Everything was so nice and absolutely immaculate! The host was very helpful and kind when we had to call her because we couldn’t figure out the lock (our fault, not the lock’s! lol.) We couldn’t have been happier! We were close to Siesta Key beach and restaurants. Overall 5 star experience! Thanks Larisa!

Fabulous

The home was clean and lovely. Easy access. Great tv and cable. Walking around neighborhood perfect. Close to stores and restaurants. The outdoor grill, deck and porch were very peaceful. It would have been nice to have lounge chairs that were in good, safe condition to sit in and we wished the pool was heated, but overall an amazing experience and wonderful vacation. Yes, we would highly recommend this home.

Short drive to the beach

This house was lovely and VERY SPACIOUS so it’s great if you’re traveling with a larger group. The pool is a good size and refreshing. You’re located just blocks away from shops, eateries, and two larger grocery stores. Only a 5 minute drive to Siesta Key beach which is exactly why we traveled here!! We did encounter a minor setback BUT the host was understanding and she was quick to respond to resolve any issues and she’s very kind!! I travel to this area a few times a year and I would gladly return to stay at this property as well as recommend to friends and family!

Absolutely wonderful - everything I had dreamed it would be

The house was wonderful, but it was the backyard pool that set this apart. The pool just “invited” me in every day. It was clean and refreshing, somewhere around 80 to 85 degrees. The house was in a cute neighborhood with easy access to Tamiami Trail. Local stores and restaurants were great. We even tried some new ones. Plenty of room in the house for four adults without feeling like you were on top of each other. The property manager quickly answered any questions we had. I will be going back again. Great memories of a splendid vacation.

Hi, this pool DOES NOT have a heater. the pool is open caged, so if there's wind, there will be leaves. The pool tech cleans out what he can, he does not necessarily need to vacuum it each time

Gulf gate rental

I assumed pool would be heated after paying 12,000 for 27 days but it wasn’t. That’s what was disappointing. Also the living room furniture was not very good. I don’t mean to be disrespectful I’m just giving my opinion. Obviously I’m not very good at booking.

Location and pool were great but the mosquitoes were bad every night. The bathrooms need updated a lot of leaks bad flushing toilet and no water pressure.

My friends and I have rented from this property owner multiple times. This home could use a little TLC but it didn’t stop us from having fun ! Trash was left from previous renters but owner took care of it very quickly . If you are looking for a quiet home that is close to the beach this is it .

Did not meet expectation

First when we rented this property it was advertised as pool being 82-86 degrees, that posting was taken down after we rented. It wasn’t a heated pool as expected and we weren’t notified that posting was in error. Pool area was also not as pictured, canopy area contained moldy filthy white leather sofa. Pool area not very clean, old screens, pool filters discarded. Though pool water was clean and clear. Trash cans full, switch day is Sat and trash is Wed so people leaving fill up trash cans. House was ok and clean, needs updating though especially old couch in living room. Needs TLC. Agent was attentive but not effective. We didn’t share the experience of other positive reviews.

Nice family place

This place is nice for a family and their pets. Nice size and has good kitchen for cooking and nice table for eating. Nice beach items. Pool nice if hot weather. No heater which was needed in Feb. Fence around back yard needs repair lots of make shift items holding it up, plus yard had all kinds of metal pieces we found. Like bolts and screws laying in grass. Need to store pool toys somewhere. Looks trashy out. White couch outside was not for outdoor use. It had black mildew on it and we had to wash it down before using. Needs lights in the bedroom ceilings and fans. Fans would cut down on AC use. Plus screens on windows would be nice to cut down on AC use. Several just piled in corner in back yard. Garage door did not work and manager tried her best to get it fixed. Plus plumbing needs redone in garage. Used PVC pipes for outgoing source of water. That is not code. Should be copper. Showers had no pressure at all but guess that is all of Florida code to reduce water usage! Manager was very helpful and very fast to respond. She did her job and had resources fast. House just needs attention by owner. Needs a front yard landscape job. Trim the shrubs and mulch and shape up the front for more curb appeal. Also move trash can to back in an enclosed place to improve curb appeal.

About the host

Hosted by Larisa Trexler

Host profile image
Hi! I’m Larisa 😊
Originally from Moldova, I’ve called Sarasota home since 1995. I’m a local realtor who absolutely loves this area — the beaches, sunsets, theater, dancing, and of course our beautiful Florida sunshine 🌴

Hosting gives me the chance to share a little piece of the lifestyle I love so much. I truly enjoy helping guests relax, unwind, and experience Sarasota like a local. Whether you're here for Siesta Key, great dining, or just some peaceful beach time, I’m happy to host you and give you space to enjoy it all — while always being just a call or text away if you need anything.

Hope to welcome you soon!

Why they chose this property

Why You’ll Love the Gulf Gate Neighborhood
The Gateway to Siesta Key
Gulf Gate is famous for being the "gateway" to the world-renowned white sands of Siesta Key Beach. You are just a quick 5-minute drive (or a breezy bike ride) over the bridge to the shoreline, allowing you to beat the beach traffic while staying in a peaceful, private community.
One of the rarest features in Sarasota is walkability, and Gulf Gate has it. The "Gulf Gate Village" is a charming collection of several blocks packed with:
Diverse Dining: Everything from authentic Italian and gourmet sushi to the best tacos and delis in town.
Local Nightlife: Cozy pubs, craft beer taprooms, and late-night spots that give the neighborhood a fun, energetic soul.
Boutique Shopping: Quirky gift shops, vintage finds, and local bakeries are all right around the corner.
You don’t have to travel far for the essentials. You are walking distance or a 2-minute drive to Sarasota Square Mall, Publix, Costco, and a variety of fitness centers. Whether you’re looking for a formal dinner or a quick grocery run, everything is within a mile of your front door.
While the village is vibrant and "happening," the streets where the homes sit (like yours!) are incredibly quiet, safe, and family-friendly. It’s a neighborhood where people walk their dogs and wave to neighbors—a true slice of the "Old Florida" lifestyle with a modern, trendy twist.

What makes this property unique

Large Pool, Fenced Backyard. Close to Gulf Gate Village.
