A beautiful piece of paradise: walking distance to beach, very secluded, quiet beach was a nice change of pace; dolphins in bay; loved sitting on the dock and watching the sunrise; local restaurants very hot spots to visit and have beverages / lunch and watch the boats come in and out (and some almost getting stuck on the sandbar); the pool was very relaxing in the late afternoon; Allure Boat close by to rent a boat and explore Stump Pass; loved to sit on screened-in lanai and watch boats/people/birds/fish. Very relaxing, wonderful vacation. Condo had everything we could ask for; will try to schedule again for 2020.

We couldn't have been happier with Bay Watch. It was everything the photos showed. It was very clean and homey with everything supplied. You don't need to bring anything but clothes. The screened in porch was the star attraction for us. You only had a very short walk to the secluded beach. Dealing with John and Joe was very easy. Seem like great guys. We can't thank you enough. My wife and I think it was our best vacation we have had and will come again. Thanks, Dave and Paula Fahl

A fantastic condo with a great location and wonderful view. Easy walk to beach restaurants. John was great host, concerned about us being comfortable and happy and responsive to any questions. Check in was a breeze !!

Such a nice relaxing place. Bayview. And out the door across the street is the Gulf. Unit well equipped; owner very responsive. Loved it.

My husband and I loved our one week stay on Mannasota Key! The updated condo was perfect for us. The condo was in a great location within walking distance to restaurants and a short walk to the beach. The condo was well stocked and very comfortable. The view was beautiful. We loved watching all the boats go by from the balcony. We would definitely stay here again.

Well kept property and great view of lemon bay

We enjoyed our stay very much at the Manasota Key condos. We had everything we needed & the kitchen was stocked with more cookware than I’ve ever experienced in other condos. The condo was clean & decorated appropriately with a beach theme. It is a beautiful area with a lot to do. We visited Boca Grande Island, Stump Pass SP, Siesta Key Beach & walked across the street to the beach. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. My husband enjoyed fishing from the dock & saw dolphins close by. We definitely look forward to returning again to such a relaxing & enjoyable place. John is a great person to communicate with. He checked with us the following morning after our arrival just to make sure all was ok & he responded immediately if I contacted him with a question. The week passed too quickly & we hated to leave.

Love the place

Condo was beyond wonderful. It was imaculate. Beautiful decorated. Views were spectacular! Owners couldn't have been any nicer. The property was great! Dock with snook light made evening walks special. Pool was a dream. Restaurants in walking distance. Thank you John and Joe!! This is my hometown. I wanted to come visit family but have a home away from home. Boy' did your condo deliver. This condo had everything from fully stocked kitchen, beach chairs and beach paraphernalia. Extra towels, sheets pillows etc. There should be a higher star rating. I give the condo and owners 10 stars. See you next fall!!

Great location..walk to Stump Pass and restaurants..John was very helpful and thoughtful..wonderful view of bay..quiet and clean..Loved it !!

Perfect vacation! The beach right across the street from the condo isn’t crowded, the water is crystal clear and so warm. Diving down for sand dollars and collecting shells, yoga on the beach and walking to stump pass for dolphin and manatee watching, it’s the dream life! Restaurants and bars within easy walk and drive. The condo itself has a lovely position, and the keyless access is really helpful when going to and from the beach. John is the perfect host. Can’t wait to be back already.

We would highly recommend John's place for your next vacation. The condo was clean, great views, walking distance to local establishments and right across the street from the Gulf. Although we didn't use all the amenities that were provided (we ate out mostly), there appeared to be everything that you needed. We did like that there were laundry facilities available as well.

Englewood is a very nice place. The beach is calm and not crowded with people. John was a very good host. He answered fast on every question we had. The apartment was clean and had a nice view from the balcony. The pool was great for the chiffren. Our chiffren slept in the sofa in the Livingroom and it worked great. We would love to spend another holiday in englewood and this apartment was very good.

Great view of the bay from our balcony and from within the unit. Condo is well maintained as is the entire El Galeon property. Location is excellent.

Very impressed with the condo we rented for the week. Very clean, nice furnishings, layout and a wonderful view from the private screened in balcony. Walk to the corner store for the paper and a short walk across the street for the beach. Nice restaurants were not that far away. Our favorites were Farlows on S.McCall and the Wine Bar/Bistro around the corner and on the bay.

Awesome view from the screened lanai of Lemin Bay. Good fishing off of the provided dock. Adequate accommodations for 2 people. Short walk to the beach across the street. Stayed 28 days and saw 25 sunsets. Easy walk to restaurants; laid back area. Small bathroom with updated shower, no sink area. Kitchen well stocked with cookware and utensils. Bedroom has large closet for storage with plenty of dresser space. Small but comfortable lanai. Kitchen in need of update, but owner is planning that renovation for this year. Owner is easy to work with and cooperative. We have signed up to return to this unit next year. Excited to see the improvements to an already conveniently located, well stocked and comfortable unit.

I recently returned from a wonderful stay in the Bay Watch condo.It is spotless and nicely furnished. It is very convenient to the beach and restaurants. John, the owner, is pleasure to deal with; everything went perfectly. In case a guest has a problem or question , John is very willing to assist in any way. The unit has everything one could want or need for the kitchen, beach,pool, etc. I enjoyed the Bay Watch so much I have already booked it for next year !

We had a wonderful stay! My family of 3 (wife, 11mos old and myself) had a fun and relaxing week at baywatch. John was super quick in responding and was very easy to work with during booking. The condo along with the entire complex were spotless. The neighbors were super friendly and happy to give us local info. Restaurants and bars are just a short walk away. The bay in the back and the gulf right across the street. You really can’t beat it. We’ll definitely be returning to Manasota Key and baywatch!

This condo is a great vacation spot. Perfect location for beach lovers, boaters, kayakers and anglers. Clean, well accommodated and cozy.

Very clean with a beautiful view and easy walk to the beach. Lots of extra towels and a comfortable king size bed. I always sleep really well here. Will be back again!

The Bay Watch condo has everything you need for a relaxing & comfortable stay. The view of Lemon bay from the patio was stunning and we ate all of our meals there. The owner (john) was a pleasure to work with making all arrangements stress free & easy.

We loved our stay at Bay Watch! Very nice condo, beautifully furnished, very clean and well equipped with everything needed for a relaxing vacation. Got to watch dolphins from the balcony several times! Several nice restaurants within easy walking distance. Owners were very nice and helpful - thanks, John, for making this a thoroughly enjoyable stay.

We love El Galeon! We've already have reserved two weeks next year at BayLife. I had a operation on my knees and wanted the first level. We're home and already miss it!

Great restaurants and entertainment near by.

I highly recommend this location if you're staying in the area. It was exactly as advertised, if not better. The condo looked, felt and smelled extremely clean, the bed was big and comfortable (on the firm side), the lanai was great for relaxing on and the walk to Englewood beach is literally just across the street. All of the restaurants down the street are excellent and only a 5 minute walk away. We particularly like Flounders. This place was great, what more can you ask for?

My stay at Bay Watch was everything I needed it to be. I was at the condo for work and was pleased to come "home" each evening to a comfortable, clean and well appointed place each evening. The updated condo is cozy and the view off the balcony was great for morning coffee or quiet dinner. Having good restaurants within walking distance was a plus, as was having the beach access across the street. The pool was clean and well cared for. I would love to return to this location sometime when I can spend more time on the beautiful beaches. Thank you John for making my trip easy and enjoyable, working with you was a breeze.
