FIND YOUR HAPPY PLACE

Wonderful location & super cute beach house!

Location is very close to Marina Jack's, a five minute drive. Close to a publix store in case you forgot to bring anything for vacation. We enjoyed the special touches and it was a great escape for us!!

Great place, all like described.

Great space & amenities. Perfect location.

The Fischer Rental was highly recommended to us and it lived up to its expectation. Especially since it was our first time in AMI. The apartment was clean, neat and had everything my family of 4 needed including laundry. We would definitely stay again as it felt like home for 8 days. The location was ideal, the block was quiet, the private entrance to the beach was perfect and the friendly neighbors were a plus. My kids are already planning their return trip. The only thing I would say was a bummer, my husband and I would have loved to sit on the front porch (when it rain/sprinkled) to mellow out and talk but unfortunate the top balcony didn't cover us - my personal preference.Stephanie, has exceptional costumer service and easily able to contact when having questions prior to trip, very professional and polite. I loved how she checked in with us to assure all was going well during our trip. RETURNING FOR SURE!!!!

Beautiful studio style space with lovely furnishings. Would definitely stay again!

The location was great. The only let down was that there is now a 3-story building next door Great property, esp. for beach access

Great house. Tons of room. Tons of supplies, kitchen accessories, towels, beach accessories etc. Great backyard and pool. House just off a main road but you hear nothing. Super quiet. 7-10 mins to SK public beach, 5-7 to SK Village. Will definitely stay again.

The space was great! Very clean, special little touches, like snacks and drinks for my stay!

Perfect location! Very close to a great beach, easy walking distance to restaurants. Well stocked kitchen for cooking. Very clean, could not ask for more.

Great location The location of the property was excellent. We could walk to the beach in less than 1 minute. The property was well maintained, inside was clean and had everything we needed. The property owner (Stephanie) was awesome in regards to a small HVAC issue. Highly recommend this place, and we will be returning.

This is a great place with an amazing proximity to the beach…literally, steps away. The house has everything you need and a shed with complimentary beach chairs and items to make the experience. I really appreciate the that Stephanie provided and the small things to make you feel appreciated & welcomed.

Stephanie’s carriage house was a perfect landing place after days of long walks enjoying everything this great city has to offer. She offered a very personal touch (including tech support from her son if I needed it) which I appreciated. This was a great way to be in the heart of town without being in a crowded hotel room. Thank you, Stephanie!

Such a perfect AirBnb. The space is so cozy and pretty, perfect size for two people and has every amenity you could ask for. Perfectly clean and so well organized and set up. Stephanie left a sweet welcome card and some snacks and water and was very responsive and friendly in communicating. I actually wish we had more time here. Truly a perfect experience.

Look no further for the most perfect of rentals on Ana María Island- peaceful, comfortable, super clean, all amenities needed for a perfect relaxed vacation and within steps of the beach. I’m so glad we chose Stephanie as our hostess. She was very accessible to any questions we had. We even got to meet her in person which was super cool cause she’s super nice. We consider this our home away from home and will be our choice for our next visit to this gorgeous island. Thank you Stephanie for being such a gracious and kind hostess.

Fischer Vacation Rentals are very professional & efficient. They were friendly & very helpful with our requests/needs. The home is cozy & comfortable. We especially enjoyed the location close to the beaches, grocery stores & shopping. The screened porch & ample dock space on the canal were our "at home paradise." The parking & beach equipment were appreciated. We definitely will come back!

We loved everything about this vacation rental! The house was clean, beds were comfortable and the location on Anna Maria is outstanding! Stephanie is very responsive. This is our 2nd visit to this house and we hope to continue our Thanksgiving tradition with them on Anna Maria, FL.

Locatie is geweldig, huis prima en de hulp en verzorging van Stephanie, Fischer rentals is geweldig!

This house is great for beach access, beautiful location and all one needs to enjoy a great vacation.

A Slice of Paradise The Sleepy Lagoon Bungalow is perfection! It's location is easily accessible and in a quiet neighborhood. The house was very clean and furnished with everything you could possibly need. We will definitely return and next time we will bring our boat!

Seaside Sanctuary was Awesome! Literally, seconds to the beach and the most beautiful Sunsets! Seaside Sanctuary was the best, was clean and just as described in listing, literally just a few steps from front door and your on the beach. If you want a worry free vacation just call Stephanie. She literally thought of everything. My only regret was we didn’t stay longer. Thanks Stephanie!! For all your help!!!

Great place - great location!

Generous host, exceptionally clean space with everything we needed provided, and convenient location to downtown. We had an amazing weekend and look forward to visiting again soon!

Me and my boyfriend stayed at the carriage house for a weekend getaway and it was lovely. Stephanie was an amazing host and she was easy to communicate with when it came to any request’s and questions/concerns we had. We enjoyed how the carriage home was so close to downtown so we used the bikes that Stephanie provided for us to explore the town. The kayaks were also a fun plus to top it all off! Loved how clean and organized everything was and I would definitely recommend anyone to come and stay at this Airbnb!

One of my best Airbnb stays! Excellent communication, fabulous location and just enough checking in to make sure everything was good! Very clean, quiet (except for lovely birdsong when I walked outside) and the massage chair was a welcome treat! Thank you for a great stay in Sarasota while I taught at Marie Selby! Loved that I could walk to the Ringling Bridge each morning for sunrise and a short drive to Lido for sunset! Such lovely wonderful hosts! I highly recommend this little gem of a place!!!

Loved staying at the Carriage House. There was so much thought and detail in what a guest would need and want included. Loved the book about the area and suggested hot spots included in the manual. Just wish we had more time to spend visiting.

The place was great! It's in a perfect spot. All eataries, beaches, and shopping places are close to the room! Room was very clean. It was a great vacation, can't wait to go back!

Can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed our week here! The house is in such a perfect location on the island, close to shops, dining & so so close to the beach! We had an amazing week!

This is a great place for a couple to stay in Sarasota! Cute and cozy studio style set up with great amenities! Stephanie is very responsive, and has prepared a binder with an abundance of tips/suggestions for exploring the area. Would absolutely stay again!

We loved Stephanie’s house very much. It was perfect for a family of 4, spacious, bright, clean and very welcoming. Some of the best features is 2 bathrooms and a nice size kitchen. Kitchen has all the utensils needed for cooking. The location is perfect, about a minute walk to the beach. Stephanie was very quick to reply to my messages and I really appreciated that. If we get to come back to Anna Maria, we will definitely try to stay at Stephanie’s house again.

Having stayed in dozens of homes in the past years, the care and preparation for this place is outstanding. I particularly enjoyed a bike and kayak trip during my stay. Very cool bennie. And don't get me started on the massage chair.... yeah.

Wonderful place to stay! The location is perfect for walking around the downtown.

What a fantastic place to stay! The space is beautifully decorated, there are many thoughtful touches throughout, and the bathroom was nice and big. We loved having our coffee in the patio area in the morning.

VIP Air Bnb experience!!!! Beautiful space with such personal touches throughout the space. I look forward to returning very soon. Super Amazing Host!!! Thank you

Even though we read many glowing reviews for Stephanie's Carriage House, our stay still exceeded expectations. Communication was excellent. Stephanie was attentive and accommodating. The space was very clean with quality furnishings. The bed was very comfortable. Location is great. The neighborhood is very quiet, yet close to everything. We are thankful to Stephanie for sharing this with us,

The location of this property on the Northern Point of Anna Maria Island, literally steps to the pristine beach, is ideal. We park the car and when not on the beach we walk or take the trolley to dining etc. Stephanie and Mike are gracious hosts and respond immediately to any problems. Morning walks on the beach and afternoon happy hours on the deck with ocean views on a quiet street are very relaxing. We highly recommend this property.

We really enjoyed our two night stay at Stephanie's carriage house in downtown Sarasota. Stephanie was there when we arrived and gave us a friendly welcome. The room was very clean, new and comfortable. It was a 5 minute walk to Owen's Fish Camp where we joined friends for a fun, unique dinner. The next morning we walked to the Toasted Mango for breakfast, a 25 minute stroll across downtown shopping district and past the Opera House. Complimentary coffee provided by Stephanie tasted especially good. As the posting says, you need to be able to climb a full set of stairs to get to the room. No problem for us. We would definitely return and recommend to others.

Exceeded my expectations. Had everything we needed and more. Location was perfect. Massage chair was an extra treat!

Great location!

If you plan on visiting Sarasota, you can't beat this perfect little carriage house. It's in a quiet neighborhood but only a short walk to the hub of activity in downtown Sarasota. We explored other towns and beaches during the day and walked downtown every night. We loved our stay. The place is clean, comfortable, private, and has just about everything you would need. So much better than staying in a hotel! Not to mention, Stephanie was a very attentive and helpful host. You won't be disappointed if you decide to stay here.

This has been our 4th year staying at the Seaside Sanctuary and we can’t say enough good things about it. Everything is clean, organized and well equipped for your beach/vacation needs. It has easy beach access, parking, laundry and is close to shopping. Stephanie is a great host! We will definitely be back next year!

Stephanie's place was a perfect holiday retreat for our family of four. The quaint size was ideal for quality family time. This cheerful place on AMI was the perfect location for making memories that will last a life time.

We hebben super genoten van dit zalige huis! De communicatie met Stephanie was vlot en hartelijk. Het huis is comfortabel, gezellig, en voorzien van alles wat je nodig hebt, inclusief strandmateriaal. Het witte strand leek soms wel een privéstrand, zo rustig is het. En het is echt maar enkele stappen verwijderd van het huis. Er zijn fijne restaurants in de buurt, een doughnutshop om de hoek, en voor de rest ligt het huis centraal genoeg voor uitstappen. Een dikke aanrader! Bij een volgend bezoek aan Florida kom ik zeker terug en boek ik zelfs langer...

