Family Vacation

By far the best property we have stayed at for our family vacations to the beach. We enjoyed the pool and patio area to relax and enjoy the view. Saw dolphins in the bay and various birds. Close to restaurants and beaches which we enjoyed.

Can’t Beat This Bayside Retreat!

We had such a great time staying here! The house was the perfect size for our group of 8 — super comfortable and had everything we needed. The pool area and outdoor kitchen were amazing and quickly became our favorite spot to hang out. You can’t beat the water views this home has, especially at sunset! The host was very quick to respond and so helpful with any questions we had. Thank you for a wonderful stay!!

Great house

This house was the perfect size for our 12 family members… and it was right on Sarasota Bay. Kayaks and paddle boards were available which we all loved!! Different people fished everyday and poles and tackle were provided. The very spacious patio had a beautiful pool and a large area to play corn hole which my family loved. The owner was VERY accessible and answered all my questions immediately…. It was a wonderful stay!

Beautiful Home

This is one of the most beautiful homes I've had the opportunity to stay in. The water views, pool area, landscaping, and surrounding feel like paradise. I often notice that houses look better in photos than real life but this house was the opposite. It's even better in person! The hosts were very responsive (responded almost immediately) and helpful. Their check-out requirements are very reasonable and easy. We had a great combination of fun, serenity, and rejuvenation during our stay. Thank you!

Beautiful Weekend.

We had an amazing stay at your guys home. Thank you so much for going out of your way to allow us in a day early to decorate. Your home is amazing and so accommodating for a family. The baby gate and the high chair were much appreciated. Also the well stocked kitchen and beautiful outdoor kitchen were amazing. Also we were worried about the pool being warm because of the colder weather but the heater must have been working over time because the pool was nice and warm. We had a blast and will definitely be back again. Thanks so much for everything and the great communication!!!!!!

Fabulous home

Eight of us celebrated my mom’s 90th birthday for 4 days and this home was perfect. The outdoor space is fabulous…so many different areas to hang out. The home is very well equipped from sheets, towels, beach towels, toilet paper, games. It’s really got everything. We had a private chef come and do the birthday dinner. The kitchen is open and spacious with a huge dining table so great spot for the chef and us the rest of the week. Marianne was so responsive to a couple of my questions and so easy to work with. We all had such a wonderful time and wholeheartedly recommend a stay at this home.

The home itself was absolutely stunning and had a beautiful setup for a relaxing trip. We really enjoyed the property and appreciated how responsive the host was when we reached out with questions.However, there were a few issues during our stay that made the experience more frustrating than expected. The pool was unfortunately not heated, and despite trying to troubleshoot it during our stay, we were unable to get it working, so we weren’t able to enjoy the pool. Due to the current drought conditions and low water levels, we also could not use the paddle boards as advertised.We also had ongoing issues with the TV/WiFi connection and were unable to stream or watch the playoff hockey game we had planned to watch during the trip. When we asked for assistance, the troubleshooting guidance provided unfortunately did not resolve the issue.While the property itself is beautiful, I do think the overall guest experience could be improved with better property management, maintenance support, and communication style from the host throughout the stay.

There were seven of us that stayed at the house. It exceeded our expectations! One of the biggest things for us is how private it was. The side closest to the pool has no residence, just trees and wildlife. The other side had a home. The one time we went out to the dock to take pictures, the neighbors went inside to not bother us. It is hot in Florida during June!! We spent the majority of our time in the pool. We were grateful for the umbrellas that could be set up around the pool to help provide shade. Our grocery shopping was done on day one, so there was no reason to leave the house. My favorite memories are the nights that our grown-up kids cooked dinner with their friends. We sat around the island, laughing and talking. Lunches were fun using the outdoor kitchen to grill and gather. I enjoyed being able to wash the beach towels and have them ready to go for the next day. It wasn't necessary because they were plenty of towels, but I enjoyed doing it. One morning the girls did Pilates on the dock. One evening we ventured to Longboat Key Island to grab some appetizers and drinks. Our grown-up kids traveled from California and Texas to meet us here. It is definitely something we all want to do again! It was very easy to access entry into the home. You do need to read the little book they leave you so you know how to keep the doors from blowing open. Once we figured that out, everything was perfect! Thank you so much for having us!
