I feel so fortunate that we found this sweet little house perched on the edge of Little Sarasota Bay, looking across water to the east side of Siesta Key for a 3 week stay this January.... I came down to rehab a broken leg, and this was the perfect choice. One level living (one step down to the pool) and open house plan, easy to navigate and take care of. Hot tub and pool were a highlight, as was the dock that affords great sunset and pelican viewing. The location is south of Sarasota center about 10 minute drive, and only a 5 minute drive to Siesta Key. A Farmer's Market on Wednesdays is nearby for stocking up on fresh veggies, fish, fruit, and much more! Sarasota has so much to offer for visitors; restaurants are excellent, there are sailing and fishing options, kayaking, museums, cultural events, the list goes on....we were pleasantly surprised. Debbie and Don were very attentive to any needs and everything went smoothly. We highly recommend this little slice of heaven!
