About this property

Putt 'n Plunge Paradise: 3/2 House 10 mins to Downtown & 15 mins to Lido Beach

Welcome to Putt 'n Plunge Paradise – Your Ultimate Sarasota Escape!

Just 15 minutes from Sarasota’s world-famous beaches, Putt & Plunge Paradise is more than a stay—it’s a whole backyard experience. Perfect for families, friend getaways, couples retreats, or even business trips, this stylish pet-friendly 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a private oasis packed with fun, relaxation, and coastal vibes.

**This listing was previously a 1/1 guest suite so some reviews refer to it as that. It is redone now to include the whole house**

What You'll Love:

The Backyard:

-6 hole putting green - featuring pet-friendly turf and undulations for perfecting your short game while you're away!

-6 person fire pit - featuring a smokeless Breeo fire pit, complete with the grilling grate. S'mores supplies and roasting sticks provided!

-6 person hot tub – Hotsprings hot tub that also has an optional 7th person seat

-Cold plunge tub - chilled to 41 degrees for ultimate pain relief (and challenge!)

-Lounge areas and outdoor string lights to provide cozy lighting in the evening (and allows for nighttime putting!)

-Fully-fenced backyard, perfect for private sunning and for keeping the dogs contained and safe!

-Dirt-free backyard for a clean, comfortable outdoor experience!

-Propane grill for nights in


Inside the Home:

-3 king sized beds complete with new Helix mattresses (sleeps up to 6)

-Queen sleeper sofa in master bedroom to allow for additional sleeping (up to 2 adults)

-2 full bathrooms with walk-in showers

-Fully stocked kitchen

-Indoor and outdoor dining areas

-Lighting fast wifi & smart TVs

-Washer and dryer, making longer stays and family vacations much easier

-Beach gear included! 6 beach chairs, beach umbrella, beach towels & cooler bag available to make beach-going as convenient as possible!

-Walking distance to Pinecraft

-Short distance away from Arlington Park


The Space:

After a recent revamp of this listing to include the main living space plus the backyard, we are delighted to present Putt 'n Plunge Paradise! Every inch of this space was thoughtfully updated with creating the best vacation experience in mind: from the 6 hole putting green to the hot tub to the cold plunge to being in an excellent central location, this house has everything but the pool!

This unique 3/2 house is located along a quiet, dead-end street, so there is very little traffic and street noise from Bahia Vista Street cannot be heard. In fact, most of the homes located along this street are actually vacant most of the year as they tend to be second homes for individuals from out of state.

The living space is classily decorated with nods to Sarasota throughout, boasting 3 king-sized beds in each bedroom, a new and comfortable 8 person leather sectional, and a spacious covered-and-screened-in lanai that provides additional outdoor seating, an outdoor dining area, and a large 75" TV that is visible from the hot tub.

The hot tub is also covered with a pergola, making day-time soaking in the shade much more comfortable and night-time soaking much more cozy (pergola is equipped with an outdoor light).

Most listings do not feature a cold plunge tub, so this is a rare amenity to be had! The cold plunge is deliberately not covered as it is much more comfortable to soak in the plunge while the lovely Florida sun shines on your face and keeps whatever is not in the water very warm :)

The spacious backyard was very intentionally made to be dirt-free: the large putting green has pet-friendly turf (meaning pets are free to relieve themselves on the turf as there are pet deodorizers under the turf) and the rest of the backyard is fully concreted. This clean outdoor environment plus fully-fenced area makes sunning in complete privacy possible as well as super clean! A propane grill is also added to perfect the outdoor vacation experience!

Board games and puzzles are also available! In fact, a large puzzle board is also available for the puzzle enthusiasts out there (upon request)!

A keypad lock is equipped on 2 of the 3 outdoor doors to allow for easy self-check in.

This property is a non-smoking, non-vaping property and does not allow parties. Please note, this property is located in a friendly and welcoming neighborhood and, although it is a vacation destination, it's home to other people. As such we ask that you respect their privacy and their right to a peaceful existence! Quiet hours for this property are from 9pm to 9am to be in compliance with the Sarasota noise ordinance regulation.

Perfect stay!

Beautiful property and great location! Just like the pictures and centrally located to everything. We spent time on Siesta Key, Longboat Key, Anna Maria, and Venice, all within a short drive. Spent most mornings at nearby beautiful Arlington park, walking our dog and playing at the dog park. The unit very comfortable and spacious; great layout with the barn door separating the kitchen, lots of hooks, ample plug ins, WiFi, cable, ceiling fan and thermostat both with remotes. The kitchen sink/counter also serves as the bathroom sink/vanity but it wasn’t a problem. The unit was surprisingly private and quiet despite proximity to owners (they were pleasant but we barely saw them, which was perfect). Had our own parking spot and private entrance. Loved the fenced in patio to hang out with our dog. Erinn was very easy to communicate with and has thought of every detail, providing an abundance of linens including beach towels, everything needed to cook meals including spices, and plenty of paper products, soap, etc. She even left us some wine and dog treats! We would stay here again and highly recommend it.
