Fitness-friendly holiday rentals in Sarasota County

We had a great time at the Villas. This neighborhood is very peaceful and has all you need. We enjoyed being able to go to the pool and hot tub. The location is perfect - close to the beach and restaurants. Bea was quick to communicate and was helpful. Will be coming back.

Very relaxing atmosphere…comfortable bed…everything worked:AC, TV, and Denise was very responsive . She suggested excellent restaurants within walking distance. It’s a quiet neighborhood within walking distance of downtown. Museums and Selby Gardens within walking distance.

Fabulous! The beach is across the street and there are beach chairs, towels, umbrellas, noodles,cooler, wagon,etc. The view of the Gulf of Mexico from the Lanai is stunning .The Village is a mile away with lots of fun bars and restaurants . We loved this place!

Ewelina’s property was both beautiful and functional. The kitchen was large and well stocked. The condo was tastefully decorated. The location is ideal for us, as it is close to downtown and not far from the beaches and the ballpark. Ewelina is an excellent host. She reached out in advance of our stay, communicated very clear instructions for entry, and stayed in touch while we were there. She responded very promptly to all the questions we had. We would love to return to Ewelina’s property again!!

We had a wonderful stay at this apartment! Everything was spotless, well-equipped, and exactly as described—if not better. Robert clearly went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Communication was smooth and responsive throughout our stay. The location was perfect for our vacation, and we felt right at home. Highly recommended!

This stay was amazing. Extremely beautiful, clean, comfortable, well stocked condo with everything you need for a family vacation. The one swimming pool is diagonal from the condo and just a short walk to the private beach. Perfect location and very close to the village. Richard was extremely responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We loved staying here! We will be booking this again for next year!

Great location able to drive to beaches easily very beautiful condo car parked in garage. Nicer clean pool was able to see it checked daily from the balcony. My 11 year old granddaughter had a wonderful time

We had an incredible stay at this Sarasota Airbnb! It was the perfect home base for exploring the area—from Venice to Anna Maria Island. We especially loved our beach days at Lido and Siesta Key, and the unforgettable kayak excursion through the Sarasota mangroves. The condo was spotless, welcoming, and stocked with everything we needed for a great week. Uber pickups were always within 2 minutes, making it so easy to get to the many amazing restaurants nearby. The host was outstanding—always quick to respond and went above and beyond to accommodate our arrival and departure times. The secure, well-maintained community and relaxing pool made it feel like a true getaway. Honestly, we could have stayed for months!

Great price, great place! Easy walk to the ocean. Great for fishing. Close by to ice cream and restaurants.

We live in the area and had extensive home repairs ongoing, so we needed a place to stay nearby. The condo was perfect and a step up from other options we've used and at a price we could afford. We stayed two weeks and felt very comfortable. Everything was well cared for, clean, and easy to use. The condo felt spacious and the view over the water was simply gorgeous, featuring dozens of pelicans every day we were there. Inside, the layout was simple and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed and each of the bedrooms was perfect for us. The expansive master bath with a lovely shower, washer/dryer, and storage closest gave us room to stay clean and organized. Parking was easy with a reserved spot close to the elevator, and the hosts gave excellent and proactive instructions on what to do and how to do it. We had no problems getting into the unit and appreciated how peaceful and safe the place felt.

Brenda’s place was just as listed. Great location, clean, great space to call home for the week. Within walking or short drive to many restaurants and shopping areas. Walk to the beach was easy especially with all the beach supplies in the condo. Brenda was also very responsive when I reached out with clarifying questions.

This was our first time to Siesta Key so we weren’t disappointed. . We didn’t get into late and in the dark the place was a little harder to find. The pool is a good landmark. Eric had the home feeling welcoming upon arrival. There was complimentary champagne, red wine, cold waters, and candies. Plenty of towels including a few for pool and beach. Was nice to sit out on the patio in the morning and enjoy the sunshine and some coffee. It was about a mile walk down to the Village where most of the shopping, restaurants, coffee shops, and things to do were, but it was an easy walk and/or short trolley ride to get there. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

We have just spent a wonderful 10 days in Sarasota staying in Jennifer’s apartment at The Strand. The accommodation was perfect in every way; a real home from home with everything thoughtfully provided by our host - from toiletries and cleaning products to beachtowels and even a coolbox. The apartment was spotless and easily accessible and communication with our host was so simple. Jennifer always responded swiftly to any messages and nothing was ever too much trouble. We would not hesitate to return to this accommodation again and highly recommend both the apartment and our host, Jennifer, to anyone looking for high quality, comfortable surroundings for their holiday.

