Loved walking down to the little neighbor beach to watch the sunset. Neighborhood was quiet and nice to walk the dog. Construction being done at the school across the street which created more traffic and activity during the day. The side streets were somewhat congested during school drop off and pickup times. However that did not place any deterrent on our stay. Close to the Ringling Museum and Lido Key. Would definitely stay there again and recommend it. ##### Luann A.

Clean, comfortable bed and living area. Keyless entry is on a timer, we got there about 25 minutes early and had to wait until exact minute on the hour to check-in. I hesitate to even mention this because I’d stay there again in a heartbeat…. I don’t rely on a property being ready early but in this case house was cleaned and ready to go so it would have been nice to be able to go ahead, get in and situated. ##### Terri N.

Nov 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Short stay I contacted the owner several times prior to arriving on Oct 31.; in regards of the hurricanes that come through that area. The owner said all was good. Some fencing was down but would be up when we got there. Then a few days later I see about red tide being in the area. Once again, he reassured us that everything was good. Let’s just say, part of the fence is down, we did arrive an hour early and they gave us early access to the property. The gate only locked from the outside; which it’s a wooden fence and I had to life with all my might to get the latch to slide over and catch. This would Not be an issue if we didn’t have a dog with us and the fact they said everything was “good”. Also, not being very technical type of person; we struggled with the keyless entry along with the streaming of the tv. We realize that that area was beaten up with the storms; but just wanted an honest answer. Red tide is nothing to play around with especially when you have copd. ##### Ferne M. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John O. Apr 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Very Enjoyable! We (and our pet) took daily bike rides and walks around the very nice residential neighborhood that is a few blocks from Indian Beach. We enjoyed eating at several of the local restaurants and is only a few minutes to downtown Sarasota. The private fenced back yard and screen porch was our favorite place to relax. Kirby is a very pleasant and responsive host. It was our first long term rental and it did not disappoint. ##### John O. Stayed 29 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joseph M.

Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Bett H. Jun 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Sarasota Convenient to the areas in Sarasota we wanted to visit.Short drive to St. Armands Key, Ringling Museum, Columbia Restaurant, Shelby Botanical Gardens and the Linger Lodge. Neighborhood a little questionable and drive way was tough when pickup trucks parked right behind you on street. Otherwise the house was clean and mostly quiet neighborhood. ##### Bett H.
