Villa Lemon Twist, Manasota Beach, Gulf Coast

Welcome to Lemon Twist, an idyllic Florida escape nestled on the banks of Lemon Bay, just a short stroll across the bridge to the pristine sands of Manasota Beach. You'll be mesmerised by breathtaking views of the wide intracoastal waterways and the majestic wildlife that call them home. As you step inside the stunning interiors, you're greeted by a spacious great room with twelve-foot ceilings and expansive glass sliders that offer uninterrupted views of the water. Every detail of this home exudes elegance and sophistication. Relax on the plush leather reclining sofas, watch your favourite show on the flat-screen TV, or settle down in the den with a good book and admire the sublime surroundings. The kitchen is a culinary masterpiece with its gleaming stainless-steel appliances, granite countertops, and oversized island with bar stools for quick bites. The dining area is a visual feast, framed by large glass windows overlooking the pool area. The master bedroom suite is a luxurious retreat, exquisitely furnished with Bahamian-style furniture and a king-size bed. Relax in the private sitting area with a flat-screen TV or soak in the garden tub in the ensuite bathroom. The second master bedroom is equally breathtaking with its king-size bed and shiny ensuite bathroom with walk-in shower. Enjoy private access to the lanai and awe-inspiring waterfront panoramas. Two additional bedrooms, one queen and two double beds, share a decadently built five-piece bathroom.

But the true magic lies outside, with a tropical and tranquil west-facing deck designed for ultimate relaxation. With a sparkling heated saltwater pool, bubbling spa, lounge area, and high-top bistro dining space, all overlooking the glistening waterfront. Just when you thought it couldn't get any better, there are bikes, beach chairs, fishing equipment, sand toys, and floats are just some of the added extras. Perched on the chalky-white sands of Manasota Beach, you’re just a short hop from the beach here. Dip your toes in the sand or jump on a kayak for some coastal exploration. Next door is the charming town of Venice, with seafood shacks, upscale restaurants, ice cream parlours, and boutique shops spilling over the historical Main Street.
