Bits of Paradise Ranch

My family vacationed here last month and had a wonderful time! We loved the quiet, peaceful, serene atmosphere, but still close to the local restaurants, businesses and events of Sarasota. We enjoyed the white sand of the beaches here, and especially loved being so close to nature and the horses that live here-and learned so much about them! Our kids had plenty to do-the pool and even fished in the pond! We relaxed in our charming cottage. Our dogs had a great time, also! The hospitality was warm and welcoming, and the host recommended the many different things to do here in this city. We will definitely be back and have recommended our stay here with our friends up north! The Ammer family.

We stayed at the Vacation Home with Private Pool. It was very clean and updated. The towels/bedding/beach towels were all plush and comfortable. The decor was appropriate and beautifully arranged. The window blinds were of good quality (there were alot of sliding doors). :)
Lauraine did an excellent job of communicating before and during our stay. When the dryer broke, it was repaired by the next day. The updated kitchen was stocked with most of the necessary items, and we appreciated the dishwasher detergent, dishsoap, etc that was provided.
When we booked this house we assumed that the pool was heated (our mistake) and learned a few weeks before we came that it was NOT. We were disappointed but it was our fault for not confirming. It is a very nice pool otherwise! The patio/deck was very pleasant to spend time on.
One of our favorite parts was how the home is tucked away in the country, on a dead end street with a dirt road. It was so beautiful with the cows grazing on one side of the road, and a pond with alligators behind our house. Horses grazed beside the house also. Very relaxing and beautiful to watch God's nature!

This was my first time using an Airbnb but I fell in love with this location. Ample space and just a gorgeous house to be in. The staff is great and if I could I would live here

We stayed on this beautiful property in several of there Vacation rentals. It was an amazing time in such a rare property we couldn't believe we were so close to everything and so private. we'll be back with family next time we had a large party but they can accommodate from a couple to 40 . Thank you Lauraine for such professional service and making our staff feel like home. I personally can't wait to return.
