This is a very conveniently located studio apartment with a quality designed interior and a charmingly designed private sitting area just outside your door. Perfect for a single person or couple. The host is accommodating and makes you feel comfortable in communicating any questions you my have.

Comfortable Private Location

This place was very well decorated, clean and comfortable. The host was very friendly and helpful. The fenced in yard (we have a 5 year old dog) and patio made for a great time of privacy and freedom while eating lunch outside. Jeanette

Great place to weekend.

Very nice mini-suite. Super clean and well thought out. Lots of towels and very spacious bathroom. Neighborhood was rough. No manicured lawns here but location was great for me. Close to stores and main roads. Hosts on site and available. I would stay again.

Don't Make A Highly Expensive Mistake

The property photos and description do not add up to the experience. It's on a very loud, heavy traffic 4-lane road, which combined with the simple single-pane glass windows makes for a 24-hour effect of being right at the curb. The front, side and back yards are an unkempt mess. Open the entry door and you're immediately hit with the powerful smell of mildew. Open a cabinet door and it becomes overwhelming. Understandable that the dishes were dirty (one coffee cup had a prescription pill permanently melted to the inside) since there isn't something so a basic as a sink stopper included. It says there's a toaster oven - there isn't. Another disgusting surprise was a large personal vibrator stored in one of the bed base's drawers. There were gnats constantly flying around us such that trying to catch and kill them out of mid-air was an exercise in futility. The one lone bright spot was the bathroom. It was clean and the shower pressure was strong. Ends up this is a Sarasota thing, which we found out only after leaving to find another place to stay after the first night. It was entirely too depressing and disgusting to stay at this VRBO more than one night. Don't make the same highly expensive mistake we did by believing the ratings, photos and descriptions.

Since your stay, a lot has changed here — we’ve renovated areas, improved processes, and continue to focus on our guests’ well-being. We’re sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations. Since your stay in early 2024, our property has gone through several important improvements. The backyard, which had been damaged due to a hurricane, has been fully renovated. We added fencing, updated the outdoor area, and included new furniture to create a more pleasant environment for our guests. Regarding the item found in the bed drawer and the cup with residue, we sincerely apologize — that specific drawer had not been opened or checked during the previous cleaning, and since then we’ve reinforced our inspection process. We understand that Sarasota’s subtropical climate can attract insects during certain times of the year. We provide repellent and have implemented additional pest control measures to minimize any inconvenience. Our listing clearly states that we are located near one of Sarasota’s busiest avenues, and the studio is located at the back of the main house, which helps reduce noise. Most of our guests feel comfortable, but we understand that sound sensitivity can vary from person to person. We’re glad to hear you appreciated the bathroom and the shower pressure. We are committed to providing a clean and welcoming space, and your feedback helped us make further improvements. We always strive to keep our descriptions honest and our photos updated to faithfully represent the space, and we continue updating them as improvements are made.
