City Cottage | Heated Cocktail Pool, Tiki Bar & Walk to City of Sarasota

🌴 City Cottage - Cocktail Pool + Walk to Downtown

đź’– Why You'll Love This Home
Step back in time—without sacrificing comfort. City Cottage blends 1920s charm with upscale, modern updates, including a heated cocktail pool, clawfoot soaking tub, and tiki bar, all nestled in a walkable downtown Sarasota location.

👨‍👩‍👧 Perfect For
Couples, small families, or friend groups looking for a stylish, walk-to-everything Sarasota escape with vintage flair.

🎞️ Imagine This
You arrive at City Cottage and step through the front door into a storybook bungalow—9-foot ceilings, crown molding, and soft natural light pouring in through oversized windows. Drop your bags, kick off your shoes, and feel the easy rhythm of Old Florida take over. Morning starts with coffee on the front porch, birdsong in the background. Afternoons unfold with dips in the heated cocktail pool, sun-soaked lounging, or a mid-day refresh under the Al Fresco shower. As evening falls, mix a drink at your private tiki bar before heading downtown for a sunset dinner. End your day soaking in the clawfoot tub, wrapped in nostalgia and peace.

This was an excellent property which I would highly recommend. The house is compact, but perfectly spacious for a family. The property has three bedrooms and could easily sleep up to 8 people. The outdoor space is spacious and inviting. The dipping pool was a very nice addition. We thoroughly enjoyed it at the end of a long day out and about.The house is conveniently located to downtown which is about a 5-10 minute walk. Our teenage children appreciated the ability to be independent and head out on their own. Beaches were easily accessible at a 15-25 minute drive depending on which beach.The house manager was incredibly helpful and responsive when we had questions or needs.The only thing that would have made the house better would be if it had beach chairs that could be borrowed. Otherwise, it was a perfect find. I would definitely stay here again.
