Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Bayshore Gardens

Phyllis' "comfy and quaint" home in Sarasota truly lived up to its name. The outside of the home was beautifully landscaped and had a conveniently attached carport. The decor inside was fun and inviting. There were lots of areas to sit throughout the home- including a screened in porch/dining area. The kitchen was well-stocked and also had a juicer that was fun to use. The home was within walking distance of multiple local shops and restaurants, including the delicious "Mirna's Cuban Cuisine." The best part is that it was only a 15 minute drive to St. Armand's Circle and Lido Key Beach which is where the majority of our time was spent. Phyllis provided a few beach items which were so convenient- in addition to towels, there was a Bogg beach bag, a cooler, a sand mat, and now we have added to the collection with some boogie boards for the next guests. Phyllis was great about communicating with us and very kind. We would highly recommend staying here!

Stop what you are doing and BOOK THIS PLACE!! Clean and spacious home ✔️ Fully stocked kitchen (pots, pans, glasses, condiments, spices, etc) ✔️ Tons of amenities like hot tub, fire pit, egg chairs, hibachi grill, golfing area, etc ✔️ All the beach equipment that you need (chairs, tent, snorkel, masks) ✔️ PLUS the best Host who was always quick to respond to any questions and even installed a new thermostat while we were there because the old one was messing up the temp and we like a cool 70 degrees at home ✔️ And if that wasn’t amazing enough, the host also took us on TWO BOAT TRIPS!!! All we paid for was the gas and any drinks or snacks that we wanted to bring (plus a tip since the boat tours were the highlight of the trip). Vlad knew all the best spots for private island time, snorkeling, and dolphin watching!! In all honesty I spent a fair amount of time trying to decide if I wanted to write an accurate review or gatekeep this hidden gem… I decided not to gatekeep.

Jeff and Ingrid are extremely attentive hosts and were proactive in reaching out to ensure check in and the stay was smooth sailing. The house is in a very peaceful neighborhood and felt right at home. I’d say the house in person is better than the pictures of it online.

We were in Bradington, so my son could attend an event at IMG Academy. IMG Academy was about six minutes from the house. It was a perfect location for us. The house was beautiful and the pool was amazing. During our stay, I had a few questions and requests all of which were answered and taken care of very quickly. I truly appreciate it. When we were back in the area, we definitely would stay here again.

We had a fantastic stay at Kara’s place. So much room to hang out for the 4 of us. The outdoor patio and pool area were a great place to hang out at the end of the day. We had access to the grill which worked out great. There was a washer AND dryer for laundry. Living room and kitchen was a great hang out place. We had such a great time !

Outstanding experience!

Absolutely pristine place, the house is amazing, location is perfect and loaded with everything you need. Great host as well , we would love to come back to this place.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful beach house in Bradenton, FL. The home was spacious, clean, and had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. There were plenty of towels and blankets, which made it super convenient for our group. The location was great—just a short drive to the beach—and the house itself was cozy and well-maintained. We really appreciated the thoughtful touches and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

1000/10 RECOMMEND !!! Love love love the aesthetic of this place, Jeremy was super helpful and accommodating and the space has absolutely everything you need! Loaded closet with all the beach supplies you need AND a wagon to tote it all around! The space was super cozy and also got a cute little welcome basket with things to use during your stay! We will definitely be coming back to this space for our annual florida trip!

John’s place was everything we hoped for and more. Along with the walkability, great restaurants and all the other things listed, I don’t think people understand how important a comfortable bed is at an Airbnb. I mean a bed is really you need, if you’re going to be at the beach the whole time! The KING sized bed was memory foam and super comfy. Also great to kick back after an “exhausting” day in the sun and watch the ginormous TV in the comfortable huge bed. Just wow! Wished we would have stayed longer. Great recommendations, communication, ease of parking. Ugh, the beach cart really came in handy and the two beach chairs. Love love love this turquoise gem!!

My second stay here. Always clean, great for 1 or 2 people. Beth is great and super helpful if you need anything. Would definitely recommend. I’ll certainly book another stay on my next trip to Tampa!

Amr is a great host. Was very responsive and everything was just as described. We also asked about a pack n play and he had a brand new one there before we arrived. The location and view of the ocean from so many windows and the back deck was even better than we could have asked for. The extra room with beach chairs and toys was a very nice bonus as well. Will always look at his properties if ever staying in this area.

Dirk & Erika was an amazing The house was beautiful. It felt like home we didn’t wanna leave lol thank you so much. We enjoyed every bit.

The place was immaculately located and maintained

Wonderful place, extremely clean, peaceful area good place to chill!

It was a great place close to the beach literally 5 minutes walking , Amazing place I will come back !!

Beautiful home, wife and I really like it a lot!

The house was a little smaller than expected, but still had everything we were looking for. We had a slight problem with the lights in the bathroom during our second day, but Eric was quick to respond to our concerns and helped us resolve the issue. The hot tub was an amazing added feature which we utilized every night and the instructions for check-in and check-out were clear and concise and easy to understand. Overall we had an amazing experience and I would highly recommend any couple to stay in this Airbnb.

My family and I had a great time . The pool was great and the house was clean and had everything we needed and listed on the description. The AC thermostat was locked but I texted host and he responded almost immediately and adjusted temp to my liking. We felt like at home . We had no issues and I would recommend this place to other people. It is a great place to stay for families specially with kids like ours.

This was such a gem 💎 of a place to find. We loved the spaciousness of the house, enjoyed the front and backyard sitting areas, appreciated -

B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L. Home! Wonderfully decorated. Super clean. Lovely backyard oasis. Loved the ping pong and pool for the times it would rain. TV’s in every area was nice too! Would definitely stay here again!

Kat’s place was AMAZING, this was our 3rd year staying at Crescent Arms however our first year with Kat at Villa 7 and in our opinion it has been the nicest by far!! Kat was very helpful from start to finish. The place was spectacular we literally didn’t need or want for anything!! Can’t wait to go back!!!

We loved Paula and Roberto’s house. It is beautifully landscaped and decorated. The bedrooms are all spacious. The kitchen was surprisingly well equipped. I don’t think that there was anything that we needed that we didn’t have. The screened in porch and pool were heavenly. We had seven adults and three kids and a dog and I would say that the game room was the biggest hit after the pool. Paula and Roberto accommodated an early check-in for our family with two small children that were flying in early. I would highly recommend this Airbnb.

This was the most beautiful and accommodating Air Bnb I’ve ever stayed in. Everything was new, clean, and updated with the latest technology. The toilet seats were even heated! We had a group of 9 plus a dog and everyone was very happy with the stay. Marcin was super nice and always answered questions quickly. The pool area is incredible. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to make meals and the bathrooms were stocked with plenty of essentials.
