Lovely house!

We were very comfortable here and the owner was very responsive. Important to note that this house is only for a maximum of 3 guests which it says in the ad, but I did not notice initially. The second bedroom is a single with a desk which was convenient for us as my husband needed to work.

Alice and her home were fantastic. The unit was exactly what was outlined on the post. The home was very clean and cozy. We had one minor issue after hours that could have gone bad, but one of the neighbors saved the day. Overall we would stay here again on our next trip to Sarasota.

Exceptionally Clean and Quiet!!!

This property was just as described! My husband comment on the exceptional cleanliness of the home many times! The neighborhood is pristine, beautiful and quiet. It is like a quiet oasis in the middle of the city! Takes a few minutes to drive to places but it is well worth the money! We extended our stay and will return, although this gem is already booked for the season!!!! Craig & Gail

Quiet, greenery, wildlife, getaway

The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. I stayed there for 10 days. Two out of the 10 was spent indoors working remotely without any issues related to excessive noise. The rental property is clean. There was an unexpected issue that occurred during my stay. However, Alice was prompt in addressing the matter. I definitely recommend staying here if you are traveling for work, or are vacationing with family.

Best Stay Ever - 5 Star! +++

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! You can tell that Alice puts great effort into making your stay the best it can be. She was terrific with communication, very quick to kindly respond. No problems at all during our stay. She communicated well the arrival and departure instructions. I appreciated the absolute thorough cleanliness of her villa! The best I have stayed at! I especially appreciated that she requests no shoes in the home. Her villa is nicely furnished and decorated. She has a well stocked kitchen for cooking which I truly appreciate. Plenty of towels for bath and kitchen. Comfortable bed! Quiet area! We were very thankful for the use of the beach chairs and towels. The villa is as she described. It was just perfect! We will definitely stay again when we return to the area! Truly a pleasant stay! I hope all others treat her villa with the care that she does and truly appreciate the effort that she puts forth to make her guests feel quite comfortable and at home!
