We only had the opportunity to stay at the Englewood Bay Motel for one night. We were vacationing in the Orlando area and planned a fishing trip for Boca Grande some 3 hrs away. So we needed a hotel close by for the night before.
When I first contacted Joe about being able to book just one night at his hotel he responded very quickly and was very accommodating. We booked an efficiency and he waved the housekeeping charge since we wouldn't be using the kitchen. And he let me know as soon as my check had arrived.
When we got to the Englewood Bay Motel we were happy to find it not only very close to the beach, but extremely clean and well kept. Everything had been recently redone on the inside and the property, although in the process of getting a sprinkler system was also very well kept. Joe even upgraded us to a one bedroom that happened to be available, at no extra charge. He was very informative on the location of things in the area and even suggested a great seafood restaurant across from the beach...which we ate at and loved. It not only had great food, but a great view of the sunset with a nice breeze coming off the ocean. Joe even went as far as to accommodate us by letting us take showers after our fishing trip before heading back to Orlando (a true life saver).
When we do make it back that way again we will definitely stay at the Englewood Bay Motel.

I am a traveling nurse and usually stay at one location from three to four months. I lucked out on the Englewood Bay Motel - convenient location, newly remodeled units, immaculate, and terrific owners. I'm hoping to be sent back to the hospital because I know just where to stay!

I stayed at the Englewood Bay for a week in April. I had a very nice room with a separate kitchen, living room, and bedroom. It was clean and neat. I had everything I needed in the kitchen for utinsels and appliances. The atmosphere there was quiet and I didn't have a problem with anyone. It was centrally located and convenient for me to stay at in Englewood. I will be staying there again.
