Perfect house for our family! We had everything we needed for beach days and to make our meals on the days we ate at home. Great location - five minutes to Trader Joe's and Publix, very close to Siesta Beach and Lido Beach. Christine was available to answer any questions and made sure we had everything we needed. We would stay again if we come back to Sarasota.

The pineapple house lived up to our expectations . A five star vacation. Christine was a text away for any questions. The home is well kept, kitchen has lots of spices and extra amenities in the cupboards. The oool,hot tub, and backyard made the vacation as we spent most of our time outside. Our dog had plenty of space to get her exercise. Close to everything with a car.We would love to come back another time.

Wonderful family vacation spot! The pool was a hit with our graddaughters and offered the perfect amount of shade and sun. The patio umbrellas were a huge help. The house had plenty of room for our group of 5 baby. Christine made travel easy complete with pak'nplay and booster seat. Great kitchen, fully equipped with everything we needed for stay-in meals. The distance to the beach wasn't bad, but go early to find parking and a good beach spot. The location was ideal - close to groceries, restaurants and airport. Don't miss taking the trail adjacent to the house to Rendezvous French Bakery! Almond croissants to die for!Christine was a fabulous host, answering questions promptly and very helpful. The place was extremely clean too! A few of the outdoor furniture pieces were tired but understandable with the Florida sun.Great family vacation! Thanks!

This house has it all! We booked on a last minute change of plans and are so glad we picked this house. The home comes with everything you need, whether it’s a pool day or going to the beach, you are well covered with towels, chairs, and more. There are ample kitchen supplies, too. The backyard is truly beautiful with the pool, hot tub, fire pit and grills. Location is great, with walking to a lot of restaurants and short trip to the beach. Christine was an incredible host and cannot recommend this place enough!

Four of us — two couples — had a wonderful ten days at Pineapple House. The house was quiet and comfortable, and the backyard pool and hot tub area was an oasis. The owner was instantly responsive when we had questions or problems. She said she wanted us to have a perfect vacation, and she succeeded.

The house, property, pool and all the extras were awesome. Christine was very helpful and responsive when we needed something. Lots of extras for our family to use and enjoy. However we had thought we could walk to the beach when we booked the place, but no worries. It's only an 8 minute drive or ride on trolley. We definitely recommend and maybe we'll visit again...

Family of four (mom/dad7yo2yo) Host is amazing! Accommodated our request for an early check in to get us into the home in time for the toddler to take a nap! Home was clean, access (key code) was easy peasy and the kitchen well stocked. There was even those “oh we forgot” bathroom items which came in handy. We used all the beach essentials and loved that we didn’t have to mess with renting anything. Owner was receptive to input and was communicative without being overkill. She touched base to ensure all was well but didn’t really bug us with anything unless prompted. Check out was a breeze.We loved the quiet neighborhood vibe, walking path, nearby Aldi and great restaurants within walking distance (Baker Wife). Even tough out next adventure will take us somewhere else, we’d stay here again in a breeze! Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at the pineapple house. It was clean and well equipped with anything we needed. The location is great to go to Siesta Key, Lido beach and UTC. The pool was a hit with my daughter and having pool floats and toys was a huge help. The hot tub was great to relax in at night when it got a little cooler. We hope to make a return visit sooner than later. Christine is a great host with superb communication.

The house was lovely and perfect location for what we needed which was to explore the nearby beaches . It was exactly as described and lots of things available to use . The only issue we had were we arrived on Sunday and the pool was really dirty and not cleaned until the Tuesday, but once it was cleaned it was good. Bins outside in the garden were not collected until following Friday , they were full when we arrived and the smell was really bad, they were infested with maggots and flies . Under the beds was not clean and there were items of clothing left from previous occupants in drawers .We had an issue with the app and therefore could not contact the host . I tried the phone number supplied on a number of occasions but no reply . I also contacted VRBO and asked for them to forward messages on, and contact the host on our behalf to let them know we were struggling to read messages or communicate. They passed on the emails which had been sent, but would not contact the host on our behalf and give them alternative contact details. This was disappointing .
