Place was fantastic and so was Dave! Recommend!

The place is nice and clean place to eat watch TV

This casita is a perfect getaway for a couple. We stayed here over Thanksgiving weekend and enjoyed the balance between spending time with the family and having this retreat. It's very well-appointed with everything you need to enjoy time together. The setting is gorgeous, the bed is comfortable, the bathroom and kitchen are well-equipped, and there is plenty of quiet and privacy. Linda was available if we needed anything, but it was so well-stocked that we were all set. I highly recommend staying here!

Linda and John were wonderful as hostess and host. They did not bother us but when we had a question they were readily available. The home was immaculate with luxurious bedding and towels. Fabulous shower, great TV and comfortable furniture. We enjoyed long walks in the neighborhood and unfortunately did not have time to use the kayaks and bicycles which were available. We were greeted with a bottle of wine and a basket of wonderful snacks to tide us over until we had time to grocery shop. The kitchen was well-equipped so cooking was easy. We are already looking forward to our stay with Linda and john next year.

Lovely Casita beautifully appointed and decorated. The hosts thought of everything. Snacks and wine upon arrival, coffee and cream for the morning. The bed was plush and comfortable. I wish I had been able to go paddle on their river.

Everything was perfect. I can't say enough good things. The bed was so comfortable and the rain shower felt so nice after a day of exploring the town. We went kayaking down the river in the back yard several times. This was our first time using airbnb and the experience was much more than expected. 5 Star All The Way!!!!

This was our first time using Airbnb and we were not quite sure what to expect. Everything was great! Linda communicated to us a few days before Check-in to make sure any questions were answered. The Casita Guesthouse was beautiful and had everything we needed for our stay. The home is in a quiet neighborhood just a short drive from the beaches, outlet mall, or University Town Center. We would definitely stay again!

This property was fantastic and all the added touches made it absolutely our favourite property yet. We will definitely stay here again and would highly recommend it to others. The communication from Linda was very accurate and immediate. I really can't say enough good things about this stay.

Seriously a amazing place! One of the best Airbnb's I have ever stayed in!

Beautiful, spacious and quiet. We spent 6 nights very comfortably. The house and neighborhood are top notch. I would describe the accommodations as an in-law apartment; completely separate entrance. Large living room/kitchen with balcony, king size comfortable bed and attached private bath with shower. We met our host in the yard a few times and had nice talks. We enjoyed kayaking in the river behind the house. Lots of birds to watch. And, completely quiet. A nice neighborhood for walking. We could not be happier. We hope to return.

Julie and Rick are great wonderful people, with amazing hospitality!!! They made me feel right at home...highly recommended!!!

Great place with amazing hosts!

They and there home where perfect for my needs. They are very accommodating.

great location with wonderful (URL HIDDEN) amazing time!!!

Julie and Rick were so helpful and very service minded. I had everything i needed at all times. They were so nice to socialize with, but relaxing in my room with AC was not a problem either. Clean and tidy. Plenty of diners and restaurants, as well as Walmart, in walking distance. Thank you!

Un lugar bastante conveniente, para unas vacaciones calmadas y tranquilas. Agradable para sentirse como en casa durante las vacaciones, limpio y cómodo. Buena privacidad y rodeado de naturaleza. Muy Cerca de los atractivos de la ciudad: restaurantes, playas, compras...Para repetir!!!!

Let me preface my review by noting this was my first Airbnb experience. With that being said, Tara's place was excellent and completely fit my needs. I was in Sarasota for a reunion with some college friends and this was exactly what I envisioned. It was ideal for a solo traveler or a couple. Very clean with necessary amenities, climate controlled, and in spite of being connected to her section of the house, it was very quiet. Absolutely no sound at night or in the morning. I heard the kids once when they came home from school and I could hear the washing machine/dryer once in the late afternoon, but that was about it. The place is located on a quiet residential street within 10 minutes of downtown, 15-45 minutes (traffic depending) of the beaches, and also about 2 minutes from a grocery store, a CVS, ATM and fast food dining options. My itinerary was pretty well set so I did not interact that much with Tara in person nor require much from her in the way of suggestions, things to do, etc, but all she was ready and willing to respond to anything I might need. She replied quickly to all email/Airbnb app communication. As I try out other Airbnb properties in the future, Tara has set the bar pretty high for the combination of affordability and quality.

