Charming, comfortable, and well located

We loved staying at this charming bungalow. The location is great, with easy access to restaurants, groceries, and bus lines. The beds were comfy with nice linens, and we especially appreciated having space in the common areas to spread out for different activities - someone working on the porch, another at the table, and 2 having a conversation on the sofa. We were very pleased to see the reverse osmosis water dispenser and found what we needed in the kitchen. We hope to stay here again next time we come to Sarasota.

We stayed here last year and were very satisfied. Same for this year! Cocoanut Ave is considered a historic area and we love it, close the to shore, Publix, Ed Smith Stadium, and Lido Key. Home was clean, roomy, and quite comfortable. Host was very responsive to any needs. Will stay there again next year!!

I was there for a family wedding. We didn't spend a lot of time at the house. The kids that we had with us enjoyed the toys and the couple of books that we found for them.
