Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Downtown, Sarasota

We are a couple traveling to see new interesting places. Spend most of the day exploring the area, just need a quiet place to rest, sleep and cook dinner. This place was good for our purposes: quiet, private and close to many attractions of Sarasota.

We loved the house and the hosts. One of my best Airbnb experiences. It was exactly as expected. Love it!

My sister and I had a lovely stay at El Tropicale. We were attending a yoga retreat in Lakewood Ranch so the location was perfect. Very spacious and the pool is great! All communication was prompt and friendly. Would definitely stay here again.

Kathleen thought about everything! She went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we could possibly need during our stay. The property is recently renovated so a lot of things were new. The location was great and the house is located in a nice, quiet neighborhood. One thing to note is that one room has thick curtains instead of a door. It wasn’t a problem for us, but just mentioning it so people are aware. Would definitely consider booking Red Door Siesta again!

Sonia & Daniel's house exceeded all our needs for our son's stay visiting his grandparents in Venice. The house was very clean, nicely decorated and comfortable. Everything he needed was there, and he enjoyed a quiet place to relax. The screened in lanai was a nice place to enjoy morning coffee. The neighborhood was very peaceful, and our son was happy to be able to do a morning run down through Shamrock Park, which is on the water. Sonia and Daniel were very responsive to our messages. We would definitely consider renting this house again!

Romualda’s home was very clean, beautiful, and modern. She was very communicated from the time we booked the AirBnb, to the time we checked in, and the time we checked out. We felt right at home as she had many ameneties that were offered and more. We will definately book again next time we are in town.

Larisa's place was exactly how it was advertised. It was a great location with 10-15mins drive to downtown and the beaches. It was close to restaurants, groceries etc. Our little ones enjoyed the pool. Bring some toiletries when you come, other than that everything was available.

we came to Relax at the Beach and Christopher's place had everything we needed to do that. From coffee to Beach towels, He thought of everything.! We enjoyed our trip.

What a beautiful home and neighborhood. It was perfect for our needs. The pool was a huge plus and we swam every day.

This home is perfectly located for all beach and ocean activity. It was extremely convenient to our activities. It is located in a quiet neighborhood and yet an easy walk to many activities, restaurants, shopping. The interior of the home has been freshly done and was easy to use. The pool was especially perfect for our family’s use. It was a delightful home in all regards.

What a wonderful place! I would like to thank the host for providing an exceptional and comforting stay for me and my family. I definitely recommend this place and would return in the future. Thanks for everything!

Spent a few nights with my husband and kids and was not disappointed. The house was just what we needed for a weekend of fun! The pool was the main highlight but the house provided lots of beach amenities that made our stay even better. Birute's place was not far from town and was located in a quiet neighborhood. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a peaceful place to spend time with the people you love and enjoy what Siesta Key has to offer!

Marie was extremely accommodating. She answered all my concerns very quick. She is such a wonderful hosts. I recommend this place 100%. . It is very spacious house . it is makes you feel at home.

Lovely home with a large fenced backyard and a warm pool. Conveniently located near Robinson Preserve and Anna Maria Island. Michelle was quick to answer any questions. We enjoyed our stay.

Really great accommodation! Stayed with a group of friends. Loved the pool and outdoor space! Kitchen had all the amenities needed. Host was very responsive when we had a minor issue with the pool. Game room and laundry was a bonus! Beach is close but lots of traffic getting on/off Anna Maria Island. Beautiful beaches, recommend Coquina!

Ryan’s place was just right for our escape from the Wisconsin winter! We walked every morning to the Shamrock park and Nature center. Great restaurants and shopping in Venice.

Our 2nd stay and had a wonderful time! Thanks so much!

Mario's place was a great set up for our family. It's a little smaller than what we thought it was going to be but the island is so beautiful that we didn't really spend a lot of time inside anyways. We had a blast on our trip for a week. The only thing we didn't enjoy was the neighbor directly behind their place didn't like any noise at all. In the instructions it states that the "quiet" time is from 10:00 PM - 7:00 AM. There were two nights that we were being "loud" at 7:30ish PM outside in the pool having fun with our kids and she used choice words after banging on the fence to get us to quiet down. A few nights later around the same time she threatened to call the cops. We were enjoying our vacation, we weren't being rude at all, I think she is what I would consider the "Sherrif of No Fun" but other than those two nights we would highly recommend Mario and his place. It was a great location and we were able to enjoy your stay.

The Cottages were great hosts. The place had all the accommodations needed to make us feel right at home. Everything was clean and well kept. We particularly appreciated how stocked the house was, plenty of beach/pool towels, beach equipment (chairs, wagon), and all the other amenities we expected. The elevator is a great touch. I never thought we would need/want one, but with kids, beach gear, groceries, etc. it made a huge difference. We didn’t need much during our stay, but when we reached out, the host was very responsive. Overall, a great location, great house, and excellent host. Highly recommended.

My family and I had such an amazing stay at Jenny and Kenny’s place. Their beautiful home was so comfortable, clean and had basically everything that we could even think of for our beach vacation.

The Cottage on Pine is adorable! Such a quiet retreat nestled among great local shops and restaurants. The cottage was peaceful, comfortable, and conveniently located - walkable to everything we wanted to do. While we could walk to everything, we still enjoyed renting bikes and a golf cart to haul our beach equipment and tour the entire island. Thanks Once Upon a Beach for a great stay on AMI!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Canopy Cottage. This was our second year staying and loved it even more. Jami is an excellent host. We loved being close to the Legacy Trail to ride bikes and the sort drive to Siesta Key Beach! Would definitely stay again.

This home was perfect for our stay. The house was very neat, clean and in a peaceful neighborhood. Location was a short drive to great beaches. The kids really enjoyed the heated pool. House was equipped with everything we needed for our beach trip. Had a few questions and the response time was quick. This home helped us have a great memorable trip for our family. We hope to come back soon.

Had a wonderful stay! Place was in great location for what we wanted out of our vacation: golf, beach and bike trail! The accommodations were clean and roomy. Siesta Key Prop Mgmt was very responsive and brought us an extra beach chair and umbrella for our beach day! Would highly recommend!