The apartment was very nice and well kept. The neighborhood is quiet convenient we spent a week in the apartment had a wonderful time visiting Sarasota. The apartment feels much larger than the pictures Show. Tara was very accommodating in every way.

Highly recommended, location is perfect, place was beyond clean and very comfortable. Tara was easy to get a hold of if anything was needed and extremely pleasant.

Tara was one of our nicest host and her house / our own apartment was awesome. We feeled like home. It is perfect for a longer stay. The apartment had an own kitchen with all stuff you need for cooking. Also you can use the washer and dryer what is very helpful for a longer trip. The area was quiet but not far away we had all we need and it needs not a long time to the beach. We can absolutely recommend Tara, her Family and the wunderful apartment. If we come again to florida we would book it again and maybe for a longer stay.

Tara is a gracious host, as others have already mentioned. The comfortable apartment is as advertised - homey, spacious and equipped with everything one needs to have a great base of operations in Sarasota from which to explore the environs. The kitchen and bathroom are well stocked, the bed is very comfortable, and Tara provided extra sheets/pillows for our two children. She also allowed us to wash/dry our clothes - a major plus for a family. It is well located on a quiet shaded street on a lovely private lot with old oaks in a low-density area of 'ranchettes', and has ample parking. Shopping is blocks away with many new stores, restaurants, and conveniences available. Less than 10 minutes from SRQ airport and the Ringling Museum, which has a bookstore, restaurant, cafe, rose garden, creative playground, and a super place to sit for picnics near the bay. We enjoyed our stay and plan to return later this year. Unless you want to step outside and put your feet in the Gulf, Tara's place a no-brainer.

This was my 2nd stay at the property and it was awesome as usual. The place is roomy, comfortable, and spotless. The location is great, you can get pretty much anywhere in the Sarasota area in 30 minutes or less. I really can't say enough good about it.

My girlfriend and I loved staying here with our dog. The backyard was huge and Tara and her husband were very accommodating. We put the kitchen to use and there was enough equipment there to cook comfortably. Would recommend!

Dorothy was a great host, her home wa like staying in our own home! Had everything we needed, pool and spa were wonderful. Location is close to everything!

Absolutely lovely home in a wonderful neighborhood! Extremely clean and ample amenities! Dorothy was very responsive to all my questions and even checked to make sure all was well while we stayed! :) House was located in a great location, central to most everything! Quiet and friendly neighborhood allowed us to enjoy our family time. Pool and hot tub were wonderful, very clean! I would highly recommend this home and host for anyone looking to enjoy a peaceful and relaxing vacation! :) Of the homes I've rented through airbnb, this is by far my favorite! We would definitely stay in this home again! :)

Great little place to stay if you're visiting the Sarasota area. Short drive to beaches, restaurants, etc. Hosts were very helpful and the house was a great value. Much more room and amenities then you'd find in a hotel, and cheaper!

This place is wonderful and the people are so sweet. We didn't interact with them much but the interactions were pleasant. The place is super cute and perfect for a beach stay! The whole place was equipped with everything we needed! It was about 25 minutes from siesta key and in a beautiful neighbourhood!

What a great place! Very clean, quiet and in a great location. Host definitely go above and beyond to make you feel welcome, and answer all questions. Looking forward to our return and stay with them again! Highly recommend!

Reuben was a terrific and accomdating host. The home is totally self contained including a nice size bedroom, closet, very usable living area, stocked kitchen area, fast WiFi, dish TV, and nice bathroom and shower. There is even a carport to keep your car out of the sun. It is very clean and seemed to be new. It is set in an area with beautiful homes on lots of acreage. The private road provided a chance to go for morning walks among the farms, horses, goats, and serene scenery. The amazing part was it is litterally moments away from some of the best restraurants and shopping in Sarasota. I had a terrific time and would recomend staying here to anyone.

We loved our stay!! The property is absolutely gorgeous, and the guest house has plenty of privacy. Reuben was very accommodating and made us feel welcomed. Would definitely recommend!

We highly recommend Reuben's place. It was right off the highway, which made it conveniently located to a variety of things to see and do as well as bars and restaurants. It's a quiet place with beautiful surroundings. It's perfect for a couple or friends of traveling as it had everything we needed.

