Real gem in the heart of Sarasota

My family of 5 stayed in this absolutely beautiful home over the Thanksgiving week and we loved everything about this gem of a house. This is historic home that has been beautifully remodeled with high end finishes. Master bed was super comfortable, kitchen comes with everything you'll need for quick meal, and everything was clean and ready for us when we arrived. Location is perfect, as it's in the historic Burns artsy neighborhood, few steps away from Owen's Fish Camp restaurant, and multiple other restaurants and shops. We loved going on a walks around the neighborhood, and also since they just fixed up bayfront park by Marina Jack's, it's only about 10 minute walk there. If the restaurants next to the house get old, it's only 10 minutes to Sarasota's Main Street shopping and restaurants area. Host was super quick to respond and very accommodating. I definitely plan on coming back to this place in the future.
