Great location.

Nice property. In central location with lots to do. About 10 mins. to the beach and downtown. Adequately provisioned. Would stay again as Sarasota is a fabulous town.Could use a lick of paint here and there and the grounds need attention which would enhance the quality of the outside stay. Generally I was happy with my choice.

House and location

House in excellent shape and location fine. Problem being on siesta drive getting out of the driveway since it is one of the few roads onto the key and therefore busy every day. Also wish that there was better outside space and lounge chairs for the patio. Inside all was fine - comfortable and clean.

Exactly as described. Incredibly close to anything you would want to do. Really nice property. Only con is the beds are a little thin feeling. Not the most comfortable but thats all i could ever see changing here. Overall is a must for any vacation!

Very nice beach house, I recommed it!

I would give it 5 stars without thinking because the house is located just in the right place, it is very cozy, nice, it has all the things you can think you will need while on vacation and maybe a little bit more, it is like feeling at home up to some point. The only negative thing and the reason I'm not giving a 5 stars is because when we arrived at the house we found a big pile of dirty towels and bed sheets on the garage, I'm sure it was not on purpose, but we needed to wash them because we were missing some towels. In general it is a great place and the owner is really friendly and answers you back really fast. I totally recommend it. Jimena Cardozo.

Comfortable and cozy.

My teenage daughter and I enjoyed our stay at Evona's house. It was in a location convenient to beautiful Siesta Key (a short drive over the North Bridge), and the interior looks like it has recently been updated. The beds were super comfy and it is a cute house. The only downside is that the furnishings are a little sparse in the living room area, and there were no pantry staples, so although we went to the grocery store to get provisions, we realized we didn't have things like salt and pepper or a small amount of olive oil, etc. for when we cooked. A little bit of attention to those kind of details would take this to a 5-star rating, as would the addition of some bikes to use. We had a rental car, but it would have been awesome to be able to bike over to Siesta Key, even if just on clunkers.

Solid unit. Near beach. Can be a much better unit though overall. A little more attention to details

This unit could be so much better. 1.Smoke alarms batteries needed replacement. Bought batteries and left them. 2.Outlet in living room only the top worked 3.Back porch leaked 4.Wet spot over twin bed close to window 5.Bath room fixtures were old and center price broken. Drain was rusted 6.Washer always out of balance no matter size of load 7.Property around the residence was not maintained at all. So much dead leaves. 8.Dining room furniture was ok 9.Ceiling fan in dining room missing a bulb. 10.Beach chairs broken and beach toys already filled with sand 11.Hole behind door in master bedroom 12.It was clean, some cobwebs on the fans and sand. 13.Tiles were chipped all over the unit. Use a little white out and blend it in covers that chip. 14.Close to the beach is a positive 15.Plenty of sheets and towels

Our Host Evona was most attentive to our needs and responded immediately, giving us a very peaceful time in Sarasota. We enjoyed walking through the neighbor hood and across the Siesta bridge. What a beautiful and healing time. The property is close to shopping and unique downtown shops.

Convenient to the Beach, Shopping, and Restaurants

You can't beat the convenience of being close to the beach, but also near the grocery, restaurants, and entertainment. The beach chairs and tent were an extra bonus that made our beach trips even more enjoyable. The screened porch was a nice place to read and drink coffee in the morning.

Our vacation in Sarasota was amazing! Staying at the Shoreland Woods property made everything even better. The location is ideal, close to the beach, downtown, dining, shopping centers, movie theater and I-75 (we were no more than 15 minutes drive from most location).