Reuben and his wife were great hosts! My husband and I traveled from the east coast of FL to explore Sarasota for a quick weekend getaway. Check in was simple and we were greeted from across the lawn by Reuben who told us not to hesitate if we have questions. Upon arrival we found a letter on the counter with information like the wifi password, grabage can location, their telephone number etc. -which was helpful and answered all questions. Apartment was very clean and welcoming and had the proper amenities for a 2 day or 2 week stay -(functioning kitchen area, washer/dryer, tv, couch etc.)Their home is located just a 15-20 minute drive to all the popular surrounding beaches. The location was so convenient. Very pleased with our first Airbnb experience!

This place was absolutely amazing, perfect location "in the country" but close to the city, beaches and tourist locations! A perfect little getaway

Tomara is a very friendly, helpful and gracious host. Her dog is a sweetheart. I will definitely stay there again if I return to that area. I rented a car so it was super convienent for me being just 5 minutes from the airport.

Tomara is a really sweet and wonderful host. We've only been there one night but it was awesome. She was so welcoming and everything was very comfortable. She had a nice breakfast for us and gave us some tips what we could do in the night. We would love to stay there again if we come back to Sarasota.

Tomara was an amazing Host ! We felt so comfortable And welcomed' the Place was very clean ! We had wonderful conversations And enjoyed the house . We loved it ! Very homey and peaceful ! We will return soon !

Красивый, очень уютный, особенный и неповторимый дом в самом курортном месте Америки! Замечательная хозяйка Тамара всегда улыбчива и доброжелательна! Даже с минимальным знанием английского языка вам будет с ней комфортно и уютно! Beautiful, very cozy, and special house in the resort area of America! Tomara is always friendly and cheerful!

I stayed one night at Tomaras charming home in Sarasota and I never wanted to leave! The room was delightful, clean and came with our own bathroom. Tomara was a wonderful host! I could not have had a better first airbnb experience! Close to longboat key and lido beach, which are beautiful places to shell hunt and explore. Such a wonderful experience to wake up with complementary hot coffee, chocolate croissants and great conversation! Would recommend staying with Tomara to anyone with a good soul. She is a light and joy to be around! Get to know her!

Tomara was a warm, welcoming hostess who went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed to settle in and feel a sense of community. Her home is a clean, comfortable, relaxing, quiet, sweet and inviting sanctuary in a safe neighborhood that is close to everything Sarasota had to offer; beaches, restaurants, downtown, etc. My experience staying with Tomara felt more like I was staying with a life-long friend when in actuality we had only just met. She truly is a reflection of the quote "there are no strangers; only friends we have yet to meet." Tomara was very communicative and helpful, and I would absolutely wholeheartedly recommend staying with her; it is a perfect place to stay in Sarasota! Thank you again, Tomara!!

A wonderful space! Tomara was kind and welcoming, and her house was clean, comfortable, and safe. My stay was quite enjoyable:) Highly recommend to anyone!

It's really a good place to stay. It makes me feel at home. I love the tea and bagel Tomara offered every morning, and I love the cute dog! Thank you for providing useful information for this trip. Highly recommend!!

I really liked coming here, first time doing AirBnb and I was nervous but it turned out awesome. The location is perfect and the beach isn't too far as well! Great choice to come and relax

I really enjoyed my stay here while in Sarasota. The apartment is very clean and modern and it was a very comfortable stay.

Sean's place was very nice. It was only about 4 miles from the airport and 3 miles from Nathan Benderson Park so it was very centrally located. The unit was quiet and clean and very spacious. Would definitely stay again.

We booked Sean's condo to evacuate from Hurricane Irma, and the storm changed direction to put Sarasota directly in Irma's path. Because of this, we canceled our reservation for this AirBNB. Sean was very responsive and understanding, and we hope he was able to house someone who needed shelter.

Sean's place is a quiet neighborhood, well located and very accessible. The place was clean and well appointed. All basic necessities and more are met. Enjoyable and a definite recommended stay, I would stay here again, for sure.

Nice, quite getaway! Clean condo, everything we needed was there. Easy check in. Great host! We would love to book his condo again!

Nice place. Great location. Close to a lot of restaurants and shopping.

Rick and Julie were super kind! Check is was super easy and the place was great! Would definitely recommend.

