Manasota Beach Club

I had the privilege of staying here this week and it was really unlike anywhere I’ve stayed before. When you pull in, you feel like you’ve gone back in time to the classic Old Florida. This is a beloved family owned place, working on keeping the authenticity and natural elements intact. The beach is really the magic that ties it all together, I strolled it for hours and found almost 100 shark teeth just in the sand, saw a stunning sunset, and enjoyed the sound of waves throughout the night, no sound machine needed! Not too far from some great restaurants as well for meals. If you’re looking to truly disconnect, this is a wonderful place to do so.

I would love to write a great review for this place but unfortunately, I can’t. The property is beautiful. I loved the location and how private everything was. They offer a lot amenities (shuffleboard, tennis courts, basketball court, beach toys) but honestly our room was absolutely awful. It was very musty and had a very strong smell. We thought after the air had been going for a few hours everything would be OK. When we got there it was set on 80° and we lowered it to 65. It never got better. When we woke up, we actually considered checking out. We should have said something to the office at that time but we did not. (I did mention the issue when we checked out on Sunday) We spent the day outside and even bought a few air fresheners to help for Saturday evening. We checked out early on S

All around AMAZING place to stay. The office lady was so sweet and very informative. The room was very clean and cozy. Having private access to the beach from your front door was very convenient for us. Definitely full 5 stars dont have anything negative to say.

Exceptional Hospitality and Unforgettable Experience at Manasota Beach Club We recently had the pleasure of staying at the Manasota Beach Club, and I cannot say enough good things about our experience. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this is a special place, steeped in family tradition and generations of dedication. Even though they were dealing with the aftermath of a hurricane, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was nothing short of perfect. A special shout-out goes to Buffy, who was the best host we could have asked for. Her kindness and warmth made us feel right at home. She took the time to check in on us and ensure we had everything we needed, despite the challenges the team was facing. Her dedication to the guests truly embodies the spirit of Manasota

Our stay at Manasota Beach Club was simply perfect! It feels worlds away, like an "Old Florida" time capsule. The location is unparalleled -- we saw so much wildlife, and so few people! Hatching sea turtles, tarpon rolling in the distance, a ray jumping in front of the sunset, endless sharks' teeth on the beach, lots of reef fish just off the beach seen while snorkeling, the resident gopher tortoise ambling by during brunch, and a quick peek of a bobcat! When it was too hot on the beach, the kids really enjoyed the pool and exploring the grounds. Buffy and her staff were warm and welcoming, and the other guests were lovely to connect with. We can't wait to plan our next visit!
