We were in town for an event at the Ringling museum. The place was very convenient and comfortable. Good directions from owner and when we had an issue with missing coffee maker, she corrected right away.
The properly was clean and easy to find,
For a couple or a small size family, this home is perfect, nice privacy and it's got all the basic needs.
The only reason I gave a 4 Star in cleanliness is because we found small pieces of shells on the bed.
I would definitely recommend this place.
We stayed only night as a stop to meet up with the rest of our family for vacation. The host was friendly and very responsive with texts to inform us throughout the stay. The amenities were nice and the cottage was very nice.

Very Nice!
We enjoyed our stay at this cottage. It was so close to shopping, beaches and museums.
Clean home and well provisioned. Within walking distance of bay and some attractions we wanted to see. The grounds were a bit unkempt so first impression was not the best.
Very good location.
The property was well appointed with numerous supplementary items provided.
Attentive owner.
Would certainly consider a return visit.
Quaint & cozy cottage in beautiful neighborhood. Very comfortable and private. Host was very informative and quick to respond to needing a kitchen supply. Highly recommended!!
Cozy cottage, great location in quiet neighborhood.
We enjoyed our stay. The location is ideal for walking to the bay or driving to the wonderful restaurants in Sarasota! Easy drive to Siesta Key beach. The bed was very comfortable and the place was quiet. Jessica replaced an item that was missing within 15 minutes and when we had to adjust our vacation dates, Jessica was very helpful and accommodating.
We loved our visit! The property was beautiful and couldn’t have asked for a better situation! I would go so far as to say I doubt we would have been in a b
stayed for business... very charming space to come back to after working.... all is as described... very clean..king bed is very comfortable... the screened patio is great for a relaxing evening... sarah the propoerty mgr replies immediately and is lovely to deal with....will certainly return!
We enjoyed this quiet neighborhood as our home away from home. We entered the cottage through the side yard shared by our hosts and 2 family dogs. It is within walking distance to the Ringling complex with easy access to University Parkway and Tamiami Trail (Highway 41). Our hosts were very responsive and accommodating. We appreciated the king bed, washer and dryer, and screened in porch. We would definitely stay here again.
This cottage was located in a old beautiful quiet neighborhood.
We spend one afternoon walking around the area checking out the old homes and the new construction along the water. Location 3 blocks from Ringling Museums.
The bed and AC were good.
We did not cook, made nachos once, however the kitchen items were limited and old.. Did make coffee each morning
Very slow internet and it kept going off. No regular TV.
They could use a nightlight in the bathroom, luckily I travel with one.
We loved our visit to Saratoga and the delightful cute cottage we rented. The location was perfect. We enjoyed a day at the beach, a visit to the Ringling museum, and lots of fabulous food. I wouldn’t change a thing!
Such a peaceful little getaway! Quiet neighborhood and the hosts were extremely friendly and accommodating.I will absolutely book this adorable property in the future!
I had a very peaceful and quiet respite at the property. A nice park with benches is just a short walk to the West with a view of the bay. I was worried with the Airport so close that I might hear planes all night, but I didn't hear any during my time there.
