A month in Paradise!
We can't begin to describe what a treat is was to spend the entire month of March in this lovely home. The owners have spared nothing in the design of this property and are very responsive to any inquiries. The home is beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable. The view is beyond compare and offers an ever changing vista of wildlife and boats.
Although tucked away in a private setting, the property is close to great shops and restaurants.
We are already counting the days until we return to this beautiful corner of our world.
Beautiful!
This was a wonderful vacation home! The view of the bay was fantastic with all kinds of wildlife, even a couple of dolphin sightings! Everything was clean and comfortable. Great location; close enough to enjoy walks on the beach, but far enough away to avoid traffic hassles. We highly recommend!
Amazing Property
My family and I just returned from a week at this amazing property. On a 5 star rating I give this property a 10. You drive up to find a gorgeous home on a secluded gated waterfront lot. From the moment you walk through the door you are struck by the view of the peaceful bay. Once you get over the awe inspiring view, you begin to see how stunning this property is. Every room is beautiful and designed with impeccable attention to detail. The home’s design, workmanship and materials are all top of the line. The pictures do not accurately show just how beautiful this home is. The kitchen and bathrooms are fully appointed. It is located within walking distance to a marina where for a nominal fee we docked our jet skis for the week. It was less than 10 minutes to drive our jet skis over to the house where we picked up the kids and spent our days on the water having fun and dolphin watching. There are several marinas nearby that rent boats by the hour or day. Watching the sun set while relaxing in the Jacuzzi was a great way to end the day. The home is also close to Siesta Key where you can rent scooters to explore the island or enjoy the beach. Also nearby are major retail stores and restaurants. I highly recommend this property. I plan to book it again this summer.
Amazing vacation home!
The home was just the right size for a family of 5 with almost everything you need in the kitchen to make meals at home. It's a wonderful place right on the water of Sarasota's Bay. We rented kayaks for the week and our kids had so much fun kayaking in the bay and fishing off the dock. We miss the view! Our favorite part of the day was sitting on the back deck and enjoying a cup of coffee in the morning. The view is breathtaking. You will be surprised that even in the middle of the summer, there is a breeze throughout the day because you are right on the water. Only a 10 minute drive to downtown Sarasota and very close to all shopping - 5 min. from Costco!!
Suggestion to the owners: BBQ would make this place absolutely perfect :)
Thank you for your hospitality and troubleshooting a few things during our visit. We would love to come back!
A Dream Location on Little Sarasota Bay
Our journey to Sarasota was hellish - our flight had been cancelled at the last minute and we could not get a direct flight in to Tampa. Having endured a long and fractious journey from London, via Philadelphia and Miami, followed by a 250 mile drive, it would be correct to say that we were not in the best of moods. Imagine then our delight upon arriving at Don and Debbie's house in Little Sarasota Bay, and seeing the lovely gated drive at the end of a quiet residential road and when we opened the front door our mouths dropped open in awe. The house took our breath away, it is so spacious and clean with the most amazing views across the bay. All of the rooms in the house are decorated and furnished to a very high standard. The outside pool and spa area are fantastic and provide the ideal setting to relax and unwind during the day. We even saw a couple of wild dolphins swimming in the bay along with the jumping fish!!
Don and Debbie were extremely helpful from start to finish and gave us some fabulous restaurant recommendations in nearby Siesta Key village and St Armands Circle, all of which we tried and enjoyed. There is plenty to do during the day if you want to leave this idyllic setting, our son got his Scuba diving licence less than a mile away from the house! If you like shopping there is no shortage of malls (regular and outlet) as our daughter can testify to!!
We would definitely recommend this house if you are planning on visiting Sarasota as you will not be disappointed.
We were very sad to leave and hope to be able to visit the area and this house in particular again.
Tropical Paradise
First, let me start by saying, this is one vacation our whole family will remember forever!
When I look for somewhere to stay, I always read other peoples reviews. They always tell the truth about a home. The reviews submitted by other guests staying in this home is one of the reasons we chose to vacation here. I was also impressed with the communication between Don and Debbie and our family prior to booking.
When our family of six drove in the driveway, we were delighted to see the grounds were pristine. However, nothing could prepare us for the reaction we had once we walked through the front doors of Don and Debbie's home!
The view of Sarasota Bay and the pool in almost all directions literally took our breath away! We took a few minutes to sit down, and take it all in.
I then noticed how VERY CLEAN and large the home was. This was so important to me. The home itself is large and amazing. The bedrooms are spacious, the beds very comfortable, and the bathrooms have everything a family needs to ensure pure comfort. The kitchen was great, and stocked with all the supplies a family needs to make meals with. The pool and hot tub were put to good use. Especially by our 7 and 10 yr old.
Now, We are a family that loves to fish, and never in our life have we caught fish as we did while staying at this home. From casting our lines off of the dock, we caught several different species on a daily basis, and were completely surprised. Our friends and families back home were asking us to send them daily updates and photos of the fish we caught. It really was unbelievable. There is also a Marina a few blocks away that is very reasonable in the rental of different types of boats. Something else that really moved us, was seeing the dolphins come in so close to the dock in the Bay. The noises they made would just touch anyone's heart.
We went on a few adventures that were close to the home. Myakka Sate Park to see crocodiles, and also to Clearwater Aquarium which was a short drive, to see the dolphins from the Movie Dolphin Tale.
Siesta Key Beach is also just a short distance from the home, and, a must see.
There are so many fresh markets close by. And, the Shopping Outlets are close by with some amazing stores.
All in all, this was by far one of the best vacations our family has had. We are so grateful that Don and Debbie trusted us with their home. Closing the door behind us, and leaving was a difficult thing for us to do, but, we will be back!!!
