Exceeded expectations

The location is great. It is furnished nicely & was very clean. It is an older home, but has been totally renovated. Beautiful kitchen & furnished well. The master bed was very comfortable & attached bath has a great walk-in shower. The pool was wonderful & very clean. The only negative was we thought there were steps into the pool but only has an attached ladder. It would not have been a problem but one of us has a rather severe back condition. A railing into the house would also have been helpful. There is an attached garage but with the washer/dryer there was not room for the car. The owners were wonderful and immediately took care of a few minor issues. We would highly recommend this rental, we loved our stay!

Easy communication with the host and easy drive to Sarasota and the beach! House was clean and had everything we needed.

My mother was having surgery at Sarasota Memorial Hospital and this was the perfect place for our family during her stay at the hospital. The house itself was wonderful & very clean. Our favorite features - location (very close to hospital & beach), beautiful outdoor area, kitchen & nice appliances, several sitting/family room areas and plenty of towels & essentials etc. I have to say most of all- the owners were amazing. Very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Especially caring when my mother had some complications, I am forever thankful for their kindness during our visit in making a difficult situation easier.

We had a great stay to ring in the New Year! The location was convenient to get to Siesta Key which we went to each day. We hit downtown Sarasota for New Year’s Eve and had a great time with the carnival rides, pineapple drop and fireworks. The house was great with plenty of room for our family of 5. We cooked in the well stocked kitchen. The outdoor area and pool was nice, but didn’t have much of a chance to use it as we spent all of our nice weather time at the beach.

Nice refurbished home, beautiful pool. Close to downtown Sarasota, shopping and restaurants, and close to the beach. The house is right on a busy street, so the cars were noisy at night, but that wasn't a big deal.

Property is true to photos, great location, and owners were super responsive. I will recommend this property to my family and friends.

Nice house close to everything. Unfortunately as soon as we walked through the door, we were hit with a musty smell. At first we thought it was coming from the air conditioner and then after being there a while, we realized the house had a cockroach infestation which made our family very sick. With any amount of time spent in the house. Specially, my husband with his asthma. The homeowner knowing we were coming. Also, should have heated the pool which was ice cold. And wanted us to FaceTime them for directions on how to heat the pool which we refused. Unfortunately, we won’t be back Very disappointed in our stay.

This house was perfect for overflow guests that were in for graduation. The central location allowed them to explore the best of Sarasota with ease. They enjoyed being able to cool down in the pool and pond in front is very tranquil. Highly recommend.

This house worked out great! The house is laid out very nicely and is very clean. Centrally located between beach and downtown Sarasota. Enjoyed our stay very much!

The pool area is wonderful for family gatherings. There is outside noise from Tamiami Trail traffic which is very close.

We spent almost a week here with our daughter, her husband, and grand daughter. Really perfect for us and it was as advertised. Master BR had fantastic memory foam king bed (split - with motorized head / foot elevation), full bath, with large rain head shower. 2nd BR for our adult kids, and 3rd BR had bunk bed for 2 year old.
Good fully equipped galley kitchen, excellent Keurig K-cup / carafe coffee system. Outdoor grill was in good shape with high heat for steaks, etc....
Pool was clean and owner allows you to adjust temp to your liking. Uses heat pump - so temp takes several hours to move.
Location is excellent in terms of access to beaches and downtown stores / restaurants. Not walkable, but everything about a 10-12 min drive at most.
Beach towels and some chairs included as well - which was awesome.
House is one property in from Rte 41 - Tamiami Trail which is very busy and somewhat noisy. So just be prepared for that.
Gabriel and Michelle were super responsive and great in every way.

The house was spotless, welcoming, and was in a perfect centralized location close to the beach, restaurants, and quick trips around the area. The pool was perfect with the heater, I spent lots of time floating around reading a book. The whole backyard with the pool and landscaping was a cozy spot to relax. The owners were great and made sure everything was to our liking. I give it 5 stars. Stocked with lots of necessities, too!

We were so comfortable in this home and enjoyed the pool and living areas. So close to everything! We would stay here again!

This property was located in a great area, central to downtown Sarasota and beaches. Property was very well-equipped and very clean! We went in December during historic low temps, so I wish the hot tub was in working order, but it wasn’t filled with water. I’m glad there were games inside the home. We played Jenga & Scrabble and had a great time in spite of the cold weather. Overall, I would highly recommend this property! The host was very kind & communication was prompt. Great place!!!

This home is as pictured and very clean. The communication response with the owner could not have been any better. If you’re looking for a place off the keys, the price was a bargain for a home rental close to beaches, DT, local attractions, and conveniences.
One note-the king is actually two twins placed directly beside each other.

We enjoyed everything about this property! Great location for our visit to Sarasota with easy access to everything. The home was beautiful, gorgeous pool, fit our needs perfectly. We had a couple of questions when first checking in, and the manager, Michelle, answered us almost immediately. We enjoy staying at rental homes more than hotels now, and this home may have been the best VRBO experience yet! Highly recommend.

We loved the house on Grove St. It was clean and comfortable and we loved the heated pool. The hosts answered my questions promptly. While in Sarasota, my car decided to quit so the central location was great for Door Dash and Uber until my car was fixed.

Perfect location and great for kids!
We loved our stay here! The house is well stocked with nice games and books for kiddos. The pool is good sized and clean. The little spa end with benches was perfect for our 3 year old. Really everything we needed was supplied and good quality. The house is decorated super cute and the owners were very responsive and helpful to my questions. We would definitely stay here again!

This house in in a great location.. close to Siesta Key beach and a quick drive to downtown Sarasota. It is also near grocery stores and lots of restaurants. Upon entry in the home- it is very clean, comfy and equipped with everything you could need and more plus a pool (and comfy beds)! We enjoyed our stay to the fullest and the host was easy to contact and made sure to check-in and make sure everything was fine. Highly recommend!

The property was awesome, great reno saving the original beauty, yet the upgrades were well done. The master bed was comfortable. The Kitchen well equipped. (Might need a potholder). The smart TV was great we could keep up on our nightly shows. The pool was very nice after the beach. Pool towels provided. We did use the grill and cooked out one night. We had a very nice time. We had a couple questions during our stay and we got our answers right away. The location was close to beaches and every thing we wanted to do. Highly recommend.

Your place was loved by all who stayed. My mom did come visit us and loved it as well. You both were easy to communicate with. The house was very clean and greatly decorated. So close to everything. My son & his girlfriend enjoyed the bikes as well as we all enjoyed the pool. I want to thank you for allowing us to stay the extra day. (huge help for my daughter, son in law and grand baby). I will recommend this to all our Ohio friends and can not wait to stay there again.

Sarasota Weekend Winter Getaway
Great central location to enjoy a winter break in the Sarasota area. Loved being able to get on our bikes and ride through the local streets to the beach and along the downtown marina, parks & paths (e.g. the beautiful Siesta Key area). Very close to major roads for quick access to various other beaches and tourist sites in Southwest Florida. The home has been recently updated ... very cozy and with nice decor. Had everything we needed for a nice relaxing stay.
