About this property

Backyard Breakaway - Your Private Slice Of Sarasota Shade

Backyard Breakaway - Your private slice of Sarasota shade

**Spacious, private, stylish - and just minutes from Sarasota’s best.**
Only **10 minutes from downtown**, **15 minutes to Siesta Key, Lido Beach, and St. Armands Circle**, this light-filled retreat gives you all the sunshine with just the right amount of shade. Whether you’re sipping morning coffee under the palms, watching a movie on the big-screen TV, or stepping out for a beach day—you’ll feel right at home, and right where you’re meant to be.



**Designed for Breezy Living**
This isn’t your average Florida rental—it’s a space with flow.
The open-concept layout makes it easy to gather, spread out, and breathe. From the **sun-drenched living room** with comfy sectional and games, to the **dining area set for 6**, to the **fully stocked kitchen** with everything you need (yep, even a blender and wine opener)—you’ll feel like you’ve arrived, not like you’re checking in.


**The Outdoor Vibe: Private. Peaceful. Perfectly Shaded.**
Step through the back doors and you’re instantly in your *own* little Sarasota sanctuary.
A **covered patio**, lush **private yard**, and **outdoor coffee nook** create the kind of space that makes mornings magical and evenings stretch late into laughter. Bring a book. Or don’t. Just let the breeze do the work.


**Sleep Spaces That Make You *Actually* Sleep**
Each bedroom is designed for comfort.
Soft sheets, fresh linens, and calming touches throughout. Whether you’re traveling with family, friends, or colleagues—you’ll have space to relax and reset after a day in the sun. (And yes, **fast WiFi** and **cold AC** come standard.)



**Location. Location. Vibes.**
* **10 minutes to Downtown Sarasota** – art, food, cocktails, and charm.
* **15 minutes to Siesta Key Beach, Lido Beach, and St. Armands Circle** – some of the best beaches and shopping on the Gulf.
* **Quick hop to SRQ Airport** – but you'd never know it from how quiet it feels here.
* Grocery stores, restaurants, gyms, and coffee? All within a few minutes.

You’re close to everything - but you won’t feel surrounded. This is your own shady little escape.



**Clean, Comfortable, and Ready for You**
We don’t take shortcuts. The house is cleaned professionally, the towels are fluffy, the beds are crisp, and the space is styled to make you feel welcome. Whether you’re staying for a quick weekend, a full week of vacation, or using the space as a peaceful work-from-home hub, we’ve got you covered.



**What Guests Say**
> “It’s rare to find a place that feels this quiet *and* this central.”
>
> “My favorite part was the backyard. Morning coffee outside in the shade? Unreal.”
>
> “Clean, cute, and crazy comfortable. We didn’t want to leave.”


**The Bottom Line**
This is more than a place to crash - it’s the kind of home that gently upgrades your vacation without trying too hard.
Book your stay. Grab a towel. Sarasota’s waiting.
