About this property

Gulf view! Tiki Bar with outdoor TV! Kayaks, SUP's & Bikes! Now that's Vacation!

Welcome to The Highview at Stump Pass Place Resort adjacent to Florida's highly acclaimed Stump Pass State Park. Come as you are, kick off your shoes, and immerse yourself into this little tropical Paradise. Located on the southern tip of Manasota Key on The Gulf of Mexico, we enjoy offering couples and family's a wonderful value added vacation and a great guest experience as well.

At our resort you will feel right at home the minute you arrive. From your own private Tiki Bar with built in YETI cooler to the lush tropical landscaping and spotless accommodation, we like to think we've thought of everything to make your stay both memorable and enjoyable.

NO ferries or water taxi needed. Just drive over the bridge to our island and enjoy your freedom and spontaneity.

Enjoy this 4 bedroom, 2 Bath duplex overlooking The Gulf of Mexico. Each floor has its own separate entrance. Each floor has two bedrooms, one bath, kitchen, living room and private decks. This home also offers an amazing roof top deck with panoramic water views and the best sunsets on the island. This unique configuration allows everyone to be together on the property but still have the ability to retire in complete privacy at any time.

Just a short walk from the house and you're inside Stump Pass State Park. This is where you will be going to the beach, launching the water toys, and making life long memories. Stump Pass State Park has one of the most beautiful pristine beaches in all of Florida! Make sure to take full advantage of our FREE Kayaks, Sups, beach wagons, beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, sand toys, coolers and more!!

When views, quality and cleanliness are important ,The Highview delivers all and more! Enjoy our beach cruisers bikes, Stand Up Paddle Boards, kayaks, and every other beach toy you can imagine. It's all FREE of charge and included with your rental.
Kick back in the comfortable orange lifeguard chairs and take in the awesome views overlooking The Gulf of Mexico and Lemon Bay. Nothing but blue skies and blue water everywhere. The Highview gets two thumbs up from the locals and is a great spot for star gazing in the evening.


While inside, walk freely around the open floor plan. There's WIFI, four bedrooms with high quality linens, and 4 flat screen TVs. Enjoy cooking your favorite meal in one of two fully equipped kitchens. The comfortable open Living room has a large flat screen HDTV, and beautiful Gulf Views.

Love the outdoors? you'll feel right at home here. Cook out on one of our Weber grills. The picnic area and tables are nestled in sea shells. Found some great stuff at the beach???...Wash off your bounty in the custom built shell cleaning station.

Enjoy the enclosed open top outdoor shower with hot and cold running water and blue sky views. Walk around the property sipping a cool drink and be swept away by the lush tropical landscaping that surrounds The Highview.

One of the best things about this home is it's location. It's right next door to Stump Pass State Park. There are 265 acres of sandy walking trails and pristine beaches. You can ALWAYS find a section of beach all to yourself. The wildlife here is amazing. You will see pelicans diving for fish, Osprey in tree tops, dolphins and manatee swimming the shoreline. Sea turtles lay eggs here every year and don't forget to look for prehistoric sharks teeth (not hard to find) and go shelling at the point.

If you've been here before you know it's allure, if it's your first time, get ready for a soul refreshing journey!

Holiday Beach Time
The pictures on the listing are exactly what you will see when you arrive and we were so impressed with everything this place had to offer. We had 10 in our group (18 and up) and it was great. The beach was a short walk, lots of nearby restaurants and things to do. We would return. One suggestion is to have some lights by the grills in the future. The Tiki area on the lower level was great for watching all the new year football bowl games!

Great house, Awesome View, Plenty of Toys
We rented both units, they are identical 2br, 1 ba each, separate stairs & entry ways. Great communication, impeccably clean, cold AC, well maintained. A great vacation! The ‘end of stay’ cleaning was a little excessive but probably because we left on an early flight out. If you’re familiar with the area you know what the area is like. Really good restaurants, beach access 1/4mi away — we didn’t understand how to bring 6 kayaks to the beach without using the car — I really thought the beach access was way closer from the description. We used the awesome bikes everyday. If you have young kids or elderly or mobility impaired folks traveling, know that the stairs to Unit 7 are plentiful and steep. Really beautifully remodeled with nice furniture, fully stocked kitchen (supplies & tools not spices), awesome amenities. We loved our stay — 14yr olds up to the 49yo and 7 folks in between!

A very nice place
Our family of 10 stayed in units 6 and 7. The units were very clean and organized. Communication with staff was great for check in. There is one bathroom on each floor which was a bit challenging for our size of group and I wish that I would have read the description closer. Much of the beach is restricted by property owners (which I have not experienced before). Therefore, it is a fairly short walk to the beach— but feels longer with toting beach equipment, heat, and not being able to set up in front of certain houses. Charcoal grills were not easy to use- but we figured it out… not real convenient. Access to kayaks, paddle boards., etc., was a big bonus- but you must have a vehicle that is large enough to transport them to the launch (in the park, 1/2 mile approx away). We did a tour with Native Charter Company and their customer service was fantastic. They are only a short distance away from the home.

Even Better Than Advertised
This house is super clean and updated. We rented both units. We had everything we needed. The location to Stump Pass Park is perfect. Even with smaller children we didn’t miss not having a pool at all. They were plenty entertained exploring Stump Pass. Would definitely rent this again! This our first time renting a golf cart when staying on Manasota Key and will always do that for now on!
