Thoughtfully Done, Peaceful, Private!We absolutely loved our stay at this private oasis property! From start to finish, everything was just as described — and even better. The host clearly puts a lot of care and intention into creating a warm, welcoming experience. Every detail felt well thought out, and it truly shows.  The house was spotlessly clean, incredibly comfortable, and had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully stocked, the furniture and beds were cozy, and the entire home felt like a peaceful retreat. We especially loved how quiet and private the setting was — the beautiful landscaping, and relaxing pool area made it feel like our own little oasis.We appreciated having clear instructions, a full description in the listing, and great communication, and a space that felt both high-quality and full of heart. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, well-cared-for getaway.  Parking no problem, fast Internet. Claudia and Lori make a super team. The host was kind, responsive, and clearly cares deeply about guest experience. It’s clear they’ve put years of work and love into this space. Quality hosts, quality property! Oh and the beach is super close, St Armand’s also, both walkable from the house. Just a relaxing and memorable stay. Highly recommend!

Total false advertising!

When we booked this place the ad said ENTIRE HOUSE.When we arrived we discovered it was a duplex and we were sharing the driveway, yard, and laundry room. Our truck was too long for the parking spot assigned to us and hung out into the road by 2 feet. We called immediately to find out what happened to the “entire house” rental. The property manager informed us that the ad stated IT WAS A DUPLEX. We pulled up the ad we used to book the place and at the very top it said ENTIRE HOUSE! Nothing about it being a duplex! Needless to say we were not happy at all. My husband gets ONE vacation a year and needs to recharge and chill. This was not going to happen here! We tried to find another place immediately, but nothing was available. We came into town for a family members high school graduation and it was the first night we were there. It was 40 minutes from this house so we did not get home that first night until 11:20 PM so we had to stay there. We told the property manager we would be out early the next morning and would need a refund. After several texts and phone calls she agreed to refund our money. When the refund came through she charged us a RIDICULOUS amount for ONE NIGHT! We only slept there, and left early the next morning. We expected to have to pay for one night, but she stuck it to us! Never have we dealt with such LIARS! Beware if you think you are renting out the entire house and I would NEVER trust anything these people say! Vacation was absolutely ruined!!
This is the laundry that you share with duplex. Photos have you believe it’s inside and
 not shared.
This is the duplex fence at the door of the “entire house” rental.
This is the 6x10 bathroom we were given to use when we thought we were getting a master bathroom in the master bedroom. The shower door barely misses the toilet. A few of the towels were stained a dirty       black.

Everything was ready for us to enjoy our vacation! Easy check in, parking, clean, well equipped kitchen and plenty of towels. Easy walk to the beach, St. Armands circle and to catch the free Trolly to downtown Sarasota. The pool was amazing!!! Heated, private and surrounded by beautiful palms and tropical plants. Perfect private paradise! We will be back!!!

Fantastic time, beach within walking distance and St Armands (a little sad that quite a few businesses have not yet reopened following the hurricanes). Property equipped with everything one could need and more! Truly home from home. Next time we’re back in Sarasota we will definitely hope to rebook.

Awesome Property and Owner

We have stayed at a lot of VRBO's and sometimes I get the feeling that the owner cleaned out all their old stuff out of their home and put it in their VRBO. Not the case here, nicely decorated and stocked for your time here (kitchen is nicely equipped as well). Location is just a five minute walk to the beach and seven minutes to St. Armands Circle. Pool was nice and the owner keeps it heated without charging you extra! Overall the property is well taken care of, nicely decorated, well stocked and well located along with a good owner!

Excellent Lido Key / Sarasota Property

My wife and I took our two boys (9) and (4) for a week's vacation. This property was perfect for our family, and Sandy (property manager) was excellent to work with and a proactive communicator. The house was in the perfect location for walking/biking to both the beach and St. Armand's Circle. We had bikes delivered to the house and made use of them to bike to Lido Key Beach, St. Armands Circle, South Lido Key Beach, and Mote Marine Aquarium, to name a few. We also took multiple drives to downtown Sarasota and Siesta Key. Did I say the location is fantastic. As for the property itself the pool was and landscaping was a wonderful oasis to take a break from the heat, and enjoy some privacy. Very spacious and well maintained. Inside, the entire house was updated and had all of the creature comforts one would expect at home. For a family of four this place was excellent.

Even has a good set of knives! Overall location of the property is amazing. Just a blocks walk to the beach (the property provides everything you need - chairs, buggy and umbrella) and St. Armands Circle which has everything from shopping, dining and live entertainment. Whatever you do, don't miss the sunsets, they're amazing!