Apartment pretty small and dark but clean and well located. A very good bed, Lana was very accomodate Thank you

Great location. Super friendly host.

Roderick and Lana were wonderful hosts that made our stay very easy. The room and all common areas were clean, basic necessities were available and they made check in and check out simple and painless. The room itself has a TV, large closet, lamp and comfy chair. If you like a firm bed, this one is for you!

5 star

Great stay!

Great place. Very clean with a beautiful new bathroom and private entrance. Very close to downtown Sarasota and beaches. Check-in was a breeze. Hana is a great host!

This place was exactly what I needed. Private, comfortable, nice bathroom and a great price. The host was very accommodating on short notice. I would definitely stay there again.

Hana, Thanks for a Great weekend!! I just love your place and I would recommend your place to anyone!!

Great communication process even when (because my change of plans) I couldn't stay at the property.

Hana and Lada are very friendly and excellent hosts. The room had everything one could expect, and more. There is a desk with castered chair plus a fridge, microwave and coffee maker including dishes. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom with the shower is up to date with ample towels. The lighting and TV both had remote controls. The parking is private and the entrance has motion sensor for arrival after dark. My stay was 8 nights,and most enjoyable.

We stayed there one night and we were really happy about this place. Best airbnb so far! Everything was perfect, neighborhood is very nice, room very cozy and clean, host very friendly! We totally recomend this place!

Place was great. Beds were really comfy. Place was clean and easy to access. Hana was sweet. The bathroom was nice and the shower was huge. There was even water in the fridge for us.

Hana kindly accepted my last-minute booking request. She and Lada were very friendly. The place was clean and quiet. I would definitely stay again!

Zona tranquila rodeada de vegetación B Muy bueno el wifi y el aire acondicionado En general muy bien la relación calidad precio

Very quiet and very comfortable accommodations.

Remodeled/updated unit overlooking pool done very well. Furnishings and interior decorating motifs are outstanding. Place was spotless. Pillow topped bed in master was heavenly. Communication with hostess was thorough, timely and helpful. About as good as it gets. P.S. I can't wait to see what TJ picks to replace existing tiles in living (URL HIDDEN) doubt will be fantastic!

I stayed with two friends at TJ's place. We were all comfortable and enjoyed our stay; it was clean, quiet, and spacious. About a 20 minute drive from downtown Sarasota. We especially enjoyed hanging out in the large screened porch in the mornings.

We had a very nice stay. The place was very quiet. We didn't see any neighbors. Very nicely decorated. Wouldn't recommend for a family with small, young children because of the decor. It was fine for my teenagers though. No wash-clothes so bring your own, but plenty of towels and linens. TJ was very easy to communicate with and worked with us on short notice.

Very well equipped apartment in a lovely area. Clean, safe, spacious and close to the pool!

This was a most enjoyable option to a hotel. Much more comfortable and welcoming. The condo came with all the necessary amenities. Very convenient location to major highways. Quiet and safe location.

Lovely decor! We had the pool to ourselves!

Tia's place was perfect for what I was looking for. It was very clean, nicely furnished and it was a pleasure working with her!

The cottage is exactly as listed - private and so adorable. It is located at the end of a road covered in greenery and, coming from Mississippi, I felt like I was in a rain forest. Bridget was so nice and had a welcome basket and breakfast in the frig upon our arrival. I would highly recommend anyone staying in her cottage.

The location of the cottage is beautiful. It feels very secluded while allowing easy access to beaches and restaurants. We had a few issues, some of which were (sort of) resolved quickly. The deadbolt lock on the front door is difficult to use and the sliding doors did not lock initially. Bridget did send someone to assist us with locking the sliding doors but we could not unlock them again during our stay. I would recommend doing laundry off site. The laundry is located around the back of the house and does not have a light. We had an issue with the dryer not heating. Bridget was very quick in having the dryer switched to a different dryer however the replacement did not work either. We were under the impression we would be instructed how to transport the kayaks but we were not. We were able to figure it out and very much enjoyed our day with the kayaks. The grilling area looked nice however the grill was VERY DIRTY. We did not utilize the area during our stay. The air conditioning works well and the bed was very comfortable. The cottage smelled clean during our entire stay. I enjoyed the skylights. The kitchen was well stocked, functional and the sink is beautiful. Based on other reviews my expectations were high and this experience fell short. I don't think I will be utilizing Air B&B in the future.

