Verlaine was a great host and her property was exactly like the pictures. She has my kind of taste and the apartment had everything you would need and more! She must be an interior designer as everything was so well put together and just so quaint! The neighborhood is very quiet and easy to navigate around. Siesta Key is a 15 minute drive from her property. Her green thumb is quite impressive as well! So many beautiful plantings and flowers. We will be back!

While the space was adorable and clean it was not what we were expecting. The apartment is attached to a private home and the hot tub, which we were looking forward to, is part of the private home in an attached sunroom. You can see directly into the owner's home. At the time we arrived, the owner was having a party, making use of the hot tub impossible unless we chose to use it while strangers were able to view us. Because of the get together at the home, we were also not able to park in the designated parking space provided. In the end, we ended up having to find someplace else to stay and requested a full refund.

Bathroom big enough for two to get ready. Everything you need out of a small space to enjoy a vacation. Very welcoming and homey feel to it.

This is a lovely unit. Clean and comfortable and nicely decorated. The hosts were friendly and available. We didn't get a chance to use the hot tub; but maybe we will the next time we go to Sarasota, because we would be happy to stay here again. Very close to Pinecraft and the Amish restaurants in Sarasota. We didn't cook while we were there but the appliances were up to date and the laundry is right off the bedroom. Much nicer than a motel.

This cozy little place was perfect for my sister and me. Beautifully well thought out. We cooked in quite a bit, and had all the pots, pans and utensils we needed. The only minor thing was that the outdoor patio space was not as usable as we had hoped. Not a deal-breaker. We’ll be back. Loved this place!

We LOVED our stay here. Our stay was short but this place is adorable and so welcoming. We booked it so myself and my bridesmaids could get ready for our wedding and then myself and hubby stayed our wedding night. The backyard is amazing!!! The interior is the cutest little place ever. Very clean. The owners are awesome! Communication was great and they really made sure we had everything we needed. I was so appreciative when I asked to borrow some umbrellas and they were so quick to let us borrow. 10/10 recommend and we would stay here again in a heart beat.

From the clear directions, our late arrival that greeted us with grace to waking to the cooing of birds on this beautiful property that Verlaine, master Gardner , has cultivated.
