Clean, quiet and relaxing

We were looking for a retreat from tournament play at IMG and Premier Sports. This place was a perfect choice for unwinding after busy days. It’s centrally located to beautiful beaches, grocery, Starbucks and UTC shopping. The house was clean, linens were stocked, the pool was lovely, and there was ample space for relaxing. Would rent again.

We had a great time for our family of 6, this home couldn’t be better. Whatever you may need is going to be there for you. We fall in love with the view at the backyard from the pool , you can relax. House was implacable, very clean and organized. You have all the gear needed in the garage to go to the beach. Wish we could stay longer and enjoy this paradise for a little while.

Great Family Gathering

This home was booked so that we can come together and have a family gathering. I have families that came in from out of state as well as family that live right here in Sarasota the house was perfect. It was spacious enough. The pool area was delightful for the adults and the children, the scenery was absolutely beautiful and peaceful and we had no issues from the neighbors at all. Everything was perfect! I would definitely suggest renting this house for great family, gatherings, and fun times! The only issue I had was at the initial check-in. The front door code did not work for me so we had to use the garage To enter for the duration of our stay. A did send a message through VRBO to the person representing the house manager, whoever that the code was not working and no one got back to me, but fortunately the garage code was working so we was able to gain access to the house that way, and all was well. Again, great house great atmosphere plenty of space, fully equipped with everything that you may need very clean And very well decor. I’ll give this house a nine out of 10! Family Fun

The Mildew Smell In The Garage

We refused to stay here even one night. When I spoke to the owner, she, of course, thought I was a crackpot and even said, "You are only doing this to get out of it" Not knowing anything about your clients and insulting them showed me what type of company I was dealing with, along with subpar hosts and houses. I immediately went to your competition and booked a $4k stay with them with a receipt available on demand. The credit card company has been notified. We booked this stay because we are having mold remediation done at our house, and my son is dealing with a sinus infection, so I would not endanger my family's health. Everyone but this homeowner in Florida has been tested for mold or mildew at least once. They are in for a shock when their homeowners' insurance will require it very soon..
