Cute little cottage
I stayed here with my daughters and their friends, ages 16-20. There was just enough space for us to be cozy, it was affordable, and close enough to the beach for us. We also loved having Trader Joes close to us.

Vacation Paradise
This was our first time in Florida. We loved this house. It’s in the perfect location to visit downtown Sarasota, Siesta Key, Lido Key, St Armand’s Circle, Bradenton, and Venice Beach. Very comfortable, lovely home in the heart of it all. We used the beach chairs and towels. They were so helpful to have. Highly recommend this home!

Total Comfort in Convenient Location
This property was scrupulously clean, except for some moldy cushions on the back deck. Very comfortable and well appointed. Scrupulously clean which is always much appreciated. Follow the guidebook instructions for the shortcut And around busy road traffic. Even though there's a busy road fairly close by, there is no noise at the property. There is a renter in a studio building in the backyard. We were surprised by this, as I don't think it was noted in the listing, but there was no problem or noise with the tenant being there. We would stay here again.

Great Choice!
Everything about this property was as advertised. It was clean, fresh and well apportioned. We lacked for nothing. The location gives you quick access to tons of things to do. The check in process was a breeze and the property manager was quickly available by text. We may make this a regular get away place.
