I've only had 1 bad encounter with someone who was annoyed by our toddler bouncing a ball. However, after this encounter I've never had to deal with her again and only have positive reviews about this place. Buddy and Cindy are wonderful people.

We are part time RVrs. We've stayed at most Encore/Thousand Trails throughout Florida. We've had memorable moments at every park, but Tranquility Lakes is by far the best Thousand Trails/Encore RV Park we've stayed at. This is a gated community with a nighttime guard. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. The staff is always coordinating day and evening events for families, children's, and even date nights. All inside the park. No need to drive anywhere else. The main office even has a snack/drinks area with coffee should you not have time to run to the store. You even get FREE wifi, and it works. All of the employees work in sync to make sure we have all our needs met. The sites are all concrete and very well maintained. There is ample space between sites. Every site is always clean when you check in. Even the dumpster bins and spaces are very clean. Same goes with the laundry rooms. It is not an exaggeration, we try to stay at this RV resort every chance we get. From the clubroom to the pickleball courts, to the pools, they are in excellent shape and always clean. The pools are also very well maintained and ample enough for everyone. The jacuzzi is also very well maintained and clean. The park is just as nice as when they opened up several years ago. The property lake is enormous. The sun sets are to die for (see pics). There is not one thing I can say that needs improvement. The grassy areas and drains are maintained very well; no flooding at the sites. I can stay here all year around and always feel the same about this Rv resort and their staff. Big hello to the manager and staff. Looking forward to our next stay; soon!

We reserved the Pelican House at Manasota Beach Club months in advance for our 20th wedding…read moreanniversary. Leading up to the trip, we made repeated efforts to communicate with the property about details and amenities. At one point, we were told their system had been hacked and that we should not accept emails from them for a period of time. Then, shortly before our trip, we received what they described as an "app," which appeared incomplete and contained little to no useful information. Taken together, the communication issues raised concerns early on. The day before our cross-country flight, we received a call from Charles, who identified himself as the head sales manager and said he was "the boss" when asked about a supervisor. He informed us that the Pelican House was no longer available due to a reported bedbug issue. Regardless of the reason, the timing left us with virtually no ability to make alternative plans. The replacement options offered were, in our view, not comparable. We specifically chose this property for a quiet, intimate beachfront experience with access to amenities like kayaks, canoes, and bikes. The suggested alternatives were larger, more traditional resort-style properties without the same privacy, beach access, or features we had planned around. While these were described as "nicer," the focus was on things like interior finishes rather than the experience we had intentionally booked. What made this especially difficult is that just the day before, we had conversations with staff where we shared that this trip was for our 20th anniversary during a period of repeated family tragedies. At that time, the tone was empathetic and understanding. However, once the cancellation was communicated, that empathy disappeared. The interaction shifted to a rigid, take-it-or-leave-it approach with no meaningful acknowledgment of the impact. We were given two options: accept a replacement that did not meet our needs or take a refund at the last minute--leaving us with non-refundable flights, a car rental, and no place to stay. There was no effort to provide a comparable solution or to help mitigate the disruption. After the call, I attempted to reach Charles again, but did not receive a return call. My wife later received an automated refund email. When I contacted Susan, the house manager, to confirm what had happened, the response was brief and, in our view, lacked empathy--stating only that they "couldn't risk it" because of bedbugs. From our perspective, this experience was deeply disruptive and disappointing. It left us with significant unexpected costs, no accommodations, and a milestone anniversary trip that had been planned for months effectively undone at the last minute.

It is NOT a modern beach side 5 star hotel experience but is a wonderful good for the soul hideaway that is working diligently on hurricane recovery. Conveniently located on Manasota Key Beach Road it is in a quiet stretch of private homes away from the Public Beach but within 5 miles of multiple Tiki Bars & 2 upscale restaurants. 1960's-70's accommodations (Owl Building) that open to a semi private beachside deck are a blast to the past. They are obviously still recovering from devastating hurricane damage but are clean, comfortable, full of vintage furniture, reading materials and a flat screen Roku TV. Free WiFi is available. Beachside they have lots of shared toys, chairs, Paddleboards and shell/shark tooth hunting scoops. Be sure to bring water shoes, diving masks & snorkels as the hurricane has uncovered lots of large rocks and debris making it more of a beach entry reef dive than a swimming beach. The abundance of fish varieties is astounding! Small children & seniors, due to a steep drop off and rocks, may find the pool more enjoyable which also comes with many toys available. Location, location, location and a love for historic Florida experiences drives the price. But the first shark tooth you find walking along the beach, as you marvel at the colors of sunset, you'll feel all that tension leave your body and understand why people keep coming back time after time to Manasota Beach Club. If you know you know.

I'm not sure why this only has a 3 star rating and I hope my review bumps it to 4 and that people…read moregive it a try!! I had a super clean room on the second floor. The room was clean and that was my top concern. There was no elevator which would only be a problem if you have big luggage and have to carry it. Honestly, the openness of the stairway and the solid concrete made it easy to navigate ours to the second floor. The stairs were not steep and the concrete was in perfect condition, not crumbling or in a dark hallway. The bathroom needs a fan though, especially if you are traveling with someone. Other than that, the room was comfortable and had the usual fridge, dryer, iron, ice machine, etc. Our room was decent size and includes a separate area for shower and toilet, sink and mirror to get ready, bed and dressers, then small sitting area with fridge and microwave and table and chairs. There was a tv above the dresser in the bedroom area but we honestly didn't use it so I do not know anything about what channels or reception or anything like that the Port Charlotte/Punta Gorda area has to offer. Swimming pool went unused by us and I honestly do not remember seeing anyone in it during our entire stay! It was up and running and super clean so it's a shame that it was not being used but we didn't have time during our stay and honestly, during a unusually warm October the kids were all probably in school so the hotel was free from lots of children running around. If it was more during the summer it may have been a different story. Breakfast was simple: 2 cereals; toast; pancakes (very thin and small); yogurt; milk; coffee; and tea. No juice; muffins; granola bars; bagels; danishes; or fresh fruit. There was a bowl of oranges (of course - it's Florida after all) but they were all pretty hard and didn't look very good. I would say give this property a try. It is bright and clean and very well lit. It's on the Tamiami Trail so expect the traffic noise - but also expect the shopping and restaurants within easy walking and driving distance. Our total for 2 nights was just a couple of bucks above our $150 limit so we cut out a meal from our trip budget and went with it - and do not regret it - I don't think you will either. Super thank you to the staff at the Days Inn at Port Charlotte/Punta Gorda for keeping such a great property. From the front staff being so pleasant to the housekeepers that were always smiling and courteous! This is hospitality DONE RIGHT!!!!
