Enjoyed everything about our stay. All amenities were great so many that usually are not included in a rental home. Our dog enjoyed the backyard and walks to the beach. The beach is so close we visited multiple times a day. Kitchen is fully stocked so we were able to even package up food in containers in our igloo. Everything was very clean, with beautiful calming colors. Will definitely return if we can even get it again. It’s always booked. Lastly, the host was very accommodating and responsive.

We had a great time in Sarasota; we met my wife's brother and his wife. We loved the location of the property; you could walk almost everywhere you needed to go. It was the most equipped VRBO property we have experienced. The property was excellent and well decorated with art. The host was awesome and very accommodating. We will definitely return; highly recommend.

We had an amazing stay again this year. We stayed for two weeks this time and the time just flew by everything in the house was beautiful. Everything we needed was there couldn’t ask for a better place to stay really close to the beach just one block away and also had a swimming pool next to the Lido Beach Pavilion, that was accessible Communication with the owners was fantastic. Couldn’t ask for anything better.

What a wonderful retreat

The home that our family got to share was wonderful. It was exactly as described on the VRBO page. The homeowner was always gracious and very quick to respond to my questions. It was the best vacation that we have ever had and cannot wait to go back again next year. The location was terrific, and it became our home away from home. Having coffee early in the morning on the front deck was especially memorable. Thank you so very much for sharing your home with us.

Short walk to beach or we could drive and park at the pool area and enjoy both beach and pool along with snack bar 😀 Can’t wait to return depending on moms health. She wants to stay longer next visit.

Perfect Everything!

We were in Sarasota for a Sprint Canoe competition at Nathan Benderson Park but wanted to be close to the beach. This was the perfect location. We had every amenity at our fingertips along with the comfort of a spacious beach house to accommodate my teen son and I. The hosts are amazingly wonderful and responsive. I hope to visit again soon!
