Apr 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Spring Break Chad is very quick to communicate and had the house stocked with essentials for the kitchen, bath and the beach. The record player, yoga maps, weights and boxing gloves are a nice touch. The location is excellent - next to all the restaurants/shopping and a short walk to the beach. The place only has one bathroom, but we made it work without a problem. ##### John P. Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amy P. Mar 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location, wonderfully appointed! We had a wonderful experience at the Beachy Speakeasy. Chad has created a wonderful space in which you can relax, enjoy the shopping nearby and unwind from travel. Thoughtful details abound in the unique space above St. Armand's Circle. The outdoor space is phenomenal. Lido Beach is just a short walk, and all of the tools to enjoy it are right there in the unit: chairs, wagon, umbrella. Sarasota's new trolley service made getting back and forth to downtown a breeze. Chad's communication was clear and we knew exactly what to expect throughout our stay. Would definitely stay there again! ##### Amy P. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura M. Feb 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Right in the middle! The location of this unit is amazing—right at the circle with hundreds of shops and lots of restaurants. Less than 10 minute walk to the beach. Owner has bikes, a beach cart, beach chairs, a cooler and umbrella—all great for the stay. He sticks the kitchen and bathroom with anything you could need. All was great! Hoping to come back soon! ##### Laura M. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert B. Apr 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic stay Our family of four had an amazing stay over March break(Parents and a 6 & 8 year old). The location is perfect, 5 mins from the beach and 1 min from St Armand’s circle. The location could not be any more ideal for a family, we dined out at local family restaurants, used the kitchen to cook meals when it was convenient and visited the beach each morning to search for shells. We picked the location randomly and really hit the jack pot. Our host was very responsive and accommodating, particularly with an early check in and had some food supplies to tide us over until we got to a supermarket. Very clean, spacious apartment, comfortable beds, with everything you could possibly need for a short stay. Parking was easy(and free) once you follow the directions provided. 10 out of 10 stay. ##### Robert B. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lori C. Mar 17, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Best location/ best host!! The location of this blue door hidden gem is perfect! Walk to restaurants, shopping and the beach in minutes. Chad, our host provided beach chairs/ umbrella, beach wagon, cooler, even bikes (we did not use them)… everything needed for a great beach day. Apt was clean and had so many extras. Parking was never a problem on the side street and was reasonably priced. This beachy bohemian little apt was a great get away! We will definitely book again! ❤️ ##### Lori C. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Ann H. May 30, 2024 Disliked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Disappointed A couple of hours before arriving on Wednesday, May 15th the Host sent a message through VRBO letting me know the AC wasn’t working. A part needed to be ordered. When we arrived and opened the door it was musty and hot. There were five box fans and a small ac window unit in a hallway. My husband was on Sarasota on business when he got back on Thursday evening and still no AC he said we are leaving ##### Ann H. Stayed 4 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Beth Oct 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication The location was great for shopping and dining within St. Armand Circle. The bedrooms were very nice and beds very comfortable. We didn’t use the kitchen but it was large and well equipped. A lot of little extras that make a difference like: bathroom amenities including mouthwash, toothbrush and soaps. Anything you would need for the beach including sunscreen. There were plenty of sodas and even beer in the fridge when we arrived as well as a Nespresso machine with pods. There were a few minor things that needed repair like the toilet paper holder and a missing towel holder in the bathroom. The entrance to the apartment is odd in that it’s in the back of an alley by the garbage dumpster with a bit of a rough entrance that includes 2 flights of cement stairs to reach the actual apartment and there is no designated parking. Parking was a bit of an issue as you could park on one street 8pm-8am free of charge and then hourly parking during the day, so it was a bit of a hassle moving the car every 12 hours. It was a fun time and nice stay but next time I would choose convenience and closer proximity to the beach. ##### Beth Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ramsey -. Dec 27, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great stay! Will definitely be back! I look forward to my next stay at the beachy speakeasy. I felt very much at home in this cute two bedroom condo with fully stocked kitchen. The host has truly thought of everything, and the details were duly noted! I was especially impressed with the variety of condiments available for my Nespresso latte (e.g raw local honey etc.) I bought a few groceries and was able to cook and eat most of my meals at home because the host has a fully stocked kitchen with pots and pans and a variety of appliances like a crock pot, a toaster, a blender, espresso machine, coffee maker, coffee bean grinder and water filter pitcher just to name a few. I felt very at home with these details that I didn't even realize made such a difference until I was away from home!! The bed was really comfortable and it was very quiet which is important to me! Great strong wi-fi and the entire condo is set up with music receivers so that you can listen to music throughout the house and there are phone chargers available in every room. They even have a record player with some old school records if you're feeling nostalgic! I was able to do some yoga out on the rooftop which was really nice on a beautiful day. The host was very helpful when I had a few questions prior to check in, but they also provided ample information, instructions in the "condo manual" so that I could enjoy my privacy during my vacation and didn't need to reach the host again. I would highly recommend staying here. ~M. Donnelly ##### Ramsey -.
