Everything was as presented. The owners were responsive and kind. Location was great in terms of accessibility to everything. The only minus was it wasn’t a location conducive for walking. Otherwise everything was spot on. Great amenities, lovely view. Overall terrific.
Host was communicative and the place was well designed and equipped with all the things we needed. Preparing for HOA and getting into the condo was a bit complicated compared to a hotel experience, but explained thoroughly and led to us feeling safe during our stay. We enjoyed having access to the amenities like the pool, gym, and kayak launch. Saw some great sunsets! The elevator was not working for several days, but I’m sure this is rare as the building seems new. The king bed was very firm, keep that in mind if you have a preference. Location was good, but having a car is needed as busy road was not enjoyable to walk on.
very safe and close to everything. just a short trip over the bridge to shopping and beaches. very clean property and great communication with managers.
This property was cute, had a beautiful view of the canal, beautiful kitchen and bathroom. It was a short drive, or walk into the downtown and the neighborhood was safe and secure. I would recommend this place for anyone.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
We stayed ther 10 days, and we would have given 5 stars, but because the second bedroom, regarding the bed, was not usable its only 4 stars
The bed is not only not comfy, with every move its very noisy. That needs to be changed .
Although hurricane Ian cut the visit short, the property was amazing and immaculate! The manager was extremely helpful during the evacuation process. The location was excellent right near downtown Sarasota and the condo was absolutely beautiful!!! Would stay again in a heartbeat!