FAVORITE. AIRBNB. EVER. I found Bridget's place on Airbnb when I was looking for a place to stay for a wedding on Longboat Key. I purposely sought a place off the island that looked cozy, non-resorty, secluded. In short, a sanctuary where I could practice yoga and zen out in between wedding festivities. Bridget's wonderful cottage was all of that and more. Walking in, I immediately felt relaxed. The exposed wood beams and skylights are absolutely dreamy, making you wonder whether you are still in Florida or instead the mountains or a lush jungle. It was so nice to find a bottle of wine and snacks waiting after a 3-hour drive. The cottage truly is stocked with everything you need! We only wish we could have stayed longer. Good and happy vibes in this wonderful little place, hope to stay again next time we are on the west coast :)

Bridget is a great host. My family was very impressed with her cottage and talked about rebooking annually. We are so pleased we found Bridgets place. The location and accommodations were perfect.

We had a wonderful stay at this cottage! Loved how secluded the place felt and it was very well-supplied. We were worried about being so close to the airport but noise was not an issue. Great location for sight-seeing.

It was a fantastic trip! The skylights in the house were an amazing source of natural lighting which made it that much cozier. The place was a perfect place to relax at and is so close to downtown Sarasota so if you want to go out its not an issue either. I would definitely rebook with out a doubt!

Great property for the money! We were greeted with a basket of wine and snacks which was super! Loved the access to beach bikes and the kayaks!

The cottage sits back in a private jungle with rooftop windows that are wonderful when it rains, they sooth your ears as you drift to sleep. Inside no detail goes over looked and you feel as if you are truly in a rainforest, the ultimate getaway. Bridget was kind enough to let us bring two fluffy dogs who absolutely loved exploring the hidden paths throughout the jungle yard and even provided dog treats and doo doo bags! Not to mention making sure we had a hearty breakfast waiting in the fridge. I can't imagine a more fitting place for our week in Sarasota, the location seemed to be at the center of everything - no matter which direction we headed, everything was no more than 10 or 15 minutes away. No brainer if you are looking for the perfect tropical/beach vacation.

Thank you, Jean, for a great stay. We really appreciate you opening up your home to us and we appreciate your hospitality. Staying with Jean was a joy...like staying with a friend. She was very welcoming. We enjoyed some brief discussions with her and yet she respected our privacy.

Very Hospitable, very nice accommodations and back patio/yard is very quiet and enjoyable to spend time. Jean was great and made us feel at home. Two thumbs up!!

I had a wonderful stay at Jean's house! She made me feel very welcome, and her home was very comfortable in a peaceful setting. Her dogs are very sweet, quiet and friendly, and I enjoyed meeting them, too! I was in town to participate in an art's festival, and it was very easy to get downtown from her home. The room was charming & comfortable, and just as pictured in the photos. I recommend Jean's, and I would stay here again!

Jean was a warm and friendly host. If you enjoy dogs, this is the place for you with dogs as friendly as Jean and very well behaved. We had a wonderful time in a homey environment which was well located to popular sights. We had a lot of laughs with Jean and she was great fun to be with and full of surprises.

I just returned to Alaska yesterday, I stayed with Jean for 11 nights. My first impression was the pictures just didn't do her house justice. The room was very nice and there is plenty of space. The yard was amazing. Jean is a wonderful hostess and Custer, Shamos and Minnie are very polite and well mannered. My stay was fantastic and I highly recommend Jean and her home. There are plenty of places to shop within a few mile radius of her house. My stay was wonderful and I would stay with Jean again. Oh yeah, she is a message therapist and she was very good!

This is a great place to stay in Sarasota. Close to the beach, shopping, etc, yet in a nice residential area. Hostess is wonderful and makes you feel at home immediately. Screened porch and spacious backyard are big pluses. Entire home is artfully decorated; dogs are exceptionally friendly and well-behaved.

Had a great short stay at Jean's home. It was very welcoming, peaceful and comfortable. We didn't end up with time to enjoy the huge backyard, but did get some quality time with her two lovely old dogs. She was very kind, accommodating and welcoming. Thank you Jean, for helping us with our weekend getaway!

Jean is amazing, the room is better than any hotel I've stayed in, and her dogs are adorable
