Relaxing stay in Sarasota

We greatly enjoyed our stay. The yard is very secluded and quite large, which was ideal for us. The house was exceptionally clean, and is well laid out. Powerful a/c system, super welcome for hot florida days. It also has a very large screened in lanai, which is perfect for relaxing.

Great location!

I was very happy about the location. It is very close to just about everything in Sarasota. Its a very nice neighborhood. Just a few blocks from the Sarasota Memorial. The park just down the street was awesome. Something for everyone there. I was very impressed with the backyard and landscaping. Very nice. This is my favorite place to stay in Sarasota. Off the beach.

Very difficult person to rent from..

Was met with attitude and accusations every time I asked the owner very simple and basic questions. Was very annoying and intrusive to deal with. There is a laundry key and laundry room available to guests and when I asked where it was because her other renters, completely unrelated to us, asked where the laundry key was, “she replied with, why do you need to do laundry so urgently?? You just got there??” Which honestly, if my parents wanted to use the laundry facility would’ve been just fine because they just drove 20hrs… but regardless, it was very intrusive and rude..

Old and in need of updating and cleaning

We should have realized when on the listing the front of the house was not pictured. Old living quarters that needs cleaning and updating. The house is damp and smelled moldy. The best thing is the location. The owner needs to step it up. Disappointed and unable to cancel. Lesson learned won’t use VBRO again.
