Description:NOTE: I have another unit right next door to this one, same building and floor (AirBnB listing is called: APT UNIT 2 hippest street in Seoul! which you can search by clicking on my photo, then find the list of all my locations). If you have a larger group that wants to stay together, you can book both APT UNIT 1 and 2. Each can house 2 to maximum 3 adults (rooms are designed for 2 comfortably, but 3 has also been done numerous times if you will spend more time oustide exploring the city!). *** we have now NEWLY 100% RENOVATED BATHROOM, 100% repainted room and kitchen walls, and installed large fridge/freezer - photos uploaded! Please note that earlier user reviews are from guests BEFORE new additions and renovations *** Well, in this ultra-hip neighborhood you will be out and about exploring the streets most of the time!! I live just down the street 3 min walk in my other listing: PENTHOUSE hippest street in Seoul (also avaiable for stay USD 209 for the whole 3 bedroom penthouse). Located right in the heart of (literally 2 next street over): GAROSUGIL (가로수길) in KANGNAM (강남, also written: GANGNAM) (=South of River) district of Seoul, the newest, hippest, up-and-coming cafe/restaurant/fashion district in Seoul, Korea. Adjacent to 압구정 Apkujung (15 seconds on a taxi), 도산공원 Dosan Kongwon (3 min), 청담동 Chungdamdong (6 min), across the bridge from 이태원 Itaewon (15 min). =================================== LOCATION IS EVERYTHING ======================================= Strange co-existance of hipsters, salarymen, fashionistas, wanna-bes, european models, foodies, sleep-deprived designers, more advanced tourists, brainy school children (this area is an elite school district), yuppies, poor starving artists and their wealthy nouveau riche landlords all drinking the same latte... some branded stores but mostly clothes designed by local Korean boutique designers, many in their early 20s. and witness daily how a neighborhood transforms from a predominantly niche hangout of the hippest of the hip (late 90s to early 2000s) to a more main-stream-yet-yearning-to-be-alternative locale. not a day goes by without the next grey residential cul de sac being razed, remodelled, and converted into the cafe-of-her-dreams by the local art student or interior designer... it is Korean, yet it's not, it is a version of the West, but perhaps perverse, or comical. It is a street being designed by Koreans' perception of foreign cultures, snippets of experiences from our travels abroad (whether it be schooling, or vacations), it's make-believe... but it is so earnest that it's fun to watch. Like a 10 year-old pretending to be an adult? Well, you be the judge. Beware! All other Airbnb listings for Seoul claim to be in heart of Kangnam/Apkujung but so far (as of 9/13/2011) no other listing is actually in the heart of action. Kangnam technically includes any area south of the river! They are in residential apartment jungles or bland inner streets of wanna-be Kangnam areas. Location is everything. Do not stay at a 10 minute bus ride and miss out on the experience of walking deep into activity every morning.... ========================== BATTLE OF THE NEIGHBORHOODS =========================== So, I am (very much) into up-and-coming neighborhoods. If you are unfamiliar with Seoul, staring at 5 year old Frommers/Lonely Planet guides is not going to give you a fair picture of how things are. As for some other neighborhoods in Seoul, if you want to avoid the disney-landesque touristy, and want much more local genuine crowd, Garosugil is the best. Not to diss some of the other neighborhoods... but for instance, let's take Seoul TOURIST TRAP top 3 places: ITAEWON ------------------ I fail to understand why tourists coming to Korea for the 1st time would even spend 1 minute going to Itaewon (other than tour company busses taking them there like herds of sheep). Until very recently (perhaps last 1.5 years?) this was not an area you saw Koreans go - ever. It is rows of tacky counterfeit stores, seedy/sordid clubs, prostitutes, and other western things (e.g., mediocre western bar food). To be fair, the place is changing slowly. It's fine for we Koreans who live here to go there now and then, but why would someone from outside want to go here? And, It is generally a rather disgusting neighborhood (sorry to be harsh, but that's the truth, I cannot think of other adjectives to describe it). Go there when you get here and you will see what I mean. I am embarassed that many times foreigners form predominant impression of Korea based on Itaewon. Everything is in English and there are no good Korean restaurants here (um, what's the fu*king point coming all the way to Korea then????