The outdoor space is adorable and very private. It was the perfect get away for our elopement. We had plenty of space for the two of us and our two small dogs. They really enjoyed the fenced in back yard. We were walking distance to everything downtown and it was still nice and quiet. Christina and Lulu (sweetest pup) were so accommodating and nice. She even gave us recommendations for beaches and made sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be back to celebrate future anniversaries! We had the best and most memorable time here! :) Would recommend!!! ##### Taylor S.

Since this was pet friendly with an enclosed yard it already was fabulous. When we pulled up and off loaded we were immediately enveloped in coziness. The description of drop your keys and go was right on. We walked to a great Italian restaurant across the street. We didn’t have to drive too far for any of the daily trips we did. ##### Suzanne S.

She always responded. The rental was exactly as it was presented. Cute little apartment very well stocked and clean. Super close to everything we wanted to do. We went to St Armand's circle and Lido beach. Would definitely stay here again. ##### Lisa G. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Marilyn W. 29 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location Disliked: Check-in #### Great location, some issues The good things: The apartment was absolutely clean and the neighborhood is wonderful! Very walkable to downtown amenities. The bathroom in the apt is functional and very nice. Issues and inconveniences: The bedroom is crowded for two people as the bed is in the corner so you can only get in and out of bed on the one side. There isn’t a place to hang dresses or longer items of clothing. There were items left in the frig and freezer when we got there, some perishable. Cooking facilities consist of a toaster oven, microwave and 2 burner electric hot plate but it’s fine if you don’t plan to do much cooking. ##### Marilyn W.

Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Steven C. 14 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Great location with easy walk to downtown Sarasota. Also an easy drive to Siesta Key, Saint Armand’s Circle, and various other beaches. Small apartment in the back connected to the owner’s home. There is a fridge, microwave, and ability to cook small meals if needed. Apartment is clean. A perfectly fine place if you just need a place to sleep and relax a little in between exploring the surrounding areas and beaches. There is ability to do laundry, but just know that it is outdoor in a closet and shared with renters from the top floor apartment. This apartment is pet friendly. Not necessarily a negative, but you should know. ##### Steven C.
