Convenient to the areas in Sarasota we wanted to visit.Short drive to St. Armands Key, Ringling Museum, Columbia Restaurant, Shelby Botanical Gardens and the Linger Lodge. Neighborhood a little questionable and drive way was tough when pickup trucks parked right behind you on street. Otherwise the house was clean and mostly quiet neighborhood.

Cute House with perfect location

I'm not big on reviews, but everything was perfect in this home. Decor, cleanliness, kitchen supplies, appliances, etc... the minutes from a grocery store and only 20 minutes from Siesta. Kirby was great answering any questions, and they provided us with any info needed about the home on the kitchen counter. Absolutely great price for this amazing spot. I'm sorry I didn't take pictures, but the pictures they posted speak for themselves

Very Enjoyable!

We (and our pet) took daily bike rides and walks around the very nice residential neighborhood that is a few blocks from Indian Beach. We enjoyed eating at several of the local restaurants and is only a few minutes to downtown Sarasota. The private fenced back yard and screen porch was our favorite place to relax. Kirby is a very pleasant and responsive host. It was our first long term rental and it did not disappoint.

Short stay

I contacted the owner several times prior to arriving on Oct 31.; in regards of the hurricanes that come through that area. The owner said all was good. Some fencing was down but would be up when we got there. Then a few days later I see about red tide being in the area. Once again, he reassured us that everything was good. Let’s just say, part of the fence is down, we did arrive an hour early and they gave us early access to the property. The gate only locked from the outside; which it’s a wooden fence and I had to life with all my might to get the latch to slide over and catch. This would Not be an issue if we didn’t have a dog with us and the fact they said everything was “good”. Also, not being very technical type of person; we struggled with the keyless entry along with the streaming of the tv. We realize that that area was beaten up with the storms; but just wanted an honest answer. Red tide is nothing to play around with especially when you have copd.

An Oasis

The property was charming and comfortable. It is conveniently located near the beach, approximately a 10-minute drive away. While the main bedroom does not have a television, the second bedroom has a decent-sized TV. The lanai is wonderful and the backyard is equipped with a hammock. The property provides all the necessary beach essentials. Overall, it was a delightful stay. 😊