This was an amazing condo for our family trip! Pictures and listing were very accurate and it was so lucky to find a property on Siesta Key that was actually on the beach. We would absolutely stay here again! The beach is stunning and the two pools are wonderfully maintained Some things worth mentioning (they are disclosed in the listing) - you must provide your own beach/pool towels but there are plenty of shopping options nearby - beach chairs are free and located once you get down to the beach - for a fee, you can reserve/rent an umbrella and have it set up for you during your stay. The guys are out there early (7-7:30am) but then come in around lunch time so if you want an umbrella, I suggest going out in the morning to get it setup - dish soap, dishwasher tablets, hand soap are provided but you’ll need to purchase everything else (salt/pepper, spices, oil, ziplocks, shampoo/conditioner, etc). Super central location and very secure property! Would definitely stay here again!

Such a beautiful place to stay! Very clean! The kitchen was stocked with all the dishes you will need. The view was amazing!!! The free trolly into the village was so easy. The beach accessories were so nice to use. All we had to do was cross the street and we were on the beach. The pool area was also very nice! Grilling area was nice and clean and a small smoking area so my husband could enjoy a few cigars. Great communication! Thank you! Was a fantastic vacation!

Fantastic vacation! We flew in and this condo had everything we needed. I typically like to stay right on the beach, but the short walk was nice and well worth it. Beautiful private beach!!! Every recommendation was a home run. Thanks again.

Amazing place! Perfect for our large group that came and stayed for a week. Plenty of sleeping spaces. Great AC! Plenty of towels and beach gear to take. Overall very satisfied. Would definitely stay here again.

A Slice of Paradise was amazing. Robert was a GREAT Host , he answered every question with in hours, if not minutes. Great location and close to everything. After a couple days it felt like home, when our 6 weeks were up we did not want to leave. We hit 7 different beaches and some 3 or 4 time each. Shark’s and Pop’s were our favorite restaurants long with Dunkin most every day and DQ once a week Detwiler’s Farm Market on Tamiami Trail was our go to for fresh fruits and vegetables. Their bakery was wonderful. We would highly recommended A Slice of Paradise. We can’t wait to go back . Frank, Sue and Paisley.

Beautiful, clean place in a safe and fun location! There are so many fun activities to do at Sun Sarasota and unfortunately we didn’t have time to try them all! Jennifer was a great host and replied to my messages promptly. We would definitely rent from her again.

Ester and David’s home was exactly as listed. The photos were spot on. The house is absolutely adorable, comfortable and impeccably clean and organized. One of the best airbnbs we have stayed in. The backyard was so inviting, we k my wish we could have spent more time outside! Hoping next time we come to Sarasota this home will be available!

Jacob was a great host. I understand it is a new property for him. There is a few things that need to be done updated he was willing to do that while I was there was no big deal for my stay, but I know he will have those things done before his next guests are scheduled everything was absolutely perfect. Five star

Spacious and clean place! Worked great for our family with children. House is centrally located to all Venice has to offer. Neighborhood is quiet. Houses close together but backyard has privacy from neighbors on all sides due to nice privacy fence. Backyard screened in porch was a nice feature. We used the garage to park in which was nice. Games were a nice feature for the kids. House was very clean and felt large with tall ceilings and nice layout. Thanks Roman for the great stay!

I found this place to rent at last minute as I had an emergency trip to Florida due to my mom not doing well and was taken into the hospital and ended up really liking it. It’s super clean, cute and cozy. It’s perfect size for 2 people as I had my sister with me as well. It was nice to have a washer and dryer. Everything is stocked from dishes to coffee pot, to towels and extra blankets if needed. The hosts responded to my couple concerns in a timely fashion. I would definitely consider staying here again as it’s super convenient and in a great location to restaurants, grocery stores and even the hospitals.

The patio/pool area is second to none. Peaceful, pretty, private. Enjoyed the house a lot.
