The Shell House 🐚 Cerca de la playa 🏝 Proyectado en la piscina

We had such a great time here. We traveled with our daughter and son in law and 3 grandchildren and my mother. The 2 living rooms were ideal for down time. The kids all enjoyed the pool and we enjoyed the sitting area around the pool. The home was VERY clean and adequately supplied. The owners are easy to communicate with before hand and even check in with you after you are there to see if you need anything. We never needed anything while we were there. We will definitely be back.

We loved the house very clean

The home was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed for our stay, including plenty of beds, a washer and dryer, and basic kitchen appliances. We especially appreciated the beach chairs and umbrellas in the garage, which were a great convenience.At the same time, the home could benefit from some updates, as a few furnishings showed wear and tear, such as rickety table and chairs, paint chipping in the bathtub, stained rugs, and some scuff marks on the walls. The pool area itself was very nice and inviting, though it is close to a main road, so there was some noticeable traffic noise.

Good location--close to 3 gorgeous beaches (Cortez, Coquina, Manatee) with bike path we used to avoid Cortez Road traffic to the island. We loved exploring Longboat Key beaches too.Loved the pool with lanai and outdoor couches/big screen tv movie night. Traffic was a bit loud at times but we just turned up the outside music/movie volume!Plenty of functional living space. Beds were fine. Kitchen had a ton of cooking pots and pans--missed hot pads.Nice volume of towels for beach and home.Tons of beach toys, umbrella and chairs in the garage--and loved garage opener and parking out of the sun/elements overnight.Olga was a fantastic host communicator.Requires a car but the pool and access to numerous beaches with free parking was wonderful!

Pool was warmer than anticipated which the kids loved! Could not use the key pad to get into the front door but owners gave us the code for garage which worked fine. Close to stores/beaches. Comfy beds! Perfect spot.
