We got this room for our adult children to stay in and they absolutely loved it! Very nice and clean. Private courtyard with a grill and table was a bonus!
We had a wonderful relaxing stay. Hosts Camille and Lou were welcoming and accommodating to all our needs. The apartment was adorable, fully stocked and only a very short walk to beautiful Lido Beach. Would love to return again.
Host welcomed us and made themselves available. They offered a fully equipped kitchen. Clean bathroom. Nice outdoor patio. We had a great week! Hope to return next year.
A very cute rental perfect for one or two with cooking facilities and all the amenities. Excellent location to beach, St Armand circle, trolly and town of Sarasota Would definitely return
This is a cozy studio with everything you will need to feel at home. There is a great outdoor patio area for extended living space. We enjoyed our stay and the owners were very helpful and informative. It is only 2 short blocks to walk to the beach. We also enjoyed walking around the shops and restaurants in St Armand’s Circle. I’d love to stay here again.
Beautifully laid out apartment for 2 adults and our little doggie. Camille and her husband where there for us with any need we had. Close to beach and Armond's circle. Soup to nuts.... everything was perfect. Thanks for a wonderful stay!!
Great! Intimate spot near the beach and St. Armand's circle
Great little property. Perfect for a couple. The hosts provided great communication and details. We also really loved the little backyard. The little electric torches around the patio were a nice touch. It is a perfect location. One block away from Lido Beach and about a 10-minute walk to St. Armand circle. It was clean, quiet and has everything you need for a nice getaway including a full kitchen. We will definitely consider returning when we come back to the area.
We are already looking to come back! The cottage was exactly as it is listed. It was cozy and had everything you would need during your stay. The owners brought out a heater and extra covers when the temperature dropped. Very nice and safe area. Being able to walk to the beach was a bonus!
