Perfect location for enjoying Matlacha and Pine Island

Serenity Bay is a great place to stay as you spend time on Matlacha. We walked up and down the road, visiting shops and watching the bird life. We had morning coffee on the dock facing the mangroves. I wish we had stayed longer.

Great stay

Perfect location, walking distance to almost everything in Matlacha, but so relaxing just sitting out back right on the water. Clean and comfortable. The property isn’t new, not much in Matlacha is, but the owner is slowly upgrading/refurbishing. It is perfectly Matlacha - would definitely stay again

Great view and location

Beachy cottage...comfortable studio for two. Very clean, well equiped. Very nice bay view from the back of the property. Excellent location, close to all the shops. Great water pressure in the shower! Waterfront restaurant across the street, less than a block away, best fried mahi mahi sandwich. I'd stay here again... The book with recommended things to do was very entertaining :)

As Described

This place is as described. It’s a bay front efficiency. Place was clean. Was good price and location for my needs as solo traveler. Place is essentially one room with a bathroom and small kitchen area. Didn’t stay long enough to make use of the kayaks or laundry facilities. Only downside was that this unit faces the thoroughfare between Pine Island and the mainland, so traffic was a bit noisy which may pose a problem for light sleepers. Overall, happy with my stay.

You get what you pay for

You'd think, from the description, that this is a bayfront efficiency. The unit actually faces a busy highway - which is 15 feet away. Noisy, smelling of stale cigarettes with a bed that is very uncomfortable. Sharon was great and the water pressure was fantastic. Those are the good points. And, of course, the price was right - although I'd pay the extra $ and find another place if I had it to do over again.

Great stay

Great stay for a great price. Beautiful view, fire pit right next to the water. The space is clean and the decor is fun. Shops and restaurants within walking distance and Pine Island a quick drive or bike ride away. There are kayaks and beach chairs and an umbrella for use. There is a great view from the park.

Serenity Bay

The cottage was very clean and the view of the bay was beautiful. The cottages facing the road are a bit noisy with the traffic. However, the cost of the cottages is very inexpensive and suited our needs for the trip. Overall, it was a great stay.

Location location

Location is ideal for a visit to the town of Matlacha. No need to drive to town if you're willing and able to walk. The courtyard behind the property is very nice for relaxing to read a book, drink a glass of wine, or just drift away while watching the water. Just bring light layers or bug spay as the no-see'ums (biting gnats) and mosquitos can be brutal.
