About the host
Hosted by Reni Papalexiou
It's a pleasure to meet you! My wife and I actually met in college while studying architecture at New Jersey Institute of Technology. Since then, we've had the opportunity to travel to many amazing destinations, and one dream we've always had is to become hosts ourselves. We're both very social and love entertaining, going to events, and meeting new people. That's why we're so excited to create a memorable experience for visitors to Sarasota. Whether you're here for business or pleasure, we want to make your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
Why they chose this property
Traveling is one of our greatest passions, and it has allowed us to meet so many fascinating people and explore some truly stunning places. As architects and interior designers, we've always dreamed of blending our love for travel, socializing, and beautiful design. When we visited Siesta Key in 2019, we fell head over heels for Sarasota and knew we had to make it our own. That's why we decided to purchase a home and create our own short-term vacation business. We truly believe that life is all about making connections, having unique experiences, and enjoying every moment to the fullest. By sharing our little slice of Sarasota with others, we hope to create something special that captures the essence of our very first visit here.
What makes this property unique
This home is literally just a walk away from Siesta Key and is perfectly situated minutes from downtown with museums and extraordinary dining and parks. As travelers ourselves we know what a blissful experience a vacation can be and do everything we can to anticipate what our guests' needs will be and to go above and beyond to curate a wonderful experience for our guests.
