Very convenient to stores, restaurants, beaches, biking, parks and trails. We loved this location and the house was spacious and had everything we needed. The pool was fabulous and the lanai was perfect, we enjoyed most evenings outside. Great for families or couples, I highly recommend. The Butterfly House in Gulf Gate Estates is the perfect community for your stay.

Hi Sue! Thank you so much for making The Butterfly House your home while visiting amazing Sarasota and surrounding areas. We are so glad you enjoyed the pool, we looked a very long time before purchasing as we were looking for the kind of privacy the large pool and covered lanai area offers. We love Gulf Gate Estates as it provides easy access to so many dining, shopping, parks, biking/walking trails and of course, the best beaches FL has to offer. We are happy to see that you are returning next year! Thanks again for choosing The Butterfly House!

Great location

This home is a perfect location for restaurants, shopping, and most importantly close enough to Siesta Key beach. It's about a 10 minute drive to the beach.Rick and Sandra were always available and able to help whenever we contacted them with issue.The butterfly house was clean and we really enjoyed the lanai and pool area.