^ ^). MYONGDONG --------------- Myongdong is where truck loads of package tourists unfortunately get dropped off so that they can run into hordes and 100s of other tourists to buy the same crap that you can get at home, same generic, globalized things. Everything is written in English, Japanese, Chinese. I think the closest thing you will get to this in the U.S. might be Disneyland. No, it's not normal to have store signs in Korea subtitled in other languages, haha. INSADONG ----------------- is the same way, for the most part. it used to once be the center of arts in Seoul (that would have been 15 years ago). Now you can buy nice little plastic souvenirs that no right minded koreans would ever buy. These are 3 areas locals try to avoid, just as someone living in NY generally does not go to the heart of Time Square for dinner. I cannot remember the last time I went to Myongdong or Itaewon. For a simple analogy, ITAEWON and MYONGDONG-equivalents in other cities: -Time Square in NY (faux/touristy/plastic, 90% non-locals/tourists) but perhaps close to Penn Station for the grittiness -Patpong in Bangkok (yup, exactly...) -Cameron Road in TST of Hong Kong(90% tourist mobs, 10% locals that work there, 0% hip) -Roppongi Strip in Tokyo (both neighborhoods are of the same background/history basically...80~90% of people you will see will be other foreigners/tourists...it is as if a HK or Chinese tourist was staying in Chinatown while visiting NY or SF, or an Italian person stayed in Little Italy when visitig U.S. for the first time - yes, what's the point???!!!) =============================================================================== ========== PEOPLE-WATCHING NEIGHBOURHOOD ============================== 5 seconds away from a gazillion 24-hour restaurants, cafes, bakeries, izakayas, bars, lounges, newest clubs (double eight, hall, glam, ellui, answer, boss, i), live jazz clubs, movie theatre (multiplex 5 min walk), fashion boutiques, and mobs of beautiful 20~30's Korean men/women that gather on this street everyday and every night to eat/date/play/walk... But the apartment is extremely quiet all day/night despite proximity to center of Garosugil street. Check out the below restaurants list on Wingspoon (Korean equivalent of Zagat guides): I am a major foodie, so just to name a few...! Formal Korean (hanjungsik, korean rice with 20 side dishes) Korean BBQ (all kinds, from chicken, beef, pork, korean style fried chicken) Korean 24 drinkeries (aka pochangmacha) Korean snack/street foods (ddukbokki, soondae) Korean stew (shabu shabu, sullongtang, jigae, samgyetang, all noodle dishes) Korean rice (bibimbap specialty, congee specialty, and every other combo imaginable) US style brunch (pancakes, omlettes) 'European' brunch/snack (waffles, patisseries) Spanish (2 places) Japanese (izakaya, udon, sushi, curry, donburi, tempura, rameon, yakitori, dessert you name it) Vietnamese (3 places) Italian (I count at least 15 places in a 1.5 mile radius, although only 4-5 are good) American (burgers, USDA steak houses, delis, new american cuisine, NY style pizza) Chinese (Cantonese, Shanghainese, Korean-style Chinese) Spanish (tapas bar) Bakeries (japanese, french, generic dessert shops, and two 24 hour bakeries) French (not the best neighborhood for French, but 3 specialist French dessert places) TexMex (including a new Korean-style burrito place) Neighborhood has similar vibe as: Daikanyama / Omotesando (Tokyo) East Village / Astor Place / Lower East Side (NYC) SoHo / Sheungwan (Hong Kong) Surry HIlls (Sydney) Newbury Street (Boston) Melrose Avenue (Los Angeles) Marina District / Noe Valley / Haight (San Francisco) 11 min walk from Han river (biking, jogging). Police station is literally 3 buildings away!! Super safe. If you are into clubs, APT UNIT is close to Korea's swankiest clubs: Eighty Eight, Hall, Boss, Glam (5 min walking distance) Ellui (hottest and newest club in Korea), Answer (a.k.a. La Blanc Nuit), Club I, Heaven, Eden (3~5 min taxi ride) Volume (7 min taxi ride) ============================================================================== ========= TRANSPORTATION ====================================== 6 minutes' walk from DIRECT, NON-STOP Limousine bus stop to/from Incheon International Airport (Bus Stop: 미성아파트 Misung Apartment or 신사동 Sinsadong stop), bus comes every 15~25 minutes. I have VERY DETAILED maps and instructions to email you, step by step instructions from the airport to the door, once you book the room. 2 minutes' walk Sinsa (신사) Subway (line 3). 6 minutes' walk Apkujung (압구정) Subway (line 3). Too many bus lines taxies to count... ================================================================================ ======== THE APARTMENT ============================================ ** 8/5/2011 update: placed 2 new pillows, 2 light blankets, 4 towels, toilet paper rolls, cleaning supplies** ** 8/9/2011 update: a brand new air conditioner is being installed as I write this!