Spring break her away

This place is so far removed from the commercial rhetoric, feels like the original low key Florida lifestyle! Beautiful condo, well equipped, the owners are very quick to respond and are great to work with. The hurricane rebuild is still going on, but I would rate this place 5 STARS, without hesitation.

Cute 1 bedroom condo on the beach. Cute decor, updated and very clean! I loved the fact that if I was on the beach and needed something, I could run back up to the condo and get it. Host response time was very quick.

Clean and comfortable

The condo was clean and very comfortable. The decor is perfectly beachy! The location is fantastic, we thoroughly enjoyed the beach, just a short walk away, and the heated pool is steps away. Having laundry inside the unit is convenient. The kitchen and bathroom are well appointed (a picture of the bathroom on the listing may be helpful.)

Summer wind

We enjoyed our stay at Summerwind. Jackie was a wonderful host. She was a quick responder to messages. The kitchen was well equipped. The bed and all furniture were comfortable. I enjoyed the screened in porch for my morning tea and evenings. It had a table with chairs, a lounger and electric grill. The AC worked great. There is a closet in the carport with lots of beach accessories. Chairs, umbrellas, coolers and beach towels. The pool was warm and relaxing. The beach is just steps away. Book a stay at Summer wind. You won't be disappointed.

Great complex and clean condo on the beach!

This is our second stay at this complex and first time at Summer Wind. Our owner Jacky was beyond wonderful and kept in contact checking on our needs. This condo is nicely updated and beautiful from the tiled walk in shower to the updated kitchen and living area. The storage room was stocked with beach chairs, umbrellas and other water items. The scheduled lanai was our favorite area to relax and listen to the waves. The pool is heated to a very comfortable temperature and a great place to enjoy when not on the beach. Many restaurants/bars are in walking distance or Stumpy's shuttle will take you there. This is a condo we would not hesitate to rent again in the future. The only issue if stairs are a problem for you is the numerous steps from the garage level up to the condo since there is no elevator. Otherwise this property is beautiful!

About the host

Hosted by Jacqueline Fabre

Host profile image
Hi! We’re thrilled to share our little piece of paradise with you. Growing up, we spent countless vacations at Englewood Beach, making some of our best family memories along the shore. The sun, the sand, and the laid-back charm of the area have always held a special place in our hearts.

During COVID, we decided to make those beachside memories a permanent part of our lives by purchasing this condo as a retreat for our family. It’s been the perfect getaway for our children to experience the same joys we did—lazy beach days, sunset strolls, and endless laughter by the water. Now, we’re excited to open our home to you, so you can create your own unforgettable moments here.

Whether you’re looking for relaxation, adventure, or quality time with loved ones, we hope our condo becomes your perfect home away from home. Welcome to La Coquina—we can’t wait for you to experience the magic of Englewood Beach!

Why they chose this property

Nestled along the pristine shores of the Gulf of Mexico, our condo at La Coquina offers the perfect balance of relaxation and adventure. Mornings here start with the gentle sound of waves rolling onto the shore, and the salty breeze drifting through the air. Step outside, and you’re just moments away from soft, sandy beaches where you can take a peaceful stroll, collect seashells, or watch dolphins playing in the distance.

One of the things we love most about this neighborhood is the laid-back, welcoming atmosphere. Englewood Beach is a hidden gem—far from the crowded tourist spots, yet full of charm. Whether you’re grabbing a fresh seafood dinner at a local waterfront restaurant, exploring the quaint shops of Dearborn Street, or watching a breathtaking sunset over the Gulf, there’s always something special to enjoy.

The La Coquina community makes it even better. With its heated pool, beachfront sitting areas, and private storage for beach gear, everything you need for a perfect day by the water is right at your fingertips. Whether you’re here for a quiet escape or an adventure-filled getaway, this little slice of paradise is the perfect place to slow down, unwind, and make unforgettable memories.

What makes this property unique

What makes our condo truly special is the combination of comfort, location, and thoughtful details that make every stay feel like home. Unlike a typical rental, this is our family’s personal retreat, and we’ve designed it to be a welcoming, stylish, and stress-free getaway for guests of all ages.
