2 Cottages Rented Together | Amazing Heated Pool | Near Beaches

Summary:
Bring your friends, family and loved ones to enjoy an unforgettable escape at this unique property which comfortably sleeps 12. This is a rare opportunity to reserve 2 separate living spaces located on the same piece of property. These 2 living spaces are normally rented out independently and commonly known as Chrissy’s Cottage 1 and Chrissy’s Cottage 2. By booking this listing you will be reserving both cottages for the price shown.

The Space:
Chrissy’s Cottage 1 is a mermaid inspired 1-bedroom, 1 bath, home which sleeps 4. The Cottage has its own kitchen, washer/dryer and private entrances, perfect for the couple you’re traveling with who enjoy having their own space or the in-laws who came along and need some private space for themselves. Ideal for 2 people but can easily accommodate 4, there is a queen bed in the bedroom and a queen sleeper sofa in the living area.

Chrissy’s Cottage 2 is relaxing 3-bedroom, 2 bath, home which sleeps 8. This cottage is equipped with a full kitchen, high capacity washer/dryer and decorated with a coastal theme. The master bedroom has a king mattress and the other two bedrooms have queens. We also supply a queen air mattress which can be set up in the living room . There are two full bathrooms, one has a standard tub/shower combo while the second bathroom has a shower only (not tub) and is conveniently located with quick access to the pool/patio.

This listing is to rent both cottages together. The price shown is the total price for both cottages.

All of the bedrooms are equipped with comfortable mattresses, Samsung smart TV’s with cable, a luggage rack, a dresser and a closet for you to unpack and feel at home. In each cottage you will find beach towels and a cooler for your use along with beach chairs, umbrellas and other beach accessories.

Let's talk about the pool. It's large, it's deep it's heated and its fun! Located right outside your back door (literally) is the pool patio which is surrounded by tropical landscaping with palm trees and agave plants. There are two outdoor patio tables to accommodate all of your friends and family along with super comfy chaise lounge chairs for you to enjoy.

Spend your days soaking up the sun at Siesta Key Beach & your night’s poolside overlooking the lush, private backyard. The evening is a perfect time for grabbing a glass of wine and heading out to the patio to star gaze at the thousands of stars. If you fancy eating outside, there is a Webber grill for you to cook up some of the fish you caught on that fishing charter you went on earlier in the day.

The coastal decor of this home creates a bright airy ambiance that will allow you to relax as soon as you walk through the door. You are finally on vacation!

Amazing property perfect for a family vacation.

Everything was perfect from check-in to check-out. The home is ideal for extended families, offering plenty of space for everyone to be comfortable. We stayed during Thanksgiving week, and it was amazing.The heated pool and immaculate grounds made for a relaxing and fun trip. The location is fantastic—just 5 minutes to Publix and 14 minutes to Siesta Key Village.I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend this property!

Fantastic stay!

We rented both cottages, which was perfect for our family of eight adults. We had plenty of room to gather inside and out, but also could enjoy private spaces if we needed to. The home is super clean and everything is well maintained. The beautiful pool area was a family favorite, particularly in the evening. There was also plenty of space for parking three large vehicles. Check-in was seamless and communication was excellent throughout.

Great property!!

I can’t say enough great things about this property! Everything was so clean and was stocked with everything we needed. The beach gear was great. It was nice to have the pool right outside to hang out. My teens loved it! Lots of things are close by and just 10-15 minutes from beaches. I had to get a hold of the owner and he responded quickly! Would highly recommend staying here!

Cozy cottages

The owners are wonderful…prompt in their responses, excellent in their communication! The location is perfect to walk to Publix and even downtown Sarasota (approx. 2 miles), and yet just know it’s on a main road and with a sewer lid and road patchwork out front there is some rumbling from traffic. We were in town for a family wedding, these cottages were perfect for our large group to have some separation when needed. The heated pool and seating area were relaxing.

Amazing Vacation Spot!

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at Chrissy’s Cottage. The rental was exactly as described, and the hosts were attentive and responded very quickly when we contacted them. It is clear that they want their guests to enjoy their stay. We had 5 adults and 2 children and we could have fit more people comfortably! The pool is great for kids and adults. Location is on a busy street but you wouldn’t notice when you are inside or in the backyard. Close to the beach and lots of restaurants. Would recommend this property to anyone going to Sarasota!

We don't think photos do justice to the cottages. The place was great! We loved it! It was close to the beach, stores & restaurants. The pool was great for the kids when we came back from the beach so the adults could get cleaned up or work on dinner. Definitely will look to stay here again if we have the same amount of people. John was absolutely great!

Family Vacation/Birthday Celebration

Our family, along with some of our son’s friends, gathered for our family vacation and also to celebrate our son’s 21st birthday late due to his college baseball schedule. This home away from home had it all, and then some! Very clean, great location and the owners were quick to respond/react when there were minor issues that needed attention.

Good location, warm pool and dog friendly

We stayed a month. Pros - Warm pool. Good pool guy who kept it as clean as possible. Dog friendly. Well enough equipped kitchen to cook most nights. Comfortable beds. John and Chrissy were very quick to respond to the 3 maintenance issues we had. Nice TV and washer/dryer. Plenty of room for a family, though we didn't use most of the rooms. New towels. Outdoor space is ample with 2 tables. Cons: On a very busy street, no sidewalk on the house side. House is old so bathrooms are tired, as is kitchen. Could use some TLC. The patio and the furniture need a good power washing. The smaller cottage has steps in weird places. Needed to put all of the night lights there to keep it safe for a guest. But they had the night lights so that was a plus.
