About the host

Hosted by Maurizio

Host profile image
We are enjoy our home, Sarasota, life and people! The room that we offer was once the suite for Maurizio's parents when they came to visit from Italy. They are now too old to travel and we have had the pleasure to share our little bit of paradise with people from all over the world!

Why they chose this property

Location to all the best of Sarasota! A low-key, easy going host that will chat with you by the pool at sunset, or give you all the privacy you want. We will do our best to accommodate your needs but please review the property description so that you have a realistic expectation for your stay with us. Our perfect guest is looking for a place to relax after a busy day/ night of exploring Sarasota.

What makes this property unique

Attention to detail was brought to this home as the owner brings his Italian heritage to this home. Lush outdoor gardens. Security gated premises occupied by private owner. A quiet night after business meetings or a place to stay during season when attending the theaters, opera or symphony; walk to South Side Neighborhood for dining, music and gourmet markets. A pleasant stroll and you will find yourself at Selby Gardens and next to the bayfront and Marina Jacks.
