Our first family vacation to Sarasota was perfect - in part due to this outstanding vacation home. It was perfect in every way! The home was immaculate and included all of the necessities - a well stocked kitchen, comfy beds, extra linens, beach towels and beach chairs, TV, internet and so much more. Similarly, the grounds of the villa were pristine. The pool is large and perfectly heated. The hot tub was fantastic and tons of deck chairs meant relaxing with a good book in the Florida sun was a total treat! The rental location couldn't be more ideal - it is close to all the beaches and especially the incredible Siesta Key beach. My two teens loved the quieter Turtle Beach as much as the beautiful, white sands of Siesta Key! We brought our bikes and from the rental, we could easily bike to the mall, the cinema, grocery, Costco, local restaurants, and we had a blast on every adventure. In our first ever road trip our family drove 30 hours one way, from Northern Ontario, Canada and took a leap of faith that this rental would make for a special ten-day Christmas getaway for our family of four and without question, the vacation home exceeded our expectations. Also, the property manager was on call for any minor questions that came up. She was prompt, reliable and made our experience worry free! We'd highly recommend this rental. The only problem we had .... was leaving! We wanted to stay another 10 days! We'll happily return to this lovely villa!
