Great Sarasota Location
We stayed at this property for 11 days and absolutely loved it. We will for sure stay again soon. Location was wonderful and convenient, and the property was very secure with gated entrance and your own numbered covered parking. The property was clean and well equipped with everything you need. The only thing it did not have were chairs to take to the beach but we purchased them and left them for the next renters to enjoy.

Amazing and fully stocked Condo
This is definitely a high end condo and it shows in the finishes and attention to detail. The kitchen was well stocked with all your cooking and dining needs. The condo also had plenty of beach towels, several beach bags and even a cooler pack for the beach or pool. Parking spot was conveniently located near the elevator. Easy access to all that downtown Sarasota has to offer and a short drive over the Causeway to St. Armands. Views of the marina from the balcony are beautiful both in the morning and after dark.

Next time we hope to stay longer!
We typically stay in the Sarasota area for 4-6 weeks. Circumstances prevented that this year but somewhat last minute we squeezed in a week's stay. This condo was perfect - it was extremely clean, very nicely decorated, all the amenities we wanted and needed. The location was great for access downtown, St Armand's Circle, and the beach (though the red tide was early this year so we didn't spend a lot of time on the beach.) The pool, hot tub and workout room were terrific. The condo is extremely well stocked and has a lovely outdoor space overlooking the canal that presented a nice view. The entire property is very clean and well maintained. Check in and check out was easy! We will stay again!

Great location, nice new place.
Our one week stay went entirely too fast! Only negative was that the TV was streaming only. We figured out (on our own, there were no instructions on how to get network TV) how to subscribe to a service in order to watch the Super Bowl.
