Wonderful property!

We really enjoyed our stay here! Love the way the home is decorated and the attention to small details. Usually, I need to borrow a bunch of things from family and friends but not in this wonderful house. Location is close to everything and just 10 minutes to the beach at Siesta Key!

Great Sarasota Stay

We were looking for accommodation for our 1 week stay in Sarasota and Tropical Retreat was the perfect place! The home had everything we needed and we appreciated the extra attention to detail! The close proximity to Siesta Key had us at the beach when we weren’t golfing! Great vibe and we loved the lanai.

Perfect stay for families in Sarasota

We had a wonderful stay in this vacation home, it has everything you need for a short or long term stay. The home is very clean, well decorated, and is appointed with quality items, including sheets, towels, and kitchenware. In addition, we appreciated the family-specific items such as a playpen, and loved the outdoor spaces and spacious garage for laundry and beach items. The hosts are very responsive and friendly. We would 100% recommend this home to others.

Great Christmas vacation

We stayed for a week over Christmas and had a lovely time. Linda was very patient with some requests from my mother. With the four season room and screened-in porch the house is quite spacious. We loved eating on the porch! Kitchen is well stocked. Location is super convenient to Siesta Key. We would stay again!

Wonderful Place

Everything was perfect about the home. The place is spotless, beds are comfortable, the outside porch and eating area are very nice and it is in a good location. The host, Linda, even went out of her way to help my husband get a football game on. Thank you!

Paradise

My family and I loved our stay! This was our first time to Florida and it did not disappoint. We spent 5 days at Linda's property and absolutely loved having a screened in porch. We wished we could've stayed longer. Being so close to everything but yet in a quiet neighborhood. If you like having locally sourced fruits, vegetables and meats, visit Detwiler's Farm Market, a short jaunt from the house. We will be back!

Amazing Family Friendly

This property was so nice! So clean, and provided different spaces for the kids to separate to minimize arguments. The on site washer and dryer were so needed! The beach chairs and umbrella and boogie boards were awesome! We bought sand toys and left behind for the next guests! Linda is an amazing host and provides a quality property! The home is only 5 minutes from the island, close to shopping and restaurants. Perfect place!!!♥️♥️
