Couldn't be nicer

The owners have done a great job of creating a homy, comfortable space that is very well equipped and stocked. We spent two weeks there while visiting relatives and couldn't have been happier. We will definitely try to stay again next time we plan a trip to Sarasota.

Quiet neighborhood

A nice quiet neighborhood, and a very comfortable king size bed. Easy biking in the development, a large library a block away. Centrally located in the Sarasota area. It could use a BBQ grill and more comfortable chairs in the lanai.

Wonderful stay

Rachel, our host, was great! She answered all our questions before we arrived and was helpful while we were there. She let us know that the house had lost only one screen on the lanai from Hurricane Milton. This wasn't a big problem since it was too warm to sit outside anyway. The house has everything needed to cook full meals. Supplies for laundry and dishwashing are plentiful, and the beds are comfortable. Everything is very clean. If you can walk a little over a mile, it's within walking distance of the Publix grocery store and many restaurants of many types - Italian, German, an Irish pub, breakfast/lunch cafes, a bagel place, and an organic coffee house (Clever Cup). It's a few minutes' drive to Siesta Key, which is quite convenient. We really enjoyed our stay!

Nice but removed from the action

This place was very clean and well-maintained albeit a bit dated. Also we didn’t know it was one side of a duplex rather than a standalone home. We really appreciated that the kitchen was stocked with supplies so that we could cook in as needed! The one main qualm we had was that it was advertised as “location location location” but felt pretty removed from the Siesta Key beach area/restaurants and from downtown Sarasota. (We should have done more research but were unfamiliar with the area.) Granted—we were there on a holiday weekend, but it was a 20 minute drive to the beach on some days. The house is located in a more remote part of town where you’re closer to Costco/strip malls/car dealerships than the beach/cute restaurants and shops. Overall we made it work and truly had a wonderful time!!

Enjoyed our month stay

Great location. Close to shopping and beaches. Especially enjoyed south Lido Key Beach Park on St. Armands Key. The Shore is one of our favorite restaurants there. Third visit to Sarasota/Siesta Key area. So much to do in the area. Rachel was a great hostess. Fixed our meals for most of the month. Found everything we needed in the kitchen and elsewhere.

Great location

This is the best equipped vrbo we have rented. We like to eat meals in, as well as at restaurants. In addition - the location was perfect for us. We are building a new home in Palmer Ranch, and needed to buy furniture and other items. This house was in a perfect location with easy access to all the furniture stores. And an easy drive to Siesta Key and St. Armand's, too!

Enjoyed our time here! Lovely home.

Great home, wonderful amenities, well appointed! Great residential neighborhood, good walking close to library, beach, shops. Bathroom at end of hall, problem with shower in the end of hall bathroom, hot water problems, TV bit complications, maybe a written detailed description for use. We only got NBC. Did not receive any previous maps, etc from VRBO. The back porch a plus, great area for meals, sip coffee in morning.

Clean, comfortable & great location

The house is as pictured in the VRBO listing. It was clean, comfortable and in a nice quiet neighborhood. The king bed was awesome. It is a great location to relative to Siesta Key, St. Armands Circle, Sarasota airport & Venice beach. There is a terrific bagel shop within walking distance. There is a great French bakery and fish monger within a mile of the house as well as 3 Publix grocery stores all within about a mile. We had easy access to I-75 for our trips to St. Petersburg and Naples. Everything in the house worked fine and the furniture was comfortable. I would definitely rent from Rachel again. We had no negative issues during our 2 week stay.

About the host

Hosted by Rachel

Host profile image
In 2002, I left Greenville, South Carolina and moved to St. Petersburg, Florida where I had been visiting a friend for several years. In 2005, I took a great job in Venice, FL and found this precious villa in Sarasota. I worked in commercial real estate for several years, then started a construction company during the 2008 recession. Over the Christmas holiday in 2007, I took a trolley to see Christmas lights with friends, and later that evening I met my, soon to be, Yankee husband, at the Gator Club in Downtown Sarasota. In 2010, we were married in Mary's Chapel at Historic Spanish Point Plantation.
During 2012, my Yankee husband Joe and I moved to Travelers Rest, South Carolina where we now live on 20 acres raising dogs, cats, chickens, and goats. We love our Sarasota home and friends, and we hope you will enjoy the town, the sights, the people, and Gulf Gate as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

The location of this property is amazing for anyone who loves convenience, because if it's not within a 1-3 mile radius, then you probably don't need it! If you want to get to other locations in Florida, the close proximity to I-75 makes for easy travels.
This property has been well maintained and loved through the years, it depicts Old Florida Style at its best! The neighbors are friendly and it is a hop-jump-skip away from the new Gulf Gate Library. Depending on your lifestyle, this is a walk/bike/live community.

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location. Only a 10-minute drive to Siesta Key Beach, which is continuously rated #1 Beach in the United States, and close to all the amazing shops in Gulf Gate Village and Sarasota Pavilion. Gulf Gate is like the new "it" area with new retail shops, bakeries, and a mixture of international food flare that is note even seen in small cities.
