This is the second time I have used Anna's property. This time was for my daughter. I knew the location was quiet, safe and walkable to downtown. Anna's properties are clean, well appointed and well decorated. Her communication is quick and she is extremely easy to work with. We will be using Anna's properties every time we come to Sarasota. You will not be dissapointed.

What a beautiful house and location. My fiancée and I stayed here leading up to our wedding and couldn’t have been happier. Anna was proactive in communicating and gave detailed instructions on logistics and parking. Would absolutely love to visit again.

Our family cannot thank Anna enough! She is a fantastic host. Her apartment in Sarasota was perfect for our family birthday celebrations. I don’t believe I had to ask one question before during or after our stay. We received all information in a timely, efficient and super friendly manner. The apartment was squeaky clean and beautifully furnished. It was located in the safe and picturesque historic district of Sarasota within walking distance to the entire city and harbor. There is a little cinema across the street from the apartment and a restaurant a block away with the kindest staff. We will definitely return to stay here again. Thank you Anna!
