Fabulous getaway

We had an amazing time and what a lovely home. Not only is it decorated beautifully and charming, the beds were so comfortable! The backyard space was so unexpected, it’s prettier than the pictures. The host communicated great throughout the process. I’ve stayed at a lot of rentals throughout the years and this is definitely very high up on my list.

Great location and Comfortable

Four of us were celebrating our 58th college reunion. The house was very roomy and appointed well. The TV was a Roku with streaming platforms - very enjoyable.

weekend in Sarasota.

This was a yearly get together. The house location overall was good. Perhaps not walking distance to some places of interest (eg. Armand circle, downtown) but an easy drive. Having cold weather was a bit of a drag as it became more of an inside than outside weekend (eg .did not use the putting area outside and did not sit in the sun by the pool).
