Whatever you have planned to feed the tummies of the ones you love, this contemporary and modern kitchen is an absolute Chef's dream.

Completely redesigned, this kitchen has a stunning waterfall island where the kids can sit at the stools to slurp their cereal, large top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, an ice maker, wine cooler (of course!), and a fully stocked coffee bar to get your engine revving in the morning.

We've thought of everything, so you don't have to.

Dining Room

Located between the open concept kitchen and living area is a large formal coastal-inspired dining table with place settings and seating for everyone to enjoy a sit-down meal comfortably.

Outdoor Dining

If dining alfresco is more your thing, and you want to make the most of the gorgeous weather here in Sarasota, there's also a modern dining area for your use in the large enclosed sunroom close to the propane BBQ overlooking the pool. It's ideal for pool days when you want to grab a bite to eat but don't want to come indoors for a meal or a snack in your wet bathing suit.

Hi! We're your hosts, Paula & Roberto.

We live in New Jersey with our two kids and a dog that all share a mutual passion for traveling and experiencing new adventures. That passion is what brought us to Sarasota.

During our visit here, we fell in love with the beaches, the neighborhood, the restaurants, and the attractions. That led us to search for the perfect tropical escape where we could put down some roots so we could come back and visit. Inspired by "Arlington" take on sustainability, we decorated this home in the most sustainable way possible, using natural colors and instilling elements that reflect the beauty of the Sarasota beaches in our design choices.

We are happy to be able to offer Villa Palma for you to make memories in as well. Our committment is to provide each guest with the highest quality of communication and service and provide knowledgeable guidance for all the places to visit and things to do to enrich your experience.

Let us know if there is anything we can do to make your stay perfect.

Enjoy white sand beaches, crystal clear water, laid back lifestyle and spectacular sunsets in Sarasota!

An incredible 5-star stay! Can't say enough great things about Paula and Roberto's home - amazing location, super quiet and peaceful, beautiful outdoor spaces to relax and enjoy, and great amenities. The hosts were extremely responsive and even proactive in their messaging to ensure we had everything we needed. The home is beautifully appointed with tons of space for a group. We loved that water and snacks were provided. We had everything we needed to create a wonderful girls getaway and will definitely return!
