We had a wonderful stay at this cozy cottage in Sarasota. It was spotless, comfortable, and perfectly located—just minutes from Siesta Key and close to downtown for great dining and shopping. The neighborhood was peaceful, and the cottage had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. We would definitely stay here again!

Location was great! The main house was nice unfortunately the back porch, yard and outside of house is in disrepair. Kitchen supplies and towels were minimal. This could be an excellent home, but felt with these issues it was overpriced.

The host was easy to communicate with, accommodating, and prompt with communication. There was an issue with the hot water. The host quickly responded quickly to assist with the issue. It would have helped to have details on how to deal with this common issue in the guest instructions. The property was in a great location - near beaches, restaurants, etc. The property does need a deep cleaning, general maintenance needs to be addressed, and the kitchen needs to be restocked with key essentials (utensils, basic cooking items). The back porch could not be used because the screens were broken and just generally unkept. The house's layout was great and the beds were very comfortable.

There was only one washcloth in bathroom. No bathroom hand towels. When we went to throw the sheets in washer there was a load of what we think were towels or sheets left in dryer from previous guests stay. There were no paper towels in kitchen. Only one kitchen hand towel. Bathroom needed a good dusting. And the living room windows were dirty.

Property is close to eating, beaches and grocery. The house was fine for what we needed…just a place to sleep. Other than that, the property and home needed a lot of TLC and we feel it did not meet most vacation rental standards or expectations, especially in the Siesta Key area. Did not receive a check-in code, but host was very responsive.

Cottage close to Sietsa Key and Lido

Overall this home is in a convenient location to everything we wanted to do. The sectional couch with extra pillows was comfortable enough to sit and watch some TV, however the master bedrooms bed was pretty uncomfortable. And the exterior of the property needs a little TLC. The owner was easy to contact and very responsive.

On our last night before we were to head home, the AC stopped working. They were VERY quick to come and fix it. We had a good time talking with our host and her husband. This place will be recommended for sure! If we come back to Siesta Key, I will definitely reserve this cottage again! Thanks!

If I could give more than 5 I would. Description was accurate and just what we hoped for. On Siesta Drive, so it is a bit busy, but house is back off the road and we slept greatDiscovered a closet with beach chairs, umbrella, etc which made our trip even better! Would highly recommend!

Cozy home away from home

The beds are super comfortable and have everything you need for a comfortable stay. We loved all the left over beach gear that other guests have left over time. It was perfect for our beach day! It is a lived in cottage feel so nothing extremely fancy but truly cozy. Safe neighborhood and a quick drive to all areas. If I’m ever back in Sarasota, I will be renting again. Thank you, Sarah!

The home itself was located area that allowed easy access to all our destinations. Manager Sarah was available whenever we had questions. The fence in back yard broken down laying on the ground, neighbor peeking in the back where fence is down, we love the porch for morning breakfast, but the wind has damaged the screens on the porch much repair needed. All in all we enjoyed the cottage.
