Charming house, nice decor, great location. House was as described. Had some issues with TV later in the stay that didn’t get fully resolved before we left. But overall very pleased with the house and would definitely stay here again. ##### ANTHONY S.

Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mitch S. 9 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful house with private salt water pool When we first arrived we were almost shocked to see how nice everything was, true to the pictures. It is in a quiet neighborhood but close to a lot of action in Siesta Key, the marina, and downtown. After a few days, we noticed the grass and vegetation started wilting and turning brown so we hand-watered the areas. I called Monica, who is wonderful to work with, and informed her that I located the sprinkler system box and it was turned off. I was asked to turn it on so hopefully that took care of that. I would highly recommend this property and Roelens Vacation Management Company and hope to stay here again! ##### Mitch S. Stayed 10 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jaime H. 1 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect ! This is a lovely ,well thought out home. The furnishings were beautiful, the kitchen excellent and the pool was a tranquil focal point. The beds are quite comfortable ( one is a tempurpedic type) And the master shower had a great "rain" head. Beautiful gardens that were lit up at night. We loved coming home to it ! Thanks so much ! ##### Jaime H. Stayed 26 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephan G. 26 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Pool House This property is hard to describe, as it is so unique. The photos are accurate, but the special “feel” of the house only comes to you standing there. The neighborhood is well situated, easy access to lots of things. The pool is a delight, even though we had trouble during our stay with it not heating (turned out is was a simple fix that just took some time to sort out). Sarasota is quite a nice visit, with time out on Siesta Key ##### Stephan G. Stayed 16 nights in Jan 2023