Excellent location. Close to downtown and the marina.

Great little carriage house in fabulous location. Very clean and quiet, really private !

Great Host! Beautiful house, and Right by the beach.

Stephanie's carriage house is all and then some. My husband probably would agree that his favorite thing was the massage chair! The carriage house is super clean and cozy and short distance to downtown Sarasota. Stephanie is very easy to communicate with and made our stay very comfortable. We are looking forward to our next visit and stay at Stephanie's carriage house! Stephanie is one of the best hosts we ever had!

Great place to stay!

Great place for my family. House was very clean. Accommodations are wonderful. Pool and patio area is very nice.

Great location! Quiet street and steps away from the beach. Within walking distance to The Sandbar, The Donut Experiment and Poppo's Taqueria, all of which we recommend but go early or there will be a wait. We did not even hear the tenants upstairs so no concerns with it being a duplex. Plenty of beach chairs and floats for both units to share. Stephanie was great and very responsive!

This house was absolutely perfect for our family. We had a great experience thanks to everything Stephanie provided us in the house. All the kid toys (that kept them entertained lol) games, beach towels, floatings, cooler and soo much more. We loved how the house had the perfect beach house style and ALL the details in frame were amazing. The house is literally steps away from the beach. Everything was very clean and
organized. Long story short, we LOVED this house!

The Carriage House was impressively clean and orderly, and centrally located near so many Sarasota sites. The unit has most everything a guest would need. Especially loved the location: It's walking distance to the farmers market, Selby Botanic Garden, Sarasota's Main Street with many restaurants and shops, as well as near the waterfront and general downtown area. Stephanie is a wonderful host who provided very helpful information on Sarasota sites to visit and was quick to respond to questions. We would definitely stay there again when visiting Sarasota. Highly recommended.

Amazing location with accommodating hosts! Thank you, Stephanie for sharing your piece of paradise with our family. Planning to be back next summer!

We loved this adorable spot. So close to the beach and comfortable living space. Stephanie is awesome and we felt right at home!!

We have stayed here before. It is a great location. Stephanie and Mike are very helpful and receptive. The property is comfortable and as is described. Would recommend staying here without any qualms.

This property was more than I expected. We had an amazing 14 day stay The perfect place to stay for a getaway. They home away from home but with nothing to do but enjoy ourselves, walk the beach just a couple blocks away, lay by the screened in pool, and enjoy the lagoon just out our back porch. The owners have thought of everything!
We have already booked for our next vacation. Such an amazing place to relax.

This house and the amenities was better then expected. The house was very clean and comfortable Clean Spacious comfortable! Great for long term stays!

Excellent stay. Perfect Studio setting. Accommodations and amenities were greatly appreciated. Thank you Stephanie!

We had a great stay at Stephanie's Carriage House! She is a wonderful, responsive and helpful hostess answering all our questions and ensuring that our stay was great. Highly recommend!

Excellent location, perfect for our short stay in Sarasota. Stephanie and Mike were great hosts and so responsive, we loved our time in the Carriage House!

AMAZING LOCATION. Everything you could want is within walking distance or no more than 20 minute driving. Stephanie was very accommodating and great at checking in with anything needs. Clean, relaxing and super convenient.

The house is beautiful, great location, very nice and quiet neighborhood. So many needed items provided. Stephanie is a superior host, very accommodating. Highly recommend.

The Carriage House was the PERFECT accommodations for our stay in Sarasota! We chose Stephanie's place because of the amenities it offered: kayaks, bikes, beach gear, equipped kitchenette…we thoroughly enjoyed the use of these. Seeing a manatee in the wild during one of our kayaking outings was a huge thrill for us! Biking over the Ringling Bridge was cool, too! One of our favorite things about this vacation rental was its location - close to several beautiful beaches (short car ride), and the walkability it was to the downtown area. We were quite impressed with Sarasota - it's a really lovely, clean, small city. The restaurant vibe downtown was so fun - we had some really great dining experiences: Brewster's (fantastic burgers!), El Melvin (Mexican - great happy hour food deals & SO yummy!), Mattison’s City Grille (delicious food, nice ambiance & live music), Clasico Italian Chophouse (tasty pasta dishes & live piano music), and Main St Creamery (some of the best ice cream we've ever had!). Our weather was awesome - sunny, mid 80s & little humidity - perfect for beach days (our top being Lido Beach, followed by Siesta & Crescent beaches) & also for romantic sunset strolls through Waterfront Park. We appreciated Stephanie's above & beyond touches that enhanced our stay: a beach bag, cooler, ice packs, beach chairs & umbrella, snacks and beverages. Can't fly with all that beach gear! Stephanie was a top-notch hostess & was easily accessible if we had an inquiry. We would highly recommend a stay at her Carriage House! We look forward to being able to stay again sometime, or at one of the other Fischer Vacation Rentals when we're traveling to the area.

Excellent location and hosts. Beautiful beach very close and everything you need close by.

Stephanie’s place was fantastic! Very clean, great location and easy to find. Amenities were great also. Perfect for a weekend getaway or for an extended stay. Stephanie was very prompt at responding and was always available for any questions. I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to stay in Sarasota!

Stephanie’s apartment exceeded our expectations. It was sparkling clean and perfectly laid out. There were so many personal touches and she has thought of everything!
The location is great for touring around on the bikes and walking around downtown. We were able to park our car and bike around for our entire stay.
Stephanie responded very quickly whenever we had any questions and had lots of local tips.
Can’t say enough great things about our stay and Stephanie’s carriage house!

Very clean place with exceptional service. Stephanie was very accommodating and you cannot beat the price for that area. We will be back

Stephanie was a great host, and her guest house was immaculate, stylish, and very comfortable. Check out Owen’s Fish Camp for food and Marie Shelby Gardens for showy orchids. Both are within easy walking distance.

Very lovely space, we enjoyed our stay. We got very comfortable as soon as we checked in and it’s in quiet neighborhood but close to awesome restaurants and other activities! Thank you so much!

Fantastic location. Great layout for vacations. Accès to the beach and all needed gears to do a lot if nothing 😉

Fantastic location!!! We added a bonus day to our first trip to AMI and really appreciated so much about this vacation property.

Stephanie was extremely responsive and accommodating to our situation and worked hard to provide early access as we were in between stays. Check in was very detailed and thorough.

The house had many special touches such as a welcome treat for our dogs and cold bottles water/soda! The location is fantastic, literally steps from the beach.

After staying near Holmes Beach the previous week, we really loved the quieter end of the island and the house being at the end of the street, so no traffic. We enjoyed a nice carry-out dinner on the front porch with a lovely breeze! Yet the location is still close to Pine St shopping and area restaurants.

10/10 would recommend staying here. I’ve been to Sarasota several times and this location is perfect. We walked to most things downtown, we biked over to Lido Key. Stephanie is an excellent host. Quick to respond and had great suggestions. Can’t express how perfect this stay was ❤️

Home is very clean and cozy and loved how it was steps from the ocean. Will definitely stay again!

This is the perfect place to stay in AMI! It’s in a quiet area, just steps to the beach and very close to Pine ave! We visited during a busy time but the beach we walked to from the house was far from being crowded. Host was very accommodating. Wished we could’ve stayed longer!!

Great house. Sparkling clean, excellent communication. Perfect location. Could not have had a better experience. We absolutely plan on staying in this house in the future!

My family and I are local to Tampa, FL. We rented the beach house on Anna Maria Island for a few days for a staycation. It was just what we needed. The beach path is so close to the house you can see the water from the porch. The place was very clean and close to everything we needed during our stay!

Look no further than Stephanie's place. It has everything. EXCELLENT accommodations, PERFECT location, all at a GREAT price!! Loved it so much we've decided to move to Sarasota.

Stephanie’s carriage house is the perfect little getaway, located near downtown, but just far enough away to provide peace and quiet. The place is stylish and impeccably clean. She is a wonderful host and my wife and I would return again.

PERFECT! Perfect house! Perfect host! Perfect location!! Our family had the best time! We can't wait to come back!! Thank you, Stephanie!

Perfect house by the beach! Also a very clean house.

Stephanie was a great host and the carriage house is conveniently located. Siesta, Lido both easily accessible. Quiet neighborhood with many amenities and attractions within walking distance.

My wife and I loved staying a week at Stephanie’s. She was a great host and provided us with excellent recommendations of things to see and do. The location is very convenient and within walking distance of a variety of restaurants and attractions, such as a botanical garden. The included use of bikes, a kayak and beach equipment was a definite bonus that saved us additional expense. The place was super clean and included everything advertised. We would definitely rent this place again for a future trip to Sarasota.

Beautiful home and location. This house has everything you need and want truly your home away from home

Great place to stay, even better than the photos. Would recommend to anyone!!

This is a great location and the host is easy to deal with. Perfect for a small family. This house is on a quiet street even has a bike rack! We stayed upstairs and it had everything we needed for our stay including beach chairs, umbrellas and sand buckets. I would recommend this place for folks looking for a relaxing, close-to-the-beach place to stay.

This place is just as described... and it is sooo cool. I read the reviews and they are all correct. You won’t regret staying here. The bed and pillows are comfy, and it’s location is great.

Perfect spot, perfect hosts!

Great vacation house! Clean and comfortable. Great location. Stephanie is available for quick answers on our questions and needs.

Host was gracious. Our room was clean, modern and will appointed. Great location in historic part of Sarasota.

Stephanie’s place was the perfect spot for a little weekend getaway! Everything listed was provided and she is quick to respond to questions. The place was very clean and cute! Would definitely recommend!

Great rental. We will be back and utilizing the same location and rental.

