Overall, our stay at the Pink Flamingo was pleasant. The cleanliness of the home was exceptional. The location provided easy access to several stores and beach locations around Sarasota.
My family (6 adults and 2 teens) spent our Christmas vacation here. It was very comfortable and had everything we needed! All of the beach towels, chairs and coolers were really nice. Yvonne was very nice and communicative.
I booked the pink flamingo as part of a trip for my wife to see siesta keys beach for her graduation gift from grad school! We went with 4 of our close friend and son it was a great home and great host! The house is beautiful and conveniently located! Thanks for a great experience Yvonne will definitely book again!!!
This property was great. 20 to 30 minutes from nearly everywhere of interest in the area. Fantastic amenities, spacious, beautiful inside. The property manager went above and beyond to communicate with us. The home was outfitted with anything we could imagine needing.
. Would love to stay

Pink Flamingo
Property worked well for our group of 4 plus 2 more for several days. Beach towels and chairs a plus - large TV and plenty of seating another plus. Home is not 2700 sf as listed (2130 sf Zillow) beds and pillows are comfortable - plenty of dishes and glassware.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home. The floor plan would work well for 2 families actually, with a parents wing and a kids wing. As a single family of 4, we had way more room than we needed. The beds and linens were all very comfortable, and the entire property including the pool and patio were exceptionally clean. I loved that the laundry was inside the house, rather than in the garage. Also loved the huge primary bathroom with double vanities and a large walk-in shower. The neighborhood is also safe, quiet, and convenient to shopping and restaurants. Overall, this house had everything we could have asked for and everything worked as expected. We didn't have to reach out to the owner to ask for anything, and the pool was already heated when we arrived.
The host was very responsive to a couple of questions we had. The house was beautiful. We had 6 people staying there and it was large enough for everyone to have their own space too, especially with teen boys.
We enjoyed staying at this house. It had everything one needs for a vacation and more! Lots of towels, dishes, toys for the beach. The house is huge! We loved this house and will deofinately stay again!
Beautiful, spacious home in a pleasant neighborhood. Great location as it's not far from the highway as well as grocery stores. Yvonne was wonderful to work with and quick to answer any questions we had. We all enjoyed the screened in patio with pool! Would highly recommend staying here to others.
My first vacation I have been able to take my kids on and it exceeded every expectation I could have ever had. Not only was this home beautiful and in the perfect location but everything you could possibly need was included plus more! I would love to come here again and again 😊
Enjoyed our stay at the Pink Flamingo very much. We were there 40 days. The pool is very nice and we spent a lot of time in and around it. The house is well kept and the owner is always available if you need anything. We give this property and owner an A+

Family Vacation
We loved our time at the Pink Flamingo!! We had plenty of room for the 9 family members that stayed and guests to visit as well. The screened in pool area was our favorite hangout. The 2 patio tables made it perfect for playing games and eating our meals. This is a very quiet neighborhood. Highly recommended!
The property is amazing, lots of space! We enjoyed our stay. We had to contact the property owner a couple of times once for the screen door lock not working and then I accidentally broke the outside fan blades while skimming the pool, she had her maintenance person right on it. Wonderful to work with.

Awsome Home.
We loved it! It was spacious, lovely decor, clean and inviting. The owners provided everything we could have possibly needed for making meals and so much more. Plenty of beach gear such as beach towels, beach chairs, umbrellas, pool floats. Yvonne was gracious with our request to rent an extra day earlier to accommodate one of our children's schedule. She was wonderful. We Really enjoyed our stay.
The Pink Flamingo was a nice place for us to stay for the weekend. Everyone was comfortable and the pool was nice. Tho only negatives to report were the internet didn't work at all during our stay. This affected the TV as well. And the couple in the second master bedroom felt that the mattress could be replaced. The house was nicely furnished and Everyone said they enjoyed their stay.

Expectation and Reality totally different!
1. Picture of house online looks ALOT bigger.
2. Dust & Wash linens
3. Need new mattresses
Very disappointed with this rental choice.
The kitchen need to be cleaner especially coffee cups and silverware. Not enough wash cloths in the bathroom and towels. Table out by the pool needs to have a good cleaning.. I couldn't fine a tablecloth to put on it.
Overall it was good for us.
My family and I came for a week to celebrate New Year's Eve and a Birthday. We are very COVID conscious and looking for a home where we could stay and enjoy the Florida weather. The house was great for that, we enjoyed the pool, playing games that we had brought, and the subscriptions on the TV. There were only 4 of us although the house has room for more. However, there was not enough toilet paper, shampoo or conditioner for us. Yvonne was very responsive and was helpful with any questions that we had. Overall, we had a great stay and the property meet all of our needs.
