Fully stocked house for short-term renters with linens, shampoo, conditioner, soap, laundry detergent, paper goods, and starter coffee/tea/creamers. Bring your clothes and toothbrush only!

Beautiful place!

This place is amazing for a relaxing getaway! The backyard is stunning and great place to sit and have cup of coffee in the morning. The property is also short distance from amazing restaurants that the host recommended. Definitely would come here again!

Fabulous!

Mike is a great host and very responsive. His place was exceptionally clean and well equipped with everything you would need to have a great stay! The back yard is lovely with beautiful vegetation and landscaping. There are many areas to sit in both sun and shade. Mike’s recommendations of restaurants and things to do were excellent! Great stay!

This is a turn-key VRBO furnished home. Everything is just perfect and ready for your Sarasota visit. Beach Chairs and Towels, Yoga Mats, and so much more...

Why they chose this property

I plan on retiring to this home in the next few years and take tremendous pride in this quiet, cozy, relaxing home.

Imagine you are up in the morning sitting on big comfortable chairs under a gazebo, drinking your coffee or tea. Since the wifi is out there, you might also be catching up on some emails. You cannot help but notice all the flowers and native plants surrounding you, and since you are sitting 30 feet away from the Whitaker Bayou, you notice fish splashing in the canal. You quickly realize you are in Florida when you see all the tropical birds walking. No, this is not a hotel but a little piece of paradise.

Welcome to the Fishimeran Cottage!
