Wonderful home!

We loved our month long stay at this house in University Park Country Club. The home was perfect for an extended stay - the beds were incredibly comfortable, kitchen fully stocked, a good amount of linens and beach/pool toys for the kids. The owner was great to work with and very responsive. I highly recommend this home and hope to stay here again next year!

Sarasota Ballet Summer Intensive

Very well maintained home in gated community in beautiful setting and natural landscape and surroundings. My wife and daughter felt very comfortable and safe for their summer staycation. Fritz, the owner, was very well organized, proactive and responsive at all times. We would certainly return if another opportunity presented itself and recommend it highly.

Fantastic home away from home

Our family has such a wonderful stay (12 year old and 7 year old). The house was so beautiful, the pool was big and comfortable, and the location close to everything (beach, airport, shopping, arts and culture). Fritz was so easy to talk to; he was immediately responsive via text or phone. I can’t think of one thing that we needed that the residence did not provide. We hope to return!

UP experience

The house is beautiful and has a wonderful layout. It is furnished very nicely and the bed linens are fabulous. The pool and spa were a pleasure. It is conveniently located within University Park with easy access to all amenities. The owner was nice to work with and I would recommend this home to anyone looking for a rental property that is very special.
