We haven’t had a vacation since the Pandemic & decided we’d head to our favorite state of Florida. Normally we stay in Fort Myers, Naples area, but this time we decided to change it up and visit an area we were not familiar w/& stayed in Bradenton/Sarasota. We were not disappointed. So many different beaches, restaurants & lots of different things to see & do. We did take a day to travel South, to our dismay it has changed - things are not the same :(. In any case. The house was beautiful, large & equipped w/all the things you would need for any circumstances. The kitchen was stocked, the 2 bathrooms had full toiletries, no need to bring shampoos or soaps. They even had chairs, coolers, and wagon for the beach!
The one hiccup we experienced was when we first arrived we got there a tad early and we were not allowed to enter the property not even 15 minutes before our arrival. Check in is 4:00 and I asked @ 1:00 if we could arrive earlier & the Host Company stated they would “check” with “someone”, I’m unsure who? I assumed w/the housekeeping staff. They returned with an answer that they would respond when we could check in, if it was earlier then 4:00. So we actually drove to the house about 3:45 & there was absolutely NO ONE there & again asked if we could enter & was still told NO. I’m still not sure why, but it was a little ridiculous that guests who drove over 20 hours couldn’t enter until exactly 4:00. Otherwise it was a wonderful stay!