** ** 8/11/2011 update: a brand spanking new washing machine is being installed today!!! and I am now completely re-doing the bathroom interior with 360 degrees of NEW tiles on walls, floor, ceiling (see photos) ** ** 8/15/2011 new walls in all the rooms (bedroom and kitchen) ** ** 8/18/2011: a full-sized large refrigerator (including freezer) and a small fan added to the room! ** 9/1/2011 update: a new, velvet/leather chair added (see photos) ** 9/20/2011 update: a brand new coffee table, and new 2 bar stools added (see photos), a small desk lamp, many more new towels, bathroom floor mat also added. ** 9/22/2011 update: a full KING-SIZED form-fitting latex bed mattress added (see photos), 2 more types of new pillows added. ** 9/30/2011 update: 2 clothes hangers added ** 10/10/2011 update: an additional large oil-coil based space heater (no smell, no noise, safe) and 1 thick Queen sized goose-down winter blanket added to get ready for winter months, in addition to the 2 thinner blankets. A basic, no-frills, private, quiet, empty independent apartment unit (1 bedroom, 1 kitchen room, 1 bathroom - shower only without bathtub) is available in a residential building that I own. Completely stand-alone independent units (NO shared facilities, all separate entrances). Other tenants are designers/artists/students/office workers who work or study nearby. No furniture (but I have a large bed mattress). Waiting to find permanent tenant here. Floor heating (korean style heating of the floor, it is very warm), hot water (gas-powered). Very bright (4 new halogen lamps installed). Separate kitchen room with gas oven. Became vacant few days ago, so I completely renewed the interior yesterday, including a brand spanking new toilet on Monday... Number lock so no lost keys to worry about (I change the number code after every guest). =============================================================================== ========== ROMANTIC....? =========================================== Curiously enough (no pun intended) this APT UNIT has been rather popular with young couples both from Korea and visiting from whereever. Have you ever watched THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON? There is a scene that made an impression on me, towards the 2nd half of the movie. Benjamin gets rid of all his possessions (save his motorcyle I think), and the couple moves into a townhouse in New Orleans in 1963, and starts life (anew?) in an empty house (here it is from the screenplay...): We see Benjamin and Daisy sleeping on a mattress on the floor in the living room... Benjamin Button's Voice Over: We vowed never to fall into a routine, to go to bed or wake up at the same time. It was life on a mattress... And we just see that, a short film of two people who can't get enough of each other living on a mattress... Daisy and Benjamin at various times, while they are fixing up their apartment. They either sleep, or talk, ... or make love, on the mattress on the floor... All of us, including myself, have had (or will have!), similar experiences in our lives, simpler times when all we cared was that we were with that other person, and it did not matter whether we were in a tent, or in an empty room, or wherever. Just a cozy, private space for two of us, without interruptions of the internet, or tv, other things, distractions. You will not find lots of amenities here (what you see in the photos is exactly what you will get, no more and no less, so please do not complain after you arrive that you do not have a tv. if you want to watch movies on tv all night, better to get a room in a love motel nearby). If you know what i am talking about here, you may have that moment again here... ================================================================================= =========== Other ========================================================= Internet - Currently there is no internet in the APT. MOST cafes on Garosugil have free Wifi and are open until 2~4am (you don't want to be surfing the web AT HOME while on holiday). There is a 24 hour bakery/cafe with free Wifi about 30~60 seconds' walk door to door (Tous les Jours: Sinsadong 537-10). In particular, this 24 hour bakery chain (great to surf the web or work while pastries are being baked right next to you!) Tous Les Jour is usually rather empty, extremely clean, and have huge and well lit work tables in the back of the cafe (no, I do NOT own this bakery haha - it's run by a large company called CJ/Samsung). There is a 24-hour PC Room (PC bang or an internet room) in the