We've stayed at this property multiple times. It's always clean, beds are comfy, location is great - close to beaches, grocery and dining - and the host is very responsive. Which is why we keep coming back!

Everything was perfect. Very clean and organized with all the amenities. There were even 2 bikes in the garage. 10 minutes from Siesta Key beaches. I come to Sarasota every 2-3 months to see my 94 year old mother. While in Sarasota I also explore. We were able to drive up to Crystal River to swim with manatees and still be back in time for dinner, explore Myakka River state park’s wildlife and tree canopy, drive to the beach to see the sunset, visit the Mote research center, and still be able to see my mom everyday staying in a place that felt like home. While we never needed to reach out to the host because they thought of everything. Nancy was very amiable and responsive. Highly recommend!

We were visiting Sarasota for the YMCA National Masters Swim Championships. The property was immaculate, furnished and equipped with more than we needed. It was the perfect respite after long days of competition. The fenced backyard was a plus. Nancy responded immediately to any of our inquiries, and was a marvelous host. The location was close to grocery stores, restaurants, and Siesta Key! Would stay here again!

Nancy and Doug's house in Gulf Gate is everything you need to enjoy your time in Sarasota and Siesta Key Beach. Everything worked! All appliances worked, the plumbing all worked, the water pressure was great. If you plan on staying here and are renting a car make sure you rent something small if you are thinking about parking in the garage. I drove my truck down and there was no way it would fit in there so I just parked outside (no big deal). There are plenty of dishes, cookware, and utensils to get you through your vacation. The house is in a convenient location. Close to the grocery store, and many other stores and restaurants. Quiet neighborhood too. I highly recommend staying here if you want to experience the beach life.

Always like staying here. Its so convenient to everything. The neighborhood is quiet, beaches and restaurants close by, and the owner leaves you a generous "starter pack" of supplies. One of the best things about this house is it's always clean when you arrive. Can't wait to return!

The home was in a quiet neighborhood. We attended a function while in area for the week therefore we we out of the house between 6 AM to 5 PM everyday. The house was clean an functional for one couple since there is only one bathroom. The living room TV did not work which was communicated to the owners but they did not respond until after checkout. This was not a big deal since we were out most of the day. Again, the house was a nice place to stay very close to the market- Publix.

We recently stayed at this property for a month. The house was exactly as described, very clean, recently upgraded and remodeled. The host was great, the communication with the host was fantastic. The house was very well equipped with a webber grill, any kitchen item you may need, beach gear, beach chairs and even a pair of bcycles. The area is very convenient for shopping and I have to recomend detwilers market for your grocery shopping.
