Host's response: Thank you for the review Meredith! We are here to make happy happen! Nikolay Stayed Apr, 2024 Review 1) Location is great / beach in back yard2) Hosts were very responsive / any minor issues they took care of right away / same day. That being said, I felt there were way too many warnings both in emails and stickers around the place, as in "don't steal the towels", "if umbrella flies off we'll charge you", "if you don't comply with check out instructions we'll charge you" etc. 3) giving 4 stars overall as the place itself still needs a bit work - 1 tiny tv in living room (none in bedroom), 1 night stand in bedroom (not 2 on ea bed side), 1 el. outlet in entire bedroom, across from the bed.. Also, while walls are not paper thin, you'll still hear neighbors - if you want to get up say 10am but neighbors are up 7am you'll be probably up with them.. Again overall great potential / due to location but they should invest some more in the building Host's response: We love this little property because it is so rare to walk out the backdoor and be on the sand. Thank you for crediting us with being responsive and dedicated to making things right! We aim for a 5-star experience for every one of our guests. Of course it's hard to please everyone but, we try! I understand your thoughts on the signs- especially the umbrella is actually a major safety concern in Florida- a windy day and umbrellas can be dangerous so there is some special attention needed there. We work hand in hand with these homeowners to make happy vacations possible. Your feedback about the signs, TV and nightstand will be discussed. Thank you Nikolay and hope you come back soon, the beach will be waiting! The SkyRun Sarasota Team Tonia Stayed Apr, 2024 Review Enjoyed the location to the beach, beach chairs and especially the sliding glass doors that fully opened the room to the pationot shown in pics so was an added surprise. Appreciated that they allowed us in an hour early since the cleaning was done early and our flight arrived early. Will definitely stay again with Sky Run. Host's response: Thank you so much for that wonderful review Tonia. We strive for you and all of our guests to have a 5-star vacation!