Stephanie's Carriage House is everything she says it is. Immaculately clean, comfortable and cozy and in the perfect location for exploring Sarasota by foot. Highly recommend it!

Cute place in convenient location. Clean space and comfortable bed. Very close to downtown Sarasota which had many dining options and little shops...and ice cream 😉 . We utilized the bikes, but didn't have time to use the kayaks on our quick 1 night stay.

Rented a house for a week on anna Marie Island. It was a wonderful experience! The king bed is super comfy!

We loved staying here. Everything was so clean and so well stocked. We especially loved the pool, fishing on the dock and the bicycles. Stephanie is an excellent host and extremely responsive. We had the best vacation!

The photos do not do justice to this beautiful carriage house apartment! It is state-of-the-art comfort, cozy and roomy, with an amazing massage chair. Stephanie is a wonderful host, and the place is stocked with everything you would need. I wish I had been able to stay longer than a weekend. It is walking distance to the most awesome, fun area of downtown Sarasota, yet secluded and quiet. Perfect for a couple who want a fun, romantic get-away, or for someone with business in the area. I will definitely visit again!

Lovely home, clean, and close to the beach!! 1/2 mile from downtown area and restaurants but easy walk!! Close to shops too!!
Very comfortable stay with everything you’ll need even beach chairs and beach toys!! Stephanie is a great host, very reliable and quick on replying to answer your questions!! It was a great trip!!

Amazing location on an amazing part of the beach.
Charming space. Outstanding host. Don’t hesitate. We just got back from 8 days and loved every minute of it.

Stephanie is a great host. Everything was in perfect order when we arrived. The place was spotless and beautifully decorated. This place has everything you need and I felt right at home. The house sits on a quiet little street and it's only a short walk to the beach. I will definitely be back for another visit.

Aquamarine dream is the perfect place for a relaxing stay in Longboat key. The home has everything our family and friends needed to enjoy one month of fun in the sun. From the beach chairs, cart, towels and kayak to local tips and games, there was never a dull moment. Perfect location close to everything especially the beach. Clean and comfortable beds and well equipped kitchen. Don’t hesitate to book this place. 5 stars!

We loved staying at Stephanie’s place! The location could not be better - it is steps from the best beach on the island. Her place was cozy and very clean and and she was great at answering my questions before we arrived. We had a magical and memorable week!

Perfect Vacation This vacation house was perfect. So close to the beach I could see the ocean from the front window. Would love to make this an annual vacation!

Great space! Special touches throughout and even beverages and snacks waiting for me when I arrived! Perfect location for exploring downtown! Very clean!

Great location. Nice, clean and everything you will need. Host provides tips and great communication.

Everything was perfect, exactly what we were looking for! Can't wait to go back!

Immacuately clean, pleasant surroundings, great location and plenty of "little extras" make this a true value in the heart of Sarasota's cultural life.

Great location, very clean and very nice host. Massage chair was also cool.

Wonderful experience! Anna Maria is our favorite vacation spot! The experience was great! Stephanie left is a welcome goodie bag so sweet of her. Rooms, kitchen, bathrooms were clean, there was extra toilet paper, towels and all the essentials in the kitchen. Stephanie was great she answered her e-mails in a timely fashion very helpful! We will definitely be coming back.

Stephanie's carriage house studio is a perfect location for walking to many places in Sarasota, yet not directly downtown, but in an historic neighborhood. All the amenities one could wish for! Highly recommended!

A lovely space with numerous amenities. Great dining near by and Stephanie and Mike were easy to interface with. 5 stars all the way!

The carriage house was better then expected. Stephanie could not have been a better host. Would definitely come back here to stay when we are in town. Thank you

This is a wonderful place to stay. Stephanie is a perfect host: very responsive and very kind. She went out of her way to make our stay memorable. The house is extremely comfortable and in a convenient, peaceful location. The access path to the secluded, beautiful beach is just around the corner: a six-minute walk. We loved it!

The view was amazing! Cozy, clean and totally beach comfortable. Complete with all amenities. Open floorplan with updated kitchen and living area. Balcony a plus!
Hosts were also awesome.
Beach week at Stephanie's place was great!

Stephanie was a wonderful host and the place is so comfortable. I slept like a baby. The beach is beautiful. I’m so grateful for the stay.

I’ve stayed at the seaside cottage in Anna Maria three times (in both the three bedroom lower unit and two bedroom upper unit) and absolutely love it there! The owners go above and beyond in making you feel welcome and at home. The location is perfect & private and the walk to the beach is a very short one. The units are cozy & warm, and the Bean Point area of island is quiet and tranquil. I highly recommend staying in either unit and I’ll be going back!

Great location and a really nice space.

Stephanie is an awesome host, very approachable, and ensures her guests are comfortable at all times. The apartment was very clean and nice, and the description and pictures are just as it appears. The unit is conveniently located in the middle of the town within walking distance, and the beaches and beach hangout spots are literally 10 minutes away. I had no complaints. Overall great experience. My family and I loved it.

Wonderful little place This place is perfect for a couple, so many places to walk to and enjoy, eat, drink,shop ect, don't hesitate to rent this place, I personally will be back

Love, love the location. Many nice restaurants and shops within walking distance. Extremely comfortable king size bed kept us rested and ready for the day! Stephanie was always nearby or a text away if we had a question. So much cozier than a hotel! We have already booked for next year!

Our stay was amazing!! We truly enjoyed all the amenities they had to offer us. From assisting us with the grill and kayaks to allowing us to use the beach supplies. The variety of appliances made it super easy to cook and making the decision to book an Airbnb vs a hotel that much easier. They truly made our stay feel like a vacation with some adventure that we were craving as a break from our jobs! Would book with them again!

This was our tenth year staying at Seaside Sanctuary! We love this Beach house and the location just steps away from the beach, and we always have a wonderful stay. Stephanie and Mike are always available to make sure we are comfortable, and we’ve enjoyed getting to know them and their family. Going to the seaside Sanctuary is our number one stop for our year.

Seaside Sanctuary - Anna Maria IslandIn January my husband and I spent two and a half weeks on Anna Maria Island at Stephanie‘s Seaside Sanctuary home. It was a delight. Both of our daughters joined us for a week for a late holiday get together. It was perfect for this purpose. The house was very clean and had the warmth of a home. That was especially nice for our family holiday. The kitchen was thoughtfully equipped and ready for anything, even a holiday meal put together by too many cooks. Board games were even provided.We give the house a “roominess factor” of 10. There was plenty of room for all of us even though we needed to have separate spaces for working remotely. The Wi-Fi could handle three Zoom calls simultaneously without any band width problem!And of course, there is the beach. Such a beautiful place. We were lucky to witness both calm days and an angry storm leaving huge waves. A bit of heaven in January.We will definitely be back to visit this fine home and its stellar hostess.

Stephanie was very friendly and attentive. The room (more like a studio apt) was immaculate which is very important to me. More than location. Very quiet and safe neighborhood. I'll be back!

Great location, clean, and well-maintained.

Stephanie and her husband were both very accommodating. If we needed anything or wished some information about the area, they did their best in a timely fashion to get what we requested.

The Carriage House was exactly as advertised: clean, comfortable, and well-supplied.

We will definitely recommend this place to family and friends wishing to visit Sarasota.

Beyond Our Expectations! The perfect place for 5 week family vacation! This property is ideally located in the north end of Longboat Key on a canal that’s great for fishing at your back door! The house is very clean, the beds and furniture very comfortable, and the kitchen well stocked. All the conveniences of home at the beach. The walk to the beach is easy and short, and the beach is beautiful and uncrowded. Beach chairs, beach cart, beach towels, umbrellas, and sand toys were much appreciated. We would not hesitate to book this home again, in fact we are already planning our next stay in this home.

Great accommodations, great host, and great location. Can't wait to go back.

Conveniently located for all of our vacation adventures. The Carriage House was clean with all the amenities we needed. It was nice to have the binder with very useful travel information. Stephanie was very friendly and welcoming! Would highly recommend this place!

Stephanie was a terrific host, very responsive! The house was spotless, well equipped with anything you might need, and in the most perfect location....just steps to the beach and in a quiet neighborhood, but very close to restaurants and shops. We enjoyed relaxing on the front porch and taking in the sunsets on the beach. I would highly recommend this place to anyone coming to visit AMI!

I loved my days in Anna Maria Island. The house is super clean and very comfortable, the location is perfect, you only need a few steps to the beautiful beach. I am counting the days for the next visit.

My husband and I needed a quick getaway. We were so impressed with this place! Perfect for a couple just looking for a peaceful escape. Great location and the neighborhood is full of new construction and awesome looking homes. We were impressed with how clean everything was and we felt very safe there. Thank you!

The place was immaculate, close to everything, and just as described. Stephanie is an amazing host. She made us feel right at home. The snacks and cold beverages on arrival were much appreciated! We will stay again!

Honestly was a great place to stay at Stephanie got everything set up for us when we asked about the kayaks. Also gave us any information we needed about where to go, it’s honestly a great place to stay and my boyfriend and I will definitely be back again.

Clean, meticulously maintained, great place to “work away” from home or just enjoy the gorgeous backyard and proximity to the beach. The home is comfortable and cheerful from the decor down to the dishes. Beautiful, quiet neighborhood less than a mile (easy walk) from restaurants and Siesta Key. Great communication. Thoughtful touches like ergonomic office chair tucked away in the closet and fully stocked kitchen -things most owners never consider and renters may not even know they’ll be grateful for. We loved our month here and would rent from Stephanie again in a second. A+ all around.

Great Beach location in a nice area of town. Well equipped with good space. We would stay here again for sure.

Great place in a quiet area of town. Space is a perfect area to relax and have everything you need for a getaway. Close to the downtime area to explore and enjoy.

