Honeymoon Vacation
What a wonderful time we had! The place was well-kept and perfectly private and secluded for us. We enjoyed time around the pool day and night and the place was super close to all kinds of fun restaurants and activities. We hope to be back. Thanks, Roy!

Relaxing paradise with unique history
My husband and I felt as though we were in our own backyard paradise. Everything was just as advertised. Location was convenient to great restaurants and beautiful sunsets on the bay. Roy was an excellent host! Communication with Roy is easy and pleasant. You do not have to hesitate to ask him for anything and he creates a very private atmosphere. We will return one day and highly recommend!

Relaxing
My boyfriend and I were looking for a place to relax and have “nothing” to do for a few days when we stumbled on roys place. We had anticipated the trip for months and when we arrived we were not disappointed. Roy’s place was everything we were looking for. We spent most of our time on the linai and pool. The bedroom was comfy and cozy. During our stay Roy was just a text away to help with anything or answer any questions. I would come here again and again.

Nice, clean place in a quiet neighborhood
Overall, a clean place in a nice quiet neighborhood. Privacy is definitely questionable, as the owner lives on the same property. It is basically a duplex with a wall divider in the pool. The back yard is shared and the owner seemed to just appear at odd times, behind the fence around the hot tub and outdoor shower. We stayed from Sunday to Thursday. On Tuesday the hot tub was shut off with the only explanation being "it's broken". The pool is not heated, so the hot tub was definitely a main attraction for choosing this property. Needless to say it was never fixed during the rest of our stay, which was definitely disappointing.

Fourth trip as good as the first.
Absolutely wonderful property. We fully intend to continue to come back when circumstances allow. We love coming to Roy's Place and are just completely relax while we're there. Pictures are accurate and I'm sure anyone will love it just as much as we do.

Relaxing Retreat
We found Roy’s place to be just as advertised and as all his favorable reviews suggested. Checkin a breeze with code provided, parking right in front. The pictures are very accurate. Fun decor, very clean and the space was perfect for us. The outdoor space, pool and hot tub really made for a nice week. Coming back from the beach and after dinner, the perfect little oasis. Thank you Roy!

Wonderful!!!
Roy’s place was the perfect place to stay for our Sarasota vacation. It is close to everything and even has a few places that you can walk to. Just a couple minute walk to watch the sunset over the bay. Everything was clean, beds and pillows are super comfortable, the furnishings are exceptional, and the outdoor area with the pool and the hot tub are the crown jewel! Everything as advertised. Very private. We were fortunate to meet Roy on our last day when we walked by him getting out of his car. Really nice guy! Definitely will return if the opportunity arises. Five + stars!!!

Perfect for our honeymoon!
My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and it was amazing! The quiet nights in the hot tub and how close the property was to everything was just perfect. Roy was quick to respond whenever we had questions, he was a great host!

We highly recommend Roy’s place. You couldn’t ask for a better place to get away to. It has everything you need and more. The pool and hot tub are wonderful and beaches are close by too.

We love it here!!
This was the most relaxing stay. My husband and I will remember it for a lifetime! The pool was so relaxing I fell asleep several times out there on the couch. It was amazing to just be able to get away. Oh and Starbucks AND Dunkin’ are within walking distance!!! I would walk the neighborhood most mornings and grab a coffee, thanks for a great stay Roy

Perfect vacation
The house was very nice with a nice pool and hot tub. We loved the outdoor shower and used it every day. Great location right near downtown Sarasota and lido key. Siesta key is also only a 25 minute drive away. We had a great stay and everything about the house is great.
