10 min drive to downtown Sarasota. Don't get too excited by the "3 Blocks to the Coast" - that's an insignificant detail to say the least... Plan on 20 min drive to the nearest public beach if you're lucky and there's no traffic. The unit was very clean! Only exception was the filthy BBQ in the backyard - could use some TLC. Furniture, amenities, and supplies are reasonable yet at the low end of the range for the price point. For example: Squeaky bed, sagging sofa, nice large TV but way too far from seating area, 2 rolls of toilet paper one of which at lowest possible quality, 9 nespresso pods (2 people * 7 days, do the math please), etc. Very weak water pressure in the shower.

Very comfortable
Typically I have a hard time being comfortable when I’m away from home but I slept well, relaxed easy here. It was quiet but only minutes to the points of interest for us. Kitchen was stocked with essentials to make meals (even though I didn’t 😂). I didn’t like the electronic keypad to get in. Would have liked more wash rags. Very minor. I would definitely stay again!

Short Stay in Sarasota
The property came as advertised online on VRBO and met all our requirements for our stay. We appreciated the spacious living room / dining area and enjoyed morning walks on Bayshore Drive which was close by. Quick access to major roads was a big plus for us as we travelled to many locations during our stay. The property management team were available, helpful and responsive in attending to a couple of minor issues we had which was very comforting to us. Overall this was a very good rental experience for my wife and I.