Incredible location just minutes from everything!! Amazing restaurants located a quick drive away and the beach is very close by!
Apartment was absolutely immaculate and everything has been thought of! Highly recommend.

Had a very good stay. Great location close to downtown Sarasota. Stephanie is great and very helpful.

Wonderful week stay at Stephanie's! Everything was ready and prepared for us- all needed items that we planned to buy when we got there were already provided (beach bag with towels, chairs, beach umbrella -just to name a few)! We went to beaches daily so those were greatly needed! She was always quick to respond with any help or question we had. Beautiful, historic town to walk around. Loved our stay- will be back for sure!

Very cute, close to everything, and clean! Perfect space for 2 people to stay and enjoy their time in Sarasota. Stephanie was attentive and so kind if you needed anything.

Clean space and close proximity to restaurants and the beach. Worth it

When I travel, I want a comfortable bed, peace and quiet, and a place that is cool and sparkling clean. Stephanie's place is all that and so much more. We had everything we needed right at our fingertips. My husband loved the massage chair and riding around town on one of the available bikes. We took the double kayak out and had a blast. The location is fantastic, too. Thank you, Stephanie, for top-notch hospitality! Book this place. You won't regret it.

Excellent spot! We LOVED staying here. We will be back!

This home is beautiful!! The location the beach is so nice and has easy access with small children. It was nice to be able to walk to a few restaurants as well. The beach here is beautiful, we had a wonderful time!

Inside and out the carriage house is perfectly maintained. Stephanie responds instantly to any questions you may have. Downtown Sarasota is a very short walk away. Perfect location for exploring the downtown. I will look to stay here again in future visits.

We had a great time a this vacation property . It is well equiped very clean and the location. Could not be better. The beach is magnificent.
We strongly recomend this vacation property and its host Stephanie.

My family had a great time here! Location is perfect and so close to the beach. We will definitely be back.

This place is AMAZING! It is literally 100 feet from the beach. We were pleasantly surprised to see how close to the beach we were. Basic accommodations, everything we needed and very clean and the beds are comfortable. Stephanie was awesome and very accommodating and just lovely. We will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful 6week stay at Aquamarine Dream on Longboat Key. Fischer Vacation Rentals and Stephanie are truly the best property managers we have encountered. She responds quickly, ensures we have all we need and more. We are returning in late this year and cannot wait. Thank you!

The Carriage House met all of my needs — it was clean, comfortable and lovely — it is extremely well located for exploring Sarasota — Stephanie was very friendly and helpful — I hope to stay at the Carriage House during future visits to Sarasota

Had a good time staying at Stephanie's. The place looks just like in the pictures. It is close to the the key downtown restaurants (about 5-10 mins walk). Stephanie was very responsive leading up to and through our stay.

Stephanie snd her Sarasota carriage house were the BEST! Location....location!!!! Close to beautiful waterways, a short drive near many beaches and the availability of a safe walking downtown with a great variety of restaurants. Highly recommend this spotless and comfy Airbnb.

We had an amazing stay! House had everything we needed.

Beautiful clean unit walking distance from the water. Great communication and detailed guide of places and restaurants near the area. Would definitely come back to stay here. Thank you Stephanie!

This place is awesome. If you are staying in SRQ and want the downtown experience, you can't stay anywhere this cool or nice for the price. If you wanted, you could walk to everything within 10 minutes! They respond super fast and are very accommodating!

Wonderful kitchen amenities!

Christmas beach vacation Perfect location for a beach vacation.

Stephanie's carriage house a great find, located in the historic district of Sarasota. We only stayed one night but it was the perfect location for what we were in town to accomplish. Stephanie was helpful with suggestions for dinner that evening. "Owen's Fish Camp" is a awesome local experience! Additionally our canine companion was welcome and we are very appreciative.
Thank you for you hospitality!

Everything about this place is great!!! The host, the location, the apartment itself. It is located in a quiet residential neighborhood but within easy walking distance to restaurants and shops. Stephanie was an extremely responsive host - always getting right back in touch with me if I had any questions. The apartment itself was very comfortable. There's even a welcome basket of snacks and a couple of bottled waters in the fridge which is so nice to have when you have been traveling. There are two bikes provided which we used on the MURT Trail. Easy access and easy riding along the bay - all the way over to St. Armand Key. It was beautiful. I also ran the trail and it was awesome!!! We rented a car just because we were interested in checking out all the nearby keys. There is a lot to see and do. The apartment is really very centrally located for accessing all the keys, no destination we went to was over 30 minutes and the views when riding through the keys were amazing! We also rented a boat for a day at the nearby Marina Jack. Even though we don't have a whole lot of boating experience, it was easy to navigate the waterways and we spent a great day out on the water. The apartment is a great value - definitely the most for your money, in what can be a very "pricey" area. I would recommend staying here if you are in the area. I only wish we would have had time to take the kayak out. The launch was only a block away and it looked like it would be a lot of fun. May be next time!

The apartment was just as great as it looked online. Super clean, REALLY great kitchen, and light and airy from the lovely big window. The neighborhood is very cool, be sure and walk around and check out all the interesting homes. Walking distance to tons of restaurants, coffee shops and cultural venues. We'll definitely go back again.

We have stayed at Fischer Vacation Rentals each year for 12 years. The property is very well kept, the owners are super responsive and the cost is very reasonable. I have referred many family and friends to this business without hesitation.

What a wonderful stay! From the cute homey feel of the house, which was so well appointed, to the location, we found a true gem of a place in Anna Maria!

Space was extremely clean and up to date! Convenient location and very easy to navigate the area. Host was hospitable, respectful, and attentive! Thank you again!

Exceptional place to stay! Stephanie was a great host, and her place is absolutely beautiful and comfy. She provided wonderful recommendations for places to eat and go downtown. The location is perfect ... we were able to walk everywhere.

This place was clean, had everything that we would need and close to all points of interest. Also located in a nice neighborhood. We would definitely rent again if vacationing for two.

Stephanie was a great host! House was spotless and perfect! The extras for the ocean were great, and house has everything you need. Sitting on the front porch in the morning and evening was so peaceful and quiet! Would recommend to anyone, we will surely be back!

A clean, comfortable home in a great location! Stephanie is a wonderful host and the house was stocked with everything we needed to feel at-home! We’ll definitely be back!

Nice space in a quiet location within walking distance to many attractions. We recommend taking the kayak out to the mouth of the bay which is about a 25-30 minute trip out and skirts Selby Botanical Gardens. Although we did not have an opportunity to use the bicycles, it was nice that they were available, as were a couple of beach chairs. The space has a large wall mounted TV WITH local channels which is something not always available in some AirBnB spaces. This was appreciated especially when we had a couple of rain showers/downpours that held us up temporarily. Stephanie was a very friendly and responsive host.

We have been using Fischer's for about 10 years for our summer vacation beach house and are never disappointed with our choice. The house is always very clean, spacious, and has everything we need and is very close to the beach. Stephanie and Mike are very friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend staying in one of their rentals.

Our plans to check in suddenly changed and Stephanie was able to accommodate our revised schedule. Upon our arrival, my husband and I noticed how organized Stephanie is and how she’s thought of every detail to make one’s stay so relaxing. The carriage house is conveniently located and very welcoming. From the well equipped kitchen to the massage chair, the carriage house has it all. Stephanie highly recommended we go kayaking and everything was ready for us. Our future visits to Sarasota will include Stephanie’s carriage house from now on!

We live just outside of Sarasota, but this place was such a nice get-a-way. There is such a nice art area in SRQ and fun restaurants to walk to from Stephanie's place which made this a treat. Thank you so much!!! Also, the massage chair is the best!!

I'm happy to share that we had a wonderful time at the Carriage House. While it's not on the water, it's only a short drive to Lido beach/St Armand's Circle and Siesta Key beaches (which is where we spent the majority of our time), and a short walk to Downtown Sarasota.
After a day on the beach, it was nice to come back, refresh, and walk or bike downtown for dinner. There are many restaurants to choose from, we liked the gf pizza at The Fountain, it's a small space with outdoor dining, very chill place to have a few apps n cocktails, another evening, we enjoyed drinks n dancing to a live band at Mattison's City Grille.
Stephanie's a warm and welcoming host, it was a pleasure to chat with she and her husband, lovely couple, which reflects in their hospitality.

Amenities we appreciated:
*BIKES, nice ones. We crisscrossed all over downtown and the smaller neighborhoods adjacent to the Carriage House.
*Kayaks, while we didn't get to use them, as the tide wasn't quite right, two kayaks are available to use.
*Comfortable King size bed. Best sleep we've had on vacation.
*Beach chairs, jumbo size beach towels, and umbrella.
*Sunscreen and aloe, both of which we used-thank you.

The area is SO quiet and tucked away; yet close to everything.

Stephanie has thought of everything to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Next time were in SW Florida we'll no doubt return to the Carriage House.

Kindest regards, Cindy and Eric Cummings Portland, Maine

Stephanie's place was immaculate. the location to the beach and the Northern part of Anna Maria island was perfect. She had towels, beach chairs and umbrellas, even a shower to wash off the sand outside before entering the house. So quite and relaxing. We can't wait to return. Thank you for everything!

we enjoyed this beachside house!

The house was wonderful, and very clean and comfortable. Everything we needed for the beach and the pool was provided, and Stephanie was a wonderful host. I think the only thing I would change is how firm the beds are. They're really firm, but we were able to sleep ok anyway. Other than that it seems like everything has been thought of, and I would stay here again.

