This is our 5th yr coming back to this place and it never disappoints! Our hosts Steven and Susan are so gracious! Never intrusive but immediately available should the occasion arise. The condo is kept immaculate! Fully updated kitchen bathrooms etc. furnishings! All the linens, soaps , paper goods, cleaning products, appliances, dishes, glassware, pots and pans always new and kept up to date!Brand new washer/dryer to handle any capacity etc. Steve even replaced loveseat with a brand new one while down here! Very tastefully decorated by Sue of course! She actually showed up one night with a brand new beach umbrella for us. Sturdy beach chairs, coolers and a standup wagon to carry all this to beaches. Lots of beach towels and good quality towels and bedding. The living room has lots of comfy pillows on sofa and loveseat. Dining table with new chairs plus another table in breakfast nook with nice chairs. The master bedroom, en-suite bathroom and walk-in closets are extremely spacious. This place is very comfortable for us and our families who have come down in the past.The 2nd bedroom and sleeper sofa make it easy for our children and grandchildren to enjoy a comfortable stay.The lanai is perfect for those early mornings and late evenings to relax in after long days at beaches.In 5 years we’ve seen the Gulf Gate estates area flourish.With so many restaurants, pizzerias and breakfast places to choose from. Siesta Key beach is less than 10 mins away! We Love this place!

Everything we needed was there at hand. The only problem was how noisy it was with the family staying above us. You could hear them walking on the floor, moving chairs, etc. That woke us up very early in the morning. Also, the shades in the guest BR do not keep the sun out in the morning. Availability of a gas grill on the property would have been useful.

Wonderful Siesta Condo!

We loved this condo. Very clean, modern and comfortable. The kitchen is really well equipped with all essentials and bonus of Tupperwares, ziplocks and staple spices, which is rare in rentals. We also loved how spacious and beautiful the space was. 2 full baths was amazing for my 2 kids. As was having a full washer/dryer (with soap provided!) and dishwasher. Everything was super handy and Steve was super attentive and responsive.There was a handy stroller for beach chairs and coolers as well. And even a pickle ball set!!! We had a blast!I thought the pool was right next to the property based on the photos, but you have to walk across a couple buildings to get to it and it’s shared with the entire complex (there were usually 2-4 people there). Nonetheless, it’s a lovely and heated pool and the drive to Siesta is just 15 min away. We enjoyed both!!We will definitely be back!

Perfect Gem!

Having come down to the same place 4 yrs now, there so much to say. This place became our home away from home!Description online is exactly as it states with some upgrades throughout our stays. Totally remodeled with an awesome decor! Full size kitchen with open concept made it so easy to have our grandchildren and families well entertained. And mattresses, furniture all very comfortable! Enough sleeping quarters for 4 adults plus a queen size leather sofa bed. Master bedroom quite large with shower fall and large walk-in closet.Our children and grandchildren came down during their winter and spring breaks. And loved relaxing at the heated outdoor pool!All you could ask for with supplies, beach towels, beach chairs ,umbrellas, coolers, linens, kitchenware, appliances just as if it were your own home. The area is a perfect spot, just 5 mins to Siesta Beach! With many more beaches to explore within 15 mins of the condo. All the grocery stores, shops, restaurants, pizza places, seafood places etc. Steve is an incredible host! Answers questions promptly, comes by with your permission 1st if anything needs changing, like AC filter or delivery of a new washer. Check in is so easy and we’ve always arrived to a very warm and welcoming place. We have commitment's for the following year, But know that whomever books this condo will be very pleased!Thanks to our hosts Steve and Susan for making our last 4 winters here, awesome and totally memorable!

Amazing hospitality and friendly neighbors!

Steve was outstanding. We had everything we needed for our stay and more. Steve allowed us to borrow his bikes for which we were so vey grateful. We had been plenty of towels, and high quality beach chairs, umbrella and a wagon. The pans provided were extremely high quality- thank you! The pool was large(6'6" at deep end! And was heated so we could enjoy it daily. The neighbors are friendly- some permanent residents and some renting- we really enjoyed our time here. We usually stay close to downtown Sarasota but decided to try Gulf Gate this time. There are many fantastic restaurants in the area and 10-15 min to Siesta Key beach. Thanks for a wonderful stay!!

Wonderful condo with an amazing host!