building 2 buildings adjacent to APT UNIT (3~5 seconds walking distance from door of APT UNIT!) with high speed LAN and other printing, working, scanning needs. Otherwise, during the day and evenings, ALMOST ALL of the cafes on the street and back streets of Garosugil have free and very fast wifi, absolutely no purchase required, plenty of wall AC plugs, plenty of empty seats, and because most of these are very large cafes with 2 floors, you can even just sit there all day and not order anything (if you really wanted to) and happily wifi away and no one will ever bother you one bit or give you trouble (unlike in NY and SF where free wifi is quite limited, AC plugs are rare, and/or you have to purchase drinks to use wifi or the waitress is hovering above you all the time ^^), i found free and fast wifi in coffee shops including: Coffee Smith (a huge, favorite cafe with free wifi, and open very late and very early) Tom N Toms, SMOOTHIE KING, Caffe Bene Apartamento Apkujung Coffee Starbucks, etc. These are all on the main garosugil strip, and almost all quieter cafes and small restaurants in the back alleys (e.g., Bari E Malgm, Cafe LEC are my favorites) all have free and fast wifi in my experience so far. korea is probably the most wifi-ed country in the world. most of the larger cafes on the main strip that i listed above are open until around 3~4am (check with manager, hours vary depending on day of week). no TV (and proud of it). two 24-hour convenience stores 10~15 seconds walk radius from door, two 24-hour bakeries for your breakfast needs.... more info >>

THE LITTLE THINGS Some of the things we have included in our vacation home: cooler for picnics, BBQ grill and fuel, dish and dishwasher soap, toilet paper and paper towels, coffee filters, shampoos and conditioners in both the master and guest bathrooms, shower bar, beach towels are all designed to help you enjoy your stay in our home. As a desirable vacation destination, Fort Myers and its neighboring cities attract thousands of visitors annually. Much remains as it was hundreds of years ago, serene and unspoiled. Mangrove forests, saltwater wetlands, wildlife refuges, tropical gardens, nature trails, miles of winding canals and waterways, and hundreds of islands, some inhabited, some not, provide a magical retreat from the fast-paced world. Fort Myers Located on the southern bank of the Caloosahatchee River and known as the “City of Palms”, Fort Myers is rich in history, Civil War settlement, and Seminole Indian legacies. The wide Caloosahatchee River diagonally divides the city from Cape Coral to the west, and North Fort Myers just across the Edison Bridge. You'll never be bored here. Cultural attractions like the Imaginarium and the Arcade Theatre mix with beach activities. The annual Edison Festival of Light unites everyone in the city for a citywide celebration. Fort Myers is also the winter home of the Boston Red Sox and Minnesota Twins. Cape Coral Northwest of Fort Myers, Cape Coral was originally laid out to resemble the Venice of Italy on the Gulf of Mexico. The man-made canal systems were instrumental in its residential and commercial growth and expansion. There are many popular outdoor attractions here, such as the Sun Splash Family Waterpark. With more than 30 parks, there are also numerous boardwalks and trails for visitors to explore. The Children's Science Center and the Cape Coral Historical Society Museum provide an educational respite. Sanibel Island Southwest of Fort Myers is the popular island of Sanibel, 12 miles long and 5 miles wide, connected at a narrow point. With a reputation for great fishing, windsurfing, shell collecting, bird watching and other outdoor pursuits, the best way to get around the island is by bicycle. Visit the Bailey-Matthews Shell Museum and the Sanibel Gallery. Golf and tennis are available at the Dunes Golf and Tennis Club on the eastern end of the island, the Sanibel Harbour Resort & Spa . The J. N. Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge, is a must-see. Captiva Island Upper Captiva, at the northern end of Sanibel Island, is about 4.5 miles long and a half mile wide. It is mostly a wildlife sanctuary and the perfect place to go for seclusion and privacy. This barrier island is a great place to view dolphins, birds, and beautiful sunsets. Fort Myers Beach Fifteen minutes south of Fort Myers along the Gulf coast is Fort Myers Beach. A popular retreat for vacationers with many quaint restaurants like Channel Mark Restaurant and unique hotels like Pointe Estero Beach Resort, it offers charter fishing, cruises and tours to neighboring islands or all the way to Key West. Entertainment can be found at Indian Creek Plaza. FORT MYERS has a lot of attractions.

