Loved my stay!

I spent three months at La Dolce Vita and loved every minute of it. The owner was approachable, very generous, leaving many items like spices and cleaning supplies etc. The condo is very attractive, nice neighbors, and having the pool so close by was a treat.

La Dolce Vita is Perfect in so many ways!!

I have stayed in many locations on the west coast of Florida and this is by far the best. It was very important for my winter stay of 3 months to find a condo that would allow my dog and that the location was ideal for taking long walks with him ...this could not have been a better location. I always felt comfortable and safe walking about the Key whether I was walking to the Village, the beach or in the quite neighborhoods. There is a beautiful tree lined private road that leads to the shell beach where there are lounge chairs, small tables and chaise lounges for sunbathing, dolphin watching and absolutely gorgeous sunsets. There is also the pier for fishing and a small horseshoe sand beach. The condo itself was the perfect size for me and I love all of the full wall sliding glass doors that make the condo seem even bigger than what it is. I had everything I could possibly need and Rebecca was the best to work with. I plan on coming back for 4 month 2020/2021 - I'm so excited, it's an awesome place to stay on the Key!

Great Getaway

Rebecca was so easy to work with. We had everything we could think of and more in the condo. If you like to fish, this is the place to stay. It's a little further from the public beach access than I would like but we were able to have our dog on the premises and the pool was eight outside our door. We also enjoyed front row seats to the 4rh of July fireworks.

Would Recommend to Anyone

We absolutely loved staying at Dolce Vita! The unit itself is spacious and beautiful! The bedroom opens right up to the pool so that was a great bonus! The unit came with everything we needed and our dog loved staying here as well! The complex is lovely and just a short walk to the fishing pier for dolphin sightings and beautiful sunsets. Dolce Vita's location is perfect and with just a short walk to Siesta Village and the ocean, you really don't even need a car to enjoy Siesta Key. We would definitely stay here again and Wendy was a great host!

Excellent Location

Cozy unit for one or two and the owner allows dogs! Convenient short walk to the village and just a little further to Siesta Beach. Within condo's property there is lush foliage and a short walk takes you gulf front with a fishing pier and gorgeous sunsets! Dolphins are often seen! Easy access to Sarasota using the North bridge with less traffic congestion. Ideal vacation location in paradise!

This was the best vacation my wife and i have ever had. A whole month, 100 yds from the beach, 100 yds from Siesta Village. It truly was paradise for 30+ days. The accommodations had everything we needed. We would definitely return again.

Another GREAT Stay at La Dolce Vita!

May 2013 was our third stay at La Dolce Vita. We enjoy the condo and surrounding area so much that we plan to try to visit at least every other year, if not more often. Wendy takes such good care of her place. It is not like renting a "hotel type condo", it is staying in someone's personal home. The fishing was good, so Danny was happy. The pool was warm and inviting, so I was happy. We look forward to many more visits in the future. Thanks so much, Wendy, for making your beautiful, peaceful condo available!
Response from VrboOwner on 26 March 2020
Dear Donna & Danny, So happy that you enjoyed your stay again. It is a pleasure to host you. You treat Dolce Vita as if it were your own home and always leave it so nice and clean. Thank you and all the best. Wendy

Everything You Need

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the condo. The proximity to the Siesta Key Village and the world famous Siesta Key Beach is very convenient. The private beach and pier are great for watching the beautiful sunsets or just hanging out. The amenities at the condo are great. Everything is there for you to enjoy your stay. One of the high points is walking out from the back door directly to the pool!

Another Great Stay!

This was our second time staying at La Dolce Vita. The condo is absolutely immaculate and decorated beautifully. We enjoyed being able to step out the door to the pool. A short, lovely 5 minute walk to the beach and pier is nice, too. Danny had success fishing every day. We cannot wait until our next opportunity to visit again. Many blessings to you, Wendy! Thanks so much for making this piece of paradise available!

Perfect location

We couldn't have asked for a better location - close to the Village, the beach and a fishing pier. The condo was well maintained and equipped. We could tell that Wendy loves her place, and we were pleased to be able to enjoy it for the month of January.

We have spent Jan. & Feb. at La Dolce Vita for the last two years. We find it to be a very pleasant location to spend the cold months. Neighbours are great and it is in a beautiful area--very close to the gulf and Siesta Village.

Hi, Wendy! We had such a wonderful time staying at Sandy Cove! Your condo was perfect! We loved the decor and all of the "comforts of home". It truly felt like being at home away from home. Siesta Key is such a beautiful place. It was a blessing to be able to stay at your place for 2 months. La Dolce Vita - yes!
