Mike is a great host and very responsive. His place was exceptionally clean and well equipped with everything you would need to have a great stay! The back yard is lovely with beautiful vegetation and landscaping. There are many areas to sit in both sun and shade. Mike’s recommendations of restaurants and things to do were excellent! Great stay!

The home was clean. Comfortable, inviting decor. The home is equipped with everything you need for a wonderful, relaxing stay. The Back Yard is AMAZING. Such a peaceful space to bring a book, play your music (quietly it is a neighborhood) and just enjoy the FL sun or shade, the back yard provides both. The host was wonderful. I hope to stay again soon!

What a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the surroundings of nature. A hidden gem so close to all the amenities Sarasota has to offer. The cottage was pristine clean, so inviting and had everything we needed for our 4-day stay. The backyard is a sanctuary with the bayou, the large deck, pretty landscape and fire pit. Geoffrey and his fiance, Elissa were gracious hosts and we will keep in touch the next time we are in the area. A truly great experience! Loved IT!!!!!

Great place in a convenient location

Great place in a convenient location

We absolutely loved our stay here. The place was clean and well laid out. Lots of space. WiFi was a bit iffy in the front rooms, but we never had too much of an issue, so I'm not really counting it as a negative. The location is great, with excellent access to both downtown Sarasota,beaches,and shopping. We really enjoyed South Lido Key park as much as the famous Siesta Key, so definitely check that out if you want somewhere less busy with great shells and beaches on 3 sides (you can get away from the wind).

My fiancé, our 16 month old baby and I really enjoyed our stay here. The house was immaculately clean with a “white” beach theme, cozy fireplaces and sitting areas. Communication with Geoffrey was a breeze, he even went above and beyond by having a pack-n-play ready for us when we arrived, making our travel load much lighter. We loved being able to wash towels and do our laundry before packing for home. The backyard looked like a scene out of the Jungle Cruise! Just gorgeous, and we spent time out there watching the schools of fish swimming by. The location is also very close to other hotels, Starbucks, and lots of parks for the kiddos to play. This place was perfect for our family and we would definitely book again!
