Excellent location. Beautiful accommodations. Thoughtful, responsive host.

Property was well located and well equipped. The house is lovely and very spacious. Bedrooms were massive and very clean. Loved this holiday. There was a complimentary bottle of wine in the fridge for us when we arrived which was well needed. The owners were available for any questions we had and dealt with everything efficiently. Next time we go to Sarasota we will definitely go back to this villa. The McNairs Ayr - Scotland

We really enjoyed our stay at Villa Colleen! This was the best equipped and supplied rental home we have experienced - kitchen appliances and utensils; bath towels; beach towels; bikes; pool toys; welcome book with instructions, beach information and suggested attractions, etc.; brochures, games, cards; everything we needed for our 3 week stay. The pool and lanai area is fantastic and although it was cool during our time in January we still spent lots of time having morning coffee by the pool, playing cards on the lanai, and fixing great meals on the outdoor grill. With the solar heated water we were even able to get in the pool a few times. And the geographic location of Villa Colleen is great - easy, short driving to Siesta Key, all the Sarasota attractions, St. Armands, Venice, Myakka River, and even Bradenton and Anna Maria! The bedroom arrangements are terrific and provide privacy and comfort for 3 couples and / or a large family with children. All in all, a great rental property in the Sarasota area that is hard to beat!

Our family stayed in this beautiful home for Christmas week. We came in from Illinois and brought in children from Indiana and California. Everyone had their own space and absolutely loved it! Erica and Henry were so careful with letting us know all of the ins and outs of the place. So kind of them. Everything went very smoothly– getting into the house, seeing where everything is, and the location! Exceptional! I would highly recommend this vacation home to anyone wanting a beautiful spot, refreshment, and everything you would need for a beach stay! Wonderful beds, full kitchen, washer and dryer, more towels than you would ever need, lovely dining room, doors that open out to a lanai with amazing pool, I could go on and on. We absolutely had one of the best times together that we have had. We had a two-year-old and a one-year-old with us and there was plenty a room for them to run around in the house and they had a room of their own. The closets were so big we used one of them as a nursery! I cannot say enough positive about this place. We stayed on the front porch and the lanai and the living area. And on Christmas Eve whole neighborhood was lit with luminaries up and down the streets. Quiet street. Very close to beaches. The garage for us to park. So many amenities. Exceptionally clean and stocked with all you would need. Don’t miss out. This place is a gem. And the owners go above and beyond to help you feel welcome. Can’t wait to go back!

We absolutely loved our month at Villa Colleen. With the three king beds all with their own bathrooms it was perfect for my sisters and I. The home has everything anyone could need! From plenty of beachtowels to beach chairs ,umbrellas ,canopies , coolers,you name it it is there. We spent many days by the beautiful sparkling pool and with the solar heat the water was very warm ! They even left us a bucket with car wash soap and a sponge since we drove 1500 miles with three different cars ! The home is in a great neighborhood and close to many stores, restaurants shops etc. siesta keys beach is close by and is absolutely beautiful. The whitest sand you could ever see ! The owners go above and beyond to make sure you have everything you need. The water heater started to leak and the plumber was there to replace it that very day. They also have four new bikes that you can cruise the neighborhood or even take them to the legacy trail which runs 20+ miles. The backyard is lit beautifully at night and very private… Basically the backyard is screened in and you can leave all three patio doors open to enjoy the tropical Florida air ! So pack a small bag and your sunscreen because that’s basically all you will need .
