Overview
3 Bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, sleeps 6 plus infants
*** Please also see my other Home on reference number 1071348***
Our stylish 2,200 sq.ft. home has been decorated in beach cottage style, an eclectic mix of shabby chic and vintage pieces. It sits high on a large lot in a private road of only 6 homes close to Phillippi Creek with all its wonderful birds and wildlife. Drive or cycle to Siesta Key, America's No 1 Beach for several years now, (10 minutes by car) or visit the fabulous new Mall at UTC,many designer names as well as all America's favourite brands. The many varied restaurants of Tamiami Trail are equally close by, many offering take out service. Or simply relax in your own tropical paradise, sparkling heated saltwater pool (less chemicals, kinder to eyes and skin), fully screened in with al fresco eating, large gas grill for the excellent local seafood, and a spacious screened lanai! (No bugs or other unwelcome visitors!)The pool is not overlooked and the whole yard is surrounded by lush tropical landscaping.
Our fabulous beach: http://www.cnn.com/2011/TRAVEL/05/27/best.beaches
In 2012 Siesta Beach was named America's Best Beach and confirmed what we have known for years, that the fine white quartz crystal sand has healing powers and is home to many nesting birds and sea turtles. The aquamarine ocean is warm by May/June and remains so until November. A regular morning walk on this stunning beach or a sunset shared with a friend or lover is a magical experience, never to be forgotten. The public beach has full facilities and is busy and popular, we prefer the north end of the key where the beach is tranquil and you can spend hours with a book and hardly see a soul.
Bedrooms: All our bedrooms have fine linens and comfortable beds, the bathrooms are all white with tile floors and all new fittings in 2005. We have cupboards full of towels and sheets, duvets for the winter, sufficient extra bedding for 6 to sleep in comfort.
We have a cot and high chair.
Kitchen and dining: When we stay in the house we entertain our many local friends and family and can easily feed 8 on a regular basis, we have lots of pots and pans and crockery/cutlery! Unlike an average rental this is our family retreat and with 6 children it has to be on a large scale! You can park 5 or 6 cars on the drive and most guests agree there is little need or desire to go anywhere once you settle around the pool. Our only problem is we get too relaxed here and never make all the trips we intended! Our rates are quoted in UK £ and include taxes, electric pool heat, cable and WiFi. We accept US $ checks but all other international payments must be made by secure online banking, Paypal or Online Payments.
A minimum rental of 1 month may apply during Jan-April at owner's discretion. At Christmas we ask for a minimum 2 week rental.
There is a cleaning fee of $150 which can be paid in $ upon departure or deducted from the security deposit, just ask the owner.

Anniversry Trip
Great location, very clean,pool was a wonderful asset,
Wonderful house
The house was perfect. High quality bedding, well equipped kitchen, close to shops and wonderful beaches. Pool was heated nicely and the kids spent hours playing in it in the evenings. Plentiful of beach towels and toys. Cooler and beach chairs were also at our disposal. We plan to come back!

Another Great Vacation
Situated in a very quiet neighborhood (for vacationers who are looking for a break from the rat race), a short drive to Siesta Key’s world famous beach (for those looking for fun in the sun), and right next door to the owner’s immensely helpful daughter (in case any problems do arise) -- this home more than satisfies the real estate mantra of, “Location, location, location.”
But this home has more than just a great location. It is fully stocked with cooking utensils and items for the beach. There is a large outdoor gas grill, a refreshing pool, and an ample outdoor area (but shaded and screened-in) with plenty of comfortable seats for relaxing by the pool.
If the true satisfaction with an offering is shown by repeat customers, then we fit the bill. We stayed for nine weeks in 2016, eleven weeks in 2017, and we have already reserved twelve weeks in 2018.
Fabulous villa, highly recommend
So glad we chose this villa. Susan is very helpful and quick to respond. The villa was even better than the photos and the description. It was clean, tidy and well maintained. We had a fabulous stay over Christmas and new year. Our first ever Christmas away from home we were a little apprehensive about our arrival, but with twinkly lights and the Christmas tree already set up in readiness, it was beautiful. We are a family of 4 and the kids loved the 'Jack and Jill' bedrooms upstairs and with the stunning master en-suite bedroom downstairs opening out on the heated pool, it was just lovely. A home away from home. The villa had everything we could possibly need and more with a very practical layout. Situated in a quiet cul-de-sac we felt part of the neighbourhood rather than tourists and if Susan's villa were for sale we'd be making a purchase tomorrow. Fantastic location for exploring Sarasota and all it's beauty, loads to do and look forward to returning. We loved Siesta Key Village, St Armand's Circle and all the beaches, especially Caspersen near Venice where we spent Christmas day, sifting for shark's teeth and eating steak off the bbq :). Check out Turtles restaurant on the water down near Turtle beach too, beautiful. And don't miss Coquina beach and the market on Sundays and Wednesdays.
Outstanding! Very nice, spacious, well stocked pool home
Very pleased with all aspects of this rental. Great communication, clean and modern home, well stocked with supplies, pool was heated and clean, plenty of space. No complains or concerns at all. Thank you!!
Map
Only 10 minutes from the fine white sands of the Gulf of Mexico and our award winning beach, http://www.cnn.com/2011/TRAVEL/05/27/best.beaches. Moments from the many fabulous restaurants of the Tamiami Trail. A 20 minute drive will take you to the boutique shopping at St. Armands Key with its fine dining and Lido beach, drive across to Longboat Key and Anna Maria Island for a true Florida Keys experience. The famous Ringling Museum and Mansion, the art galleries of Palm Avenue, the Van Wezel concert hall, orchestra and ballet, the stylish new Selby public library and the many beautiful examples of Spanish architecture dating back to the 1920's all remind us that Sarasota truly is the cultural capital of Florida. However bargain hunters and fashionistas are not forgotten with excellent shopping malls within 10 minutes drive, the fabulous new UTC Mall 20 minutes away and a huge designer discount mall at Ellenton, 30 minutes away. Wildlife enthusiasts will enjoy Jungle Gardens, or a trip to the Myakka River to see the alligators
