The property was perfect for our family Christmas. We travel to FL each year to spend the holiday with my brother and my parents and cousins who all live around FL. We like to pick a place that has great amenities to keep young kids and teens entertained. This place was perfect. The host was easy to contact and responded asap. The kitchen was amazing for our family to cook a large meal and eat together as well as play games. The yard was so much more than expected. The beds were comfortable and we had plenty of room for everyone. The location was so close to amazing teaches. I would 100% recommend this home and I definitely plan to rebook here.

Beautiful home in a great location, was very clean and had everything we needed. Only a few miles from downtown Sarasota that we were able to easily take an Uber to and from. The heated pool was amazing and it was the perfect little getaway spot. The only thing is we were unable to get any of the outdoor string lights to work, but that was a minor detail in an otherwise great stay.

We loved the house! Very clean and comfy. My only complaint is it’s a little dark inside, and not enough light to get the house bright inside. But other than that, beds were nice. Lots of room and kids loved the pool.

When we arrived the home was beautiful. Very spacious and welcoming. Kitchen area was perfect for a small gathering. Plenty of activities for the kids to enjoy including the pool. Have to see it for yourself the pictures do not show the beauty of this house. I would definitely re book and recommend. Nice quiet neighborhood.

We live on the Keys and needed a higher ground place for our family and neighbor to ride out the hurricane. This is lovely home provided the refectory place for the five of us to comfortably rest. It was well equipped, with plenty of room for us to be together and to have quiet time. The hosts were very helpful as we moved our things back and forth. Made the whole situation easy! The pool and screened patio was a wonderful place to relax and the neighborhood was friendly and accessible. Definitely a place we will we return!

We had a wonderful time at this property. The home is even bigger and better in person. The bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. We appreciated the large kitchen for cooking and entertaining the whole family. The pool was fantastic and we enjoyed playing darts and corn hole. The beautiful beach was only 20 minutes away. My family loved it, 10/10 recommend and would come back again. Nannette was so sweet and accommodating, my grandmother forgot some things there and she was kind enough to mail it to me.

The house and location were perfect for our family getaway, felt so welcoming. We have children, the youngest 4 years to 10 years and they settled in right away to their bedroom with the bunkbeds and later discovered the closet with games. Honestly, we all lived the house and amenities. The pool was so inviting, especially when the Florida sun decided to peek its' head out. The kitchen was amply supplied with appropriate tools fo prepare meals. There are grocery stores nearby includin a Target. Just a few miles from the beaches and downtown Sarasota, with the interstate minutes from the house. The pool was inviting with plenty of towels, and outdoor activities. The host Nanette responded within minutes to our questions that we posted on the app. This is definitely on our list for a future stay. THANK YOU!

Our family had a great time in this property. The house looks great in the inside and the pool its salt water which makes it better. My suggestion is that you guys put better pictures because in the website you dont appreciate how nice the house is.
