thanksgiving so it was cooler, not an issue for us.

Publix is so close we walked to the store most times. Englewood beach and restaurants are a 5 min drive. Good air conditioning. Comfy beds and couches.

Only suggestion would be a few more Serving dishes and a frig with water and ice Dispenser that was connected to water line. And improved outdoor seating on deck. Overall everything was enjoyable.

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful home. It is in a perfect, central location, near to shops but away from any noise of the town. I would definitely stay there again.

We enjoyed our stay in Nicole's house. The house is clean and well maintained. The few issues that did arise were taken care of immediately. We are walkers, and most everything we needed could be obtained without getting into a car. And while Nicole's patio was certainly comfortable for a wine or beer at the end of the day, if you want the vibe of a casual outdoor pub on the water to watch the boats and the sunset, it's hard to beat Skip's, just down the street. We'll be back!

What a wonderful property! The house is updated and you literally can just walk in and enjoy. The house was so clean and so well equipped with kitchen items, laundry detergent, shampoo & conditioner.
You can sit on the deck and watch the birds and boats on the canal. Beaches and shopping just around the corner. Nicole was wonderful to work with! We will be staying again.

A group of friends traveled down to stay in Florida for 5 days this past March and had an amazing time. We absolutely loved our stay at Nicole's place in Englewood. Everyone enjoyed themselves. The property was extremely clean, well equipped (from the kitchen & bathrooms to beach and grill needs), spacious, comfortable, and convenient to everything from great beaches to wonderful restaurants and shops. The outdoor space and deck was beautiful and relaxing and we enjoyed being able to cook on the outdoor grill. Everything one could possibly need is provided. I would highly recommend staying here when traveling to this part of Florida.
4.0
This house is situated in a very convenient location. Close to shopping and the beautiful Englewood beaches. Peaceful neighborhood.
