Great property and one of the reasons we chose Sarasota again for our holiday. A great size pool and well equipped kitchen. It really feels like a home away from home.

Great place to experience Sarasota!
We stayed here for almost 5 weeks. This property was perfect for what we were there for. The location was great and central to many activities and beaches. We loved the very private pool area, and the mid century vibe of the house. We were here when hurrican Milton came through. Bill, the owner and Larry the property manager were very informative. We would definitely stay at this property again!

Cool MCM house with pool
Bill’s MCM house was a fun place to stay for my family during spring break. We had plenty of room to spread out and also have together time in the stylish great room. The home contained lots of MCM furniture and décor throughout which was right up our alley. The patio, gardens, and pool area was a dream. We spent lots of time hanging out and sunning ourselves in the beautiful backyard. The only downside was the pool waterfall wasn’t in working order so we were unable to enjoy it during our stay. When we wanted a change of scenery we hit the beach which was a short drive away. We loved the quiet neighborhood and appreciated that the house was on a dead end street to maximize that vibe. With that said, we had so much to see and do all within a short drive. As for areas of opportunity, the beds and pillows weren’t the most comfortable, but I admit I’m picky when it comes to these things. They were mostly fine, but a refresh would take this home to the next level. Also, I’m not a fan of wall to wall carpet which was in the main bedrooms, but again that’s my personal preference. I would still definitely recommend Bill’s place.

Brilliant - we loved it
One of the best places we have ever stayed. Very spacious and tastefully decorated we found everything we needed for our holiday. Great kitchen and pantry with lots of store cupboard basics to get you going. Comfy bedrooms and great showers! The property is very private and the pool and gadens were beautifully maintained. This was our first time in Sarasota and we found it very smart with lots of supermarkets, restaurants and stunning beaches. We found the prices of food etc expensive so would recommend trying Detwilers for fresh fruit, veg, meat and fish. Overall we absolutely loved the property and Sarasota in general. Also looking at a return visit in 2024. One point - for rainy days (there were a few in November) there are puzzles and games though be warned, one of the puzzles has a single piece missing. 😉

Honeymoon Hideaway
This property had everything we were desiring for our honeymoon. As avid mid century modern enthusiasts, we were overjoyed to find this listing, it did not disappoint. We had a minor snafu upon arrival/checking, but all was rectified. The worst part was having to leave. We would definitely stay here again.

This was our second stay at this property. It was just as lovely as the first time. Pool is fantastic! Really a great backyard too. It's a quick drive to the beach. Also close to grocery stores and restaurants. If you like to cook the kitchen is great too.

Highly recommended
This was our third annual stay at this home, and all three have been excellent. The landscaping, art, and design add to the charming, comfortable feel of the home, making it a true retreat. As before, the property manager (Larry) warmly greeted us on arrival and ensured we had a great stay. We definitely hope to return again next year.

Sarasota doesn't need to be all about the beach...
Absolutely charming little house in a quiet neighborhood in South Sarasota. The house is bright, cheerful and has a lap pool in the well landscaped backyard. The best seafood restaurant / market, a Trader Joes and great empanadas are within easy walking distance. We're coming back.

Paradise in Sarasota
This wonderful property gives the feeling of being at your own private resort. It was so easy to enjoy the outdoors, what with the heated pool and surrounding patio with recliners. So nice to transition to the covered patio area with the dining table and comfy sofa style seating. The home is lovely and convenient with open style kitchen, and the design is great with two entryways leading directly to a shower for a quick rinse off after the pool. We can't wait to return!

Exceptional in every way
The house is beautiful and the art is amazing. The pool setting is gorgeous with tropical foliage that is just a delight to see. The property has lawns and vegetation that is like a mini-botanical garden. The house is equipped with everything one needs. It is quiet. Close to all attractions: downtown, multiple beaches within minutes. Larry, the manager, is responsive and a nice guy. We have stayed at numerous VRBO properties and this is the nicest we have experienced.

Our Best VRBO rental!
We've rented many VRBO properties over the years and the whole family said this one is "the best!" It is clean, colorful, artsy, spacious, comfortable, private with large grounds full of lush gardens and vegetation whose growth adds to the privacy of the home. The house is well-appointed. The beds are comfortable. The lap pool was enjoyed by each of us and we wished we had time to enjoy it more. My wife and son enjoyed walking through the neighborhood for exercise. The area is quite safe, quiet and private. The home is centrally located in Sarasota so that Sarasota's many offerings can be quickly and easily accessed. Due to our busy agenda, we did not have time to cook. However, the kitchen accouterments to prepare any food one might desire. We would definitely want to stay at this property again the next time we visit "Grandma" in Sarasota. The owner, Wiburn, and property manager, Larry, are easy and delightful to work with. Thank you!

Why they chose this property

the house is part of the sarasota architectural heritage of modern homes. much of florida is a sort of faux mediterranean pastiche but this house has character and is casual and simple. it is also very private and the garden surrounding the pool is tranquil and lush.

What makes this property unique

on a quiet dead end street with little traffic but still very close even walkable to shopping restaurants and bikable to the beach.
