We stayed in this condo when we were getting renovation work done on our house. The condo was excellent and the property managers were extremely responsive when we accidentally locked ourselves out. Would highly recommend this AIRBNB!

Excellent experience.

Everything was as presented. The owners were responsive and kind. Location was great in terms of accessibility to everything. The only minus was it wasn’t a location conducive for walking. Otherwise everything was spot on. Great amenities, lovely view. Overall terrific.

Host was communicative and the place was well designed and equipped with all the things we needed. Preparing for HOA and getting into the condo was a bit complicated compared to a hotel experience, but explained thoroughly and led to us feeling safe during our stay. We enjoyed having access to the amenities like the pool, gym, and kayak launch. Saw some great sunsets! The elevator was not working for several days, but I’m sure this is rare as the building seems new. The king bed was very firm, keep that in mind if you have a preference. Location was good, but having a car is needed as busy road was not enjoyable to walk on

Fantastic place. We have stayed at a ton of places, this was the best, most intuitive and well appointed pad. Great kitchen with all the basics and more. Great views and super quiet. My only reservation is providing such a stellar review will mean this place is unavailable when I need to next visit Sarasota. Mean it!

Response From: Orquera & Associates, Sales and Management, LLC

Dear William, what a fantastic review! We're thrilled you found our place the best you've stayed at. Thanks for highlighting the kitchen and views. We'll do our best to accommodate you on your next Sarasota visit.

This property was cute, had a beautiful view of the canal, beautiful kitchen and bathroom. It was a short drive, or walk into the downtown and the neighborhood was safe and secure. I would recommend this place for anyone.

Very pleasant & comfortable space. The photos & representation of the property were very accurate. Nice, new kitchen appliances & multiple coffee prep options. Water view from balcony was lovely (despite the red tide causing dead fish to occasionally float into the canal). Nice to have covered garage space available. Clara was very responsive & directions for access were clear. Our door code failed to work on our last evening there & Clara was able to re-set immediately while we were on the phone with her. She also was able to convince the owner that having a cabinet contractor come into the property for an entire day of work during our stay, was not a great idea. My only constructive suggestions for the condo would be that new bed linens & bath mats would be a good addition. All were clean, but tired.
Better quality toilet paper would be nice, also ; )
We enjoyed our stay at 304A and would not hesitate to return!

Location was Excellent, Condo was beautiful

Although hurricane Ian cut the visit short, the property was amazing and immaculate! The manager was extremely helpful during the evacuation process. The location was excellent right near downtown Sarasota and the condo was absolutely beautiful!!! Would stay again in a heartbeat!

Quite simply, it was the best Airbnb experience that I’ve ever had.

The unit is precisely as advertised, and possibly even better. The location is ideal for anyone wanting to enjoy Sarasota. The view out of the living room windows at sunset… my goodness.

Last but hardly least: Clara was a phenomenal host, communicative and compassionate throughout my stay. I can’t recommend this listing enough.
