About the owner: To all of you who LOVE Florida ...... SO DO WE !! We're a small family who wanted to enjoy Sarasota when we could so we decided this was the best way . So we began this adventure with a really cute home right near restaurants and shopping and close to Siesta Key ! I first saw Siesta when I was 9 yrs old and loved it . No beach compares to me. So we hope everyone enjoys the home as much as we do and find it just as relaxing !

Why this property? Gulf Gate is a tranquil little community near the Beach ! It has everything you need. So this home has 2 bedrooms , 2 baths , a private pool and almost no traffic ! It's very quiet and comfortable. So it was perfect with multiple restaurants , grocery store , and shopping center , all at the edge of the neighborhood !!

Guestbook comments from the host:

I’ve been rent this płace four times and always come back with pleasure. It’s clean, very good equiped house located close to the beach and stores.


Feb 2019

This was the perfect getaway with a pool right outside and an outdoor table to eat at, not to mention tasty restaurants and shopping nearby. With some private beach access points (as well as less private ones) not too far away, it was a perfect place for us to get away and relax. The neighbors were quiet and unobtrusive. Greenery and fences kept the pool and house private. We loved it so much we added a couple days on short notice, which the owners accommodated without any hassle. The cozy place was clean and had a nice kitchen. It worked perfectly for the two of us, but there was a whole other side of the house if we had kids or brought another couple to share it with. The owners were very easy to work with. We hope to return again!


Apr 2018

We have stayed now 2 years in a row at this lovely home. It's comfortable and laid back with a quaint private pool ! We're from England and have stayed in Sarasota several times but these last 2 years were the best with our stay. Home is really we'll stocked and the owners are very friendly to deal with. The Gulf Gate community is quiet and so close to everything. And of course Siesta Key ! Can't wait until we can make it back.


Sep 2017

The villa / condo is close to the best white sandy beach( Siesta Key) Publix Supermarket , Westfield shoping mall. Siesta village (The Daquiry Deck ) Friendly and helpful people to rent from. My family are returning for our third stay this year 2019..


May 2017

We liked the house very much and would consider going back there. It was clean and tidy and the pool was great. The weather in October November was also very good


Nov 2016

My family and I enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home! Owners were wonderful to work with and helped make our stay stress free and easy to enjoy! The location is perfect - near beautiful beaches, shopping, restaurants, and parks. We did everything we could think of! The home was fully equipped with all the dishes and land cooking wares, plenty of towels and beach towels, soaps, iron, hair dryer - just all the basics you need from day to day that some vacation homes lack. The view was gorgeous from the pool and spa, the dogs had plenty of room to wander and be confortable, the neighborhood is quiet and fun to walk. We rented a boat with Cape Coral Boat Rentals and everyone we talked to there were great! Very helpful and welcoming! I recommend hooking up with them if you're staying the the area - beautiful islands nearby to boat to, lots of fishing and wildlife to see!


Oct 2016

This house had everything we needed to enjoy our stay in Sarasota. Two bedrooms and two full baths fully furnished with all the amenities including a pool and PET FRIENDLY! Only minutes away from beautiful Siesta Key Beach. Reasonable rent and no hassle owners. They even had the place stocked with coffee!

Would Rent Here Again!

Karyn and Steve were beyond attentive and available throughout the trip. The house was clean upon arrival and close to everything. Excellent location and very short drive to the beach. The neighbors were even extremely friendly. Very quiet neighborhood and easy to walk the dogs around. I would highly recommend and would definitely stay here again!

Enjoyable, relaxing and convenient

We loved the location. It was only 3 miles from Siesta Key. We found the home to be very comfortable. The house is close to stores, restaurants and shopping. Great neighborhood to walk in, and we loved sitting out on the Lanai and swimming in the pool. Karyn and Steve were very friendly and easy to reach when we had a question. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful Vacation Home

We really enjoyed our stay at the Hewett's home on our May vacation to Sarasota. The home and pool were so relaxing with everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable, The residents at the gulf gate community were also very friendly and we enjoyed talking with the other people who lived there, Karyn was a delightful lady and also extremely helpful with an questions we had while staying there. We can't wait to return here on our next visit to Sarasota. Thank you again Karyn and Steve.

Absolutely Beautiful Home in Perfect Location

I cannot say enough about how wonderful my stay here was - from the relaxing lanai to the super soft bedding to the proximity to everything I could want and need, including Siesta Key - it was just perfect! The owners are incredibly kind and accommodating, too. If I am ever in the area again and this place is available, I am definitely booking here, without hesitation.

