We had a lovely family stay here. The property has a nice view of water where we saw manatees swimming. Heated pool. Very friendly and helpful owners. The room and pool area was spotlessly clean. Numbered parking spaces right outside the rooms. The property is on a quiet street but only a few mins walk to bars, restaurants, gift shops and the beach. Would definitely stay here again :)

My husband and I needed some time away from life and all of its responsibilities. We found this quaint inn, which is directly on a waterway and less than 5 minute walk to the beach. Everything was spotless and still smelled new - which it was, due to having to rebuild after the devastating hurricanes. The owners are very kind and social, and they made sure we were comfortable. There is a deck directly on the water, including lounge chairs, tiki-umbrellaed tables and chairs. Did I mention the wooden swing for two? The pool is beautifully lit up at night, and heated to a comfortable temperature. The bed was cozy, there was a lot of storage space to unpack and make yourself at home. There was a full kitchenette including fridge, microwave, stove. The shower features a rainfall shower head, or a hand-held wand if you prefer. There is a huge TV mounted on the wall, which we didn't even use because we preferred being outside to wind down for the night. Also worth mentioning - and I don't know how they did this - there were virtually no mosquitos (it's now a sizzling June)! We live in FL, so we are not accustomed to being able to enjoy the outside without getting chewed up. There are several restaurants, food trucks and bars within easy walk. And if you still need to buy beach gear and sand toys, there is a shop also within easy walking distance. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and highly recommend this pretty little inn!

Very nice property. Easy 5 minute walk to beach and Times Square area. Easy 5 minute walk to great waterfront dining. The owner is fantastic. She showed around and talked with us during our stay. I would highly recommend this property for couples and small families

Our trip was so relaxing. Manatee Bay Inn was so convenient to restaurants, shops, and the beach. No need to take the car. The owner, Lien, was a sweetheart and was very accommodating. There is nothing that I could think of that would have made this trip more pleasant. I will absolutely return.

The property in the pool was very nice. The location of the hotel was near all the restaurants and shops in the downtown area. The room had a kitchenette and a small living area with a balcony that overlooked the pool. The pool was warm and comfortable, and never crowded. The deck was roomy and comfortable for sunbathing and just sitting around a table for night drinks at sunset. The room could use some more storage and places for your clothes but overall a very nice day.

The rooms were clean, 2 pools on site. Very quiet and comfortable- but it's just a block or 2 to all of the wonderful things FMB has to offer. Wonderful people that own this place, that are always around for anything you may need. We will be back!

I booked this for 3 people. Arrived and they tried telling me it was for only 2. Wanted me to pay more. I told them no. They told me that they “overbooked” and we had to move into a new unit after our 2nd night. So we had to pack up our stuff and move. Then the toilet seat was broke in this unit, Asked if I could check out late, they said no. People were coming in ( but made me move because they allowed a family to stay one night and messed up our reservation). Asked if we could keep car parked so we could walk to beach, told me I could but only for a short time. This is ironic because when we got there, our parking spot wasn’t open because previous people stayed longer and were in our designated parking spot. Was the place nice? Yes. It’s off the path so it’s quiet but... We had to move and had a broken toilet seat and weren’t given anything for this. It’s all about the money and get as many people in their units.

Cool little hotel. Location couldn't be more perfect. You don't need to rent a car. Everything within walking distance. Not fancy by any means, but exactly what you need. The only drawback in my opinion was the mattress for both beds in my room needed to be updated. I'd stay here again if I go back to Fort Meyer's Beach. Fair value compared to what I saw other places charging & that's why I chose the place to begin with. Two very nice pools with ample seating, sun umbrellas, & lounge chairs.
