We could not have dreamt of a more perfect month in Sarasota! It all centers on this wonderfully situated home, gorgeous tropical backyard, and massively well-equipped and comfortable living space. The house is walking distance to everything - restaurants, grocery stores, gym, shopping. It's a short drive (or bike) to the most beautiful (and huge) beach (Siesta Key), and not too far from downtown for culture and fun. The backyard has an immaculate, deep and perfectly temped pool, lots of sitting/relaxing choices, a hot tub, a fire pit, a grill, and is completely fenced with a boarder of palm trees for privacy (and exploring for our pets). The main bedroom has the most comfortable bed, and the living space is spacious and easy. Also, the kitchen has everything you need for gourmet meals galore. We absolutely loved our stay (it helped the weather was perfect), and we're already planning our return. Thank you to Christine for being the best, most responsive and accommodating host!
