This was a great property! It was just as the pictures portrayed: clean, spacious, private and very relaxing. We loved it so much I tried to book it for next year but I was unable to do so. We would love to stay here again!

We've been coming to Sarasota for many years and have rented a variety of houses. This small, completely renovated cottage is definitely one of our favorites! It's nicely furnished and equipped, everything was super clean, and it has a wonderful pool. It's also located in a quiet residential area and just a short drive to beautiful beaches, shopping, and restaurants. Contact with Altez Vacation was easy and friendly, questions and concerns were answered promptly.Thank you for letting us spend our vacation here!