My husband, cousin and I had to make an unexpected trip to Sarasota. We were unable to arrive during the check in time, but no worries! Our host Steve was super accommodating and it was no trouble for us to arrive late. Upon our arrival we found everything we would possibly need. The extra kitchen supplies (coffee, sugar, oil, spices, etc.) were helpful for a week stay at the condo. There were also paper products, soap for laundry/dishwashers/hands, and plenty of cleaning supplies. Sadly, we did not have time to use the beautiful pool or go to the beach, but there were plenty of towels and supplies if we did go. Steve reached out several times to ensure we had everything we needed. I checked in periodically and Steve was always very responsive. Steve was sensitive to our unique needs due to a family emergency. He ensured we had his support and continued to be extremely flexible with our additional needs during our stay. I highly recommend staying at this condo!! Plenty of space, which is ideal for two couples or a family. A desk in one bedroom which was nice for some work time away from the rest of the group. The washer/dryer was helpful, and worked great. The beds were extremely comfortable and sheets/towels were good quality. There are plenty of restaurants, grocery stores nearby. We wish we could have stayed longer! Thank you for your kindness, Steve!!

This Place is a Charm!

This is our 3rd yr spending 2 months in this awesome condo! Place is totally renovated making it very comfortable for either two or family with grandkids. Decorated tastefully with many accents to make it feel like “ home away from home”. Place is fully stocked with towels, linens, extra pillows, beach towels, even coolers and beach chairs with umbrellas. Kitchen is also stocked with all the appliances you would normally have back at home. This place is central to all. Shopping centers, grocery stores. Many choices for restaurants whether it’s just having a pizza or a night out with friends! Of course can’t forget about how close you are to Siesta Beach! And all the other beaches along the way to Venice! Let’s not forget downtown Sarasota with all it has to offer! The heated pool at condo is definitely the place to be for a relaxing day! And the best part is having great hosts like Steven & Susan who go all out to ensure your stay is the best ever! Any questions Steven is always readily available. Looking forward to next year!

This condo worked great for us. The location was perfect and the condo had everything we needed. It was so well stocked. The owner was very responsive and willing to help with anything. There was one glitch at check-in, but the owner made up for it and apologized. It may have even been VRBO’s fault. Anyway, I would gladly rent this place again.

Nice place to enjoy Sarasota without the tourist chaos

We had a nice stay with our daughter, husband and two pre-school grandkids; we were able to enjoy the pool with the kids, local eateries were great, and a we found a nice boat rental option which was the highlight of the week. The condo itself was nicely appointed for our small group and the option to enjoy the lanai for coffee in the AM and wine in the PM was truly the relaxing location we were hoping to have!

Comfortable place to take in Sarasota and surrounding areas

We were two couples staying to celebrate a 30 year wedding anniversary. The condo was clean and efficient. The location was convenient to downtown Sarasota, taking a drive up the keys to Anna Maria, renting a boat for the day, of course a day on the beach at Siesta Key, and even for a day trip south to see the Everglades. Plenty of casual restaurants and bars in close proximity and we enjoyed a couple of pretty nice ones as well.

Return Renters!

This is our second year here being hosted by Steve & Susan! They make this place so welcoming and comfortable you almost forget this is a vacation home! Our host welcomed us with treats plus coffee and cream! Even had the same mailman who left us a “welcome back” note in mailbox! There’s so much to say about the property. Ground floor unit. Assigned parking space and lots of guest spots. Totally renovated condo! Lots of nice touches- leave it to Susan for the awesome coastal feel! New window treatments this year! Even had reading and game material. Plenty of linens, towels, comfy pillows, tons of toilet paper and paper towel, dish soaps, cleaning products, detergent and more. Really nice new leather queen sofa bed which was also very comfortable for our teenage granddaughter. Comfortable sleeping arrangements in both bedrooms. Well stocked pantry, fridge etc. Kitchen fully equipped with all the cutlery, plates, pots and pans , casseroles, appliances, etc. Plus enough beach chairs, boogie boards and beach umbrellas. The pool is well taken care of and was great for non-beach days. Nice cabana to dine in also. New lounge chairs were provided this year. Within minutes of Siesta beach, and very close to many others. Close to many restaurants, steakhouses, pizzerias , breakfast places and coffee shops. The lanai was also a welcome respite for my husband and our granddaughter spent lots of down time there too! Our host was always available to ensure we had everything. Thanks again for having us! We can’t wait to return next year!
