Beautiful Meadows Country Club 2 bed/2 bath 1st floor condo in Woodland Grove.

We had a rat problem for close to a month with rat even popping its head up on couch when we were sitting on it, not once but twice. LL was not too helpful. Condo Association Pest Management were useless. Setting traps that rat would eat bate and get away. The pest guy admitted that they used cheapest traps. LL said they were doing everything they could. Meanwhile we were being woken up with trap going off, cleaning up rat poop off couches, living room and kitchen. Eventually a friend brought a different type off trap and caught it in 2 days. The experience tainted our stay. Condo has best view in the Meadows, needs updating but dealing with palm rats is not what we bargained for.

Ideal location, lovely tropical view, quiet yet 5 minutes from UTC, supermarket and restaurants. 25 minutes to the beach. Golf, tennis and gym on site. Apartment had everything we needed, it felt like moving into a friends home, lots of consumables so we didn’t need to buy everything. Would definitely stay again.

The host was great and responsive when needed. We had no issues during our stay. The condo was comfortable and in a good location.

Husband and I spent the month of January here. Kids came and visited for a week. Pet friendly. Very comfortable condo, close to shopping, restaurants, grocery. Beach 20 minutes away. Would recommend.

This location was perfect for us. The neighborhood has nature paths, restaurants, shops, and a small pool. The location is near the mall, restaurants, Nathan Benderson Park, and the freeway. The owner could not have been nicer or more accommodating. There was everything you could need at the place - appliances, silverware, hair styling products, beach gear, even fitness equipment. The place is clean and quiet. I would definitely recommend this property, and I extend my thanks to the owner.

Upon arrival we walked into our home away from home and were greeted by the most fantastic Florida view ever! The whole visual scene was of being in our own private, well manicured jungle overlooking the 3rd green of the Country Club course. We loved the lanai and the whole rest of the home. Beds were extremely comfortable. Linens clean and very nice. Plenty of beach towels and beach 'stuff'. Well appointed kitchen. Everything clean when we moved in. Corresponding with the owner, Tim, was easy to do. Not for complaining, but letting them know how much we love their spot and how we were taking care of it as if it were our own. The location is fabulous! We just LOVE The Meadows and owned a home a block away for 5 years. This is the next best place to stay without all the homeowner responsibilities! We look forward to returning here! We wish we weren't packing up to leave, but all good things must come to an end and we will be aiming back toward our children and grandchildren...so happiness awaits on the other end of our trip! This was an A++++++ experience that lasted all of February and March!

This was our second stay -- last year as guests and this year as renters. For us, it is ideal. The Meadows is a lovely community with many walking paths. This particular unit is light, spacious and well-equipped, with a desirable view over foliage to the golf course, boardwalk, and pool. The beds are comfortable, too! We could go on at length, but we'd prefer this be a well-kept secret, as we'll be in the queue to rent it again!

Wonderful condo, loved everything. The Meadows is a great location, lots of walking trails, golf, a library, and close to all shopping needs. The condo was perfect, clean, nicely furnished....wish I owned it.

We loved the condo, the location is amazing and Tim is so nice and helpful would definitely stay here again.

We spent a month at Tim's place during the heat of Sarasota's summer. Cool, comfortable! Lanai was great; each morning at about 6 am--we're early risers--a little armadillo lumbered out of the palmetto grove facing the lanai to do his armadillo business. Magical to us northerners, and mesmerizing to our dog. Pool was great, and nobody but us used it! Top marks.