Stephanie is beyond a super host, accommodating is an understatement, as for the cottage and the experience in a word “perfect” no stone unturned no detail left out, every amenity and more, grateful to have been a guest I will definitely be back! 🙏🏻 Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home

We had a very nice stay at Stephanie's Carriage House. The unit is exactly as advertised and very comfortable. It is walkable to the nice Sarasota downtown and the bayfront. It is located on the edge of an old residential neighborhood and there is a lot of interesting new housing being built on her street and nearby. The unit is quiet and immaculate. Stephanie was very easy to communicate with (altho' we did not meet her in person) and check-in/out were a breeze.

Stephanie and her family were amazing! Their cottage was beautiful and they they go above and beyond for a perfect stay. We would def come back!

There is everything in the house you would need for a beach vacation! The beach is conveniently located a short walk from the property and is beautiful and uncrowded. Stephanie is easy to contact and responsive. We really enjoyed our stay!

Super clean, well equipped and just a few steps to gorgeous sunsets.

Great host and property!

What a wonderful cottage! We totally enjoyed our time and would love to come back again for another visit. Thanks so much for making us feel so welcome! Best to you and your family! 🙂

Spent the week here with the family and loved every minute of it! The place is literally steps to the beach on the quieter part of the island, which was exactly what we needed. Bean point is amazing for sunsets! The free trolley stop was a quick walk away, which our teenagers loved. All the beach gear you need is right there for you and plenty of other amenities as well. Great find! Hope to be back soon!!

Amazing place to stay. Highly recommend if you are trying to be close to the beach and downtown Sarasota. Everything is walking distance.

Great location near everything downtown. We drove sometimes.....and sometimes we just walked. Comfortable room. Immaculately clean. Super quiet. Short drive to beaches. Massage chair is amazing. ....we want one.

It's difficult to top perfect, and Stephanie's place was more than perfect! Clean, great appliances, central location, quiet, safe, and good communication.
I can't wait for my next visit!

Extremely clean and convenient!

My family had has a great time at Stephanie place. The place very clean, large enough for 4-6 adults. Definitely will be back.

I stayed at the Carriage House, 1703 Devonshire, Oct 7-12. The entire experience was great. The Carriage house is a private secluded studio over a detached garage. Made for easy access and great privacy. Unit was very comfortable, clean, and had all necessities I needed. Note that this is for a single or a couple. Not large enough for more than 2, but perfect for 1 or 2. Stephanie was a great host. Very attentive, outlined all info clearly, and provided help when needed to get the kayak ready for fun on the water. Location was great. I walked to Main Street each night, biked to Lido in no time, and used their kayak to paddle out to the bay (and follow around a manatee). I highly recommend this place and will certainly use it again! Safe travels.

We loved coming back to stay here! Clean, so much to do within walking distance, as well as extremely accommodating!

Great quiet neighborhood close to downtown of Sarasota. Tasteful room with many extras, even massage chair! We rode bikes to Bayfront park to watch a sunset, eat fish tacos and listen music. Walking distance to downtown Sarasota and Marie Shelby Botanical Garden. The hosts were very hospitable. Thank you!

Beach getaway Great location. Can see and hear the ocean from the deck. Lovely view of sunsets from deck as well. Beds were comfy.

Stephanie and her husband offer such a beautiful place to stay in a great location to just about everything in Sarasota. Everything was just as they described in their listing. We walked or rode (their bikes) everywhere including to St. Armand's and Lido Key! We weren't in a car our whole stay. Because of their location it's so easy to get around and not drive. Anything that you might need for a wonderful stay in Sarasota is easily accessed from their place like groceries, incredible restaurants, live music, coffee shops, museums, walking trails etc. They were incredibly accommodating hosts and very quick to respond to our questions and offered great suggestions on things to do or restaurants to visit. Some of our favorite activities: Marie Selby Botanical Gardens (a must see), MURT trail to St. Armand's and Lido Key, Payne Park. Some of our favorite restaurants were Owen's Fish Camp (although because of the wait of 2 hours we ate off their limited menu out back which was not our favorite meal in Sarasota but the scene in the back is priceless), Selva, Libby's, Amore. For coffee shops we really enjoyed Kahwa and Pastry Art. It seemed like there were endless great food and drink choices. Stephanie's place is definitely someplace we will come back to!

We stayed at the Carriage House only 4 nights. Hopefully next time it will be longer! The place was so cozy, very clean, and neatly decorated. Perfect space for two, and very private. I especially enjoyed my morning cup of coffee out on the deck. Thank you, Stephanie and Mike!

It was great!

Goes beyond expectation Our family had a wonderful stay. We love the water, and the access to the bay and beach as well as the pool is fabulous. House was clean and equipped with everything you could need. Stephanie goes above and beyond, making sure there are pool flotation toys for adults and kids as well as extra everything in the house. She was easy to get a hold of for any questions. We will definitely return!

I highly recommend, Stephanie… She’s a great host.

And the place is wonderful.

Very comfortable and amazing location!

Great place in a great location. Very convenient to everything in Sarasota, and a really nice, thoughtfully decorated space. We really enjoyed our stay and would come back without thinking twice.

This place is great: great host, great amenities, great location.

We loved this place! Beautiful views and vegetation, comfortable beds, close to the beach. It was perfect for our family vacation.

Perfect location! We absolutely loved this cottage and it’s proximity to the beach. Its only a half mile walk to many restaurants and shops. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen is well-equipped. The communication with the owner was exceptional. She went above and beyond by welcoming not only us, but our dog as well.
We were impressed and would love to return!
Notes about the island:
It’s busy! Expect wait times wherever you go for food.
If you want to rent a golf cart, schedule it in plenty of time before you come down.
Not all streets have sidewalks and there isn’t much grass (important when your dog needs to do his business)
Sunsets are spectacular!
Have a cocktail at The Doctors Office and a burger at Skinny’s

Beautiful beach vacation home. Clean, comfortable home, The host was great with all communication. Not many more than 50 steps to the beach that rivals Siesta Key. We cannot wait for the opportunity for a return visit. We have rented many Airbnb properties. This had to be one of the best.

This house and the amenities was better then expected. The house was very clean and comfortable Clean Spacious comfortable!

Great weekend Lovely clean home. Wonderful location with lots of peace and quiet.

Great location - we did a lot of walking and biking. Stephanie was a very responsive and helpful host. We would stay there again.

Excellent location and great host!

Excellent accommodations with everything you could need. Location is wonderful

This house was perfect for our 3 night stay. It is so close to the beach path you can practically see the water from the house. You feel like you are directly on the beach! The neighborhood is quiet and people are friendly. The house is really clean and well stocked with cooking supplies, towels, extra blankets, pillows, and tons of beach stuff. It’s a short walk to a Main Street with lots of restaurants and shops too. I love that it’s a duplex too. We may rent the entire house down the road for a larger family reunion vaca. Great stay!

Great location and cozy vacation home The owner is fantastic for any communication that you need and the beach is only a short walk (15 seconds?) away. House comes with pretty much everything. This was our second stay at this vacation house and hope to comeback again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Carriage House. The snacks and chocolate on our pillows were a welcoming touch. The Guest Book was most helpful to find excellent restaurants and local activities. One of the best things about the Carriage House is how close everything is to this location. Stephanie and Mike are very friendly and great hosts. Thank you for making our stay in Sarasota a memorable one.

This is an exceptionally clean, comfortable, well appointed apartment, with many important touches, and a great host who really goes out of her way to ensure that everything goes smoothly. From this location you can easily walk to the downtown area for breakfast, dinner, or entertainment, or safely walk home from that area at night. Bus transportation to Siesta Key, Lido Key, Longboat Key, St. Armands Circle, or even Venice is easy and inexpensive.

This was our third year staying at the Seaside Sanctuary. The location is fantastic and the accommodations are perfect. Stephanie is a great hostess, we really could not ask for more. Hoping to return again next year.

Anna Maria island is a lovely quiet beach and Stephanie’s place is just perfect. It is like a traditional beach house with lovely amenities. The place was crystal clean. Everything was well
Set up for us.
There was even a little
Welcome gift. We had a magnificent time and would love to go
back soon!

This is our second time at this beautiful property and we are booking our 3rd trip. We stayed in the Seaside Sanctuary in Anna Maria Island for 7 nights in the quiet, clean, cute, comfortable and fabulous downstairs unit. Literally steps from the pristine Gulf of Mexico, we enjoyed sunbathing , swimming, fishing and sunsets. Absolute paradise!

Outstanding!!!! That is the word I will use to summarize our stay. The room had everything we needed and more. It truly felt like a home away from home. Stephanie and mike were very nice and just great hosts. Thank you again for the hospitality. This place is a must stay if you are in the Sarasota area.

this has what we call the 3 C's ... clean,comfortable and cozy.. if your looking for a close to town (with-in walking) distance with nice restaurants just a couple of minutes from your doorstep this is an excellent place. Stephanie and Mike are great host and very friendly ...

Stephanie's home truly exceeded my expectations! The space was beautiful, clean and in the absolute best location in Sarasota. The extra added touch was the massage chair. So relaxing after a day of walking! Stephanie provided everything I could need and then some. Communication was excellent and I will recommend The Carriage House to anyone I know who is looking for an airbnb in Sarasota!!

Stephanie’s home was beyond what I expected. I literally had tears leaving because the location was perfect and convenient, it was clean and roomy, it was inviting and had everything we needed. I will be returning in the future and will also recommend this rental to my friends and family!

This condo is AWESOME! Just footsteps to the beautiful beach. The condo itself was spotless! The location of this condo is located in the best part of the Island with so many shops, all kinds of restaurants, pizza, seafood and even a donut shop! Stephanie is such an incredible person to work with, she really cares about making your vacation a great one. My husband and I will be returning to this place for sure!

Great location and space and great hosts, would definitely book again.

Very knowledgeable of the area. Place was very clean and check in was extremely easy. Great hospitality.

