About this property

Downtown Sarasota, Casa de Zara

Welcome to Casa de Zara! Immerse yourself in Sarasota history by staying in our quaint Adobe style home built in 1925 with a serene garden filled with plants and trees native to Florida. You will be 1 mile from Main St. and 4 miles to Lido Key. One block over you will find a fun filled park with tennis and pickle ball courts, a walking path and basketball courts. Less than a mile away is Bayfront Park which is perfect for watching sunsets!


Our home was built in 1925 and is an adobe-style home. With our concrete walls and 10 foot ceilings, the home is very light and airy and stays cool with the warmer climate. We also have several seating areas outside to take in the serene garden that is full of exotic plants native to Florida!

Here you can take advantage of 2 bedrooms and 1.5 baths. You have one bedroom that is set up with a king size bed and the other with a queen size bed. Off of the living room, you will find our lounge area that has a queen size pull-out bed. You can find backup linens in the bedroom closets and backup towels in the half bath.

The kitchen is stocked with all of the essentials, pots and pans, and cooking utensils. There are many grocery stores nearby, Publix being the closest!
