Sarasota weekend

The condo was in a perfect area to walk to shops and restaurants. Our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. Melissa was an excellent host with immediate responses for whatever we needed. We will definitely rent from her in the future.

Perfect couples or single unit

This place is cute and just a perfect size. I’ve stayed at Melissa’s property at another unit and she really went out of her way to make this stay very welcoming and comfortable. Thank you Melissa! This place is in a perfect location, quiet, and really was nicely decorated. All modern amenities. I’ll be back when I have to come visit family in town.

The unit we stayed had terrible parking options. It was in a strange looking neighborhood. It was walking distance from downtown which was good. There were steep stairs going up to the apartment.

Response from VrboOwner on 2 May, 2024
Hi Ilene! I super appreciate the feedback. This is my first 3 star review I’ve ever received on any of my properties on any of the booking platforms. I do apologize the reserved private parking space for you, in front of your unit …did not meet your needs nor the optional free off street parking or parking across the street at the park which all 3 options were sent to you in your welcome message. I’ve never heard anyone call the neighborhood “strange looking” before. It’s a very clean & safe downtown neighborhood with multimillion dollar homes including this property. It’s definitely not a stepford wife subdivision setting. The stairs are normal, average code compliant stairs every one uses to get to the second floor that look just like the photos in the listing you looked at when you booked ;). If your travels bring you back to Sarasota in the future, I’m happy to help you choose a different unit without stairs. These units are fantastic for folks who want to travel within a smaller budget as hotels in the same area offering the same accommodation as this unit …go north of $300 and then some. Again, thank you for the feedback Ilene.
