Room Rentals
Nestled in the Arts District, our boutique hotel offers six unique guest rooms situated in three historically significant buildings (former home of the Ringling family) available for short- and long-term rentals. We also offer a Casita in the historic neighborhood of Sapphire Beach in Sarasota. Our guest room rentals are available on Airbnb, VRBO, and Booking.com. You may also book directly (and save platform fees) by calling our General Manager Sarah Simmons at 941-253-6003.
Comments from a guest (February 2025): "Jessica and Sarah were great hosts and very accommodating. They also operate an excellent cafe/ coffee house/wine bar on the property with a pleasant courtyard seating if you wish. The cafe breakfasts we had were wonderfully prepared and the place has a great positive vibe to start your day with. Close to downtown area and quick drive to Lido and Longboat key isles. Nice to support local hardworking owners vs a chain."
