A Wonderful Stay
We had a wonderful stay here when we visited for spring training. The house was clean and accurate to the listing. The small things made the stay nice: nice toiletries in bathroom, a smart TV, coffee pods and an easy to use lock

Cute and quaint
Everything we needed. Owners reached out in advance and had a welcome gift for us too. House is at end of street. Inside is nicer than outside but definitely would stay here again for a quick trip to Sarasota. We couldn’t figure out how to turn on ceiling fans so they sent a nice tower fan to keep us comfortable.

Great Getaway
This home has everything you need for a great getaway. The location is close to restaurants and a quick drive to the beach. We enjoyed the nice bathrooms, fully stocked kitchen, and the access to hundreds of movies for our after dinner movie nights. The hosts are very prompt and very helpful.

An escape indeed
Needed a place that was close to my mom’s place in Sarasota and this place delivered in a big way. Trish and Craig are incredibly friendly, responsive, and accommodating, notably helping make a very late in completely painless and even offering to assist me with a completely unrelated task I had to take care of in the area. There was a gift for me upon arrival, a wonderfully stocked kitchen, and the entire place was clean and comfy. I’ll be back!

Amazing Little Oasis
First of all Trish & Craig are wonderful, responded quickly to every question and were very easy to work with when asking for an extra day.
When you walk in the place it is beautiful and you feel like you are in a beautiful oasis trimmed in tropical decor. Every inch is meticulously thought of and decorated to feel as if you are in a beach cottage from the inside to the outside. The back screened in lani is welcoming and your able to eat your meals in peace from the mosquitoes on the cute table that's set up with tropical dishes.
I had 3 adults, 1 teen, 3 kitties & 1 chihuahua plenty of room and the owners were fine with having three kitties (which Is soo hard to find) thank you so much for that.
We were literally 4-6 minutes from Siesta Key a beautiful beach! Close to grocery stores and plenty of restaurants to choose from.
Do not pass on this little oasis, you will only regret that you didn't stay!
