This spectacular 1900 sq ft, 3/2 is perfectly located for everything Sarasota has to offer; world-class beaches, theaters, restaurants, museums and so much more. Wood street is an eclectic, quiet and friendly neighborhood 20 minutes walk (or 3 minute uber) from Main Street where eateries range from glamorous rooftop bars to rustic tiki bars. See below for distances to other Sarasota attractions.
The home has an open floor plan, high ceilings, polished concrete floors and high-end furnishings, rugs and artwork throughout, providing an ideal layout for both relaxation and entertaining. The living area and master bedroom have high transom windows (the master bedroom's has a remote control blackout shade). Central air/heat and ceiling fans in all the bedrooms ensure your comfort.
Interior features;
Gourmet, galley style kitchen kitted out with everything the discerning chef could need, whether making a quick smoothie or cooking a cordon bleu dinner for guests. A huge sparkling white quartz breakfast bar links the kitchen to the dining area which seats 8 comfortably, 12 at push.
Living area is luxuriously appointed with a giant off-white leather sectional which can seat 6 comfortably and an LED flame effect fireplace to provide the perfect ambiance at the press of a remote. Sleek glass sliding doors overlook the pool and provide access to the outdoor kitchen and dining area. A 60" Samsung smart plasma TV is enabled for your own online-streaming applications (please don't forget to log off at the end of your stay).
Master suite with king bed, sitting area, smart TV, sliding glass doors leading to the pool, a huge walk-in closet, and bathroom with 2-person, free-standing soaking tub, double shower and, of course, double sinks and a separate W.C.
Guest room #1, "jungle room", with a queen bed, plenty of storage and artwork from around the world.
Guest room #2, "teal room", with twin beds which can be separated or configured as a king and, again, plenty of storage.
Both guest rooms share a bathroom with a spacious walk-in shower, They both look out onto the enclosed Zen courtyard at the front of the property (complete with bamboo fountain) and are a discreet distance from the master suite.
A laundry room with washer and dryer links the kitchen with the integral garage.
Exterior features;
Private yard continues the flow of the modern, urban interior with lush palms combined with contemporary concrete divided by astro turf. The heated 34’ x 12’ pool has a 10' sun ledge complete with a pair of ledge loungers and side table (no glass in the pool area please). A long, custom fire-pit is surrounded by low-level seating with Sunbrella cushions and a turquoise ceramic water feature provides a stylish focal point.

5.0 / 5.0
My partner and I needed to get away from the cold and rain in LA, so we took a chance and booked Nikki's place in Sarasota, a city we've never visited but heard great things about. Right from the start we knew we picked a winner. The house was incredible with vaulted ceilings, well appointed, super clean, and everything just seemed to be where you'd expect it to be. Both the front and back yards were incredibly private. Yet, you could walk a few minutes and be in downtown Sarasota, which was really impressive. Beautiful beaches, architecture, restaurants, museums, and entertainment. We were able to catch a theater performance at the Van Wezel theater which was top notch.
Our host Nikki was available, cheerful, and helpful when we reached out to her with a few random questions. Other than that, she was invisible and gave us space to enjoy our time in her lovely home and town.
Couldn't have been happier with this stay. If you have the inclination to see Sarasota, this is a great place to do it from. Thanks, Nikki!!!

Better than the photos!
This property is so sharp. The pictures don’t do it justice. We felt like we were in our own little oasis with that private pool and chairs. It was easy to get around town and neighbors are quiet and friendly. Highly recommend.

Gorgeous home away from home
My husband and 2 teens stayed at this lovely house and all I could say when I saw it in person was WOW!!! The house is decorated beautifully and, more importantly, it was spotless! Super clean. The location is great too. I feel like everything we wanted to do was only 10-15 minutes away. The outdoor space was super cool as well. We will definitely be back!!

4.0 / 5.0
Very relaxing!
This house was VERY clean, even in the nooks and crannies. The layout of the house is great, including expansive master suite with bedroom and sitting area, large bathroom with 2 shower heads and soaker tub, and 2 walk-in closets. Kitchen better equipped than most rental homes with plenty of pots, pans, and small appliances. Also nice to have a garage. The property manager was highly responsive and nice to deal with. Only suggestions are to update the kitchen appliances, make sure outdoor kitchen is set up for use, and a few additional beach towels would be nice. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this property and this property manager.

Private Paradise Minutes from Town and Beaches
From the open floor plan, to the 18 foot ceilings, to the private pool, outdoor lounge and dinning area, we enjoyed every moment of our stay at Alta Vista. Beaches, Payne Park, museums, theaters and restaurants just minutes away by foot, bike, or car. We will definitely return to this Private Paradise.

“Best Shelter-in-place ever!”.
We booked this wonderful home near to where we live to self-distance from relatives staying at our home as we were worried about the Corona - Virus.
We could not have been happier with our stay and will definitely be recommending this home to our visiting out- of - towners when things return to normal.
This beautiful modern house has every amenity and comfort of a home. Chic but so livable ....the outdoor area is gorgeous beautifully kept with a stunning pool...one does not need to leave the property!!

Just as good as we remembered!
We stayed here last year and couldn't wait to come back for a longer stay. The house is gorgeous, immaculately clean and the location is central to everything. Could not recommend more - we'll be back again!

Never thought I’d be pleased to have our house tented!
Beautiful home! My family stayed here while we had to vacate our home for a week. The home is in the perfect spot to get anywhere in Sarasota and has plenty of off-street parking; even my teens were happy and really loved the pool. It turned out to be a real treat for my family to stay in such a pristine and beautiful home. Nikki was extremely helpful – she even provided me with the details on her paint colors. Now that we are back home, I’m planning to liven up our place with the same gorgeous color scheme. Highly recommended.
Thank you!

My family stayed here for a weekend to go fishing with nearby friends. We were extremely pleased with everything. Nikki is a very accommodating host and ensured our stay was perfect. No complaints at all, very happy, will be back.

Wish we could have stayed longer
We were in SRQ for one night for a reunion. As soon as we arrived we relocated the reunion to this home and spent a wonderful evening with our friends cooking outside and hanging out around the beautiful pool and fire-pit. We had everything we needed to entertain 20 people in a glamorous setting. Already looking at booking a longer stay for next year's reunion. Thank you!
5.0 / 5.0
Spectacular!
We felt like we were staying in a private villa in a 5-star resort. This was my first VRBO experience and we were Nikki's first guests. I could not have been more impressed both by the home, the location (we could walk to Downtown and the Bay-front), and the experience as a whole. No more hotels for me!
