The owner was very easy to contact, right from our quote request and throughout our stay. The house is exactly like the pictures and very clean. Had a great time there. Also, the neighborhood is nice and central for Sarasota.

More fun in the sun...Sarasota
We had a wonderful stay here at this VRBO. From the very start, the owner Evona was so helpful and willing to work with us. The location was perfect...close to the beach and lots of good restaurants and shopping, but yet a very quiet neighborhood. There was a nice walking path close by. The house was super clean and provided for what we needed. We would definitely go back to this beautiful property if we visit Sarasota again.

Sarasota home away from home...
We loved the house and the location was great for our needs. We were in Sarasota on business and like to be close to where we need to be. The house could not have been more perfect. It was clean and the amenities were perfect. We lacked for nothing. With in 10 minutes you can be on the beach, near downtown and close to so many restaurants and local attractions. I stay with my staff ( my self and two assistants ) and the three bedrooms worked our perfectly. We had a minor issue with the TV/cable and we called and it was taken care of in a timely manner. The landlord is very hands on. I can't wait to come back next January and rent the house again.

Not as expected
Both the pictures and the write up were misleading. The overall space was too small for our invited guests. The property is in need of some “tender loving care”. kitchen upgrade was nice. Property in a good neighborhood. Property manager was extremely helpful and responsive but could do nothing to make the property work for us.

Not a good experience
Pictures are deceiving. Unmaintained property. Dead and dying cockroaches in the home which we had to dispose of
daily. internet did not work until the last night of our rental. That included the TV. There was garbage left over from another customer in cans that were not regulation containers . There was broken glass on the lawn and driveway. There was no hot water for a day. The toilets and the showers backed up and we had no bathroom facilities overnight.😩 They did send out a plumber in the morning to fix it..
The beach umbrella is broken. The home is dirty. We had to wipe everything down before putting our things down.. The grill was unusable as it was rusty. We spent too much of our precious vacation time either texting or emailing the owner about problems. She was absent in Europe and had her mother coming over to deal with problems. It was the worst experience we have had after renting many vacation rentals through VRBO. I have pictures to prove our experience!

Clean, quiet, good amenities, good location
The house was clean, quiet, and is in a very good location minutes from everything. Good hot water, good AC sleeps 6 or more if you include the pull out sofa. The owner was very good with communications prior to our arrival, so we fully understood how to get into the property, responsibilities, etc. I would stay there again.

Wonderful
The house does not disappoint. My wife and I got married on the beach and had our reception downstairs at the pool. Which is my favorite part. It has everything you could need and then some. Highly recommend.

Ranch house in quiet neighborhood convenient to Siesta Beach, shopping and downtown
We enjoyed our stay at Evona’s home which was just as shown in the listing. It’s an older style ranch house that’s been nicely updated. The new kitchen had everything we needed. It was great to have a washer and dryer. There is no ensuite bathroom. A full bathroom with tub is in the main hallway near the three bedrooms. A second full bathroom wth shower is in the back of the house. A large fenced backyard with table and six chairs and grill on the patio has plenty of room for running around or just relaxing outside. This house met all of our needs. Evona was very responsive; I’d be happy to deal with her again!

We felt like it was home from the minute we walked through the door. Relaxing, clean, nice location.
Thank you Evona for providing a great place for our family to relax and call "home" for a week. It was clean, comfortable and you couldn't beat the location; walking trail, a short drive to downtown and the amazing Siesta Key beaches. We visited the Selby Botanical Gardens, Mote Marine Aquarium , Myakka State Park, and Casparsen beach in Venice for sharks teeth. The beaches of Siesta Key have the most beautiful sand along with areas for fun in the sun, playgrounds, snack bars, cookout pavillions, volleyball nets, and amazing sunsets. There are many restaurants to choose from to please any appetite. I would definately recommend this home to anyone.

Very clean, spacious and convenient location
Two couples in their 60's stayed for 6 nights. Spotless - very clean. Newer IKEA kitchen has everything you need. The 2nd full bath is not next to a bedroom, but it wan't really an issue. Quiet neighborhood, convenient to highways for your day trips. 25 min to the Siesta Key Beach. Make sure you eat at the Turtles Restaurant - Happy our 3 to 6.

Pleasant Stay
This was a pleasant property in a well located area. It's necessary to drive to the beach, but it was close. Everything was neat and clean, with adequate amenities for our stay. The property owner was very easy to work with, and all the information we needed was sent to us in good time. We'll enjoy staying there again.
