About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Very tropical, private and peaceful, short walk to everything happening downtown

Located in Sarasota's first and oldest neighborhood, quaint Laurel Park is walking distance to everything downtown.and very short drive or bike ride to beaches

It wis very quiet and private. The backyard is large, completely enclosed with a beautiful 6' wooden fence. Lush and tropical with backyard furniture, patio table for eating, remote working, or reading. Grills, beach chairs, enclosed washer and dryer... It's a beautiful slice of old Florida for the sole use of the two apartments and your guests. You won't want to leave.

**There is a downstairs apartment that you can find if you click on my profile or scroll to the bottom of the page

***Please know…VRBO, and all rental sites, are the middlemen that bring us together and they do a great job. But no guest ever pays me, you’re paying them. So if there’s ever questions about your payments or insurance you would call them. Once you book they give you my info and you’re always welcome to message me.

Great host and neighborhood
We booked last minute for a lacrosse tournament in the area. Christie was very responsive and accommodating throughout our stay. We arrived very late at night and she was kind enough to have some snacks for my daughter upon arrival. The neighborhood was very cool and many places to eat within a short distance. Good experience all around.

Just book this one! You've found best place!
What an awesome, cute, wonderful place! It's on the second floor with windows all around, so it's like being in one of those ranger stations! The property (as well as the ones surrounding) is beautiful, and relaxing. It's within walking distance to so many great restaurants, galleries, etc. We loved it and would recommend it to anyone who wants a great place to stay while in Sarasota!

Short but sweet stat
My stay was cut short by concerns about the weather, but my brief visit was lovely and restful. Christie was an excellent host who communicated well both before and during my stay. Directions were clear, and the property is clean and in a very nice neighborhood. I went for a walk in the morning and really liked the shaded sidewalks (especially in the August heat and humidity), and the other people I met up with were friendly. I would definitely stay here on future visits to Sarasota.

2nd stay at Christie’s bright and clean upstairs apartment! This is such a convenient location to walk and explore all of Sarasotas downtown restaurants. The new Bayrunner shuttle makes getting to Lido Beach for an early morning walk so easy too. Fun trip!

Clean, well-lighted place
Our apartment has wonderful light, which comes in from three sides, yet the sense of privacy is excellent. The bed is comfortable, and the neighborhood is charming. Christie, our host, could not have been more friendly and accommodating. We had a great time.

A really nice unit. The kitchen was a little dated but functional. The bathroom was recently renovated. The host, Christie, was very easy to deal with and responsive. We will stay here again next time we’re in Sarasota!

A Great Host!
Other VRBO hosts should take a note from Christie. Her check-out instruction were, "Don't do a thing. It's your vacation and we'll take care of everything". Other hosts usually have a long list of things you need to do before you leave which always makes me wonder what the cleaning fees are for! This unit has so many windows which make it light and cheerful and ceiling fans and a good A/C that keep it nice and cool, even in late July. The neighborhood is great for dog walking and there is a park nearby with a nice shady trail. We hope to return to enjoy some more great food at Yoder's, The Columbia, and Das Dutchman.

Relaxed Escapade
Went to Sarasota to attend the Ballet and stayed four nights at this very charming property. The place was clean, the kitchen well-stocked (even though it did not have teaspoons), the neighborhood was walkable and full of properties ranging from the bohemian to the almost grand; a cozy, friendly, and artsy enclave near restaurants and other amenities, close to Laurel Park. My favorite feature of the property was the wrap-around windows that made one feel suspended among the trees and gave it a chic European flavor. Some of the furnishings showed signs of minor wear, but not anything that would detract from the overall impression of being clean and taken care of. I did not meet the owner in person, but true to her messages, she was very available. I requested an extra set of linen, and it was delivered and left at the door promptly while we were away. Wish I could have stayed longer. I would consider staying here again when in Sarasota.
