Yhe cottage is clean, filled with everything you may need, including great books and games, and it's very private.

Beaches and St. Armands were 30-40 minutes away. The bathroom was a step up from the bedroom, so this house is not appropriate for anyone handicapped. ##### Jeanne R.

Very private and a lovely outdoor seating area. The gardens out side were beautiful with lots of tropical plants and flowers. The owners were very receptive and the location was great, and only a few minutes to most of the local attractions. Highly recommend. ##### David E.

The bed had a very thin mattress and much too firm for me. Everything else was outstanding. ##### Jack-Lynn G. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Judy C. Mar 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Orioles Spring Training Great location for Spring Training games at Ed Smith stadium. Funky and cute little cottage in back yard of owner’s house, on a gated property. Cottage was well appointed. Bathroom light switch is in bedroom not bathroom. Closets are in living room not bedroom. Some water damage at front door prevents door opening all the way, but didn’t prevent entry/egress. Owners were very responsive to communications. Had use of nice full size washer and dryer and detergent…great perk! Parking is best for a small/mid-size car to safely position car to be facing out for safe exit onto road. Cottage is not in a typical neighborhood, so don’t expect to have a place for a nice morning or evening stroll. But location is awesome for getting to stadium and around and about for restaurants, etc. ##### Judy C. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Nancy K. Jun 3, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cute cottage This is an older cottage and does show its age in some areas. The bathroom is newer and the shower is very nice. The private outdoor area was nice. It only has a 1 room wall air conditioner and runs all the time to keep the place cool. There is a ceiling fan in the bedroom which does help. The queen bed in the bedroom is actually a futon, but has a nice mattress on it. The surface is clean, but could use a deep, steam clean and caulk and paint. Overall, it was an okay place. ##### Nancy K. Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Roger I., Minneapolis Minnesota Feb 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cottage on Gocio Road We spent an entire month at Nigel and Simone‘s cottage. it was simply wonderful, an experience we will treasure for the rest of our lives. The cottage is cozy, comfortable, clean, and completely welcoming. The term “premier host” is sometimes used a bit too casually. Nigel and Simone are simply the best hosts we have encountered in our extensive travels. There were a few very minor issues that needed attention, mostly because we’re not so great at handling new equipment. But Nigel was always responsive very quickly to our requests and took care of everything immediately. One of the best aspects of this rental is the extensive amount of equipment that is available; beach, chairs, camping chairs, blankets, umbrella, everything you need for the beach and enough for at least four people. We had some family come down, and we never had to worry about having enough equipment; one camping chair, broke, and within a day Nigel presented us with two brand new chairs. Where do you get that kind of service? The location is convenient to downtown Sarasota, the beach, Selby gardens, the airport, and every kind of shopping imaginable. ##### Roger I.
