Why the Owner Chose Whitfield Estates

It is a tropical paradise, so much to savour and enjoy.

Owner's Map of Whitfield Estates

I came as a vacationer in 1999 to the area and was captivated, buying a house the second week of my stay, planning and dreaming of the time when I could stay....

Lots of room to kick back

Guest: Belushi (Austin, TX)
Date of Stay: 12/31/09 Review Submitted: 01/13/10

I was in Sarasota with 7 college friends for New Year's Eve and a wedding. Not only did we thoroughly enjoy the house, but we had plenty of room to kick back, chill, hang out, and also for everyone to sleep comfortably. The house came with all amenities you would want on a weekend vacation, and it was a great way to get a bunch of old friends together. We were held up a little at check-in, and were likewise late checking out, but Brian (the owner) was flexible with our needs on both occasions (even though we may have left a bit of a mess!).

Owner response:The group apparently enjoyed the stay and hopefully found it comfortable and spacious..The house is well placed for all that Sarasota and it's beaches has to offer, making it a good choice for friends and family vacations.

The house is exactly how it is describe,very comfortable cozy. It has everything you need towels, linens, kitchen ware. We were very happy. Had a great vacation. Brian was a great host ,even brought us a pack and play for our baby. Looking forward to going back next year Thank you Brian

Owner response:It's very heartening when guests enjoy their stay. This property lends itself well to groups of friends and family, allowing space to stretch out and still have that sense of togetherness. I look forward to welcoming the return of what seems like new found friends....

Great Vacation House

Guest: Staffy (Coopersville, MI)
Date of Stay: 02/03/10 Review Submitted: 02/24/10

Our singing group was in the Sarasota/Bradenton area the first two weekends in February, 2010 and stayed in this house. Brian was excellent to work with and the house suited our needs very well. It is very spacious and comfortable. It was well supplied with towels, etc. There is room to spend time with your friends, or you can find a place to be by yourself. I am glad we found this house on the website. We look forward to working with Brian again in the future.

Owner response:This house is a well located property. The accomodation is spacious and adapts well to groups of family and friends. In it's recent history, there have been a number of renters coming for various purposes, such diversions as concerts, frisbee competitions, weddings, xmas get togethers and golf. All seem to have enjoyed their stays... I look forward to their return !!
