Quiet and peaceful oasis

This is a lovely peaceful cottage set in woodland and seems miles from the bustle of the city yet is only a short distance from shops, the beach and all the attractions like the very interesting Ringling Museum. Kat was a wonderful hostess and so helpful when we had a flat tire and no cell-phone reception.

I'm glad I could help with the flat tire and was there when they needed to use my cell phone (the cottage has cable and internet but does not have a land line)!

Peaceful oasis in Sarasota

A gem of a cottage surrounded by natural beauty, peace, and quiet. Location wise it’s so convenient for accessing the main sites in Sarasota, but when you arrive back at the cottage you’d think you were way out in the wilderness. The cottage was well appointed for our brief stay, and had plenty of spaces to just relax inside and out. Kat the owner was a welcoming host, with good communication throughout our stay. We enjoyed the stay here so much, and look forward to staying here again when back in the Sarasota area.

Wonderful escape for the busy city

Great location in a beautiful tropical setting. Spacious two bedroom cottage with a relaxing porch. Kitchen was great to cook in. Lots of hot water, good water pressure. Excellent heat and A/C - we used both due to the variation in the weather. Kat was a great host who gave us a lovely tour of her property, her hen house, gardens and even a tree-ripened papaya to enjoy. Would highly recommend.

A quiet peace filled getaway, away from crowds to be covid safe.

the cottage was a hidden gem in the middle of a city, tucked away in a wild life habitat it felt like camping but with luxuries like a full kitchen, a/c, clean bathroom and a comfortable bed. We enjoyed binge watching "The Crown" on netflix and sitting on the screened porch enjoying the nature and critters all around us, we strolled along pathways into the woods and overall felt relaxed. And yet we were close to a variety of local tourist and cultural activities that make up the beauty of Sarasota.

Beautiful Cottage!

We stayed at this lovely cottage the whole month of February. Wish I had another month there! The cottage and the grounds are truly lovely! There is plenty of room to chill out, and relax if that is what you want. Kat, made sure we had everything we needed and then some. The location is just perfect! We didn't have to drive far to get to any shops, restaurants, or the most beautiful beach in Siesta Key. You will not regret staying here! A beautiful garden, real chickens and fresh eggs await you. Rent this cottage; you definitely won't regret it!

Garden of Eden!

We just returned from an entire month in this wonderfully quiet, peaceful cottage and truly wish we could have stayed on longer. Everything was exactly as described and more. Our favorite activity (?) was sitting on the screened in porch simply enjoying the jungle-like environment. It is the best of Old Florida. Kat couldn't have possibly been more helpful with everything from restaurant recommendations to cable TV issues to sore shoulders and ham strings. The gardens and chickens added to our enjoyment. Kat even shared a corner of her garden with us so we could plant some lettuce. Would love to move right back!

It was a pleasure hosting Gail and Drew's first Sarasota vacation, and I am thrilled (and proud!) that they enjoyed their stay. I liked the fact that they "lived" the house and property. It was a first for guests using my garden, but I was happy to allow it and will certainly welcome it in the future. They left the house tidy and promised to come back. I will hold them to that. ;)

A Slice of heaven in a 6 acre private reserve in the middle of Sarasota Florida

The guest cottage offered by Kat was exactly as described, and just as wonderful. It is very private, very safe and full of natural beauty with chickens to make friends with, turtles in a lake to watch and hiking trails. We were only able to stay 6 days, March 30 to April 4, 2015. Kat is a wonderful hostess, sharing her eggs and making sure we had everything we needed. It is close to all of the shops, Mote Aquarium, Bird Sanctuary, restaurants and beaches, but then you come home to a very quiet, private guest house. My husband (65) and I (58) traveled with our 8 year old granddaughter and she loved it as much as we did. She was often curled up in the hammock with a good book or her Nintendo. We didn't want to leave and will probably rent it again in the future.
Respuesta de VrboOwner el 21 de mar de 2020
Hosting Robin, her husband and their granddaughter was my pleasure.

A Tropical Haven

We were so lucky to find this haven in the middle of Sarasota. The property is like a park, really lovely and peaceful with a trail through it. It backs up to Red Bug Slough which is a great place to walk and see wildlife. Kat made our stay fantastic. She provided us with lemons and fresh eggs from her hens on our arrival which we really enjoyed. She supplied us with a cookie sheet when we decided to bake cookies. The cottage is obviously well-maintained with a great screened in porch and hammock. We loved that it was centrally located to all the sights - Marie Selby Gardens, Big Cat Habitat, the Ringling Museum, Siesta Key Beach, Mote Marine, Myaka State Park and more. Nothing seemed all that far away. We would definitely recommend for those that like a peaceful setting.

A great place for a getaway.

This was my family’s first official spring break trip. We wanted to hit all the local hot spots and must-visit beaches. But we also wanted some downtime away from the hustle and bustle of the crowds that come with visiting Florida in late March. This was the place to be. To unwind, relax, and reset after fun-filled, sun-drenched days at the beaches. Kat was an excellent host. Even though it’s a guesthouse on a shared property, you’ve basically got the place and property to yourself. She’s as hands-on or as hands-off as you want her to be. Super attentive—and warm and welcoming as can be. Fresh eggs upon arrival? Check. Fresh berries during your stay? Check. And wildlife aplenty.

