Beautiful Villa in Private Resort-Style Community

The villa was perfect for our holiday and had absolutely everything we needed including beach toys. Our daughter loved the pool and it's a lovely quiet neighbourhood in a great location for us. We would definitely come back - thanks very much!

Love this s neighborhood. Quiet and nice

I’d like to be kind but honestly this was a shock. Sadly the cleaner employed by the owner did not clean and left dirt and pubic hairs in the shower from the previous guests , a dirty fridge and stove and dead cockroaches in several rooms. The aircon was off when I arrived- a big risk in Florida and I had to air out the musty house. I spoke with the owner but unfortunately he did not have anyone to available to clean. He offered to return my money minus the Vrbo fee but since it was high season nothing was available in that area and I needed to be close to my elderly parents as there was a medical emergency. I had no choice but to clean the house myself- a big job after my 17 hour flight. The owner offered a 200 dollar discount which I had to accept though I felt that I should have had all of my money back. The location of the house is good but a lot of the furniture needs replacing- the leather sofa had paint on it! It’s a shame as I’ve stayed many times in this complex and I’ve never had a problem. All of the houses there are similar but this one definitely requires a renovation.

Not clean, many things did not work, poor lighting.

This was the perfect location for our family. A quick drive to Siesta Key. We enjoyed the community pool and hot tub and shuffleboard. The villa was as advertised and had exactly what our family needed.

Other than staying on Siesta Key this is our favorite spot to stay. The pool is always warm and happened to be quiet in early Dec. Our unit had everything we wanted, it could have used a few repairs and things fixed but worked out great for the 2 of us.

My husband and I stayed for a week to visit our daughter. The kitchen had everything I needed to cook dinners. I drank my coffee every morning in the screened in lanai while listening to the birds and watching squirrels. The neighborhood is quiet and the pool is very relaxing. We will definitely come back to this house.

The villa is clean and has all(!) the expected amenities for daily living. We told Roman that he not only had everything we needed, but it was all organized in a way that made it easy to locate and use. With the pool and community grilling area, the community, too, is very welcoming. Lots of eateries and stores nearby, and we found a few beaches we enjoyed without visiting Siesta Key. We hope to return next winter!

Wonderful. House had everything we needed. Very clean.

We have been staying in Sarasota for years and have rented many house for a week or more. This was the most unusual of all experiences. This house looks great in the VRBO photos but the house has issues not covered in the photos. The house is in very clean condition for being as old as it is. The access to the house was excellent as the front door and garage door remote worked great. The master bed was very comfortable and the ac worked great. The house is very close to the TPC golf course in south Satasota and is close to Siesta Key Beaches(5 miles). It is a good distance to downtown and Armand Circle though. So it depends on what activity to want on how convenient the house is located. Problems with the house and manager were many. I don't think he has very good experience managing a property. We arrived to a musty smelling house, toilet paper still wrapped in paper, towels not on the racks but stacked in a closet, wifi did not work, the tv did not work, the tv in the bedroom only plays dvds (which we were not told to bring or did he provide any), there is no list of things to do in Sarasota for guests (we dont need but others usually do), recommended restaurants in the area, details about clubhouse and pool activities at property, there is only one clock in the house in the kitchen, only provided two dishwasher and laundry packs for cleaning. Things that are less than optimal and not really easy to see in photos: kitchen needs better quality pots and pans, missing fan in master bedroom(never seen this in any rental before in FL), screened porch looks unkept and in need of paint or updating, master bath mirror need cleaning and a frame to hide wear. All of this was brought to the attention of Roman. He promised to reimburse me $150 for the issues but to date have not received any funds. I would not recommend staying here with him as the manager as he does not keep his word. He lives in Chicago and sounds like an absent manager from the property who can't seem to find reliable help.

This was the second time we have stayed here and we love it! Quiet and convenient. We love having our coffee on the lanai watching the bunnies.
