Évasion dans le jardin - Paradis ombragé au cœur de Sarasota

Imagine waking up to soft morning light filling the bedroom. The house is quiet, bright, and feels brand new. You brew a cup of coffee, walk to the back door, push it open, and step into your own private backyard oasis. Big shade trees stretch overhead. String lights hang above the patio from last night. The fire pit still smells faintly of wood smoke. You sit down under the covered patio, take your first sip, and realize this is the best decision you've made in a long time.
Welcome to The Backyard Breakaway. The name says it all.

The Backyard
This is the star of the show and it delivers.
A fully fenced backyard with huge shade trees that keep things cool even on the hottest Florida afternoons. Overhead string lighting that turns the whole space into something magical when the sun goes down. A covered patio for your morning coffee and your evening wind-down. A fire pit for late night conversations under the stars. A barbecue grill for cookouts with the crew. Outdoor games scattered around for the kids, the competitive adults, or both.
This isn't a little patio with two chairs. This is a real, full-sized, private outdoor living space that you'll use every single day of your stay. Most guests tell us they spend more time out here than inside, and once you see it, you'll understand why.
The fence means privacy. The trees mean shade. The lights mean ambiance. And the fire pit means you're not going anywhere tonight.

The Home
Two bedrooms, freshly remodeled, and designed to sleep six comfortably. The primary bedroom has a queen bed. The second bedroom has a queen and a bunk, making it perfect for families, friend groups, or couples traveling together who want their own space without booking two separate rentals.
The layout is open, airy, and bright. Natural light fills the living area, and everything feels clean and fresh. This is not a rental that's been around the block. It's been thoughtfully remodeled and it shows.
The kitchen is open to the living space with modern finishes, a big fridge, and everything you need to cook real meals. Whether you're making breakfast before a beach day or grilling steaks in the backyard for dinner, you're covered.
Laundry is accessible on site. High-speed WiFi throughout the house. TVs in the living area for movie nights or background noise while you plan tomorrow's adventure. Every detail has been thought through so your only job is to relax.

The Neighborhood
Five minutes to downtown Sarasota. All the best restaurants, cocktail bars, live music, and galleries are right there. Mattison's for outdoor dancing. The Gator Club for a night out in a historic building. Epicure for incredible food and ambiance. State Street for a perfectly made martini in a moody, romantic setting.
Ten minutes to the beach. Siesta Key, Lido Beach, and Coquina Beach are all a short drive away.
Ten minutes to the Dali Museum for one of the most jaw-dropping art experiences in the state.
Right across the street from a seafood restaurant and a Greek spot. Dinner is a two minute walk when you don't feel like driving. The gas station and a grocery store are also walking distance.
You're sitting right on Gillespie Park with tennis courts, a peaceful pond, docks, and a walking trail. Step out your door and you're already somewhere beautiful.
Minutes from the airport and the highway. Day trips to Anna Maria Island, St. Pete, and Tampa are easy from here.
Five to ten minutes from everything. But once you're in that backyard, you won't want to leave.

What Guests Love
The backyard. The fire pit. The string lights at night. The shade trees on a hot afternoon. The covered patio with morning coffee. The fact that six people can stay here and nobody feels squeezed. The bunk bed that makes the kids feel like they got their own room. Walking across the street for dinner. Gillespie Park right next door. Waking up in a freshly remodeled space that feels like it was built just for them.
