Our family had a wonderful stay at this home! The home was very clean, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen had every appliance and utensil needed for cooking. The house is spacious and accurate to its pictures. When we weren’t at the beach or enjoying the Sarasota area we were having fun in the pool. The pool was one of the cleanest I’ve seen. The pool area is very secluded with palm trees and greenery so it does give a feeling of privacy. There were plenty of towels, beach towels, pool toys, and beach accessories. Prior to our arrival, the host Christy sent suggestions for things to do in the area. We’re thankful she sent that because we did quite a few of the things suggested since it was our first time visiting Sarasota. This was a beautiful home and they thought of everything to make you feel comfortable.

Very nice place to stay and the neighborhood was also very interesting. House had plenty of extras to make it very useful. Extremely short drive to the SRQ airport which was nice!

Perfect House for a Family Birthday

Can’t say enough good things about this house. Mother-in-law lives about 5 minutes up the road but needed more space for a small family get together for her 75th birthday. The house is equipped with everything you need. We lived in the pool from morning til night. The proximity to the airport didn’t bother us at all. It was actually fun watching the planes take off. The owner, Christy, was very nice to deal with. We would definitely return to this beautiful home again. Highly recommend!

Everything was perfect!

Each room was very nicely decorated with a very homey, comfortable, clean feel to it. The entire house was “spic n span” - super clean!!! Tip: When using the dryer you have to put the heat all the way up or it won’t dry clothes/towels. The AC was kicken if u like it cold inside, or we kicked it down a few notches as well to warm it up when it cooled off during the rain. It was a PERFECT stay!!! Oh, one more thing - the house is close to an airport - there were very low flying planes taking off and landing - which was quite loud for like 30 seconds each, which came and went quickly, so it wasn’t bad at all. There weren’t a ton of planes, if I had to guess, over 3 days, there was like 6-8 planes. So it was nothing to be concerned about. It’s a lovely place!!! We made memories that will last a lifetime! Much love and peace to you all! <3

Spring break

My family of 5, plus one of my daughters friends, and our friends who are a family of 4 stayed here together for spring break. There was plenty of room for everyone. 2 adult children shared the bedroom with the barn door, 4 children ages ranging from 3-11 shared the bunk room, and the adult couples took the master and second bedroom. The house was clean and stocked with everything we needed for the week. Great pool and backyard area with treehouse and swing set that the kids loved. We appreciated the new lanai over the pool as it kept the pool area cleaner. We never encountered any bugs/insects as a previous reviewer said. Nice neighborhood. The neighborhood itself is directly across from Sarasota international airport and obviously air traffic is loud, but not deafening. Most air traffic is during the morning and evening but nothing at night while sleeping. This would not stop us from renting here again. Sarasota itself is busy and congested, so getting downtown or to Siesta key beach would take 30+ mins at times, when in reality it’s not that many miles away. We had fun being in the pool from sun up to sun down, hitting the beaches, dining downtown, playing mini golf, and catching a polo game at Sarasota Polo. Christy is accommodating and easy to communicate with. If I had to make a suggestion- it would be to add a small tv in the bedroom with the barn door and some hooks in the laundry area and pool area to hang wet clothes. This was our first time renting a VRBO and I’m glad we chose Christy’s property- would rent again if in Sarasota in the future!

Beautiful House close to everything

This was our first time in Sarasota for Spring Break and we loved it. The house was beautiful, very clean and well maintained. It was in a quiet neighborhood close to the Sarasota airport. Close car rides to AMI, Siesta Key Lido Key..... The host was very responsive and helpful with our advanced scheduling. She gave us a lot of information about the location, restaurants, sights and where to go. I can highly recommend the house. We were two families with total 3 teenagers and 2 kids. The outdoor pool was an added plus.

Whitfield Estates

This is a lovely house but the neighborhood is far from the beaches. It was my first time in Sarasota, so I didn't realize how far the house was to the beach. My biggest complaint was the noise from the Sarasota airport, literally across Rt. 41. It was constant. Christy was easy to deal with. House was well stocked, although only had 2 beach chairs. I had to buy one when friends came down. The weather was cool so didn't use the pool/lanai much but it was lovely.

Mosquitos, Ants, and Airplanes

I am normally not the person to take the time to write a negative review and have no desire to tarnish the owners’ reputation or rating. My wife and I had very high hopes for our stay at this property, but, unfortunately, because of the following, we were not able to stay and were forced to find other accommodations. Upon arrival at the house, after exiting the car in the driveway, myself, my wife, and our 2-year-old daughter started being bitten by the infestation of mosquitoes that surrounded the property. They were everywhere - in the front of the house, in the backyard, inside the house after I had the front door open for a minute or two, and even inside my car after we departed the property. To be clear, this was not just a few mosquitos, but a considerable number of them that made it both uncomfortable and unsafe. Furthermore, hundreds of ants were crawling around the paved deck by the pool. It would be pretty uncomfortable to spend any time there. Of note, the house is immediately adjacent to an international airport. In the few minutes we were there, numerous aircraft flew directly over the house. It was very, VERY loud. We live in a large city and are not particularly sensitive to noise, so trust me it is extremely loud. We were also unaware of the large black lanai that had been built over the pool. All of the photos in the listing of the yard show a gorgeous open yard with a pool open to the sky - and this is not in any way accurate. Part of the reason we booked this specific property was because there was supposedly no covering on the pool area, as shown in the photos that we saw when we booked. There seems to be a video showing the lanai attached to the listing now (I do not know when it was added) but the video is NOT visible if you are viewing the listing on the VRBO app, and the inaccurate photos (of which there are many) still exist on all platforms. The significant insect issue was enough alone to warrant us leaving but that was not the only problem. The owner was initially very responsive and I do appreciate that. However, she basically called me a liar stating that she has never heard of any problem regarding ants or mosquitoes. As I said, I’m not one to write these types of reviews, but feel it is important to share our negative experience at this property.

I am sorry that you felt the home didn't meet your expectations Miles. Unfortunately I do not feel this is a fair review whatsoever given you were only at the home for 5 minutes and did not give me any opportunity as the host to hear your concerns and / or remedy any concerns. You were at the home 5 minutes and left. Right after you messaged me that you were choosing not to stay with us, I did send out our concierge team to do a walk-through of the home & to determine if your concerns of mosquitos and/or ants were indeed valid. If your concerns were valid, I would have hopped on a remedy asap as we would never want our guests to have an unpleasant stay. Not only did she do a walk-through of the entire home, inside and out, but she took videos for us as well. As we suspected, the activity was minor and normal given you were outside. We also have all of our homes treated quarterly for all pests, inside and out, and on top of that, our landscaping crew sprays the yard as well. In addition, my husband, our daughter and my in-laws stayed at this property the week prior to your 5 minute arrival and departure, and he did not have this same experience whatsoever.... and he is a very picky guest, especially picky about our VRBOs as we care a lot about the comfort and enjoyment of our guests and keeping the values of our home high! Hopefully if you are a potential guest reading this review, and considering staying with us, you can see through the other reviews of our guests, on this home, and on our other VRBOs that we own, that we care a ton about our guests and their enjoyment of their time with us! We love hosting and take great pride in our homes! :)

Feels more like a home than a rental property

Very happy with our stay. The house is equipped and decorated like a real home not a rental house. We love to cook and found the kitchen to have everything that we needed. Lots of spaces to hangout and relax. The pool was clean and WARM for a November visit. It is a great location -quick drive to downtown Sarasota, Lido beach and St Armands circle. The home is in a nice neighborhood with plenty of areas to walk or run. It is near the airport so there is some air traffic but we didn't find it to be a problem. Would stay here again!!
