I love Verlaine’s place. It’s decorated beautifully, it’s comfy and feels like home away from. I come to Sarasota for work. This was my 2nd stay and am planning on staying here, fingers crossed, if it’s available every time I come down for work!
Our host was amazing and the home was beautiful. We had everything we needed, plus! Would definitely recommend and will come back for a repeat booking!
I have stayed here before and from start to finish the hosts are amazing. The unit is safe & clean. I usually travel alone for work and as a woman staying alone I sleep like a baby. The unit is clean and so relaxing. 10 out of 10!!! I will be booking my next trip soon!
Verlaines place was fabulous. I don’t think I have stayed at a cleaner and more comfy place. Lots of attention to detail and nice comfy towels and bed. I was there for work so didn’t use alot of the facilities but loved the beautiful landscaping . Would highly recommend this place .
Verlaine was a great host and her property was exactly like the pictures. She has my kind of taste and the apartment had everything you would need and more! She must be an interior designer as everything was so well put together and just so quaint! The neighborhood is very quiet and easy to navigate around. Siesta Key is a 15 minute drive from her property. Her green thumb is quite impressive as well! So many beautiful plantings and flowers. We will be back!
The apartment is perfect for a vacation it has everything you would need.

I felt like the property had a little of everything. Nice private hot tub. Full kitchen to cook. Laundry to make your travels easier. Beautiful garden with creek access. Bathroom big enough for two to get ready. Everything you need out of a small space to enjoy a vacation. Very welcoming and homey feel to it.
This is a lovely unit. Clean and comfortable and nicely decorated. The hosts were friendly and available. We didn't get a chance to use the hot tub; but maybe we will the next time we go to Sarasota, because we would be happy to stay here again. Very close to Pinecraft and the Amish restaurants in Sarasota. We didn't cook while we were there but the appliances were up to date and the laundry is right off the bedroom. Much nicer than a motel.
This is a great studio fully equipped with attention to detail. Very comfy bed and luxurious linens. Would definitely stay again. Location was ideal for us as it is near the family we were visiting. Very quiet.
Apartment is attached to the owner’s home. It is very clean and well furnished. It is a safe neighborhood that is close to downtown and the beaches. The owner’s are quite respectful people. I would recommend this rental property.
Beautiful and clean location. Best part of our trip was the property (only issue for us was the mattress could use a replacement and cooler sheets) The property was super cute and we would stay there again. We enjoyed walking the neighborhood too, felt safe.
Cozy, fully equipped and absolutely gorgeous flower garden
My 3 kids and I loved it. Had everything we needed. Host was very sweet and attentive. The walkway is absolutely beautiful. Lots of little lizards that I also enjoyed watching while drinking my coffee. Very convenient to our favorite beach(Siesta Key). Will definitely be back and recommend to friends.

The apartment was very clean and comfortable, very nice for the three of us. It had everything needed for our stay with a fully equipped kitchen, very nice bathroom with walk in shower and comfortable beds.
This was great stay. The room was nice, clean, and had everything we needed. Verlaine was communicative and helped us whenever we needed anything. Neighborhood was nice and safe and close to the places we went. I would recommend this place if you are considering staying.
We stayed for four nights. The property is very welcoming and clean! It is stocked will all the amenities we needed and then some! Nice quiet neighborhood and a very quiet backyard to enjoy. The host is very accommodating and easy to communicate with. Definitely will stay here again when we visit!
This was perfect for what we needed. It was clean and easy to use. We didn’t have any issues and the host had everything organized which made the stay smooth.
