It was our pleasure having you and Scott come back to stay with us again this season. We appreciate your conscientiousness in treating our condo as if it were your very own!
The location was great, close to the pool. Linda was wonderful to work with. Was immediately responsive when I had any questions and gave some great ideas on things to do around the area.

Thank you Katherine for choosing our condo for your family's vacation. Glad you all enjoyed the Villagio's lakefront pool just steps from the condo! Come stay with us again next year and make some more fabulous family memories!
We stayed at this property for 2 weeks and it was great. The condo looked exactly like the pictures posted and was in prestige condition. Host went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was perfect. I highly recommend this property!
This is the perfect vacation stay! The property is amazing, clean, quiet, and so comfortable. They had beach towels and beach chairs, making it the easiest for those of us traveling by plane! The pool was amazing and the beaches weren't too far away! Linda was a phenomenal host and made everything easy for us. We would definitely look into staying here again.

Hi, William!
Thank you for choosing us for your VRBO home-away-from-home! We are very happy you had a great stay with us and hope you choose to stay with us on your next Sarasota vacation!
Condo was perfect. Close to the pool, and very quiet.
Only thing that owner might need to add is vacuum cleaner for rug in living room.

Hi, Ted
Thank you for your review! I'm so glad you all enjoyed your stay. Recall when you first inquired about a vacuum, we immediately went to Lowe's and bought a new Shark Navigator Lift Away. I sent you a picture of the box. No worries though! You are all welcome back in the future and the new Shark awaits:)
Recently tastefully redecorated. The owners are a delight and very available. We enjoyed staying at Villagio with a beautiful pool, tennis court, putting green and gym available. The location is perfect, only 10 minutes to downtown, the beach, a Publix, and marvelous restaurants. It is quiet and gated for security. We have already booked for next year.
Very friendly property manager who was incredibly kind and attentive. Very nice condo complex. Beautiful clubhouse and swimming pool. Within 20 driving to everything in Sarasota, Siesta, St Armand’s, UTC. Condo is very well stocked with dishes, coffee maker, air fryer, brand new TV, comfortable beds, tastefully decorated. No complaints here, first floor easily accessible close to pool. I would do six stars if I could. There was even plenty of coffee and olive oil.

Thank you Victor. You have been a fabulous guest that is very considerate and very easy to communicate with. We warmly welcome you to stay with us again in 2024!
We just returned from a two-week stay at a lovely condo in Sarasota. It is in Villiago, a gated-community, close to everything. They have a beautiful swimming pool, exercise room, tennis and pickle ball courts which are available to guests staying there. The condo was newly decorated in a Floridian-style which really added to the atmosphere of being in Florida. The pictures look exactly like the condo. Everything you need is at your fingertips. The condo is on the ground floor so there are
no steps to climb. Linda was the perfect hostess. She
was hospitable and was there if you needed her. It was
the perfect place to stay when we were in Florida for my
son's wedding over Memorial weekend.

I'm a Florida native returning to Paradise after 17 years in Louisville KY with my family.

To date, we have completed 17 properties in Sarasota. In 2013 we took the plunge and moved to Sarasota. We LOVE living here and KNOW you will LOVE visiting and returning to our condo in Villagio again and again. You will especially LOVE LIVING the maintenance-free, amenity-rich lifestyle that is offered to you in gated Villagio. Villagio is central to EVERYTHING Sarasota: We are just 5 minutes to DT Sarasota and a short drive over the RIngling Bridge to St. Armands and Lido Beach. We are a 5 minute walk to Ed Smith Stadium, baseball's Spring Training home to the Baltimore Orioles. We are 15 minutes by car to Sarasota's newest gem, Benderson Park and The UTC Mall. Why stay anywhere else when you can have it all right here in our beautiful condo in Paradise!
