River Starnd Condo

Property was in great shape! Family room and kitchen have a beautiful lake and golf course view. Condo was well-stocked with all the basic necessities and beds were very comfortable. Jay the owner was very responsive to a few minor repairs needed and even stopped over one morning to chat. The amenities at River Strand were top notch and all professionally managed.

Great Condo

Property manager was outstanding. He was very prompt on responses/communications. This condo provides a serene atmosphere. Truly enjoyed the sunsets overlooking the waterway and golf course. My 7 month stay was very relaxing. The condo is located to all the conveniences that one would need. Anyone that gets to stay here will truly appreciate the activities and onsite comforts of tennis/golf/pickle ball/pools/tiki bar/restaurant. Jay appreciate everything your condo has to offer.Cheers

Fabulous Stay At River Strand

We had a great 2 month stay at River Strand. Jay was an excellent host & very responsive. Condo was well equipped. Beautiful lanai overlooking the Estuary golf course and large pond/lake. Birds were plentiful and we loved sitting out looking at the wildlife. Great golf (although pricey) and Pickleball. Satellite pool very close and nice. Highly recommend this lovely condo.

Ideal für Golf

River Strand hat 3x9 gepflegte Golfplätze, im Dezember gibt es noch Teetimes nach Wunsch. Schön ist auch die grosse Poolanlage. Die Wohnung ist ok, etwas altmodisch eingerichtet, die Küche mit viel zu viel unnützen Utensilien voll gestopft. Die Fenster hätten eine gründliche Reinigung nötig.

Very Accommodating!

This is a great place and great location for a wonderful and relaxing getaway. We actually were staying there during Hurricane Ian and although we were told to evacuate, we really had nowhere to go. The unit felt so secure and we were never without services. The owner could not have been nicer to deal with and went out of his way to make sure we had a most pleasant stay. The clubhouse restaurant was an added bonus. Food was always very good, and the convenience was priceless. Looking forward to going back when time allows! We miss the warmth and sunshine.

Happy In River Side

Jay is an awesome host. Quick to respond to all your needs. The condo is beautiful and decorated very nice. Great screened in Lanai for morning coffee or afternoon drinks. Close to pools and he provides bikes and beach chairs for the beach. Plenty of closet space in both bedrooms. 3 TV's. Kitchen is well stocked for all your cooking needs. Will definitely stay here again when in Florida. The community has a great clubhouse with 2 restaurants and a great bar. The main pool has a Tiki bar which serves awesome food and drinks. The 2 gyms are big and have everything you need.

This property was a beautiful location to spend the winter away from the snow. We really enjoyed sitting on the lanai, watching the world go by. We had a few concerns when we arrived, but the owner, Jay, worked with us to ensure that our concerns were addressed and that we had everything we needed to make our stay wonderful.

Talk about feeling like you're at home!

Awesome vacation experience at River Strand Golf & Country Club

Over the month of December 2017 I had the opportunity at staying in Jay's condo in the River Strand Golf & Country club gated community. It was an awesome expereince and highly recommend it. Jay's place was clean, well kept, had all the items I needed, included access to the golf club and a beautiful view of the 7th fairway, plus an incredible view of a pond with tons of wildlife. As a community, River Strand was awesome!! People were very friendly, was easy to get games of golf on my own and connect with some great guys (made several new friends). The pool and tiki bar is wonderful and the actual golf course (3 different 9 holes) was sufficiently challenging. And, there is lots to do besides just golf e.g. tennis, dinning experiences, nature walks, etc. River Strand has easy access from either Tampa airport or Sarasota airport ... close to attractions, shopping, etc. All in all a great month and thanks to Jay (for hosting his condo), plus all the great staff at River Strand Golf club. Cheers, David

Great property

Owner was most accommodating. Everything is in the unit that you could possibly need. Great furnishings and clean. View from the screened lanai is fantastic (water and golf view). Will be coming back in April for another month and hopefully again in the fall. Highly recommend this property. Golf and amenities at the club are great. Met some really great people during our stay as well. Tom & Colette

We had stayed here for 2 months while our house was being built. Jay was SO accommodating to my family. The condo was absolutely beautiful! Very clean & updated appliances with granite countertops. LOVED sitting on the lanai which over looks the lake & watching the colorful sunsets just about every night. I would give staying at Jay's condo 5 stars!!!! He definitely made it stress free while staying here while our house was being built. THANK YOU SO MUCH JAY!!!

Nicely appointed, great views.

The River Strand development is a great place to vacation. With a large swimming pool, a resistance pool and Tiki bar alongside the well equipped exercise/fitness saloon, it's a great place to work-out or relax. The pro-golf shop staff are super helpful and the 27 hole golf course is always a challenge, however often you play it. There are a number of satellite swimming pools where you can always go if you want a quieter swim as they seem to be hardly used. The apartment has great views of the lake, from the kitchen, lounge and balcony. You can watch the golfers tee off from the other side of the lake or marvel at the color of sunsets in the evenings. It is comfortable and tastefully decorated and well equipped, really wanting for nothing. We found the owner, Jay to be most considerate and helpful during our stay! You can't really go wrong staying here.

About the host

Hosted by Jay

Host profile image
A few years ago I came to River Strand for a vacation with a friend who is a real estate agent in Southern California. She fell in love with its beautiful facilities and resort-like life style and the next day bought two condos. At the time I lived in New Jersey recently retired from thirty years as a Broadway stage manager. Finally this year I sold my house near Princeton and moved to Fort Meyers - to be near friends. All that time I had been thinking about River Strand and recently I was able to purchase this condo. The pictures you see were taken by real estate people after renovations done by the seller. By the time you arrive, I will have had the chance to add amenities and accessories to make the condo even more comfortable and homey. One other thing. On that trip a few years ago, I picked up a golf club for the first time after watching the game played on TV. That doesn’t look too hard, I thought. Soo, if you play the wonderful 27 holes at River Strand and run out of balls just check any deep rough - I have contributed a considerable number of balls there on subsequent visits. I look forward to meeting you and will do my best to make your stay enjoyable.

Why they chose this property

Having rented at River Strand myself I am confident that the excellence of its facilities and the variety of its surrounding activities will satisfy your every expectation. However, it is my goal as your host to go above and beyond that - to make your stay as close to perfect as possible by providing whatever your need or want: personal recommendations for massage therapists, babysitters, hair and nail salons, tour guides, boat rentals, restaurants, gas stations, super markets,, doctors, dentists, hospitals and more. I promise to be available to answer any question you may have. and to respond promptly to your requests.

What makes this property unique

Resort hotels are great but can't compare with having a cozy home in a country club community - a home away from home - with multiple rooms, a kitchen and a veranda on which to watch the sunset. You don't pay extra for internet, it's included. You don't have to rent bikes. They're included. You don't have to pay to park. It's included. And the folks you will meet are a wonderful mix of travelers and locals who have villas or houses in River strand.