My family had a wonderful time in our week long holiday stay. The value for the location is awesome. The kitchen was well stocked and allowed us to do lots of cooking during our stay. Stephanie was super responsive and helpful. Would absolutely recommend!

We loved staying at the Carriage House! The location is excellent (close to downtown but just far enough away that it’s quiet). Stephanie provided many extra amenities (kayaking was so fun!) and was very responsive & helpful! Would definitely recommend.

Outstanding accommodations, really convenient, great amenities.

Seaside Sanctuary - Anna Maria Island In January my husband and I spent two and a half weeks on Anna Maria Island at Stephanie‘s Seaside Sanctuary home. It was a delight. Both of our daughters joined us for a week for a late holiday get together. It was perfect for this purpose. The house was very clean and had the warmth of a home. That was especially nice for our family holiday. The kitchen was thoughtfully equipped and ready for anything, even a holiday meal put together by too many cooks. Board games were even provided. We give the house a “roominess factor” of 10. There was plenty of room for all of us even though we needed to have separate spaces for working remotely. The Wi-Fi could handle three Zoom calls simultaneously without any band width problem! And of course, there is the beach. Such a beautiful place. We were lucky to witness both calm days and an angry storm leaving huge waves. A bit of heaven in January. We will definitely be back to visit this fine home and its stellar hostess.

My husband and I took a spontaneous trip to Sarasota and were able to book Stephanie's place at the last minute. It was wonderful! Everything we could have needed, private parking, centrally located. Also, we really underestimated the massage chair, it was excellent and a great bonus! Stephanie was very easy to communicate with and took care of everything. Everything we needed for the beach, including towels and beach bag was very nice. Would certainly stay here again.

Our stay at Seaside Sanctuary was wonderful! We have been staying there for many years and continue to come back because we love this “home away from home”. The house is so clean, comfortable and welcoming! Stephanie adds those extra touches that really stand out. Having the small necessities available like garbage bags, detergent, sponges and other essentials is very much appreciated. Stephanie is quick to respond and helpful with suggestions. This house is only a few steps from the beach, making this vacation house perfect! We look forward to staying here again!

Stephanie is a great communicator during the entire process and is definitely a place I would recommend for a couple or one person. The neighborhood area is great and Stephanie made the upstairs comfortable and very clean !

We stayed at a bunch of different AirBnBs during a week of exploring Tampa/St Pete/Sarasota. Stephanie’s place was our favorite by far. She was a proactive host reaching out to us before our trip to see if we had any special needs. We got to meet her in person upon arrival which was a nice touch. The apartment was exactly as presented online. In addition it had the quietest A/C of any of the places we stayed. It wasn’t one that keeps cycling on/off just as your falling asleep - for which we were grateful. Also it was very clean and fresh. No air fresheners or others perfumes masking a musty smell. Cold water in fridge was welcome as we arrived on a super-hot afternoon. The fold out couch was comfortable, not a bar-in-the-back situation. We didn’t take advantage of the outdoor patio or bicycles but they were inviting. The massage chair was a fun extra as well.

We (2 women)walked to the downtown area for afternoon cocktails and dinner. It felt completely safe and it was nice to ditch the car for an evening.

I would whole-heartedly recommend this place and would stay here again in the future.

Great place to stay for the location, the comfort and the host. A very inviting atmosphere with a comfortable bed and awesome massage chair for those easy walks into downtown.

Fantastic accomodations in a very unique Sarasota neighborhood. Host family was welcoming, helpful and responsive. Would absolutely stay again!

This place was everything you would hope for in an Airbnb! It was roomy, clean, nicely decorated and full of nice little touches that made this a very positive experience. We made good use of the bicycles (complete with burger bells) as well as her beach chairs and umbrella. It is easy to see that Stephanie takes pride in what she does. She was professional, responsive, and accommodating throughout our stay. There is no reason to hesitate when contemplating a stay at this property!

Great location! This house is in a great location and has everything you need. Stephanie is very attentive and accessible for any questions or needs.

This place was by far the best place we have ever stayed. Perfect location, well appointed apartment, quiet and private. We had kayaks to use, beach bikes and beach chairs and umbrella. Stephanie kept in communication with us and welcomed questions and communication. This place is in great location , we could walk to most restaurants and bars and was a close drive to local beaches. It was very private and quiet. I highly recommend this place and we will definitly be back. Thank you again Stephanie for your hospitality and suggestions!

Wonderful! Clean, safe, well-maintained property. Great communication with owner. Steps from the sugar sand beach. Highly recommend!

Great place to stay, within walking distance to a bunch of places. Very clean and Stephanie was super helpful with letting us check in early!

Stephanie is so attentive, and the carriage house is so comfortable! The place was clean, cozy, and well lit, with just the right amount of room. The a/c was on and the space was cool and comfortable when I arrived. Would love to stay here again!

Stephanie goes the extra mile. Her simple, yet thoughtful touches such as snacks and water bottles in the fridge, extra soft linens, quality shampoos and toilet paper show that she cares. Super friendly people and an exceptionally clean place on a quiet street.

Great place clean, well appointed. Coffee and creamer. Only issue is no live tv but not a big deal. Great host. We will be back

The location is perfect! Walking distance to great food and shops in Sarasota and a 10 minute drive to siesta key. Amenities are great- kitchen and bathroom. Will definitely stay again next time in Sarasota.

Great place, close to the downtown to walk to and would come back!

This place is exactly as described, and Stephanie really went the extra mile in getting things ready for us on short notice. Never ceases to amaze me how kind and welcoming people can be. One of the best nights sleep my lady and I have had and we fell in love with the artistic, adventurous, quality, yet down to earth people of Sarasota.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Stephanie's place. This was our first Airbnb experience and we were not disappointed. Everything was as described; spotless and very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again!

Third (Website hidden by Airbnb) always a great experience.

Very comfortable studio apartment set up well with some extras...easy walk to downtown Sarasota and bayfront. Very clean and in a quiet, private location.

What a Gem. This home has it All the amenities. Whatever you like to do, this home/location has it All. Great pool for those warm days. On a canal where you can fish, boat and kayak right from the house.We saw Manatees, Dolphins and All kinds of wildlife while kayaking from the house.The Pristine Beach is just a few minutes walk.If your looking for a place to get away, relax and have an amazing fun filled vacation, I Highly recommend this home.

This is a wonderful spot. Perfectly located and well appointed. The hosts couldn’t be more accommodating. It enhanced our visit.

We had a wonderful stay in Stephanie's carriage house. It was super clean, has a great kitchenette and is walkble to all the shops and restaurants downtown. The bikes and kayak were awesome bonus and we were able to make good use of both. Do not hesitate to rent this place if it's available.

Great little studio carriage house in walking distance to everything you want to see and do in downtown Sarasota! Would book again for sure!

Great place and great value!
Clean and comfortable with wonderful hosts, even Stephanie’s sons were friendly and helpful. You will not be disappointed.

The host and space are one in a million! Don’t wait! Book today!

If you’re staying in Sarasota, you can’t do better than Stephanie’s carriage house. It’s got everything you’ll need, close to downtown, and super clean! Stephanie is a thoughtful host and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!

Terrific all around. Pleasant, helpful, and responsive owner. The De Narvaez property is a clean, comfortable home with plenty of space and all necessary amenities. Quiet street with friendly neighbors. We plan to come back!

Stephanie was an amazing host. She recommended some great local places for us to check out during our stay. Great location- so close to amazing restaurants and a quick Uber to St Armand’s circle. She provided bikes for us to ride and beach chairs/umbrellas for us to use at Siesta Key. Perfect place, we loved it!

Stephanie is honestly my absolute favorite host on Airbnb that I’ve ever had. She has the best costumer service values and will work with you to make sure that you have the best stay possible. If you have any issue at all whatsoever, make sure to communicate with her; she WILL fix it or WILL make up for it or will work with you. She’s seriously amazing.

The unit is immaculate; I’m amazed as a native Floridian how clean and sand-free they get it.

I stayed here last year and honestly will continue to book with Stephanie as long as she has this home.

Perfect getaway for the whole family, dog included. The location can’t be beat — steps from the beach. Great kitchen, living room and comfy beds. Stephanie was a wonderful host, very quick on communication. Can’t wait to return!

Great hospitality! Stephanie was so responsive and was always available for any questions we had! You seriously only need to pack your clothes for the trip because everything else you could possibly need is already there! We will be back!

Great a/c. Comfortable for two couples. Good location. A bit noisy in AM with construction next door

You can't beat the location of this house! It's so close to the beach and also walking distance to restaurants. We loved sitting on the balcony and having our coffee each morning. The house had everything we needed, and we especially enjoyed having so many beach items we could use. Stephanie was an excellent host!

This place was outstanding! Steps to the beach, saw manatees and dolphins, so cozy and so close to all the shops and restaurants. Highly recommend!

Book it, you won’t regret it. Perfect location; just a few feet to the beach. Well stocked; we only packed our toiletries. The house included the beach umbrella, chairs and even toys for the kids. The kitchen had everything we needed. Communication was great from check in to check out. We’re looking forward to staying here again.

The perfect studio apartment with a host who goes above and beyond.

Every single picture Stephanie has in regards to the property is spot on. It was cleaner than any hotel you'd stay at in the price range she offers with way more amenities. We stayed at the Carriage House for a week and it was absolutely perfect. There's an indie movie theater and great restaurants and shops within walking distance for nights we wanted to go out (Stephanie's suggestion of Owen's Fish Camp is a MUST - so good!). Nights we wanted to eat in we had all the appliances needed to cook which helped make our week long trip even more affordable.

She really thinks of every detail including leaving guidebooks about the area with things to do and see and even provides a beach bag with towels and beach chairs and roll-aways. This was perfect for us when we hit up Siesta Key.

