I traveled with my daughter and grandson for a celebration of life for my brother who passed away in July held in Venice, Fl. The condo was a peaceful retreat for us, when we were away from the family.

This spacious and immaculate property was a dream come true. Overlooking Lemon Bay and the sunrise, it was just a short walk to the endless beach and the sunset. The unit was beautifully decorated, and the kitchen was well stocked including spices. When questions arose, the host was right there with the answers. We would definitely recommend this lovely spot to anyone.

We booked this trip for a long weekend and we are so glad we did. We usually like to be oceanfront, but waking up to the bay sure was beautiful and we enjoyed watching the sunrise each day. The beach was easy to get to and was beautiful and private. We felt like we had the beach to ourselves! Absolutely loved having access to beach towels, chairs, coolers, sand toys, umbrellas. The unit we stayed in was clean and well-stocked. Loved the view of the water from nearly every room. The onsite property manager was super sweet and we enjoyed chatting with her while there. We will be coming back!

There were many things to do - kayaks, fishing from the pier. Even board games within the property. Saw manatees, dolphins, and all kinds of birds in the bay. The beach was not a far walk - do have to carry beach accessories to beach as the beach carts needed repair. But the chairs were all in good condition. There is even a small cooler to use to take to the beach. The beach was very nice. Was never crowded. Close distance to many of the restaurants.

Loved staying here. We were welcomed with a tray of goodies like coffee, oatmeal, soaps, shampoos, conditioners, and lotions which by the way smelled so good. Our first stay at this location and we enjoyed it. The view of the bay was great. Watching the sunrise each morning was amazing. Will definitely be back.

We truly enjoyed the privacy and location of the Belle Vista. We met a few other guests while in the pool. I loved the rooms and how spacious the unit was. I had great communication with hosts, an immediate response to a bee nest outside (out of an abundance of caution they removed it - did not affect our stay). Having beach access across the street was great. It was nice to be able to walk to see the sunset since this property is bayside. I enjoyed watching the sunrise from the dock and even from the bay windows while sipping coffee.
I truly can only think of one improvement - and it's a personal choice. The weather was VERY hot when we visited. Even the gulf water wasn't refreshing. It would be nice to swim in the evening after baking in 95-100 degree days. This location has pool hours that close at dark.
If you're looking for private and quiet - this is your place! We would book again! Thank you!

Right on the bay, clean, modern, everything you need, including plenty of tableware, pots and pans. There is stuff in the pantry in case you forgot something to cook. I will definitely stay there again

This property was clean and well appointed. We did a beach weekend with two granddaughters, we all enjoyed this property. The kitchen is beautiful and has great selection of appliances and spices etc. We enjoyed watching the beautiful sunrises over the bay every morning. The short walk to the beach found us enjoying sunsets at the beach. The pool was nice, clean and not crowded. I was pleasantly surprised at how quiet the unit was, even with other units occupied. Beds were comfortable and there were plenty of towels even with girls. The stacked laundry is definitely a plus. We did not use the kayaks because of age restrictions, but that is a really nice bonus for the adults. Would visit here again.

Great Little Place
We really enjoyed this property! You can’t beat the location! The property is accurately depicted in the pictures with a beautiful view of Lemon Bay and is an easy 3-5 minute walk to the beach. I thoroughly enjoyed the bay sunrises and the beach sunsets. The pool area is very well kept and clean, we spent a lot of time there as well. The place was clean, fully stocked, and came with all the beach essentials. Amy is a great host and quickly answered any questions we had and offered up suggestions of things to do in the area. We also loved the quaint quietness of Manasota Key and will definitely consider booking here again.

Bella Vista was the perfect location for our first trip to Manasota Key! So glad to find the pictures truly reflected the suite. Well-stocked kitchen, clean, roomy living space, amazing sunrises over Lemon Bay, easy walk to gulf beach, nearby restaurants, low-key vibe, safe area, plus welcoming goodies, detailed online guidebook and prompt responses from Amy. We loved our waterfront vacation and hope to be back!

This is by far the prettiest condo we have rented. So clean and well equipped. Great communication with host. The grounds are super quiet and relaxing. The sunrise is breathtaking. Lots of dolphins playing in water. Pool is older but spotless and perfect temp. What you see on the listing is exactly what you get

Me and my family had a great time at this specious and beautifully decorated place. The entire apartment was super clean and comfortable with new modern furniture, every little thing was thoughtfully chosen and placed.

Had a lovely sunny vacation. Villa was clean! Pool was chilly when we arrived and a bit small, but we loved the private beach access. Also enjoyed fishing and kayaking on the bay.

Beautiful views
Loved the property and space the condo provided. Super comfortable and beautiful view of Lemon Bay. If I had any issues It would be the property and condo had a lot of signs restricting noise and lots of rules but I never had any issues while there. Also the pool was clean but it needs to be resurfaced and deck updated. It doesn’t match the modernization of the condo.

Beautiful
This place is amazing and it is very well equipped. The beds were very comfortable. Short walk to a beautiful beach. The bay views out of the window in the back of of the house are fabulous. We saw a few Manatee. Excellent place to stay on Manasota Key.

Beautiful property and excellent getaway!
My family and I recently stayed in the beautiful Bella Vista Villa, which exceeded our expectations! The check-in process was so easy and the owner gifted us with a thoughtful welcome basket/tray upon our arrival. The 3 bedroom 2 bath villa was decorated perfectly for our beach getaway and the property had more supplies than we ever could have possibly needed for our weekend trip...from laundry detergent, dish soap, spices, cooking supplies, paper towels, trash bags and more. Unfortunately, we were only able to stay for a weekend, but definitely plan to go back to enjoy this beautiful villa and quaint town for a longer period of time in the future.

Wonderful restful retreat for 4 generational gathering!
We just left paradise. We really loved our stay at the Blue Island. The bedrooms were very comfortable, the kitchen well-equipped, and the seating areas very accommodating. We ate most of our meals there and were able to cook and serve delicious fresh fish from the local fish store. We really appreciated the beach equipment provided, and we took full advantage of the beautiful outdoor seating area and kayaks. We spent many happy hours reading, relaxing, and taking in the view of Lemon Bay.
We appreciated all the great advice about enjoying Manasota Key! We hope to return!
