We enjoyed our stay and hope to be back again soon! Everything was so welcoming down to the nice cold bottle of wine in the fridge! We appreciated all the nice touches and it was a great location. Nice to see Manasota Key recovering from the storms and Wilhelm street is very cute and most homes on this street were in great shape.

We had a great time staying at mermaid house for almost two weeks. (One adult and two teenagers.) it was our 4th trip to Manasota key and unfortunately our previous rental had been demolished due to the hurricanes last year so we were super excited to find Duane and Darlene’s place. The updated bathrooms, Nice furnishings, great location close to the beach, washer and dryer super handy to do laundry were exactly what we needed. We had an issue with a leaky dishwasher and Lisa their local property manager responded quickly and had someone out the next morning to do repairs. There is a lot of construction and landscaping going on in the area as part of hurricane recovery. It did not interfere or bother us at all just relaxing and spending time on the beach. Great place!

Thank you for allowing my family to make some beautiful memories this year. We have visited Englewood for many years and always stayed in the same place. This year we had to change due to the hurricane. We were super impressed with this property and it has become my families new favorite spot. The location is private and within feet of the beach. As a mother with littles I couldn’t ask for a more convenient location. Super quiet street and the neighbors were friendly. The surroundings felt super safe to walk the beach at night. The views are nothing less than stunning. We look forward to seeing you all next year god willing. ❤️ Glass Family

This was our second time staying at Duane and Darlene’s place and it was just as good as the first. The space is clean, well decorated, and cozy. The location is a 2 minute walk to the beach and a 10 minute walk to the local bars, restaurants, and shops. We have stayed on Manasota Key several times and this has been our favorite place so far in terms of location, space, and host. We will definitely be looking for availability next time we have a beach getaway here!

We loved our stay at Mermaid House. It is located on the prettiest street in Manasota Key. It is perfect, we will never stay anywhere else. We love the big front porch to sit on and feel the ocean breeze. The beach was absolutely breathtaking! The water is super clear! We just left yesterday and I already miss it. I am going to make my reservation for 2026 asap. Thanks for letting us enjoy your piece of paradise.