Perfect location

This home is truly a piece of paradise in Sarasota. Kat is a remarkable hostess and is available to answer any and all questions. There are 3 outdoor roms in this guesthouse. So whether is rains or is sunny you have a place to relax in the outdoors. Our favorite time was to eat breakfast in the screened in porch. The house is decorated beautifully with a mix of antiques and contemporary furnishings. The kitchen is fully stocked including a water cooler. Upon our arrival there were fresh eggs in a basket that we enjoyed eating all week. The grounds of the house are tropical with a water feature and in the guesthouse backyard that can be turned on and off to your liking. Siesta Key beach is less than 5 miles, but in the high season it may take 30 minutes or more to reach it. This is a great property to use as a "home base" for sightseeing in Sarasota/Venice area. It lifts your spirits as soon as you enter this sanctuary! I can't wait to return to Kat's paradise next year!
Respuesta de VrboOwner el 21 de mar de 2020
Michelle and her mother were such wonderful guests. I just loved it that they seemed to truly enjoy being here, and they left the house beautifully clean. I certainly look forward to their return! February and March are always Sarasota's busiest months, but traffic this year has been worse than ever! Depending on the time of day, getting to the beaches can take longer than usual these months, particularly if one of the bridges is open to let boats pass under. I agree with Michelle: my property is a good base to visit all of Sarasota's attractions (and surrounding). At least during high season, visitors who want to spend all of their time at the beach would probably be better off staying on the beach.

Beyond expectation

It was our annual girls weekend, myself, my dtr and granddaughter. We had stayed at a nice hotel before and I was a little worried, needlessly. It was so peaceful and private. I loved the antique feel along with modern amenities. The a/c worked great and the new cabinets and frig were awesome. I did turn the dehumidifier off during the evening when we were there since it blew hot air. There was a large spring water dispenser and even a bag of ice in the freezer. Lots of condiments, towels, whatever you might need. Air conditioned sunroom, patio with hammock and all that beautiful property to view while having coffee. And chickens, who we got to meet. The owner left fresh eggs in the frig and they were delicious. And speaking of the owner, Kat, she was so friendly and interesting to talk to. Wish we could have spent more time with her. She lives on the property but was totally unobtrusive. If you are looking for a unique and peaceful getaway, book this now. If you want a cookie cutter hotel, well, what can I say? We will be back 💜

Respuesta de VrboOwner el 2 de jul de 2021
I was surprised and disappointed to read this review as Melissa was very kind while here and had nothing but good things to say about the property and about me. I invited her and her party to a fun event the night of their arrival and gave them fresh eggs from my hens and, in return, she thanked me for my hospitality more than once and texted "You've been wonderful. Thank you so much!" to me before leaving. I reached out both via text and via VRBO and asked Melissa to please tell me what was wrong so that I could improve as a host, but I got no response. I don't understand the point of writing an "It was alright" review without any explanation. The only things I can think of, both of which I thought had been resolved, are these: They reserved on the 10th of June and I sent my rental agreement that day. Five days later - three days before their arrival - she emailed me to ask if there was a designated smoking area because three of the party were smokers. It says in my listing and in my rental agreement that "Smoking is strictly forbidden inside the Guesthouse and anywhere on the Property." I called VRBO and offered to refund all of their money if they wanted to find somewhere else to stay (VRBO was going to allow me to cancel the reservation and keep their money due to the short notice). Melissa assured me that smoking was not necessary for them and that they preferred to keep the reservation. I thought that issue was resolved and that we had moved forward. Secondly, at 10pm their second night, Melissa texted me to ask if the fire pit was available for use by guests. My rental agreement says that the fire pit is "off-limits to Guests unless approved in advance by Owner." I told her that I wouldn't mind, but not at 10 at night. It is very dark on my property, I would have to collect wood, pull the tools out of storage, explain everything and stay awake to be available while they were using it. Her response was, "No problem at all, was just curious." If these are the reasons for the dismal review, then so be it. I put my heart and soul into my property and try to accommodate guests to the best of my ability. I hope my other reviews over the years demonstrate that.

Peace and quiet

Kat is a warm and friendly host who won’t intrude but is readily available. This was a wonderful getaway that allowed us to rest and relax in a beautiful naturescape. The proximity to everything the city offers while being tucked away in a little bit of natural paradise is fantastic. We hope to be back in the future!

Christine and her parents were wonderful guests. Christine was very easy to communicate with before and during their stay, and they treated my cottage and property with much care and respect. I would love to have them come back!

I am passionate about nature, gardening, fitness, nutrition, traveling, languages, food, living off my land, mountains, hiking, writing, music...to name just a few of my “hobbies!”

My family has been in Sarasota since the 40s. I was born in Sarasota but lived over a decade of my adult life in Italy (Siena and the Alps). I own a private fitness studio where I offer one-on-one training sessions and nutritional coaching. I am certified in personal training, corrective exercise (including pain management), sports nutrition and peri- and post-menopausal fitness.

I moved from Italy to Sarasota a few years ago to take care of my parents. This magical property has been in my family since the 60s, when this area was mostly undeveloped. It is my oasis, my connection to my roots. I have an organic garden and orchard and 12 hens. I am an acknowledged “plant geek” and somewhat of an environmental, food and nutrition activist. I thrive on helping people make positive changes in their lives. I realize how lucky I am to live on this slice of paradise and am very excited about sharing it with others who appreciate it.

Por qué escogió este alojamiento

My father brought this property in 1968. My earliest memory is being on the guesthouse porch when I was a kid and my grandmother lived there. I have many memories here, from childhood to more recent. It is my connection to my roots and my passion!

Qué hace que este alojamiento sea especial

My property is my oasis. I am in the middle of nature, in the middle of the city. Could it get any better? :)
