About this house rental
Your dream beach getaway awaits at Sunset Beach Retreat on beautiful Manasota Key, one of Florida’s best-kept coastal secrets — just 500 steps from the beach. Known for its uncrowded white-sand beaches, incredible shelling, and breathtaking sunsets, Manasota Key offers a peaceful, authentic island escape away from the crowds of busier destinations.
Whether you’re planning a relaxing family vacation, a fun girls’ weekend, or a memorable group getaway, this private coastal retreat offers the perfect blend of comfort, adventure, and resort-style amenities.
Spend your days exploring Manasota Key Beach and nearby Stump Pass Beach State Park, a protected nature preserve famous for its pristine shoreline, wildlife sightings, shark tooth hunting, and some of the most beautiful sunsets on the Gulf Coast. Dolphins, manatees, and coastal birds are often spotted just offshore.
Back at the home, unwind in your private resort-style backyard designed for relaxation and wellness. Take a dip in the pool, relax in the 5-person infrared sauna, or reset with a cold plunge after a day in the sun.
For guests who love to stay active or explore the island, Sunset Beach Retreat delivers. Enjoy complimentary kayaks, paddleboards, and bicycles, challenge friends on the putting green, or take advantage of the optional 6-person golf cart rental to cruise the island, visit the beach, or explore local restaurants and live music spots with ease.
Inside, you’ll find a spacious, open layout designed for gathering and comfort, with room for everyone to relax after a day at the beach. With sleeping accommodations for groups, fast Wi-Fi, and all the comforts of home, this retreat is ideal for everything from laid-back beach days to active island adventures.
Enjoy nearby beachfront dining, local seafood favorites, and live music, or venture a short drive to Englewood, Venice, Boca Grande, and Sarasota for shopping, fishing charters, and memorable day trips.
Whether you’re escaping the cold, celebrating a special occasion, or simply craving time by the sea, Sunset Beach Retreat offers the ultimate Manasota Key experience — steps from the beach, rich in amenities, and designed for unforgettable stays.

Everything about this vacation rental was 5-Stars! The location is awesome, the interior of the home was beautifully designed and furnished (it was even beautifully decorated for the holiday season!), the kitchen was very well equipped and the appliances were fantastic for those who like to cook, the outdoor living space (pool, spa, cold plunge, outdoor grill and dining area) was terrific, and probably most important the host was so kind and easy to communicate with throughout the week. Do not hesitate to book this vacation rental!

Had a great week on Manasota key. This beach house is just what the name implies .... a "Beach Retreat" to calm your soul. The house was amazing and felt comfortable.like being home. Spacious rooms and living/kitchen area for games and hanging togeather. Our grandkids never wanted to leave the pool, sauna, cold plundge area. Great outdoor sitting area to enjoy the beautiful weather. Loved the location, as it is great for a walk to town, beach time or getting to the bay for a kayak ride. Highly recommend this location for a beach week on the island.

Everything was perfect! You are so lucky to get to stay here, it was a blast! Beautiful home and great service. We road the bikes down to Englewood to compete in the Inflatable Invitational, and to Stump Pass State Park. We took the kayak to the beach. It was perfect to celebrate my son’s graduation from college as well as all the birthdays we had. We would love to stay here again, we used everything, the sauna, pool, playground, golf, kayaks. I didn’t have time to try out the paddle boards, maybe next time. They have everything you need, coolers, shampoo and soap, it’s all been thought of. The only thing I couldn’t find was a hand mixer but it wasn’t a problem my daughter brought hers. Thank you for the memories Katie!

Beautiful, FULLY STOCKED house and property. This was a great house for two families of four! The kids loved the bunk room and adults apprecaited the comfy king bedrooms on the other side of the house. The kitchen had everything we needed and all the odds and ends for a beach day were also available (towels, buggies, beach chairs, a cooler, floats, etc.) The beach was in walking distance, but we had probably more fun in the backyard enjoying the pool, ninja-style playground, fire place, and cold plunge! Definitely reccomend for families with younger kids :)
