Lovely clean & comfortable home, communication was great as well. Recommended for anyone looking for a place close to the beach! Lots of great stores nearby as well. Our group loved shopping at Detwiler's Farm Market (local grocery chain).

We chose this house in Sarasota mainly to go to Lido beach (beautiful!)- it was a short, easy drive. I will say the main road the house is on is very busy - lots of speeding cars, but the backyard was still a nice place to sit. The house was clean, comfortable. We took a short walk each morning to a little coffee shop. Overall, a very nice stay!

Great yard, good location in Sarasota, and good value. It is on a main road, but the driveway is on the side road and the backyard is fenced, so wasn't an issue for us.

The place was exactly as advertised. Clean, great layout, and wonderful backyard. I would definitely recommend this place and will try and stay again next time I am in Sarasota. Easy drive to groceries and downtown. The host also did a great job with an email about the local stores, restaurants, etc.

Awesome House

House is in a great location. Was concerned about it being too close to the roadway but we honestly didn't hear any traffic. Prop manager was great and easy to work with. Had a small concern before checking in and the issue was resolved by the time we reached the house. Great location in proximity to Siesta beach. Supplied beach items was great too. Looking forward to being able to stay there again in the future.

Nice inside, But......

This place is very nice inside and well equipped, but it is on a main road with constant traffic all the time. Inside was nice, but the half drunk beer can left next to the bed didn't give a great first impression.I had a good stay, but was disappointed at the end. I left the place in great condition having cleaned everything and it was just me there........but despite leaving at the required time, I was still hassled to leave at the end because the cleaners arrived before their stated time. I also left an item there by mistake and despite asking the owner about it, I have been ignored.

I loved the house! Then inside was updated and modern. The backyard was immaculate. We did have to purchase our own tissue for the bathrooms though. There was only one roll in the bathrooms although we specified 6 guests for our 6 day stay. They didn’t last long. They have pots and pans available as well as dishes, cups, silverware, and a coffee maker. The icemaker wasn't working, so we purchased a bag of ice to use while there. The house is located on a busy street, but the driveway is on the side of the house and the entrance to the backyard and keypad entry is off of that side road, so it wasn't an issue. They had tons of towels and washcloths, including beach towels. They had 2 little chairs that we were able to take to the beach, which was only a 12 minute drive away. Overall, a nice home away from home to enjoy the beach and close shopping options.