Peaceful Retreat

We enjoyed our 2 week peaceful retreat at this Gulf Gate home. Cute with some interesting architectural details. We talked to some folks, it’s believed this house was a model home when it was built in the 1960’s. The owners have updated the things that count the most … AC, appliances, flooring, lighting and ceiling fans. Plus probably things we didn’t see. The master bathroom is so unique. You’ll really enjoy this place. It’s so quiet in the neighborhood, we walked the whole area and it’s such a sweet place. The back yard and pool area is a tropical oasis. The owners have thought of everything you’d need to make your stay very enjoyable. We loved that our miniature poodle was able to stay with us too. My husband and I will definitely be returning next year and are planning to stay 3-4 weeks if it’s available. I almost forgot… you are close to everything within a few minutes. Unfortunately Red Tide was present during our stay on Siesta Key and Venice beach. But the silver lining was that we visited beaches up and down the coast we’d never been to before. Coquina Beach at the end of Longboat Key is a gem. Beautiful white sand, not as fine as Siesta’s but cool to walk on. We splurged and rented lounge chairs and an umbrella ($24) when we went (owners have them in the garage, which we never count on and always bring our own). That was a treat to have someone cone around every once in a while and if we’d like our umbrella position changed. I picked up food from Starfish Company on Cortez for a yummy beach picnic. There’s a great little cafe/grill run by the county and lifeguards as well. Caspersan Beach at the end of Venice Island was a favorite to shell hunt and find Shark’s teeth. We also tried out Englewood Beach, nice facilities and picnic area but you have to pay to park and the sand is very very hot to walk on. So if Red Tide should happen to be present during your stay don’t fret there’s plenty of other beaches and things to do and see.

Thank you so much Leigh for the five star review! So very nice of you to take the time to share so much information about the house and the area. The main reason we purchased this house for our personal vacation time was the fantastic location and being able to get pretty much anywhere in Sarasota County so quickly. We're glad you (and your pup) enjoyed your time at the house and look forward to having you guys back anytime!Karyn

Perfect pet friendly Beach House

Wonderful home in Gulf Gate section of Sarasota, close to beach, restaurants and shopping. Home is very well maintained and extremely clean and very comfortable. Screened in pool and lanai are very private with comfortable furniture. Equipped with all the amenities you would ever need. The neighborhood is very nice and great for walking fido. We enjoyed it so much we extended our stay. Owners Karyn and Steve are easy to reach and are eager to help in anyway. I would highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a tropical getaway.

The owners are easy to contact if need be, considerate, extremely organized, kind & helpful. Their home is comfortable, extremely clean, relaxing & very nice. You have everything you need. The neighborhood is beautiful, quiet & everything is convenient & easily accessible (ie: restaurants, shopping, etc). We couldn't ask for better. We highly recommend it!

Convenient location in a quiet neighborhood.

This cozy home is in a quiet neighborhood located just a short drive to the beach. The pool in the backyard is lovely. Shopping and dining is nearby via a short drive or bike ride.

Absolute Paradise

This house is so amazing! It's spacious and light. The kitchen is so great. It opens up to the pool. You can see the pool from just about everywhere in the house. I can't say enough good things about this house and the owners . It's beautiful on the outside and the inside. It's so close to the beach and everything else . Siesta Key village, restaurants, it has it's own little world also. It is truly something to behold.

A lovely pet friendly accessible home to beach, shopping and cycling trails!

This home situated in the well established Gulf Gate community was ideal! The home is warm, cozy and has all the amenities you would need. It has the feel of a well loved home with coastal decor and not "the early motel" feel. it is well cared for indeed. One of the selling features for us is that it is dog friendly, always a bonus for those of us who travel with pets. Also the owners provide detailed instructions to dog parks, vets and other things you may want to do if you after a first timer to the Sarasota area. Another selling feature for us is that the home is located in a community with lovely quiet streets, neighbours that say hello and is not just a rental community. The owners Steve and Karyn are easy to communicate with, friendly and accommodating. Their house manager Barbara is close by if you have any concerns and is also lovely to speak with if we had any concerns. Bike trails are an easy 3.5 kms. ride away where you can cycle to Venice and back. Shopping re grocery stores are within a few kms. or miles (Costco, Trader Joe's, Publix,Deweilers (best kept secret)) Also the Gulf Gate community is home to the Sarasota Brewing company and other small family owned businesses. You are able to cycle on a path right to these local establishments.. Siesta key is a 10 minute drive with lots of beach and adventure. Gulf Gate library is a 4 minus walk from the house. While the pool was not heated it was a welcome addition to challenge the spirit! Just sitting in the pool area on the comfy furniture relaxing was indeed lovely. We hope to return! Check it out, you won't be disappointed!