POINTS OF INTEREST in SARASOTA County: Our other VACATION RENTAL Condo in ENGLEWOOD, FL is not far away from the miracle healing waters of WARM MINERAL SPRINGS in NORTH PORT, FL - about 15-20 min drive. It is the second biggest warm water mineral spring in the western hemisphere. The legal classification of a mineral spring varies in different parts of the world but it is generally accepted that it must contain greater than 100 PPM (parts per million) of naturally dissolved solids. Warm Mineral Springs water contains a total of 17,349 ppm of minerals, including magnesium, silica, sulfate, chloride, sodium, carbon dioxide, potassium, and bicarbonate, among others, making it the highest in the U.S. and the third highest in the world. Warm Mineral Springs also has a steady pH of 7.3. Soaking in or drinking the water is believed to help alkalize bathers’ blood chemistry. A full array of spa services are also available on site, including massage, acupuncture, facials, reflexology, Reiki healing, detoxifying body wraps, ion cleansing, ear candling, paraffin dips, and body waxing. Although the facilities are a bit dilapidated, the springs are definitely worth a visit. The cost is $20 per day for adults and $8 per day for children under 12 ($18 with AAA discount or $14 for students). A10-day pass is also available for $150. Warm Mineral Springs is open every day, weather permitting, from 9 am to 5 pm. While most tourists head for Florida’s gorgeous beaches, others come to soak in the healing waters of Warm Mineral Springs, which many believe to be the fabled Fountain of Youth sought by Ponce de Leon. During the ice age, Warm Mineral Springs was an underground cave with a lake at the bottom. As glaciers receded and the ice caps melted, the water level rose. Eventually the ground over the cave collapsed, exposing the lake. Over the years, divers exploring this sinkhole have discovered 11,000-year-old remains of prehistoric hunters, saber tooth tigers, a giant sloth, and camels, proving that the cave was once above water. Today the spring is an hourglass shaped geological feature that is 230 feet deep. More than 9 million gallons of warm water flow into the springs each day from a 3000-foot deep aquifer, keeping the water at constant 87 degrees F year round. This water contains 51 healing minerals! Proponents of Balneotherapy – the treatment of disease by bathing – believe that the minerals in spring waters can be absorbed through the skin. More than 65,000 people travel from all over the world every year to immerse themselves in these waters, purported to cure or alleviate ailments that include arthritis, skin conditions, fibromyalgia, stress, pain, and muscular problems. Even those who come to the springs with no ailments claim to emerge from the water feeling better and with glowing skin. There are mostly European visitors there - very health conscious people! Water pleasantly warm and SALTY, more then ocean! Easy to float and swim because of saltiness of water. There is a slight odor of sulfur, but after a view minutes you don’t notice it anymore. Skin becomes so smooth and silky after swimming in this miracle lake and you feel tranquility, happiness, lightness after soaking. People watching is great. Everyone has large hats, glasses with sun nose protectors, hydro-gyro class is included with admission so take advantage of it. People walk in circles around the lake…bring clogs so you do not step on rocks. If you aren’t a good swimmer bring a noodle as it is over 200 ft deep in center but they do have low areas marked off. Every one is friendly and glad to share their stories. Low key resort with a lot of tranquility. Very relaxing and healing. Nice escape from hustle and bustle of every day life. I highly recommend to visit this place to experience it yourself. WARM MINERAL SPRINGS Location: situated approximately halfway between Ft. Myers and Sarasota. Take Exit 34 on I-75 to U.S. 41, then left for 3 miles on San Servando Ave. This site is now a commercial bathing spa advertised as a relief for conditions such as arthritis, rheumatism and skin disorders. Apparently people think the minerals, consisting of high amounts of minerals including chloride, sodium, sulphate, magnesium, potassium, bicarbonate, and calcium, give fountain of youth qualities. Those that drink the water quickly find that the minerals also work as a swift laxative. SCUBA diving is not permitted at this site. Swimmers must stay within the shallow area the is roped off.

