Cozy and Relaxing

Ranger Rick provided a warm and inviting home in a great neighborhood. We were greeted with a basket full of goodies, plenty of linens and pool / beach toys! We spent a good part of our time relaxing by the pool, and it's very quiet there!

Serious, I know the house is about 25 min away from the beach, but is worth. Super clean, easy communication, and the owner ia always ready to help. The house is spacious, and make you feel like home. So hope to be there again next summer.

Beautiful home with everything you need

We absolutely loved our stay! The house was perfect for our family of four, although there was room for more. The house was impeccably clean and well-organized with everything you'd need to cook, grill, swim, and go to the beach. The neighborhood was quiet and well cared for, and even great for running with very little traffic.

Wonderful Vacation Home

Rick and his team keep the house incredibly clean and the pool and pool area are well maintained. He provided a wonderful basket of goodies along with a helpful binder of information listing restaurants and things to do in the Sarasota area. The restaurant recommendations were great. After our stay, Rick discovered that we left some clothing behind, and he was kind enough to mail it to us. Palm Aire is a very quiet and peaceful development that is very biking/walking/running friendly and very close to lots of restaurants and grocery stores. We will stay with Rick again when we visit beautiful Sarasota.

Lovely Sarasota

Our family stayed here for a week and it was perfect! Host was helpful with any questions we had, and provided a welcome basket and helpful tips for the area. The house was perfectly clean and well equipped. We had 3 adults and 4 kids ages 9-17. Plenty of room and close to shopping and restaurants! The pool was a great hit as well! We even left a few things and the host notified us and is shipping them. Can’t wait for our next stay!

Great Stay

Check in process was flawless. Very clean, beautiful house, was even better in person than it was in the pictures. Pool was amazing. Kitchen is fully stocked as if you were at home. They keep lots of family games in the closet for you to use. Lots of beach/pool things to use as well. We didn’t run into any problems so we did not contact the owners but they did send a message saying if we did need anything to let them know. Definitely a 10 out of 10. Would recommend and will book again in the future if its available.

Fantastic Experience!

When we opened the front door, we knew it was going to be a good week! The first view was the sitting area and the pool beyond that. The pictures on the site did not do it justice - the house was more spacious than expected and everything was neat and clean. Easy commute to anything in the Sarasota area. Would highly recommend.

Best Ever!

This home was beyond our expectations. The layout was spacious along with the beautiful pool made us want to stay put. Fully stocked with anything you may need especially if you like to entertain. Location was great with an array of so many stores, restaurants, parks, beaches all within a short drive. In addition, many places to venture out if you like day tripping. However, what really made this vacation special were the hosts, Rick and Doris who welcomed us with their warm hospitality. A return trip is a definite.

Anniversary getaway and golf

This by far was one of the best stocked houses I’ve ever stayed in. They had everything you needed to feel like you were at home and never want to leave. The master bed (only one we slept on) was so nice, that can always be dicey with anywhere you stay but here you don’t need to worry. The home it’s self was so warm and inviting. The pool and outdoor seating area was great we spent so much time poolside. My husband and I love the area you couldn’t go wrong staying here. Ranger Rick was great to work with and was available if anything was needed. We will for sure be back!!!
