Great place
Wonderful oasis in back yard. Inside is clean, beautifully furnished and well stocked with anything and everything you could possibly need. This is our 2nd year renting there. Relaxing, convenient location. Love that Trader Joe’s is around the corner.
We used the pool and hot tub every day. It's a backyard oasis. The 2 outdoor sitting areas with TVs in the back were nice as well. The kitchen was well stocked and organized for any kind of cooking and the gas grill worked well. We enjoyed and used the coffee bar for relaxing mornings. Keep in mind that the 3rd bedroom is a walk-through path to the backyard, but at night at work fine as a bedroom. The decor was cute and the furniture nice and substantial. A great rental!.
The house was clean and inviting and we wanted to hang out more at the house than we wanted to be in Mammoth Cave, haha. It was a great place to have kids too! It was a lovely, relaxing stay!
I loved everything about it! You went above and beyond to make the house cozy, clean, beautiful and relaxing. There were plenty of dishes and extra supplies that were very much appreciated.
The Funky Fish House had everything we needed for our vacation. Kitchen supplies, extra bath and pool towels, beach umbrella and chairs, pool floaties, and more. Clean property with a great pool! Convenient location as well. Had a wonderful stay!

Everything you need is included
Warm and welcoming space, with all of the things you think to bring on vacation included. The backyard space is it’s own hangout, perfect for lazy pool days and grilling.
Our stay at the Funky Fish house was great. The heated outdoor pool and hot tub along with two big screens outside,made for an awesome time for a family of 6! The house had a beach vibe and was perfect for us! Would definitely stay here again!The hosts kept us well informed and let us check in early! One of our best stays ever!
This property was just as described in the listing. Very clean, comfortable furniture, sheets, towels. Beautifully decorated and gave us the beachy vacation vibe we were looking for!

An Amazing Sarasota Oasis!
The Funky Fish House is a beautiful oasis of a home with wonderful and functional furnishings and amenities inside and out. We loved the attention to detail in terms of decor and “livability” of all areas as we stayed for an entire week with the kids. The backyard was where we spent most of our time with the pool, hot tub, and covered patio areas perfectly situated to enjoy the verdant and lush landscaping day and night. On top of it all the owners were extremely helpful leading up to, during, and after our stay. We can’t wait to come back!
This home and property exceeded all expectations from the exceptional owners and their quick and thorough communication throughout the entire week to the unbelievably beautiful home that we had the privilege of enjoying all week. It was spotless, and every accommodation was made for their guests. Outside of the home was a paradise. The gorgeous pool with all the outside pool toys along with two outdoor TVs was one of the highlights. The owners provided beach chairs and towels, and shampoo and conditioner in all the bathrooms including the outside shower, which, by the way, was phenomenal! We will definitely stay here again. Five stars!!

Great find, perfect location and relaxing stay.
My wife and I discovered the Funky Fish House last year and what a great find. We have been getting together with our good friends in Sarasota/Siesta Key area for the past four years, and came across the Funky Fish House last year. What a great find! Perfect location, as you can be in downtown Sarasota or be at Siesta Key beach in ~15-20 min. The best part, is after spending a day at the beach, you come back to the beautifully landscaped yard and pool for cocktails, then take a relaxing outdoor shower. The house is fully-equipped and very clean. Any questions/concerns were addressed almost immediately by Cliff and Hannah. Highly recommend the Funky Fish House.
The property's interior is both extremely organized and visually appealing. The owners thought of everything , down to the finest details. This made for an incredibly relaxing stay! Thank you so much !

Amazing vacation home!
This is one of the best vacations homes we have ever rented. It is clean, extremely comfortable and full of amazing amenities. Cliff and Hannah did an amazing job decorating and paying attention to every little detail. The large kitchen is well equipped and great to cook in. The living room made for amazing game nights with the kids and the bedrooms are super comfortable. The backyard, with the pool, BBQ, and table makes this hose the perfect summer hang out spot. We truly loved it can’t wait to go back!

