Great house with an amazing view
Overall the house was great. The beds were surprisingly comfortable and the house had everything we needed, but the best part was the amazing view looking over the water. The pool was great as well, really loved the house.

Lovely Home and Grounds
The home is very comfortable. The air conditioning keeps the house cool and the king bed is very comfortable (there were only two of us). The kitchen is huge and has everything you need. The pool is large and the docks were great for fishing. There are lots of fish there. I used live shrimp and just dropped the line by the dock; no casting necessary. I caught several grey snappers and a yellow tail . I also had my line busted once and cut once by some large fish. Suggest using steel leaders. You can also catch all the catfish you want by casting and staying close to the bottom using a float. If you use a sinker you will hit bottom and collect a whole lot of moss. We look forward to staying here again.

Amazing in Palmetto
This house and it’s location was a dream! The kitchen had two sinks, two dishwashers and almost two of everything else with a drop dead water view. The dock left us speechless with how big it was. It had multiple parts and the lower level made it easy to drop the kayaks in with my teens. The kayaks are provided and you just have to get them from the garage to the dock which was easy with the fence gate. We even saw dolphins! The pool was gorgeous and changed colors at night. They even had solar powered adorable/cool lawn lights at night. It was easy to get to great restaurants and Instacart delivered our groceries including adult beverages right to the front door. Easy to get to Sarasota. The couch was perfect and cozy. Linens/Bedding/Towels were very nice. It was a short 4 night, 3 day day stay for a college tour and my kids didn’t want to leave. The owners were super helpful and the instruction book was great. When we did my daughter put her hand on the front door and said, “Goodbye beautiful house!”

Great Fishing spot
The cleaning lady was very nice and the home was pleasant. If you want Pina Colladas bring your blender as the one there had no jar. If you love an extremely soft bed then you will be happy, if you have a bad back you're probably better off on the couch. The pier and fish cleaning station is awesome, caught a lot of catfish and something really big that took our pole.
