About the host
Hosted by Dariusz Kobajlo
Hi, we're so happy you're here! 😊
We are full-time residents of The Strand — this is our home, and we love sharing it with wonderful guests from all over the world. Living right here in the building means we're always just steps away, ready to help with anything you might need during your stay.
We're passionate about Sarasota and everything this incredible city has to offer — the beaches, the arts, the food scene, the sunsets. We've spent years discovering all the best hidden gems and local favorites, and we genuinely love helping our guests experience Sarasota the way locals do.
For us, hosting isn't just about providing a place to sleep — it's about making sure every guest feels truly at home, comfortable, and taken care of from the moment they arrive to the moment they leave. We've put a lot of love into designing The Strand Penthouse to the highest standards, with all-new furniture, beds, and premium linens, so that you can relax and enjoy every moment of your stay.
Whether you need a restaurant recommendation, directions to the best sunset spot, or just a friendly face — we're here for you. We hope your time at The Strand becomes one of your favorite travel memories. Welcome! 🌊
Why they chose this property
We chose The Strand on North Tamiami Trail for one simple reason — it truly is the perfect location in Sarasota. 🌴
Living here means you're at the center of everything. Downtown Sarasota with its incredible restaurants, rooftop bars, waterfront dining at The Quay, and the beloved Saturday Farmers Market is just minutes away. The Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall, The Bay Park, and Sarasota's thriving arts scene are practically at your doorstep.
And yet, despite being so close to the city's best attractions, the neighborhood itself feels calm, residential, and beautifully maintained. You get the best of both worlds — the energy of a vibrant city when you want it, and a peaceful, comfortable retreat to come home to at the end of the day.
What makes this property unique
The Strand Penthouse is truly one of a kind — and here's why. ✨
First, the views. Waking up to sweeping bay and city views from a bright, south-facing corner condo is an experience that never gets old. The natural light that fills this space throughout the day is extraordinary.
Second, the personal touch. Unlike most short-term rentals, your hosts actually live in the building full-time. We are real neighbors — not a management company, not an app. We are real people who genuinely care about your experience and are always on-site if you need us.
Third, the quality. The Strand Penthouse has been completely redesigned from the ground up — all-new furniture, premium beds, and luxury linens throughout. Every detail has been thoughtfully chosen to make you feel comfortable, at home, and well taken care of.
Fourth, the kitchen. We've fully equipped the kitchen with everything you could possibly need — quality cookware, glassware, plates, and all the appliances — because we believe a great stay means having the freedom to cook, relax, and truly live in the space.And finally, the location. 15 minutes or less to Siesta Key Beach, Lido Beach, the Ringling Museum, Van Wezel, waterfront dining, the Sarasota Opera, UTC Mall, Jack's Marina, and the beautiful Bay Park. Everything Sarasota has to offer is right at your fingertips.
The Strand Penthouse isn't just a place to stay — it's the experience of Sarasota done right. We can't wait to welcome you. 🌊