One of my favorite amenities Stephanie provides is the massage chair. We took a day trip to Disney World and that chair was incredibly helpful after being on our feet all day.

Right now there is some construction going on in the area near the property which can make getting off the road a little tricky, but it's manageable and we didn't experience any excessive noise or anything like that. The neighborhood is actually quite peaceful. Stephanie really goes out of her way to make sure you feel welcome (she even left us a welcome note and cold water upon arrival) and lets you know that she's accessible if you ever need anything (but she has already thought of everything so it wasn't an issue). While she and her family were living right next door to us we never saw each other much so it really feels like you have your own place. For us this was the perfect Airbnb for our trip. We can't recommend it enough!

Great location for family vacation! This home was awesome! It is super clean, charming and welcoming. The neighborhood is quiet, friendly and only 2 blocks away from the best beach on Long boat Key. They don't miss a thing on amenities. Kitchen has everything you need, like being at home. Outside Grill & fireplace which we enjoyed as well as the pool. Bedrooms all have their own designated bathrooms, and are spotless. Stephanie is so accommodating, and is so responsive to any inquires. She is an excellent host who cares. Highly recommended.

Very thoughtful owners This house is great- super clean as other reviewers note. Beach is beautiful and quiet, not crowded. Pool is great. The house is stocked well- beach gear, kitchen gadgets, etc. Nice quiet neighborhood. What I found unique is the thoughtful details- this place has detergent, trash bags, plenty of TP, hand soap, etc- the kind of stuff you usually get one of at a rental and have to bring or buy the rest. Longboat Key is gorgeous. Easy to drop in a kayak from this dock and tour the bay. Highly recommend!

Sparkling clean and convenient to everything. Nice cozy place

Stephanie was so great. We arrived to a basket of snacks and a personal note. She was quick to respond to any questions we had and even returned my phone to me when I didn't realize I dropped it outside. The space was well decorated and clean. Would definitely stay again!

Stephanie is awesome!! Easy to work with, very responsive to any needs not that we had any except for restaurant advice!! The house was awesome exactly as described and Wes perfect for us!! We will be back again soon for another stay. I really can't say enough good things about our experience. It was perfect!!

Stepanie's place was perfect for our short weekend stay! The unit was fully stocked with everything we might need and more and the location was perfect for a quick walk downtown. We will be back!

Incredible location with an incredible host, just about everything you could possibly want or need was stocked including a trip idea book that shows how much the host truly cares

Good stay Enjoyed the experience

Awesome place to stay!

Great location, great place!

We had a great time in this space, with the extended family. Stephanie is a great host! We will definitely be returning.

Excellent host, excellent property! Stephanie was super responsive, flexible and easy to communicate with. House was well stocked and well kept. It is on a quiet street and just a short walk to an awesome part of the beach. Our group had no children so we enjoyed being a bit further away from public beach, restaurants, etc. For us, it was perfect. So perfect we have already booked our return trip! Thanks Stephanie!

Awesome place near downtown Sarasota. Perfect for one or a couple. Very clean garage apartment behind main residence with an amazing shower, modern amenities, and great landscaping around the outside. Walking/biking distance to any number of cool bars/restaurants as well as the Bayfront area. Stephanie kept in great contact in the day/hours leading up to my stay and was always available if I needed a response or info. I imagine I'll be back if she'll have me

Our stay was amazing! The property had everything we needed and more from the full kitchen, coolers, bikes, kayaks, and beach chairs, we didn't have to worry about packing a lot. The room was perfect, clean, and comfortable and what can I say, the massage chair was such a great extra. The location was awesome being downtown and 10-15 minutes from all of the beaches and hot spots. Our favorite was riding the bikes all over town. We used them every day. We felt very safe walking and riding at night downtown as well. So many great places to eat and explore being in the heart of town. If you love Italian food this is the place to be. Plenty of restaurants, coffee shops, and shopping. Stephanie was so helpful when we needed something and offered plenty of recommendations for things to do and offered helpful tips. I would highly recommend staying here and would not think twice about booking here again when back in the area.

Great location, great host, great vacation! Home was as promised, and host had everything and more that we needed. We have already been looking to book for a trip next year!

Amazing place to stay in Anna Maria island. For those who love beach houses and close proximity to beach , look no further . You can’t see ocean from the whole house but 10 steps away

Excellent place to stay if your looking for a fun weekend in Sarasota. Great location and the room was extremely clean. I highly recommend staying here.

Great location and very affordable. Stephanie communicates with you very well.

Stephanie has thought of every detail to make this the most enjoyable place we have ever stayed on AMI. Clean, well equipped, and perfect location. Excellent communication from Stephanie. We will be back!

Everything Stephanie said about her place came true! Highly recommend you will not be disappointed! January!

Exactly as described and in a great location.

The Carriage House was perfect for my husband and I’s weekend getaway! Check-in was super easy, everything was clean and in great condition, and the location was perfect! It was close to everything! We were very comfortable and will definitely be back for another stay!

This was a great place with an awesome view. Great location, steps to the beach, very peaceful. Amenities were very good. Duplex was updated and clean, clean! Perfect beach place.

Enjoyed another great stay at Stephanie's Carriage House. She makes the experience so easy! The condo is in a great location, we enjoyed walking to all our fav restaurants and hangouts.

Anna Maria Trip Great clean place, very close to the beach and very quiet. Great property I would stay there again, I highly recommend it.

We have spent the last week in Sarasota staying at Stephanie's airbnb
It is in a wonderful location, so close to great restaurants and downtown Sarasota.
Our accomodation was first class, very clean and wonderful amenities.
Our host Stephanie was very kind and helpful with anything we needed.
Thoroughly recommend this airbnb

Awesome place to stay. Owners are very accommodating and rapidly available to answer questions.

Stephanie has thought of everything! From a clean and tidy place to great restaurant suggestions even down to staples we never imagined we would need, but we did! And she had it covered!

We will definitely reserve her place again next time we are in Sarasota!

Visited Sarasota for weekend getaway. Amazing hosts and place. Such a charming studio apt and exactly as advertised! Location was ideal for walking to waterfront and Main St. We enjoyed a stunning beach day at Lido Key Beach and a light dinner at Venezia in St. Armand’s. We didn’t have time to use the bikes or kayaks this time around, but we’ll definitely come back again!

Perfect location for checking out beautiful downtown Sarasota!

Very close to several walkable spots to visit. Comfortable quarters.

This house has a perfect location. It’s in a largely residential area, so it’s quiet, but access to the beach is literally outside the door, and it’s only a short walk down the beach to an amazing bar and restaurant from which you can watch the amazing sunset. The host, Stephanie, has put a lot of time and attention to all the small details—pretty much everything you would want was there! And Stephanie provided just the right amount of communication to make sure our visit was the best possible. Definitely 5 stars!

Stephanie was a wonderful host and the property was everything we could have hoped for for our family. She was very helpful and responded quickly to all of our questions. We will recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for the perfect trip for their family/friends/couples. We cannot wait to go back!

This was one of the best AirBNBs I have ever stayed at! The property is immaculate and there are so many great amenities provided for your stay. The location is in a great part of town as well; It’s very close to the beaches, shopping, and fantastic restaurants. Stephanie was a phenomenal host and she put a lot of effort into providing the best stay possible for guests. I would definitely return if I’m ever in the area again!

Amazing clean perfect place to stay definitely would return

Stephanie is an outstanding host and her home is beautiful! Her communication was great from the beginning, she also checked in during our trip which I thought was very sweet.

We had an amazing week in AMI at Stephanie’s place. It was our first time to the island, and we absolutely loved the gorgeous beach that is steps away from the house. We spent most of our time at beach, but also rented a golf cart for the week so we could ride to restaurants and activities around the island. We didn’t use our car the whole week. The beach gear in storage unit was great to have on hand. The top floor unit was clean, cozy and a perfect space for our family of four (kids 11 and 13). All in all, a wonderful stay!

This was our first time staying at an Airbnb and we couldn’t have asked for better hospitality. The room looked exactly like the photos, everything was so clean, and Stephanie and her husband were extremely helpful and friendly. We highly recommend this location! Thanks for everything.

Perfect location! Wonderful experience, wonderful place!

Sparklingly clean with every amenity provided, nestled in a wonderful location. 10 minute drive from great dining and cultural attractions, and white sand beaches (Siesta and Lido Keys). Ample space with modern decor. Responsive host if you have questions!

Fantastic stay We really enjoyed staying here, it’s in a fantastic location and the place is updated, comfortable and immaculate. Stephanie was a pleasure to work with and very hospitable. We would definitely stay here again.

Beyond Our Expectations! This property is ideally located in the north end of Longboat Key on a canal that’s great for fishing at your back door! The house is very clean, the beds and furniture very comfortable, and the kitchen well stocked. All the conveniences of home at the beach. The walk to the beach is easy and short, and the beach is beautiful and uncrowded. Beach chairs, beach cart, beach towels, umbrellas, and sand toys were much appreciated. The washer and dryer are top notch and got a good workout from us this week. We would not hesitate to book this home again, in fact we are already planning our next stay in this home.

Stephanie makes for an amazing host! Check-in was so easy and she was great with giving directions and instructions. The Carriage House was clean, cute, and well stocked! Stephanie had really thoughtful amenities from shampoo and conditioner, to beach chairs and sunburn gel - what more could beach goer want?! Check-out was simple and easy as well. Location is excellent, walking distance to tons of dining and shopping. Bed was super comfy and huge too - Ive slept on some rough beds at even the sweetest AirBnBs but this one was so comfy! Awesome find, would recommend and would def stay again!

