Owner and Erin are exceptionally nice. Love the area.

Wonderful vacation, great location, walking distance to beach

We experienced a couple of issues which were out of the owners control. The owners were very helpful in resolving these issues. They did their best to make sure our stay was enjoyable. We found the cottage very clean. We hope to come back in the future.

Lovely apartment felt like home..close to the beach in a quiet area. Games for the kids..bikes..cornhole. Everything you need was provided even the laundry supplies. Highly recommend this property.

Very laid back and relaxing! 2nd year going and plan to return next year!

Really enjoyed our family stay at the house. Had everything we could have asked for. we have booked for next year.

We love coming to the island and would have enjoyed the great location more if we hadn’t had to leave early because of the covid 19 virus. We would definitely come back again next year if we get the opportunity. Thanks to the owners for having everything we needed!

This apartment is in an excellent location with two beach accesses just a short walk away! We were very comfortable here, but it could use some decluttering in the closets and drawers. Mattress were too soft for us and our company. Overall, we loved our stay and would rent it again!

My wife and I had a wonderful time at Gail's property! Short walk to the beaches, brand new bikes to ride, brand new gas grill to grill out fresh fish, full kitchen with both a Keurig and and full pot of coffee if you prefer. Truly a very homey, comfortable place to stay, whether it's for a long weekend or a month or more. Never felt closed in, just enough space to spread out and enjoy. The best location I can think of in Florida if you like both "old Florida" feel and all the modern conveniences of gourmet restaurants, grocery stores, shopping at near by Armand Circle in Sarasota. Just a fantastic place to get away from the routine of life. Thank you Gail for being so responsive to our requests. You are a wonderful host! God bless and we will see you next year. Mark & Jane

Loved the location- within walking distance of the beautiful beach. It was everything we needed for our family. I loved that it had hand soap, dishwasher soap, laundry detergent, and toliet paper provided. My only complaint would be the clutter. There isn't anywhere to really put dry goods and lots of junk in drawers, etc. However, we didn't spend a lot of time there so it was alright. Fantastic owners who respond quickly!

We were looking for an inexpensive property with close proximity to my Mom on LBK to bring the family for Thanksgiving and this rental certainly came through. Very nice amenities and never felt like it was lacking for anything. The owner lives out of state but has a local caretaker for "boots on the ground." This became relevant as the toilet gave us problems (fill valve needed to be replaced) but the owner was extremely responsive and I don't view it as a negative - these things happen sometimes - and if anything the owner impressed me by how it was dealt with. Would definitely rent here again.

Love the location... just steps to the beach!

Renting process was super easy. Owners are very nice and accommodating. Cottage was very clean and comfortable. Quiet neighborhood, not a lot of tourist, exactly what me and my family wanted! We are definitely coming back next summer!

We had a fantastic vacation in LongBoat Key ! The cottage is really good, well equipped we did not miss anything ! Just a short walking distance to public beaches! We really enjoyed the stay: The house, the area and the relaxas atmosphere!

Quiet location.Close to the beach. Beautiful sunset!

This was a return visit for us - the cottage has everything you need to enjoy a restful or active beach vacation. Within walking distance to the beach and just a short car ride to close-by beaches, during our visit we enjoyed bike riding, kayaking, shopping and dining at St. Armand's Circle, and of course, the beautiful water of the Gulf of Mexico. Nearby restaurants offer delicious local seafood and plenty of waterfront dining. You won't be disappointed!

The property is located in a very nice neighborhood giving a feeling of privacy. Easy, short walk to two beaches that are never crowded. Great tree in the side yard for sitting under relaxing and reading. Very comfortable beds, clean living space and contains every thing a home needs. We will be back next year

Great location. Enjoyed the unit ---very well equipped . My friend had the second bedroom and if you're renting to adults you need to have better mattress on those beds. The deck and stairs need attention . those blocks at the bottom are a real hazard. That being said we would come back there anytime.

We stayed two months at 7150 Joy street. The furniture was nice, comfortable and clean. We had no issues at all.. good appliances, nice dishes and cookware. We had adequate kitchen cupboard space and when one stays this length of time, that can be important. This unit and this price was just what we were looking for. The beaches are a few minutes walk and the location suited us, as we also wanted to be close to Anna Maria Island. A good stay for us !

We love our stay here for the month of January. The place was equipped with everything we needed. It was close to the Beach and plenty of great places to eat and hang out. We trailered our motorcycle and there was plenty of space to park it on the premises. We rode, ate and hung out from St. Pete to Englewood. We highly recommend this place!

Best vacation ever! Feels like home and the beach is beautiful!

This is our third time staying in this cottage and we have already booked for 2018. The cottage is just a short walk to the beach. The beach is always beautiful and never crowded. Cottage is nicely furnished and in a great location. The owners are very easy to work with. I highly recommend this cottage.

We loved the Joy Street rental. We stayed in the second floor unit and found it extremely clean and comfortable. All the electronics and appliances worked great. The living room and the beds are very comfortable. The AC worked great and the water pressure in the shower was awesome. The owners have provided everything you will need for the kitchen and there are plenty of towels. I can't say enough about the beach. A very easy short walk and your there. Because the North Beach has limited parking it never gets too crowded. The location of this rental in relation to Anna Marie Island and Siesta Key and Sarasota make it the perfect location for this area. The Publix on Longboat is the nicest one I have ever been in. This rental is a GREAT value. The owners are very accommodating and easy to work with. We will be back
