Thank you for your kind review, Yuri! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at our property at The Stand. We would love to welcome you back anytime!
We loved the location - right on the canal. Close to everything downtown. The layout of the unit really suited us. And very quiet.
Kitchen was well appointed and we appreciated having a grill on the deck.
Management was very responsive when we called about some small repairs

Very easy to get everywhere
Good location to area. Condo was good. Would have been nice to have someone we could ask questions and check in was kind of goofy. But once we got our bearings all was good

We appreciate your patience and look forward to welcoming you back soon!
Clean, brand new condo. Everything you could need was supplied. The location is excellent - walking distance to downtown Sarasota. The view from the balcony was our favorite part. We could sit and watch the Pelicans all day! We also enjoyed the pool and gym and found other residents to be be friendly and helpful. Communication with Clara was excellent. She went above & beyond answering our questions including getting us EV charger info.

Thank you so much for submitting such a positive comment! We are pleased to hear that you had great communication with our staff. We do our best to ensure that your stay is memorable. We look forward to hosting you again soon.
We have been coming to Sarasota for a number of years now and this is about one of the best we have found.
Everything about our stay experience was first class. As a former Property manager myself I was more than impressed with the standard of professionalism from Clara and the Orquera team.
Everything regarding the apartment rental was first class.
The apartment was spotless clean and spacious enough for myself and my partner Eleanor, with everything you would need for your stay.
The view from the balcony was splendid and the Bed was one of the best and most comfortable I have ever slept in.
We will definitely use this company again.