Amazing location The location of the home really made a week long beach trip with 2 kids run very smoothly! The house is accurately described. Having access to the beach toys, chairs, etc, etc was very helpful! Loved our stay and will be back!

A lovely place full of everything you need!Very well situated— you can walk all over.
Very pleasant owner.

Stephanie’s place was great. She has thought of everything you might need for your stay. She is very easy to communicate with, and the location of the house is so convenient to town. We would definitely stay here again.

No better value in Sarasota. We were a short walk into town, but even shorter with the bikes provided. When we went to the beach we had beach towels and chairs and even an umbrella included. Access to the place was super easy and located in a quiet neighborhood. The kitchen has some excellent amenities like the microwave oven and hot plate. There was an ice machine which came in handy. Most of all we enjoyed using the washer/dryer to clean all our clothes before coming home. Stephanie had a little welcome letter, snacks and chocolates on the bed. Little touches go a long way. If we return I would stay here again no question.

We spent a week at the house and loved every minute of it. The pool was refreshing after a day at the beach. Stephanie was a gracious host and responded quickly to any questions we had. Many nights were spent relaxing on the dock.

Wonderful place to stay just outside a charming little town. This place had everything you might need and organized in a logical way. Having access to bikes was a great way to get around.

Great place and great location! Stayed here the whole week of Thanksgiving 2020. Location is perfect...very short walk to the beach, walkable to restaurants and shops. House has everything you need and more! Quieter end of the island so the beach is not too packed.

Wonderful place

Stephanie is a great host. The place was clean and cozy. The location can't be in a better spot. Walking distance to food, entertainment, and Sarasota Bay.

My siblings and I stayed here for our first annual sibling trip and it was amazing! The place was sparkling clean and decorated so cute. They had a shed full of beach supplies for us to use: chairs, umbrellas, coolers, etc. There were plenty of beach towels and regular linens. All we needed to bring were our personal items and food. The beach was even closer than it looks in the pictures and beautiful! Stephanie was a great host and was very quick to respond when needed. I would to totally stay here again and would recommend it to everyone!

Thank you so much Stephanie, we had a wonderful time. It felt very homey to everyone! Communication was prompt. We really appreciate the welcoming feeling.
We loved being just steps from the beach. The house is clean, it has all the utensils to cook and wine glasses (thank you for that) very clean. Comfortable beds. Definitely a place to come back.

Stephanie is super responsive and the location of this home in the heart of Anna Maria, is hard to beat. We enjoyed it very much!!

We loved our experience. The house was super clean and comfortable. Stephanie was very helpful and responsive. It was an overall great vacation for our family. We will be returning

Great location! Had everything we needed and was very spacious! Stephanie was a very responsive and good host. We enjoyed our stay and will go back!

Stephanie's place is beautiful! The location can't be beat, and the Carriage House was perfect for our needs. It's clean, updated, and has everything you would need. We could've just brought our charging cords because they even have a charging hub! Stephanie was very good about responding to questions, and made sure we had everything we needed. I highly recommend staying here the next time you are visiting Sarasota! You won't be disappointed!

Highly recommend this house, close to the beach with a great view. Walking distance to shops, bean point beach, and restaurants! Stephanie is a great host, with clear and fast communication. Would definitely stay again!

We had a fantastic time at Stephanie's place. It was spotless, spacious, and well-furnished. Stephanie was quick to communicate. The location was perfect -- a very easy walk to the charming Sarasota downtown and a short drive to the beaches. We'll be back!

Asombroso lugar y atención, solo van a dejar el lugar y no se van a olvidar nunca más de el......

Lovely apartment for the couple of nights we stayed there - nice neighbourhood, stylish place and good communication. We thoroughly recommend it.

Great location to the beach and local food The house was spotless and in the perfect location for a relaxing beach vacation. It is well equipped in the kitchen and for the beach (toys, towels, umbrella, and more). Walking distance to a great coffee shop and taqueria. Stephanie was friendly, helpful, and very professional. We will go back this year. I stayed with my spouse and 2 children ages 4 and 7. Lovely place for a nice family vacation.

Awesome !!!! Very happy with our recent stay. The house is exactly as described. Stephanie and Mike were both very nice and thought of many nice extra touches to make our stay fantastic. Great location, enjoyed the pool and the dock. Rented a boat and had a great time fishing and soaking up the sun. Would highly recommend this house. Perfect for a relaxing vacation.

I'll start by saying Fischer Vacation Rentals offers top-notch customer service. I have stayed at their Carriage House property as well as the Longboat Key property. With the onset of Covid-19, our plans changed on multiple occasions and Stephanie was more than accommodating. Then, during each stay she was always quick to respond with any questions that came up. She goes out of her way to make sure you are taken care of.With respect to the properties, they are very much as described. The pictures don't always do the property justice. The Longboat Key Property was perfect for our family of four. The three spacious bedrooms and large living room provided plenty of space for all to be comfortable. The screened-in pool on the property was clean and refreshing after a long day at the beach. As an example of the responsiveness, we contacted Stephanie about the absence of a putter for the golf green on the property. She stopped out the following day with a putter and golf balls. This is just a small example of the personal service i've come to expect from Fischer Vacation Rentals. A+ all the way around!

The carriage house was great! It was very nicely appointed and had all the amenities you could want! It was within walking distance of downtown: shopping, great restaurants, a movie theater, and a wonderful consignment shop! (It was a shorter stay for us, so we didn’t take advantage of the bikes and the kayak. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again!

Perfect location Wonderful place Great place to relax

Beautiful place and so close to everything. Stephanie is the perfect host and all of her thoughtful touches really make staying here the most relaxing experience. We will definitely be back!

The location is right in the middle of everything you could need and all the best places in town. I highly recommend this place and I personally plan to rebook in the future when in town.

Stephanie’s carriage house was the perfect spot for our week stay in Sarasota. The apartment was spotlessly clean and thoughtfully appointed with all the kitchen appliances and gadgets we needed to make a few meals in. The location can’t be beat- the area is charming and accesssible to wonderful restaurants, Sarasota Bay front and entertainment. We enjoyed using the comfortable bicycles all over town and over the scenic bridge to St. Armands Circle and Lido Beach. Stephanie and Mike were very gracious, friendly and helpful.

Terrific spot in a very central location in downtown Sarasota. Our friends, who stayed in a nearby hotel, were so jealous! We walked to Owens Fish Camp Restaurant (always love it there!), and only wish we had had more time to explore. Having lived in Sarasota for two brief stints, we knew that we'd like the location but it was better than expected! You won't be disappointed!

Had a fun girls weekend at Anna Maria Island. The beach house suited all our needs, and close proximity to the beach was a big plus. The house is very comfortable with a large kitchen, laundry facilities on-site, beach accessories, and more. Some shops and restaurants are within walking distance. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!

Location was amazing - we walked everywhere. The house was super comfortable and had everything we needed, including beach gear. Stephanie was a gracious host and had great recommendations for restaurants and secluded beach spots

The pink palm is a beautiful rental home! Amazingly clean and well stocked. We had everything we needed! The owner was very responsive and accommodating.

Great location and great stay!!

Fantastic stay! Our family loved our time here!

Stephanie’s place was a great getaway! Just a short walk to the beach. She had beach chairs, a wagon and beach toys at the house. It was great not having to bring our own. The house was very clean and had everything we needed for the week!!

Stephanie and her husband were great! Very warm and welcoming! We even got to play with Rondo! ( the cute poodle). Our stay was perfect! The location is Awesome and we would definitely return. They provided everything we needed and then some! Look no further!

Great place Perfect spot for 2 or less to enjoy all that downtown Sarasota has to offer.

Perfectly located on a quiet street but only a couple of blocks away from some great restaurants. Stephanie is a great host — couldn’t ask for more.

Great location! Steps from the beach and an easy to walk to restaurants and stores.

Stephanie’s house was everything we hoped it would be. I only wish we could have stayed longer! The location is great too.

Stephanie was clear and proactive about check- in directions and instructions. The apt was spotless and in a great location to walk to several great restaurants and the botanical gardens. Easy beach access. Would definitely stay again!

Stephanie’s place is great, exceeded our expectations for a 3 night getaway with family. The house is charming and the kitchen is renovated and equipped to make all your meals at home! We especially enjoyed the margarita machine. Beds are comfortable, bathrooms are clean, and the walk to the beach is 3 minutes tops. We can’t wait to book our return!

Very nice place great location.

Cute property close to the beach. Quiet, walkable to shops and restaurants. Seaside Sanctuary is well equipped for a beach vacation. There are plenty of beach chairs, umbrella, sand toys, and outdoor foot shower. A gas grill is available also. The upper level where we stayed has a great deck to enjoy afternoon cocktails and morning coffee. Inside the two bedrooms have comfortable beds, the living area and kitchen have everything you need. The entire space is decorated in a “beachy” decor which is very appealing. The apartment is bright and clean , a perfect spot !!!

We have a great time, the place was clean, close to the beach and the owner was great to deal with!

What an excellent time we had on this property! Amenities were plentiful and the location was top notch for enjoying all that Sarasota has to offer. Spotlessly clean with personal touches, this was one of the best experiences for a weekend getaway that we’ve had to date. Highly recommend. We will be back!

Location and space can’t be beat! This unit is just steps away from the beach. Clean and comfy home perfect for your beach get-away.

Beautiful Carriage House perfect for 2! The Carriage House was beautiful, well maintained, stocked with anything we might need. The area is convenient to shops, restaurants and beaches. Stephanie responds quickly to questions or messages! We would stay again!

Stephanie's home is beautiful, clean and full of little touches to make your stay comfortable! She reapondes very fast and provides information about the city and places around you. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay!

Cute place very clean and spacious with a very short walk to the beautiful beach. Thanks Stephanie!
