Comfortable, clean, convenient.

My husband, 3 kids and I stayed here and loved it! Marisa and Dennis went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. It had everything you would need for a great vacation. They put a lot of thought and care into this rental and we appreciated so much. It was very spacious and less than 15 minutes to Siesta Key. The neighborhood was very quiet, but also really close to restaurants and activities. We would absolutely stay here again!

Home away

The house was perfect for our family. The communication with the host was easy and they were very kind. The backyard is absolutely stunning at night. The house is fully stocked with sheets, blankets, towels, soaps/shampoos and first aide kit. The beds were perfect and comfortable. Very easy to get to the beach. We will be happily looking to stay again next year! Thank you for the amazing stay.

Clean! Cool! Inviting!

We were provided a 4-digit code of OUR choosing for keyless entry. (Very handy for larger groups.) We were surprised to find a lovely welcome gift on the table. Every room was exceptionally clean & tidy. The kitchen had all the accouterments one would need to cook any meal. The bedrooms had extra blankets & pillows. The beds were very comfortable. (This is HUGE! We are both wives of chiropractors & can vouch for the quality of the mattresses.) Towels were provided for bath AND beach. Beach chairs, pool noodles, sand pails, and toys were in the garage. We arrived the second week in May to 10 straight sunny days of 80- 90 degrees. Though it was warm, there was always a breeze outside. The AC worked very well and kept us cool inside. Marisa and Dennis were great hosts. Tho we had no problems, they responded promptly and were quite helpful when messaged. The neighborhood was very quiet, close to everything, & easily accessible to major thoroughfares. We attended the Ringling Art Museum (FREE ADMISSION to the Art building & Glass Gallery on Mon.) The beaches we visited were Siesta Key, Crescent, Venice, Manasota, & Lido, which were between 18 mins to 30 mins away with FREE Parking. The pool, 1/2 mile away, is clean & refreshing.Those in attendance were respectful of others.We highly recommend "Get to the Beach" house & will stay again in a heartbeat! Kim M. & Holly B.

Highly recommend!

This villa was perfect for us. It's an easy ride to the beaches, we liked Lido beach the best. House has EVERYTHING you could possibly need, from beach chairs, toys, towels to a fully stocked kitchen. Owners live next door and they are very friendly when you see them, but we didn't see them often. This was our second stay at this villa and we were just as happy this time. We had our two small dogs with us and the fenced in yard was great. You won't be disappointed if you choose to stay here.

Great place to stay!

We enjoyed our stay. It was so nice for the dogs having the yard. Well lit at nighttime. Took the dogs to the dog beach near Venice. Walked them around Urfer Family Park. We walked the dogs around the neighborhood and it was very nice and quiet area. For us humans it was perfectly located to travel to see many sites. Venice, Punta Gorda, Siesta Key and Casey Key. We met Dennis the owner who lives right next door. Very convenient, very nice man. Thank you Dennis and Marissa so much for the opportunity to have a place to stay with our furry kids.

Wonderful Place to Stay!

My mother, cousin, and I stayed here for a short vacation. It was in a perfect location; near the beach, shopping, restaurants, and sight seeing. This rental is well stocked with necessities including beach chairs and umbrella! Beds were comfortable and towels were soft! The garage was nice to keep our car in! The owners were awesome and quick to respond. Only thing wrong was we could not stay longer. I would definitely recommend this place and would stay there again!

Delightful accommodations

The house was spacious, clean and very well supplied. Location was great with easy access to both Siesta Key beach and Lido Beach. The beach chairs provided were great. Lots of good restaurants and shopping close by. Dunkin Donuts just around the corner for quick easy coffee. Hosts were great and easy to communicate with. This house was very well supplied and had everything you need. Hoping that next time we are in the area that this place will be available for a longer stay!

Short and sweet

We lived in Sarasota for many years and have only been gone a cpl years when we went back to visit family. Short Stay, easy to get around. We never went to beach as it was not that type of visit. The home has all the things you would need for a beach trip ( chairs, cooler, towels, etc). Plenty room for family and owners live next door for any issues so quick fixes on issues are certain. Owners never intrude in any manner. Patio is great, we did a dinner out there

Best Vacation ever!

When we finally got to our destination my husband said go inside and turn on some lights to see around the minute I walked in I felt like I was at home what a charming place they have and the pictures on the VRBO website was exactly as pictured every room had a touch of Florida with pictures and the items in each room. Their rental was so cozy and I loved the backyard it was so perfect for our fur babies Duke & Marlie enjoyed so very much they loved to run around and for us to sit outside in the morning to have our coffee and also in the evening to unwind from the trips to Siesta Key which is the best white sand beach we walked along the beach to get some real beauty shells. We also visited Venice, Nokomis, Turtle Beach and so many more the restaurants close by were amazing our favorite little spot for Breakfast was Tasty Home Cooking just around the corner they treat you like family there. It was great to meet Marisa & Dennis they are such awesome people they made sure they didn’t forget a thing you really didn’t need to bring anything it was nice to have use of the beach chairs and beach towels like I said before I truly hope that they will let us stay again for our next trip we just loved how close everything was to the house. Marisa & Dennis you are awesome and hope you will let us come back again I really didn’t want to leave. Thanks Pam & Jeff 😎🌴

Fantastic stay

We couldn’t have been happier with our stay. First off Marisa and Dennis were amazing. They were very responsive, helpful and we honestly couldn’t have asked for better hosts. We enjoyed everything about our stay but some of our top favorites were it was a great place for a family with kids, it was close to everything-especially the beaches, the hosts were some of the best we have ever had and it had a fenced yard for our dog. It was also very clean, well kept and had everything we needed for trips to the beach and just in general. We highly recommend this place.