ENGLEWOOD's ATTRACTIONS:: Englewood, Fla. – Four natural beaches, world-class fishing, unusual boutiques, and ample golfing are some of the reasons luring visitors to Englewood so it is no surprise the town has been listed as the number two destination to visit in 2009 by TripAdvisor, the world’s largest travel community. Leave your stress behind and immerse yourself in unparalleled relaxation at Englewood. The area offers a wide range of recreational activities that come with miles of unspoiled beach, world-class fishing, power boating, canoeing, kayaking and sailing. Additionally, you will find numerous golf courses and tennis clubs, as well as arts and entertainment to suit any taste. With Sarasota and Tampa an easy trip to the North, and Fort Myers and Naples to the South, the Englewood area enjoys the enviable position of blending the excitement of a major metropolitan area with the laid-back atmosphere of its rural roots. In a very real sense Englewood offers a quiet unspoiled way of life that its residents, seasonal neighbors and vacationers have come to cherish. Englewood is the only town in Florida I know that resides in two counties – Sarasota and Charlotte County. The area was settled in the late 1800s. The town remained agricultural until the 1940s, since the Tamiami Trail passed east of the peninsula. For you history buffs, the house that was once the winter home for Ohio State professor Edward Sommermeir can give you feelings of those bygone days. Today, Dearborn Avenue offers quaint village shops for that special find, a place for brunch, and somewhere to get groceries. Englewood is on the lower Gulf Coast of Florida, about 85 miles south of Tampa. It is one of a number of small towns and cities on the CAPE HAZE PENINSULA. Just across Lemon Bay from the old downtown Englewood, is Englewood Beach on the Gulf of Mexico. Englewood Beach is located on Manasota Key, a small barrier island. The southern half of the key is in Charlotte County and the northern part is in Sarasota County. There are FOUR very good PUBLIC BEACH AREAS on Manasota Key. At the north end of Manasota Key is Blind Pass Beach Park in Sarasota County. South from there, but still in Charlotte County, is Manasota Beach. Manasota Beach (maps..com), Englewood Beach at Chadwick Park, just off the bridge at the south access point, is the most popular and built up. Stump Pass Beach State Park is in a natural setting. There are several local restaurants with good fare but for fine dining one might make the trip to Venice or Sarasota. Local artisans are in abundance and a variety of products may be purchased. Of course, fishing and boating, cruises and charters can be found everywhere. Night life is limited. Using Englewood as your base, explore SARASOTA COUNTY. I would recommend making a day trip to Venice, a charming seaside town 20 minutes away by car. Venice’s historic district is filled with amazing Mediterranean revival and Northern Italian-style buildings, charming antiques stores, and good restaurants. One of the best-known events in Venice is the annual Shark's Tooth Festival. This colorful event, which celebrates the area's natural bounty of fossilized sharks’ teeth, is held every spring at the beach near the Venice Pier. The festival features live entertainment, educational booths, fossil vendors, of course, more than 100 artists from around the State, and great food! The festival showcases shark teeth, shark jaws, stingray spine fragments, stingray teeth, alligator teeth, sea biscuits, and more. But you can collect the teeth yourself by combing a beach of your choice (it’s free and will keep you occupied). The teeth you are looking for are from sharks extinct for millions of years. Sharks which have died sink to the Gulf of Mexico floor. Over time, the cartilage of their bodies disintegrates. Eventually some of the teeth are washed up on shore with tides. Combing these shores to look for the dark gems has always been a favorite pastime of visitors and residents here because these teeth make great collectibles. The teeth range in size from one-eighth inch to three inches and may be black, brown, or gray, depending on the type of minerals, deposits, and vegetation in the soil in which they have been buried. To start your own collection, you have to take a walk along the shore and hopefully discover sharks' teeth, for which the beach is famous countrywide. - Stump Pass Beach State Park is #1 attraction in Englewood The main attraction at this park is the beach and the fact that it has a large amount of sharks teeth just waiting to be found. What makes this beach different are the sharks teeth which are washed up on shore. Many locals walk along the shore line collecting sharks teeth. Most of the teeth are small and black and shaped like a Y, however occasionally you will find a really large one, which is a lovely keepsake of the area! They are usually black because they're so old, but sometimes you can find new teeth that are more gray towards the tip. On occasion, if you are there enough and do enough digging, you can uncover some real monster teeth. These are from the ancient Megladon sharks and can be worth a lot of money depending on the size and condition. It only costs $3 for an all-day park pass versus the 75 cents per hour at Englewood Beach just down the road and it shouldn't be hard to fund a spot as most of the tourism happens farther North up at Siesta Key. Great place to fish, lay on the beach and snorkel. Plus you can leave and come back to watch sunset for no extra cost! Overall, real nice place to go and relax on the beach, swim, eat some lunch, and search for sharks teeth for the day. Best value boat rental I found was at Royal Palm Marina where Mike gave us a crash course in watercraft as we'd never boated before, luckily we didn't crash and all was well. If you like quieter beaches then this is certainly one to visit. - Lemon Bay Tours Do you know why Englewood, Florida isthe Gem of the Florida Gulf Coast? Have you seen the beauty of Lemon Bay?
