We had a wonderful stay! Our kids spent loads of time in the beautiful pool and grownups really enjoyed the hot tub. Beds were super comfy. Our host was very easy to get a hold of and a pleasure to work with. Thank you so much!

Amazing Vaction

This place was absolutely perfect. Had two families of 4 with teens and we enjoyed every minute of it!! The outdoor space is amazing and plenty of privacy and comfort inside the home. Close to Siesta Key which the teens loved! Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Great stay

We had a great time, we are a family of 6 and we were able to have a lot of fun with plenty of space for everyone to have the ability to be comfortable anywhere in the home. We soaked up lots of sun by the pool, we really enjoyed Sarasota location because it was easy to get pretty much anywhere from any direction. We would absolutely love to stay again and look forward to our next vacation.

Excellent!

The house is very comfortable with everything we needed including laundry, bikes and beach gear. The neighborhood is lovely, quiet and safe. The house manager was incredibly helpful whenever we had a question. But it’s the pool and hot tub that make this place great. We spent most of our time outside by the pool and loved every minute!

Cute home, great pool and spa

Cute renovated home with nice backyard scenery and in a very high end neighborhood. Great location with a great pool and spa. There were some issues with worms in the house and the toilet backing up. Response time with the property manager very quick. Easy access to local shopping and restaurants.

Great home in a superb location!

My husband and I and our two kids 22 & 25 stayed at this home over Christmas and it was wonderful! The house was just as it was presented online. The outdoor pool and hot tub were fabulous and the neighborhood was gorgeous. We used the bikes provided to ride around the community, and there were several quaint shopping/restaurant areas close by, as well as a fabulous botanic garden down the street. Just perfect for our family.

Wonderful!

My husband and I chose this property for a relaxing getaway. We had an excellent stay! Home is well appointed and so comfortable, in a beautiful and very quiet neighborhood great for walking. It's also very close to downtown and Sarasota's notable restaurants. Check-in/out was seamless, the house was immaculate, and we had everything we needed. We especially enjoyed the lovely pool and hot tub, both very well kept and we were able to control the temperature easily. When we had a question and had to text the property manager, she responded immediately. Super friendly and professional! It was nice to have the good quality beach chairs, umbrella, and cooler that were provided for the days we went to the beach. Can't wait to stay again!

Needs improvement

House is in a great location. Floors, decor, garage, pool, and tiles were nice. Toilets, sinks and open space were clean. Plenty of towels, closet space and hangers. The windows and doors were old - sills & door jams dirty. Two windows were cracked open upon our arrival-can't see. We brought a box of cookies and left it on the counter - morning the counters/cookies were covered in thousands of ants. Things can get in through old doors. Behind tables, couches are dirty. 3 pods left instead of a full box. The garbage outside had the most rancid smell/covered in bugs. We took out both bins on garbage day. The water never really got hot- only to notice the hot water heater was on the lowest setting. Temperature setting is covered with painters tape. We turned the water heater on a higher setting and then put it back to low when we left. Also the water pressure in the showers is terrible. Hot water different directions in each sink /shower in bathrooms. There are no shower doors. The pool had some moss like things all around the bottom corners. Pool floats need to be replaced -coming apart. Weeds growing between pavers, walkway/driveway, backyard.The worst part is the Air Conditioner - it can't keep up with the FL heat. We set it to 70 and left every shade down all day/night. The temperature ranged from 76 degrees to 79 degrees at 10PM! By morning it got down to temp. I think with some improvements this can be a better rental. can't write full review -ltd1500 characters.

This property was amazing!!!! We loved every minute of the pool. It was so clean and so beautiful. We will be booking again for next year. Dagmara was excellent in communication although we really had no issues. Just a few things to note. The sun is blazing in the back ALL DAY. I wish the property would have more umbrellas or shade option. We set up a few beach umbrellas very hap hazardly to get some shade. The outdoor table dosent have an umbrella so we were unable to eat outside. There is one large umbrella out there and we moved it over the pool to get some shade in the water. I recommend pop up tent for on the pool deck unless the owner purchases more shade items. Also the grill is tiny and old. You’re not cooking no steak dinner on it but it was okay for hot dogs at lunch time. Also it felt warm in the house (although we are from Michigan and not use to Florida heat). Dagmara told us to close all the blinds and use the fans which did help but still a bit warm. The thermostat is locked at 72 and won’t go any lower. These are not complaints more of a heads up to the next renter. We will be booking again!!!!!!! I’d give it 100 stars if I could!!!

We were very pleased with our stay! The house is clean and the pool is incredible. The house seemed to be recently renovated, although a bit sparsely furnished. You can’t beat the neighborhood, proximity to downtown and beaches and the backyard oasis. We would definitely stay again!

This was the perfect vacation home for our family. It was in a quiet area and very nice neighbourhood with lots of gorgeous villas around, but close to the beach and all restaurants. The backyard and pool were ideal. Dagmara (the host) was very helpful for checking in or when we needed something. We would definitely stay there again. Well worth the money!

We had an amazing time in this beautiful home! It was a short weekend stay and unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate for us to enjoy the gorgeous pool, but we had a wonderful time. The house was clean and comfortable. My kids especially enjoyed the basketball hoop and the reclining couch ;) we also drove around the neighborhood and admired all the beautiful homes. My sister lives in the area so we’ll definitely be looking to come stay again in the future. Thank you!

Amazing Host and House Manager

We had a great experience at this beautiful property. Margaret was kind enough to let us check out early and she was very responsive with the questions I had prior to booking. House Manager, Dagmara, sent a very detailed message with all house instructions. She even mailed a few items that we accidentally left in the house, which we were so appreciative of. I will recommend this property to any friends who are traveling to Sarasota in the future.
