This home is perfect for extended families to all stay together on one property with separate living spaces. It also has a solar heated pool and boat dock on Dona Bay in Nokomis, FL. This home is on a quiet cul de sac on a large private lot, approximately 1 mile to Nokomis Beach / Casey Key, and close to Sarasota beaches, numerous golf courses, water sports, and attractions.

This is the perfect rental for extended families to get together. We have families come from all over the globe to enjoy the home with beautiful sunset views, the weather, the beach, and many activities available in the area.

The home sleeps 6 in the main house plus 5 in the apartment and is all on one floor (no stairs). The location is ideal - away from the traffic congestion of Sarasota, with easy access to I-75 via the Route 681 spur. It is an easy, short drive to downtown Sarasota and very close to quaint, downtown Venice, which was recently listed as one of the best seaside towns in the U.S. by Coastal Magazine. Siesta Key beach, which has been consistently rated as one of the top beaches in the world, is a 20 minute drive.

Guests can boat, kayak, paddleboard, or fish from the private boat dock. Kayaks and a paddle board are available for guest use with a signed liability waiver, which is part of the rental agreement.

The area has many nice biking routes and the nearby Legacy Trail is recommended for biking, roller blading, running, and walking. There are also equestrian facilities nearby and Benderson Park, the world class rowing facility, is an easy 25-30 min. drive. Multiple ball parks are in the area for Spring Training baseball enthusiasts.

This home has been totally redesigned and renovated by an internationally recognized architect. It features a large open space kitchen/family room with granite countertops, updated appliances, including a free-standing ice-maker, microwave, and Keurig coffee maker. The floors are polished terrazzo marble throughout and there are options for both inside and outside dining. The home is well insulated and has nice views of Dona Bay. All finishes are high quality and the home is well equipped and very clean.

The spacious bedrooms include a primary bedroom with queen bed, en-suite bath with both shower and tub, and glass doors to the lanai and water views.

The studio apartment has a separate entrance and private screened lanai with water views, a queen bed, bunk beds with a trundle bed, en-suite bath, and kitchenette, and is ideal for large families and guests. A baby pack 'n play are also available.

A full-size washer and dryer are conveniently located in the attached 2-car garage and available to both the house and apartment. There is plenty of parking space in the garage and driveway for multiple cars and your boat trailer.

The home is completely furnished with comfortable furniture, 60" high-definition smart TV, and many amenities, including WiFi. Guests can enjoy the solar-heated pool and dine on the screened lanai while watching the beautiful sunsets over the bay. A gas grill is also available. This home is well stocked and very comfortable for families, multi-families or as a corporate rental.

This location is easily accessible to Sarasota airport (40 min drive), Tampa (1 hr. 15 min), or Ft. Myers/Southwest Regional (1 hr. 15 min) airports. Orlando attractions are an easy 2 hour drive away.

Fun, clean, and open beach house that is perfect for large family gatherings and located right on Lyon’s Bay.

Wonderful waterfront getaway vacation home!

We had such an enjoyable time staying at this beautiful place overlooking Lyon's Bay. We enjoyed relaxing by the pool, boating, kayaking, swimming, and fishing. We saw lots of dolphin, pelicans, osprey, and manatee while out on the waterway. And the owners were wonderful hosts, sharing information about the area as we watched a gorgeous sunset together. We hope to return someday soon!!

Wonderful Home

This home was everything we could have wanted for our month long winter escape!! The location on the bay gave us the opportunity to see egrets, herons, pelicans, dolphins and more. As it is located in a quiet neighborhood just north of Venice, we had the opportunity to enjoy offerings from both Venice and the Sarasota area. Easy access to all beaches in the area. The home is the best equipped home we have ever rented. The beds are very comfortable. It has a large kitchen and a large seating area for dining as well. The pool was wonderful as it overlooks the bay. We had our daughter and two little grandchildren for a week and we never felt crowded .

Overall good stay

Overall a very nice stay. Very quiet and relaxing. The house is spacious with an detached apartment. Issues: Note on thermostat not to turn below 76° due to some kind of issue (not a new note). This can be a problem in Florida considering it’s very hot. There was used soap left in the showers. AC for detached apartment had clogged filter and AC did not work until we cleaned the filter

Terrible unacceptable issues

We checked in on Feb 1 for 28 days. Owner said there was a power surge on 12/25, that “fried” the washer and dryer. We had MANY electrical issues (“fried” instant hot water heaters for 2 of the 3 baths, barely cooling refrigerator- repairman said motor “fried”, solar pump controller for pool “fried”- owner showed us burnt black controller box). Since owner stated that an issue occurred in Dec, we would have liked the electrical issues to have been reviewed prior to our stay. We only had one shower that had hot water for the first 17 days of our stay. There were 6 of us staying in a home with 3 full baths. The fridge was not cold. Owner said we didn’t have settings correct. It was still warm. After a week, a repairman said it needed a new motor. We did not have a cold fridge till day 10. Coming from up north, we really wanted a heated pool, but because of the electrical issue, and the owner not resetting the timer correctly, we only had 1 day of use in the pool. Cleanliness- DISCUSSTING. Baseboards, kitchen door curtain, grill, toaster oven, couch (really gross amount of filth between cushions). Bikes- in disrepair. Chains rusty, handle grips cracked and chunks missing, brakes barely held, deflated tires). Heat in adjacent apartment was out for 2 nights that were in the mid-forties. Location was great, problems unacceptable. We did get a refund for 1 of the 4 weeks we stayed. Not sure if this made up for cold showers and warm fridge. BEWARE of this property.
