Cute cottas in Vamo. We had never been to Sarasota FL and this was a great trip. The cottage was very cozy and perfect for our little family of 3. Very dog friendly (we left our pup at home with Dad). We used the kayaks and bikes and cooked many meals. It’s very convenient to grocery stores. It’s about 15-30 minutes to a beach depending on time of day and which one you go to. This property has a cute back yard where I think I could have spent an entire afternoon. I enjoyed drinking my coffee out there and reading in the sunshine. Beautiful stay at a quaint cottage. Thank you!

Very nice property with a beautiful back yard. Mom and young adult son stayed and had plenty of space. Wonderful to have kayaks and access to Sarasota bay right in the neighborhood. The owner is very responsive. Would definitely book this property again. Thank you!!

Adorable coastal gem

My husband and I had an amazing stay in this adorable coastal cottage. The Vamo boat launch is literally the next street over and we enjoy kayaking, fishing and bike riding the neighborhood. Our dog particularly looooved the big fenced in backyard along with the dog toys that were supplied in the house. All beach supplies, toys and chairs were provided. Thank you so much for the amazing stay and hospitality!

Excellent updated little cottage with nice backyard. Well decorated, nicely equipped and very cozy. Great to have the kayaks! Just 7 min walk to the launch place one street over. Just 15 Min drive to Siesta Key beach. close to major stores and some nice restaurants. Owner responded within minutes. Will come again.
