Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Manatee County

A Perfect Blend of Charm, Comfort, and Location We had an amazing stay at this Airbnb! The home is full of historic charm—from the vintage architectural details to the cozy, thoughtfully curated décor, everything felt both timeless and welcoming. It’s clear the hosts put a lot of love into maintaining the character of the place while still offering all the modern comforts. One of our favorite features was the spacious backyard. It felt like our own private oasis, complete with a beautiful pool that was perfect for relaxing afternoons in the sun. Whether we were swimming, lounging, or enjoying coffee on the patio, the outdoor space made the trip feel extra special. The neighborhood was quiet and friendly, and we loved how close it was to downtown. It only took a few minutes to get to great restaurants, shops, and local events. Plus, being within walking distance to the river was a huge bonus—we enjoyed morning strolls and evening walks along the water.

My family and I had a great stay during our spring break. We had our 3 kids (ages 2, 7, and 12) and they absolutely loved the pool and hot tub. The house was very clean and the beds were comfortable. Several beaches nearby on Anna Maria Island. We will definitely be back and our kids already want us to plan our next vacay here. Thanks Jen and Brittany 💕

Terrific location, great house. Jeff was easy to communicate with and we had a wonderful stay. Would highly recommend!

Clean and beautiful home, we really enjoyed our stay! The host Lisa was extremely helpful! Definitely recommended 👌🏼

Jamin’s place is a little hidden gem. It was the perfect place for us to stay while attending an event at the Bradenton Convention Center.

We had a wonderful stay at Chris’s house on longboat key! The pool was so nice for the kids and us adults to swim and relax by. The house was very nice and the beds were very comfortable. There were plenty of towels, extra sheets, and the kitchen was very well stocked with pot and pans. We did find it easier to drive closer to the crosswalk to the beach and park before walking across the street to get to the beach access. The beach was very quiet and beautiful. We found so many shells and our kids loved doing evening swims at sunset! It’s a very quick drive to Anna Maria Island and St Armand’s Circle. We really enjoyed our stay.

We were able to book a 3 night stay last minute and the hosts were super easy to work with. The house was more than we needed and everything available to make our stay enjoyable. They were quick to respond and answer questions. House is super clean and location allowed us to get to the beach and away from it when needed. We appreciate the space that allowed us to relax and unwind after a busy week.

We had a great stay in Sarasota. Chris’ home was clean and spacious with an ideal layout. Kitchen was recently redone and opened beautifully to living area. I enjoyed having coffee by the pool in the morning. The location was convenient and just a 12 minute drive to Siesta key. Very happy with everything we got for a fair price.

Courtney went above and beyond to make our stay perfect from flexible check in to flexible check out. Her place is the perfect beach bungalow. Pristine condition and so clean! She had coffee, tea and snacks for us. She had beach chairs, beach towels, beach umbrella and sunscreen for us to use as well. Thank you for an amazing place, Courtney!

Excellent stay here and I definitely felt the zen! We stayed for a month, with my wife and sons visiting as their schedules allowed. It’s just a great location, minutes from Lido Beach, St Armands Circle and all the restaurants in downtown Sarasota, also close to the airport and easy to get over to University Town Center. The apartment is beautifully decorated and had everything we needed, including beach equipment, linens, towels, cooking utensils and multiple TVs so everyone could watch what they wanted. The pool and fitness facility are top notch. Overall, a great stay, highly recommended.

The location is walking distance to so many restaurants downtown! Pool is beautiful and refreshing. This is our second stay at Bold Lofts and would highly recommend!

Cute little spot, host was very responsive, proactive and good recommendations in the welcome book, the back pool is a show stopper

We loved staying in Peter and Pearl's unique and artsy home! They have thought of everything anyone could possibly need for a short or extended stay in one of our favorite places - Sarasota. Their home exceeds above and beyond all expectations of what an Airbnb/VRBO should be. My husband and I would definitely stay here again!

Kim was a great host. Her property was amazing. Kim was very easy to communicate with and everything we needed to know was clear in the instructions. The pool was fabulous. From day to night it was always just a perfect temperature. Reading outside is the perfect peaceful vibe, especially when stormy came for a visit. We would definitely rent this again. Everything we needed was close in proximity and the amenities can’t be beat

Lovely, private, peaceful place to stay in Sarasota. It was perfect for the 2 of us and much bigger than expected. Nice outdoor area to sit and relax. 100 recommended!
