When we first arrived, the pool was covered in algae. We missed out on an entire day of the pool which is one of the reasons we booked this home. Being a homeowner with a private pool, it was clear the pool had not been cleaned prior to our check in. The response was.. Tuesdays are the pool cleaning day. Trust me, that algae was not simply a week old. When we left Monday morning, the pool water was beautiful and clear. Also, 2 of the 3 trashcans in the garage were completely full from previous guests causing the entire garage to smell. I will say that Gosia was lovely and quick to respond. However, the solution to the trash was for me to wheel the trash to the curb myself. Not what a guest is expecting from VRBO. I have stayed in many homes with VRBO and let's just say this isn't what I nor family have come to expect. There was also no offer to compensate us for the uncleanliness and inconvenience. Architecturally, the home was lovely other than the bedroom doors to the master suite and one of the other bedrooms did not fit the frames and did not close properly.

The property was newly remodeled and impeccable. In a great location, easy access to interstate and other main roads. If three things would be corrected this would a great place. One the pool needs to be heated 24/7, if needed. Two, need to have basic cable, currently only options are streaming services if you have them, and three the smallest inconvenience, there was no way to light the fire pit unless you would have been a smoker or purchased your own BIC lighter. In my opinion if these three items are addressed, I would stay there again next year.

Overall a good experience, nice place to stay.

The house was beautiful and clean we definitely will reserve it again next year

We have rented many VRBO's over the years in the Sarasota area and this one, by far, was the best. Very clean, nicely furnished, newly remodeled with higher end appliances. Conveniently located to grocery stores, restaurants and I-75. We were blessed with 80+ degree weather in late February so the heated pool was a wonderful amenity. Great multi function shower heads in both baths and extra rolls of toilet paper. Hope to come back soon.

The house was lovely. It had everything I wanted. The hostess was very responsive to any questions. It was a very lovely stay
