Rough around the edges

Pool was not clean when we arrived and had broken tiles. House needs a deep clean. There were cob webs in windows and dried food on cabinets that we wiped down when we arrived. Couch has a smell to it and needs to be replaced. Rugs are dirty and matted. They also need to be replaced. The kitchen is updated and well stocked with pots, pans, utensils, and etc. The beds were clean and comfortable.

Amazing month in an amazing house

The pictures accurately depict the house. The master bedroom is very large with the most comfortable bed ever! Large jetted tub in the master bath. The queen master is off the kitchen with a large walk in closet and attached bath, 2 other bedrooms on opposite sides of the home. 2 living areas were great for privacy. 4 doors to the backyard. Great pool, canal is amazing. We caught fish everyday. Birds hang around the yard, they are fun to watch. Beautiful sun rises in the backyard. Washer and dryer in the clean garage. Lots of beach chairs, pool rafts in the garage. There was a large table in one of the bedrooms that my son used as a desk. I used an extra patio table for my desk. Internet works great. If you walk out the front door the bay is to your left and the beach is to your right 0.2 miles. You can walk to a plaza with a Walgreens, Dunkin Donut, bagel shop, subway, bike and kayak rental, much more. This location is perfect! Great house on a super island. The house was clean, lots of extra linens, pillows and blankets. The island is full of friendly people and great restaurants. We loved Shore, Sandbar, Riverhouse, Dry Dock and Swordfish. If you want to cook There is a fully stocked kitchen and grill. My only complaint is no garbage disposal. Recommend go to the Sarasota and/orCoquina Beach markets. Loved Holy cow ice cream, great owners! I will definitely return and rent the house again.

We caught several different fish from the dock. We saw dolphins and manatees in the canal and the kids enjoyed the pool and it's a short walk to the ocean

Southern Comfort more than comfortable!

Our family loved this home! It’s perfect for extended family. We had 6 adults and 1 child; and two small dogs. Plenty of room to spread out, and plenty of spaces to be together. The location was amazing: on the canal and 3 blocks from the beach. We fished off the dock and caught several different types of fish (and put them back again); saw manatees and a dolphin swim by while we were swimming in the pool. The outdoor space was great for us. Our only problems were with the property management company: all the garbage cans were full and had maggots crawling in and around them in the driveway, no gas in the grill (both tanks were empty and we had to go buy gas), and we had no TV and no internet for two days. It poured rain those two days and we emailed and left messages on the non-emergency number, because the recording says: “TV and internet issues are not emergencies”. Keep in mind, we had a 5 year old and a 77 year old with no way to entertain either! This was the first two days of our vacation, so that kind of put a damper on things from the get-go. Still, the house and location are great, I just will think twice about renting it again because we couldn’t reach anyone with the rental office ☹️
