Our home, which we call the Living Heart Sanctuary, is a comfortable health-oriented space on 1-acre of private well-treed land we call ‘Peace Forest,’ tucked into the heart of the ‘Olde Englewood Village’ in the small town of Englewood. We are located in SW Florida, on the Gulf Coast.Your hosts Todd and Ellen, nature-loving raw vegans, and our peaceful older dog Sadie, open up Living Heart Sanctuary to you, offering two beautiful, spacious side-by-side double-occupancy guest rooms that share a deluxe guest-bathroom with tub/shower. As your hosts we inhabit the other side of the sanctuary. The open-style kitchen/great-room, an additional sunrise yoga/meditation/exercise room, and a screened porch (lanai) with hot tub become our common spaces, along with the acre of land with a happy combination of shady and sunny spaces. Our community kitchen is equipped with the tools of a modern vegan lifestyle including Vitamixers, Nama juicer, Excalibur dehydrator, veggie spiralizers and more. In our yoga/exercise room are many useful healing tools and mindfully selected exercise and therapeutic wellness equipment. During your stay, we invite you to relax and enjoy the sanctuary space which has been designed with your comfort and wellbeing in mind. Additionally, we supply lightweight kayaks that can be wheeled to the bay for an easy paddle, and bicycles to help you get around town and to the local parks. Our beautiful Manasota Key beaches are about 4 miles away.
