About the host

Why they chose this property
We have come to the area for years but over covid spent a month in Sarasota exploring and riding a bike around town and fell in love with the little Goldielocks feel of the area ( not too big, not too small). The indian Beach sapphire shores area has a rich history and it’s got this jungle feel 2 blocks to the water with all these amazing huge homes but it’s a really old neighborhood so with all this lush overgrown greenery, it’s really peaceful and clean and nice. Being by the school ensures the safety of the area but it’s also really quiet and we don’t mind that at all and love wandering the hood in the evenings around sunset. It’s also super close to downtown and lido beach which is our favorite.
What makes this property unique
One block away you have this adorable local coffee shop/bookstore, a local bar with good food and fancy cocktails open until 2 am, and a Starbucks, Walgreens, grocery, dunkin all within 2 blocks so it’s walkable but not in all the busy areas and so it feels like you have the best of both worlds
