The design maximizes indoor/outdoor spaces and makes the house very light and airy for maximum relaxation. Enjoy the charming private front porch area for relaxing on cool evenings. The home is just 2 doors down from the historic Gillespie Park, a 10-acre oasis featuring 3 public tennis courts, basketball courts, fitness trail/fitness stations, large playground, beautiful duck pond and leash free dog park. The exterior of the home is surrounded by lush tropical palm trees. There is plenty of parking with room for 1 car in the garage, two cars in driveway, parking in the front, and plenty more parking 2 doors down at Gillespie park. The location and amenities are unmatched, and undoubtedly the best value in the neighborhood just seconds from downtown Sarasota proper, the historic district, restaurants, shopping, theaters, and the Bay front. Walking distance to the Rosemary district, The Sarasota Opera house, Wholefoods, Starbucks and convenience stores. Other nearby attractions include The Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, The Mote Aquarium, The Big Cat Habitat & Sanctuary, The Marietta Museum of Art & Whimsy, and Saint Armand’s Circle. Siesta Key Beach, rated the #1 Beach in the USA, is just a quick 20 minutes away. If exploration is more your style, then take a 2-hour kayak tour through the mangroves or take one of the bikes at the house for the day and take to the streets. If Art gives you happiness then visit The Ringling Museum, where you can feast your eyes on a staggering 21 European painting galleries, as well as rare antiquities from Asia, Americas and Cyprus. If you like exotic animals, then take yourself over to the Sarasota Jungle Gardens, where you can spend your time surrounded by over 150 different critters of all shapes and colors. For the foodies out there, head to one of the countless restaurants, where you can tantalize your taste buds with mouthwatering cuisines from around the world – including French, Caribbean, Italian, Thai, Vietnamese, Spanish, Mexican, Colombian, Peruvian, Chinese, and of course American. Any trip to Sarasota must include a visit to Siesta Key. One of America’s most famous beaches, the Key boasts gorgeous quartz sand, stunningly clear and a charming village formed of beautiful bungalows, renowned restaurants and fabulous shops. If you’re after a quiet time, then why not wade in the crystal waters of the Gulf, or charter a fishing boat for the day? If quiet time is the last thing on your mind, then why not feed your inner daredevil – Jet-skiing, windsurfing, paddle boarding or parasailing are just some of the things you can do to get the heart racing. Whatever mood you’re in, Siesta Key and Sarasota are bound to have something for you. Or if you want to visit the surrounding areas, then jump in the car and take the short drive to Orlando or Tampa, where you can visit the iconic Disney World, Epcot Center, Islands of Adventure, and SeaWorld, or Busch Gardens and the Florida aquarium. You’ll be guaranteed to leave with a camera full of wonderful memories and a bag full of souvenirs. Whatever holiday break you are looking for, this home has all the ingredients to provide a wonderful, memorable holiday experience.

Return customers!
We now consider this property our "home away from home" in Florida. Gerard is the best host one could ask for...highly responsive and friendly! The property is clean, well provisioned, and an easy walk to downtown Sarasota. We personally love adjacent Gillespie Park-playground for the grandkids, tennis/pickleball courts, and an easy ½ mile walking loop. Can't wait to return next March!

Oasis in a neighborhood close to everything
This house was amazing. Absolutely beautiful with a fantastic open, yet private courtyard area with a pool and a jacuzzi, and sauna in the garage. Great, tasteful, modern remodel. The master bath was incredible. Clear instructions for check-in and check-out, owner kindly extended my check-out time. This might be the nicest place I've ever rented.

Beautiful house!
The house is as listed. Beautiful, clean, comfortable. It has everything you can need. Fully equipped kitchen. Plenty of sheets and blankets. Nice neighborhood, beach is 5 min drive. My only suggestion is to put couple of rugs on the entrance from the pool so the floor does not get too wet. This is the perfect vacation house :)

Wonderful
Wonderful home, wonderful location, wonderful amenities! Loved the close proximity to downtown restaurants, the waterfront and accessibility to Siesta Key beach and Longboat Key. We went kayaking, strolled the streets, took a captained boat trip, visited the aquarium, ate out, ate in and enjoyed time in the fantastic enclosed pool area! Truly a wonderful vacation!
