Very nice property. Property managers couldn’t have been better to work with. Our favorite part was the privacy of the property. Very nice established neighborhood with wild peacocks roaming around. Had an issue with the pool heater which was disappointing as the water was a bit chilly. Was unable to get it resolved prior to our departure, but property owner and property manager worked with us on partial refund.

A lovely house in a great location. Everything exceeded our expectations. Although the location provides many local attractions: the sea, downtown Sarasoto the Ringling museums and serious shopping are minutes away, it was very tempting to enjoy the quiet life by the pool.
Lovely sunsets -not quite visible!

Lovely oasis, comfortable, cozy, convenient, located in a beautiful, quiet, old Florida neighborhood. Friendly peacocks visit each morning, beautiful pool and patio w waterfall and fountain for morning coffee and afternoon / evening unwinding, a perfect respite for relaxing and re-setting. We'll be back!

Host was very welcoming. Home was very nice with a few exceptions. Blinds on front windows/door with missing several blinds - felt like we were sitting in a fish bowl in the evening with the lights on. Had to purchase toilet paper to get us through the week and no back up trash bags, only the one in the can. Remote controls did not work for lights and we were just guessing how to use them as there were no instructions.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We absolutely loved the secluded oasis of a backyard with a pool and gorgeous plant life! We even got to experience close up encounters with peacocks that would visit us in the front yard! Highly recommend!

The home was perfect. My daughter was in Sarasota for business and I tagged along for some relaxation. We couldn’t ask for a better location. Close to everything but extremely peaceful, private and quiet. The pool was amazing and we enjoyed it throughly! The host was easy to contact and very accommodating. And the Peacocks greeting us when we arrived and stopping by to visit periodically was an unexpected treat! Overall I would definitely recommend this home to anyone and I definitely would stay here again if ever returning to Sarasota.
