The stay was beautiful the pool was clean and beautiful .. there was so much space no one was ever in the way. The neighborhood was beautiful and played back this is a must stay if you are looking to be near all the fun and beaches !!
Clean and spacious home in a quiet area that was really close to plenty of stuff to do. Hosts were super accomodating and cared that we enjoyed our stay. Would definitely return.

Thank you Krystle for your review and we would be honored to host you again!
The house perfectly fit our needs. It was large with plenty of room for sleeping, relaxing, or visiting. The outdoor patio/ lanai area provided both shade and sun and the pool was a definite plus. Lots of toys, books, and games to keep kids busy. Location was close to the venue and downtown.
This was the best vacation rental ever. Everyone loved the house. Was in a great neighborhood. There was plenty of rooms and beds. Very spacious, homey and comfortable. This VRBO supplies just about everything you would need, just bring food. They even have plenty of pots and pans for cooking, all the utensils needed. We were so surprised at everything that was available to use. Even tons of games, beach chairs and umbrellas. The hosts were great, they checked in to see if we should need anything, they even offered tecommendations for things to do. Would 100% recommend and stay at this rental again. Was totally worth every cent.
We chose this property because of it’s location for our family trip. Half of us had tickets for the Rays which was an easy drive and the other half had a wonderful selection of beaches.
Property was comfortable and we enjoyed the poolside dining as well as lots of card playing in the dining room.
Would stay again.

Thank you Kavita for your feedback. If there was anything that could have made your stay more comfortable, please let us know and we will make sure to get it taken care of. We hope to welcome you back in the future!
Nice spacious house not far from everything we wanted.
A big and well kept house. Extremely capable and pleasant management. Excellent location if you want to enjoy cultural life of Sarasota but not to stay in the busiest and less safe downtown areas. Not close to beaches, but this is not what we were after.

Thank you for your review and being wonderful guests! We look forward to hosting you again soon.
This house is much bigger than it appears in the pictures! It fit our big family very well. The bathrooms and kitchen could use some upgrades, but nonetheless we enjoyed our stay. The pool deck area was beautiful and very large!

Thank you Klara for taking the time to review! We are very glad to hear you enjoyed your stay, especially the pool lounge area!
Overall we were all pleased with the house. One suggestion. Everyone said that the pillows were flat and uncomfortable.
Also, one of the sprinkler heads in the front yard was broken and the water sprayed directly onto the front door.
Thank you again for allowing us to stay in your lovely home.

Thank you Joseph for your review and we have made sure to get new pillows and made sure the sprinkler was fixed as soon as we learned of it.
House was as advertised, spacious rooms, clean, plenty of room and excellent layout. Pool was clean and perfect temperature. Amazing to have a screened area to relax with bbq, tables and tv inside and outside.
A true retreat.
Only things I wish were different were trivial: Wish there was a four slot toaster lol, difficult for breakfast with 8 people.
Secondly, ad does not mention the loud plane noise overhead. This only occurs during the day, so not bothersome for sleeping.

Thank you Cori for your review and feedback. Unfortunately with the flight patterns there can be some noise from the nearby airport activity. We will also be replacing the toaster with a larger one per your recommendation. Glad you had a great stay and it would be our pleasure to host you again!
The thing I loved most about this home was the layout of the house. Most of the bedrooms were far away from each other allowing some good quiet time. The property was clean and nice. The pool space added an entirely new dimension and living area for us to hang out in. The kitchen had everything we needed. Communication with the property owner was efficient and in a timely manner. Little things that could have been better include: a broken shower head in one of the master bedrooms that didn't work and low water pressure with the showers and maintaining the appearance of the lawn in the front and back yard. Again, not really things that ruined the experience, just things that could be better next time we visit. Overall, it was a lot of fun and worth it.

Thank you William for your feedback! We are so glad that you enjoyed the home, especially the lounge area out back. We have fixed all the shower heads after your review and made sure water pressure is working as it should and are working with a landscaping company to update the yard to make it a more tropical escape.
Lovely home, spacious and clean. Very enjoyable stay.

A good house with plenty of room and relaxing outdoor space
The house is very nice, spacious and well appointed. Bedrooms were as advertised. Good layout provides for multiple couples having their own space. I DO RECOMMEND this property, but will point out a couple of challenges below.
The property, despite being in a residential neighborhood, is on a street that passes through between two substantial roads, and is busy, with faster-than-should-be traffic. This is loud in the early morning hours.
While the host was very responsive, I did have to ask for check-in information. After that, check-in was easy and the electronic lock was easy to operate.
One of the sliding doors to the pool area would not lock. So the house was unlocked the whole time we were there. This is a substantial security issue that I don't expect in a rented home. Also, upon arrival, there were 6 or 7 windows unlocked, and another sliding door to the pool area unlocked. This did not inspire confidence in the security of the property.
While the bathrooms were generally fine, the shower faucet knob in the hallway bath was broken. Thankfully we were able to repair it ourselves using a kitchen utensil. It would be useful to have a couple basic tools in the house.
Early Monday morning, the pool guy came in the pool area, unannounced, without knocking, while we were in the area eating breakfast. This was unacceptable.

Thank you Greg for your thorough feedback! We are glad you enjoyed your stay and the home. We will make sure checking instructions are easily accessible, leave a few basic tools to use just in case, and update home information with the pool service schedule. We will also advise our housekeeping to make sure all windows and doors are locked when they leave. We do want each of our guests to enjoy their time at our home as much as possible and appreciate any feedback. We would love to welcome you back if you are ever in Sarasota and offer a returning guest discount.
