About this property

Tropical, private, downtown

You’ll more than enjoy your accommodations and be very glad you chose to stay here. Your apartment is well appointed, comfortable and extremely clean. Original art floods the walls. The garden area is lush, quiet and relaxing with sunshine filtering through a canopy of 200 year old oak trees overhead. Comfortable outdoor sofa and accent chairs as well as a patio table and chairs set with a backdrop of Giant Birds of Paradise and thick bushy palms. The cafe lights walk with you from your car to apartment. A private gem walking distance to everything. Private off street parking and washer and dryer with everything you need to do laundry. . Beach chairs, huge beach towels, beach bag, boogie boards, innertubes, snorkels, beach umbrellas all available to you. Dog shower. New mattresses and smart TVs with all of the movie channels. ****************When you book your flights and you get into Sarasota at 2:30 THAT is the time to figure out if you’ll pick up groceries during that time until check-in or would like to ask for an early check in. One hour before check-in is not. I CANNOT DO SAME DAY EARLY CHECK-IN REQUESTS FOR ANY REASON. If you request it at the same time you book your flight I will accommodate you. There will be a $100 deposit for this but if you show up early you get your money back. If you show up at the regular check-in time after we’ve worked hard to get your apartment ready early I will be unable to refund your deposit. If you’re driving I cannot accommodate early check-in

The highlight of this mini vacation trip was the host Christie, she was very helpful and communicative. Telling me all kind of info for our trip. The apartment was clean, spacious and perfect for a couple. a nice patio to chat and relax after a long day. Very good restaurants around, walking distance and the beach is beautiful.

Host went above and beyond to help us find tennis courts. Condo was very small if you are wanting to prep food - limited counter space. Limited kitchen dishes - two bowls, no cutting board. Outdoor space is shared - and the only table is outside. The area is pet friendly… and there was dog poop next to table for several days, very off putting to eat next to. The outdoor furniture needs a refresh. I was cold at night - limited bedding. This is a downstairs unit - and there is a rental above which can be very noisy when they walk around. Location was good. Lots of beach gear - towels, chairs, etc. Laundry on site is a perk.

a perfect spot for an important weekend, at a great price

The property was perfectly located for our 3-day stay, and the owner was so accomodating to our needs. The entrance to our unit was at the back of the property (easily accessible), where there is a lovely and secluded area for morning tea/coffee or an evening chat. The kitchenette had everything we needed, and the shower was delightful on warm Florida days. So grateful-
