Very Pleased

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Great communication with the owner. The interior and landscaping have been nicely updated. The backyard with the pool and tiki hut were a huge hit with the kids!

July Stay

This VRBO was gorgeous. We had 6 people and it fit my family comfortably. The pool area was amazing, the pool is not heated but was warm in July. Tiki bar was so cute! We had a great stay and the owners were great to work with.

Amazing property, everything was as described. Short drive to Siesta Beach, lots of grocery stores, pharmacies, restaurants, etc. nearby. Host replied quickly to every question we had. The jewel was the heated pool, so amazing! We will be back!

Fun Christmas in Sarasota!

The home was awesome! For the first time I found a place to look better than the photos. I'm had plenty of space for two families. The house is very comfortable, and a pleasure to stay in. The backyard had a terrific pool and an awesome tiki Hut! My family and I will definitely stay there again Eugene

Perfect Getaway

This was a perfect place for my family to spend Easter weekend. Easy check in process, beautiful home with a fantastic back yard with cute tiki hut, 2 grills, ping pong table & trampoline Quick trip to any location - just minutes from the south bridge over to Siesta Key beach as well as any grocery store, drug store, restaurant etc in the area. 15 minutes to downtown Sarasota and St. Armands Circle. The owner is very communicative and helpful. The house is super cozy and very clean! We will absolutely be back. Thank you for having us!
