Amazing stay at beautiful home!

Our family loved our Spring Break stay at this beautiful home! The pool was warm despite some chilly temperatures and the outdoor kitchen was amazing for grilling and watching the NCAA tournament. The inside of the home is immaculate and absolutely adorable. We would definitely stay here again!

Sarasota Sun and fun

This quaint spot was perfect for getting to the sites in Sarasota we wanted to visit. The house was clean and comfortable, the back yard with the salt water pool was beautiful and delightful, day or night.

Great for our girls trip!

We had such a fun time at this little house. The tv outside was perfect to watch by the pool. We are definitely planning to stay again! Close to downtown Sarasota so it was a quick Uber ride to several restaurants. Lots of peacocks roaming around the neighborhood and we loved it.

Great Escapel

What a wonderful, not overstated, terrifically located property! Needed to work while visiting, WiFi was excellent! Air conditioning for those not acclimated to the heat was def not cool enough, but that was a personal issue. Loved our time here!!

Wedding Weekend

Booked the property for a family wedding and stayed the weekend. The outdoor spaces were fantastic - football and grilling by the pool made for a heavenly Saturday, Very comfortable property, and the proximity to the airport made it very convenient to pick-up / drop-off family. A great overall experience!

Amazing Place!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sapphire Shores. The place is clean and wonderfully decorated. And the back patio/pool area is amazing. Truly a place to kick back and relax. Lacey at Mainsail was super responsive and helpful with anything we reached out about. It was easy to get to downtown Saratoga, Lido Beach and even Siesta Key (depending on traffic!). Definitely would stay again if in Saratoga.

wonderful vacation

we could not have picked a more perfect place to spend a week. First, the house is located in the most lovely neighborhood. Huge trees, beautiful vegetation, quiet and yet near everything. Don’t miss a walk around the neighborhood. The house is perfect, -clean, comfortable, beds comfy (important to me). Everything is thoughtfully provided. The pool, backyard is just delightful. We were blessed with gorgeous weather so we took full advantage of the outdoor space. This is the only place I would come back to in Sarasota. Highest recommendation.

We’ll Miss this Winter Retreat

We had a wonderful week at this property—and had absolutely perfect weather! Enjoyed seeing roaming peacocks on our morning walks in the neighborhood, ate breakfast/lunch and played cribbage in the outdoor dining area, relaxed and soaked up the sun by the pool, and explored many local restaurants for dinner. Many amenities were provided and accommodations very comfortable. We played tennis at a local park, hit range balls at a local golf course, played mini-golf, and shopped at Ellenton mall. We were sad to leave this winter retreat!

Relaxing work trip

Property was clean and inviting. I had work and decided to bring the family. We extended the stay and had a blast. We had a personal issue reached out to the property manager. Without hesitation, she jumped right in And took care of it. That exceeded my expectations. If work brings me back. I would definitely book again.

Absolutely perfect!

This property was perfect. It is close to everything you could possibly want to do in Sarasota and is in a very safe-feeling and quiet location. It is exactly as advertised and has the cutest indoor and outdoor decor. Everything was spotless, and the beds were super comfy. The backyard is the best part and made us not really want to leave to go do anything else. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool and patio area. There is a grill that is fully equipped and an outdoor TV, which made for a lot of fun. We even had a peacock visitor hang out on the front porch for a few hours! Absolutely would love to stay here again.

Great Place in Indian Beach

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was the perfect spot for a comfortable and relaxing stay with my daughter. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle with a taste of “old Sarasota.” The home was spotless upon our arrival and had all of the essentials to get us going — toiletries, coffee, and dish washing supplies. The space is nicely appointed and comfortable for 2-4 people. The backyard is a beautiful oasis with a pool, an outdoor kitchen, and plenty of space for lounging. And very close to the airport which was very convenient. A great place overall.

Winter getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall the place was great. A few of the features didn’t work like the outdoor fridge and cooler. Moots of the decorative led lights also did I not work in the front and backyard. One of the gutter led patio lights was also out. I would suggest adding a string or lights on the trellis to make the patio more useful at night.

Indian Beach Sapphire Shored

Loved the location, the house, the pool was great. beds were comfortable. Kitchen and items for use was sufficient. A coupe suggestions, supply enough toilet paper for the week, nice to have salts and pepper but there was very little salt in the shaker. Very inconvenient to have to buy a full container. Can’t take that in the plane, too big, same with toilet paper. Could only find an 8 pack. We left 7.5 rolls there for the next people. TV kept losing signal. Had to wait for the WiFi signal to come back. Happened frequently everyday. But the good by far out weight the minor inconveniences. We had a great time. Beautiful neighborhood. Would love to come back next year!
