Beautiful home and close to the beach! The pool and layout of the house is welcoming. It's a private oasis! It was difficult to get a response back from the management company regarding a late check-out, but it was a great time overall. The house is for sale, so not sure if it will be available as a rental for VRBO much longer.

The house was very nice! Enjoyed the pool! It was not too far from the places we wanted to visit. We would rent this again

Exterior Needs Attention
Overall a nice stay. The interior of the home was clean, spacious and as pictured. The exterior could use some maintenance. The grill was so rusted it was unusable, lounge chair had holes in it, there was no hammock as pictured. The tiki bar and pool are looking a little worse for wear.
The house was so charming - set up like an Italian villa. Lots of space and the backyard was fantastic. We donated some beach and bath towels from Amazon based on the reviews. The only thing I might change is some nicer bedding and pillows. It was chilly at night and we were cold - so we used the extra blankets from the living room. A light comforter would have made it perfect.

SPACIOUS
Large and comfortable house with separate bedrooms and bathrooms offering appreciated privacy. Nice lanai with eating area and pool/outside view. The pool is not heated and was too cool to use during our stay (late February). Comfortable lounge chairs; tiki bar was not usable. The Wifi didn't work during our stay. Well stocked kitchen with utensils, pots, cooking and eating paraphenalia. Very convenient to downtown Sarasota, beaches and shopping and restaurants. Overall a very nice house.

Mom daughter trip
It was our first mother daughter trip in a long time and let me say! We had the BEST time in the most BEAUTIFUL home. The amenities were amazing, so cozy and modern, along with an amazing outside oasis area. Shopping and good food close by, Main Street Sarasota is beautiful day and night! Contact with owner was superior, even getting to extend our time an extra day! We all around had the best time making amazing memories! Lots of laugh and love come from this home and will recommend to all family and friends! Can’t wait to go back and visit!!
The property was very nice and is suitable for many guests. There was plenty of privacy with the split bedroom arrangement. The backyard pool area is beautiful. We felt like the outdoor bar area and seating was not cleaned before arrival and had bird droppings on the chairs. The kitchen definitely needs more dishes, glasses, pots/pans, etc. Not nearly enough supplies for this size of a home.
We enjoyed the spacious, well-furnished home, with large, screened porch and outdoor pool and bar-b-q area.
Three separate bathrooms, close to the three bedrooms gave each adult couple their own private space. Limited cooking "tools" so we brought our own pots and pans. Also very few pool towels and bathroom towels. Tiny dishwasher required multiple loads per day but everything worked and we all enjoyed. (Pool waterfall was not working during our stay)
Our family of 5 stayed for 8 days and had a relaxing time. the bedrooms were spacious and provided privacy for everyone whether working or relaxing. The location is close to Siesta Key Beach and good supermarkets which we visited several times. Some of the best features of the house are the pool, the large family room with a big-screen TV and a large dining room table. Very nice for hanging out and entertaining. We ate many meals on the screened-in porch overlooking the pool.
The items of constructive feedback -- if you like to cook the kitchen has newish appliances but very few cooking pots, pans, cookie sheets, Pyrex dishes, serving platters, silverware (we bought a brand-new set of Reed & Barton silverware and steak knives and donated it to the house). We like to cook and struggled to make it work. The linens and towels were pretty old and thread bare - we recommend buying new ones. All easy and inexpensive fixes.
We would stay again!

AMAZING
This was a couples trip for my husband, myself, and two other adult couples. We travel a lot, whether by ourselves, with our kids, with friends, business, etc., and this was by far the best place we’ve ever stayed! The home is stunning and has everything you could possibly need. One of the most beautiful beaches (siesta key) is literally a few miles away, and we were perfectly happy with staying at the home a few days bc we felt like we were at a resort. The home is conveniently close to town, but not noisy at all. I can’t say enough about how amazing this place is! The rooms are large & nicely spread out to add privacy. And the home is so much bigger than it shows in the pictures. The pictures don’t do this home justice. It’s stunning, inside and out! And the host…I can’t brag about her enough. Any questions we had, she was super quick to respond and very pleasant. Never made me feel like a burden or inconvenience. We are already planning our next trip, and this will definitely be where we stay!!!!! If there was anything at all to mention, we only had a hard time figuring out how to get the hot water to work, but the host quickly informed us that it was switched for the hot and cold. Easy fix. Cannot wait to stay again!
