Off Tropic was amazing for our one week stay. Many restaurants and a market within a short walk. Britney our host was amazing, she went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed for our stay. The home is actually better than what is shown on VRBO, the place was extremely clean and well equipped with all you need for your stay. Many Thanks, Ronnie and Kathy

Loved this home!
We had a great two weeks at this beautiful home for our Grandsons graduation. The location couldn’t be better to the Van Wezel, Main Street, Siesta Key Beach, and St Armand's Circle, and amazing restaurants. So nice to be walking distance to Morton’s Market, and The Spoon for breakfast, in addition to many shops and restaurants. The home has everything you need. Beds are extremely comfortable. Kitchen is well stocked, but we only made a couple meals. After a busy day, it was great to cool off in the pool. We would definitely stay here again.

WOW!! - Excllent Property & Location
We stayed at Off Tropic for two weeks in August/September and were thoroughly impressed.
The property is stunning, spacious, and very clean. Upon entry, you’re greeted by an open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area.
To the left is the impressive primary suite with a large bedroom and en-suite, along with a smaller room with shared access to the bathroom via a Jack-and-Jill setup.
On the right, there’s a utility room, a bedroom with two single beds and its own en-suite, another bedroom, main bathroom and an office with a wet bar.
The outdoor area features a large pool, whirlpool/hot tub, and plenty of loungers for relaxation.
The location is unbeatable—1.5 miles from downtown, with Morton’s Speciality Market, Libby’s, Veronica’s, 1414 Grill, and Legends Sports Bar just 100 meters away. Further along the street is Gecko's and Brady's Bars. Siesta Key and St. Armands are only a 10-15 minute Uber ride away. Publix & CVS are 5 minutes away in the car too.
The only minor suggestion would be to swap the double bed with the two singles to give another couple access to the en-suite. The management team was excellent, communicating only when needed and quickly responding to any queries.
Overall, Off Tropic was a fantastic stay, and we would 100% return!

We can't wait to come back!
We love visiting Sarasota, and this home was absolutely perfect for our vacation. Everyone was wowed by the interior spaces and the private pool; it's simply gorgeous. It has all the comforts of home but better. We were impressed by how clean the home is; bedroom mattresses were high quality, as were the soft linens; plus the kitchen had more than the basics to allow us to cook in and enjoy the screened-in lanai/pool area each evening. Location was perfection, so close to our favorite restaurants and a short drive to the beach. Excellent rental home, 5 very bright stars! Recommend.
