Two months of happiness!!!!!
We stayed at the “Peaceful Oasis”, for the months of February and March and LOVED IT. Owner was most gracious and accommodating after I realized I had booked us checking out March 31st, Easter. Owner allowed us to stay an extra night so we could celebrate with family instead of leaving that day. Upon arrival, the home was spotless and lovely, spacious and well appointed. The kitchen had a vast supply of pots, pans, dishes, and everything a cook would want. It was delightful for me to have such a large space to operate! The kitchen window overlooked the fabulously enormous lanai and pool area. It’s a wonderful, very friendly neighborhood on a quiet street.The bedrooms had terrifically comfortable beds and bathrooms were great. Huge garage with an extra fridge/freezer was a definite plus. We were happy to find a wine refrigerator in the laundry room. We did plenty of laundry in the two months and those machines worked very well. The living room was large, nice furniture and the TV a wonderful size to watch NCAA basketball and golf tournaments. The dining room was perfect for the evenings that were too chilly to eat on the lanai which was only a handful of times. Our weather was glorious! The swimming pool was FABULOUS! It was the perfect temperature for us…nice and warm! (cleaned weekly) Many hours were spent with family just relaxing in and around the pool and lanai living area. We are SO EXCITED to have it booked again next year! Best home away from home EVER!

Sadly, an Awful Christmas-time Stay
I’ll start stating that I’m pursuing a refund for our stay, and have submitted a complaint through Stay Neighborly. I am awaiting financial resolution from the owner. We had planned to stay nearly a week, but arrived to a house with no running water, inconsistent AC, water heater off, pool heater off and temperature at 67 degrees, and incorrectly listed as having a hot tub when there is only a spa. It being the holidays and the owner non-local, the property manager could not remedy in a timely fashion, and when the property manager did come out, did not fully resolve issues. We documented all household issues throughout and shared with owner promptly. We checked in when the water was successfully running. The AC did not run reliably, the main bedroom fan was too loud to run overnight (owner said she couldn’t fix), pool too cold to use. A rotten egg smell emanated the house (owner said smell was normal); however, in the 20 years I’ve been coming to Sarasota, a smell that strong is not. Ultimately we had to vacate the property early because we awoke to no running water, and had to scramble to find alternative housing on short notice. This is no small task, with children, over the holidays, and certainly not how we wanted to be spend our vacation. Sadly this was the most unpleasant VRBO or similar experience I’ve ever had. It is too bad, as rentals are difficult to find in this great neighborhood and we would have loved to find a new “go to” for our frequent trips here.

Perfect stay
The house had everything we needed. Quiet neighborhood near Nathan Benderson Park and lots of shopping/restaurants. The pool was great too.

Nice property
The pictures online were exactly as advertised. Nice size bedrooms. Nice pool, patio with a grill. Quiet neighborhood. Close to UTC shopping. The only negative were the ants in the kitchen and the host didn't respond to messages, otherwise we loved our stay.

Review of stay at the Meadows in Sarasota
The house was extremely clean and comfortable. There were 5 adults in our group with comfortable beds and ample space. The location was excellent with less than a mile to Nathan Benderson Park where we were attending the National Collegiate Rowing Championships. The owner was very helpful and provided clear information and instructions for our stay.

Last minute April vacation
The house was exactly as shown and more. The pool and spa were amazing and clean and warm. There was plenty of bed linens and towels. The place is close to all the stores and a 20 minute drive to some nice beaches.
