Your home is beautiful. We've stayed in several homeaway rentals and your home has been the cleanest and most tastefully decorated. Thank-you, Becky

The house and pool was beautiful and clean, and a very short drive to the beach. We had a great time and would definitely stay there again!

The home was just lovely!

Hello!

...You did a great job with the renovation of the home. It really looks great, many upgrades. We are getting ready to remodel our master bath and kitchen and seeing how some of the ideas played out in your design really inspired some thoughts for our renovation. Again, thank you.

We truly enjoyed out time in Sarasota. It was great quality time spent together. My husband works outside about 80 hours a week, working most weekends, so this time together, as a family, is one for the memory books. Thank you again.

Dear Simona and John

We all really enjoyed our stay in your lovely home.
The house was clean and inviting and had everything you needed to relax or cook in comfort!
The layout of the house was perfect.... beautiful kitchen, perfect size rooms and gorgeous bathrooms.
The pool was wonderful and so inviting after a long day in the sun. Our two young boys love it as well and it felt like home.
We really enjoyed our holiday in Sarasota and hopefully will return to spend a relaxing time there in
the future. Thanking you once again!

Warmly,
Bogdan & Lucy

We had a fabulous holiday, in no small part down to this lovely home - all we could have wished for and more. The location is so quiet and yet so close to the main routes and the house is beautifully done out.

A total joy to stay here and we very much hope we have the chance to be back.

Family Vacation

Ann Arbor Michigan Family (South Lyon, MI 48178)
Review submitted: May 24, 2011   Date of arrival: May 1, 2011

This property lived up to my family's expectations. The living space when we were home was perfect for what we were looking for (spacious, updated and clean). The pool was a blast for my two young children and we made the most of it! When we were not relaxing at the house we were spending our time at Siesta Key beach which was maybe a 5 minute car ride away. I still cannot get over the beach. You have to walk on it to believe it. Truly incredible.

We would highly recommend this property to anyone considering a family vacation. It provides more privacy than a condo and it is located in a good subdivision with access to all of the amenities that you could desire. You will also want to make the trip to Myakka State Park. Especially if you have an overcast day. We did it for our kids b/c they wanted to see an aligator. Well we saw over 20 along with countless birds all in their natural habitat.

This is the best family vacation that we have taken in some time and I can truly say that everything was perfect and that we couldn't have asked for anything more.

Loving this trip!

Review submitted: May 24, 2011   Date of arrival: April 16, 2011

Your home is beautiful & such a great location! The last 4 years that we came to Sarasota, we stayed near Beeridge. The house was good, but we weren't too thrilled with the location.

Loving this trip, so far! Thanks again!

future. We hope that we left everything in order for you.

Not a pool house!

mjr (Ottawa)
Review submitted: May 24, 2011   Date of arrival: March 5, 2011

Don't rent this house if you hope to use the pool. It is so cold that it is unuseable. We even had children in our party and they would not go in the pool!!! We inquired about the pool temperature before renting this property and were told that a solar blanket would be installed and it would be quite comfortable for our stay. This was not done and the pool was far too cold to use. we brought this up to John (owner) while we were in Florida and he acknowledge this was a problem and offered us a discount if we rented this house the following year. We wanted the discount applied to the current stay as that is when we were inconvenienced but they would not budge. SO, they mislead us about the pool before we rented then admitted there was an issue but refused to compensate us for the inconvenience. Terrible service. Mislead and a refusal to compensate. This is bad business and the unusable pool was a huge negative on our vacation.
