Why they chose this property
I bought this home when my children were young, to ensure a safe upbringing in a beautiful and convenient area of Sarasota.
What makes this property unique
Fortunately we've become a destination for people all over the world. Noted in the news as "The Most Wish-Listed" listing in Sarasota County (2018, ArBnb). During a few events, I've been asked the if the property was a local park. Rest and relaxation, yet convenient to so much of Sarasota. We've hosted 1-night travelers, snow birds, Couples, and Families. Our Tropical Escape has become popular for events too: weddings, retreats, quinceañeras, corporate trainings, reunions, and more. Come see for yourselves - enjoy the difference! We truly are a Tropical Escape.