Wonderful home and Outstanding Backyard
This home is truly a wonderful place to rent/stay. The backyard is truly an oasis, the pool is great and the entire back yard is very spacious, and has lots of entertaining areas! The interior is exactly as shown and described, and is very well decorated and comfortable. I would highly recommend this place to anyone staying in the area. Additionally the owners were extremely responsive anytime we contacted them.
Of the dozens of different places we have stayed over the years, this one truly was turkey as we needed nothing but our personal items, our food, and everything else was provided!
Really a great place!
The Funky Fish House was a great home base for a week close to the Sarasota beaches. The outdoor space is fantastic, with a terrific pool, lots of comfortable and well-maintained seating, and plenty of room to spread out. We appreciated the variety of pool floats, beach chairs, and sand toys too. We traveled with two children, ages 8 and 11. The only way to access the backyard space from the house is through the third bedroom, and there is direct access to the pool. The property photos show this, but for folks who may be visiting with younger children, this could be a safety consideration to keep in mind. The kitchen was well stocked (we appreciated having a few K-Cups ready to go!), there were plenty of towels, and the beds were comfy. The owners and property manager were also very responsive and quick to help with a couple of issues that popped up.Thank you!
This was a beautiful home, tastefully decorated, and close to everything in Sarasota and the keys. We particularly loved that it had all the things we usually have to get ourselves when renting a place (ie paper towels, toilet paper, dish soap, coffee pods, half and half, etc). Mad it that much easier to just get there and relax. Pill and hot tub were clean and inviting. We didn’t end up cooking on the BBQ grill but it was there if we wanted it. Great outdoor space covered from the elements. Spend a lot of time out there playing cards. ROKU tvs made it easy to watch our regular shows and to quickly log out of all applications when we left. Would stay there again if heading to the Sarasota area!
Our stay at the Funky Fish House was an amazing experience! We will definitely be coming back. The listing images for the home are an accurate depiction of the home. The home has everything that you will need for the kitchen, bath, pool, even grilling. A lot of attention and love has gone into designing and decorating this home. The appliances are upscale and everything is well taken care of. You can tell that this is not a basic rental but the owner's dream getaway. The house is wonderful, but the pool/back is an oasis! The heated salt water pool is amazing, along with the hot tub, outdoor shower, back patio – all surrounded by a tall privacy fence. My wife and I went for our anniversary and it was like our own little paradise! The house is on a very quite street, there are plenty of restaurants nearby and just a few miles from the beach.

A true oasis. You will not want to leave :)
This stay exceeded ALL of my expectations (and they are pretty high, ha!). When you first arrive, you are greeted by a vibrant and welcoming blue front door. Enter and say hello to aesthetic relaxation! The decor is so tastefully done. An eclectic mix of beach items, pops of color, fun artwork, and the most awesome colorful decorative surfboard in the kitchen.
Appliances are modern and easy to use. Huge walk-in pantry with a cute blue vintage door. Giant sink overlooking the patio. Wet bar with a separate drink fridge. Top notch.
The family room has a comfy couch and FUN coffee table books. There is a plethora of games and kid books in the entryway table near the bathroom.
The main bedroom has a comfortable king size bed with a walk-closet and ample storage. There is also a laundry closet with detergent pods and Oxiclean! Every family’s necessity! Both bathrooms have been updated and have plenty of extra items should you forget a hair dryer, q-tips, etc.
Now for the outside…OASIS. A true oasis. From the beautiful giant green plants to the shaded verandas on either side of the sun room. We never wanted to leave. The pool is the *perfect* size and shape. One set of stairs but a giant platform to sit or lounge on, perfect for the kids to wade around in. The depth was perfect. Not entirely shallow, but too deep either. And the hot tub was a joy. And the outdoor shower. Woo! Outdoor showers > indoor showers. They also had two outdoor tvs, which we used in the evenings. And multiple beach chairs and beach toys that we were able to use for our days at Siesta Key.
If you are looking for a thoughtfully designed and comfortable space to relax in (without any tacky beach decor or excessive seashells/flamingos), look no further!
Book this place immediately! We are already looking forward to our next stay!
The property is very nicely organized. Good for 5 people max. The kitchen is fun to use, brand new and well equipped. We cooked all our dinners as a family and we weren't missing anything.
Communication with Cliff and Hannah was easy and any question was answered instantly. They are putting in a pool currently that once complete will be an absolute additional blast to this property.
We would use this home again.
