Resort-Style Lanai with Heated Pool/Spa & Luxe Outdoor Living Space

Magnolia House: Where Luxury Lives Under the Palms

Set in Sarasota’s coveted West of Trail neighborhood, Magnolia House is a private retreat for guests who seek elevated design, impeccable cleanliness, and gracious, anticipatory hospitality. As evening falls, the lanai glows beneath softly uplit palms, evoking the atmosphere of an exclusive Gulf Coast resort. Spend sun-filled days enjoying the heated pool and spa, with generous space for lounging and dining alfresco.

Inside, the home is thoughtfully appointed throughout. The chef’s kitchen is meticulously stocked with commercial-grade cookware, Lavazza coffee, multiple coffeemaker options, cocktail tools, and refined extras that make enjoyment effortless. The serene king suite is tucked into its own private wing, featuring a Tempur-Pedic bed and a spa-inspired ensuite designed for true relaxation.

Minutes from Siesta Key and Lido beaches, downtown Sarasota’s fine dining, and championship golf, Magnolia House offers resort-style serenity in a beautifully maintained, entirely private home.

Guests often say:
★ “Like something out of a magazine.”
★ “The lanai felt like a private resort.”
★ “Jen truly thought of everything.”

Great vacation home!

We loved our stay at the Magnolia House. The house was perfect for lounging by the pool and had everything we needed to spend a day at the beach. We will definitely be back!

Magnificent Magnolia House

Magnolia house was exactly what we were looking for. We always look for a place that has the “WOW” factor. From the moment you open the front door, you see why you chose this house. It was beautifully decorated, with artwork on most walls throughout the house. The house was updated, clean and very comfortable. Not to mention it’s in a great location for the area. But that lanai, was where we spent most of our time relaxing, in the pool and soaking in the hot-tub. The communication with the Owner and Host Jen was absolutely amazing. Jen was so helpful in recommending places of interest, things to do, restaurants and so much more. She stayed in contact with us every few days, just to see if there was something more she might be able to help with. This house is exceptional and so is the Owner and Host Jen.

Best Rental Ever

We have rented many vacation rentals in both Florida and Michigan and this is by far the best. The house itself is outstanding and the personal service Jen provides takes it over the top. From the excellent location, extra comfy beds, gorgeous pool and lanai, perfect pool float oh and did I say location? Whether you are a beach or pool person this house is for you. The house is just two blocks from Siesta Drive that takes you to the #1 beach in the world. There we absolutely no surprises when we got to the house. The video shows exactly what the house offers. Wish we didn't have to leave but we will be back! Thanks Jen!

Terrific for families

My wife and our three daughters loved this house. The house has everything you could possibly need - from pool toys to beach gear. Also, everything is labeled at the home and is very organized which we really appreciated. The access to downtown and other dinner spots is great. We look forward to coming back to this property again!

Magnolia House is the perfect place to stay. It’s close to great restaurants and the beach. The house is meticulously maintained and very clean. The garage is stocked with everything you need for a trip to the beach. The pool, hot tub and electronic game table were all a huge hit with the kids. Jen was amazing to work with and very responsive. This was our second stay and highly recommend Magnolia House.

I can’t say enough good things about this beautiful home, the amenities and the management. We loved the location, close to downtown and easy to get to beaches. Very nice neighborhood. The home itself is so comfortable, well decorated, well maintained and stocked with great amenities. Kitchen has everything anyone would need, beds were super comfortable, and the outdoor living space was such a treat. Pool/hot tub are pristine and outdoor kitchen/grill area was clean and great for having meals in. Everything about this house is well thought out and you can tell Jen is super intuitive about what guests need and want. Jen was also very responsive to any questions and made everything easy. Highly recommend and can’t wait to stay again!

Awesome house with great amenities!!

The house is so comfortable and lovely. I just adore all of Jen’s choices in artwork especially. Jen thinks of everything wants her guests to have a great time. Her guide book for the house and area is filled with awesome and unique ideas of places to go, eat, experience. Her instructions make things easy to understand. Location is great for getting everywhere. Jen could run an upscale unique hotel. You will not go wrong. Great stay in a place you can entertain yourself if a rainy day or head out to beaches and great shops and restaurants. Would absolutely book again! Great place Jen. Would definitely book again! Gail

We had a great stay at this gorgeous house. The entire house was beautiful, clean, comfortable to live in, organized and highly stocked with everything you need for inside, outside and the beach! The spa was so nice to relax in the evening after a fun day of adventures. The house was located as a quick drive to the beach and anything else you need within minutes. Jen was proactive in her communication with us, making everything easy and she had a great booklet full of information/recommendations for anything you needed.

What a beautiful home! We had a wonderful time here! The house was impeccably clean, well-appointed, and every detail seemed to be considered—from the art on the walls to the little pins above each doorframe to pop open the security locks if they accidentally got pushed. (We didn’t have to use but I imagine guests with children would be happy those were there!) Pool, spa and beach gear were perfect and elevated our stay from great to unforgettable! The host Jen was fabulous too. Thank you!

Wonderful vacation home

We stayed at the Magnolia house with our kids and grandsons for a week and had an amazing time. Jen’s home is absolutely gorgeous from the landscaping outside to the beautiful details inside. We loved that the home was stocked with many amenities such as laundry detergent, pool toys, beach gear, and an awesome game table. The kids loved the pool and we enjoyed the lanai (the ceiling fans, tables and the tv were all wonderful). We spent most of our time outside. Jen was a great host and very easy to communicate with. She always answered questions in a timely manner. We loved her vacation book with ideas of places to visit, places to eat, etc. We also loved the area. We were super close to the beaches and we were able to walk to get breakfast and to stores. We would definitely return and recommend this home.

Beautiful Florida Home

Our family had a wonderful stay at the Magnolia House. The home is large and comfortable, with all the amenities you need. Jen, the host was easy to communicate with and immediately addressed our questions. We had an 8 month baby with us and the high chair, portable crib and baby float made his stay a happy one too! The artwork in the house is gorgeous, if you like interior decor, you will be pleased. The pantry was well stocked and there were tons of extra appliances, such as a waffle maker, air fryer, etc. Her guidebook/binder is amazing. We tried the local marketplace down the street (Morton's). Their meat counter had fresh sea food and great looking steaks! They also have a bakery, deli, pizza counter there too. I found gluten free items in the bakery. Yea! The pool/hot tub was wonderful to hang out in. There are 2 very comfortable floating chairs. The hot tub was great for the evenings. We used the outdoor grill quite a few times too. Oh, I can't forget the gaming table. We all had fun playing Wheel of Fortune on it! You are not going to go wrong with this vrbo. Great house, great location, great host.

Selfishly I don't want to leave a good review, because I want to hog this property for myself. That being said, our stay was AMAZING! Jen thought of everything, and I mean EVERYTHING to ensure we were comfortable during our stay, including but not limited to: -lots of activities for kids (pool, hot tub, electronic game table which was a hit, bikes, beach toys and supplies, books in bedroom, games) -Very detailed binder highighting restaurants, things to do in Sarasota, things to do with kids, etc. -gas grill and all necessary cooking supplies, along with cookbooks to cook whatever your heart desires -beautiful spacious home with ceiling fans in every bedroom -personalized soaps and shampoos This is literally the best house we've ever stayed in and we will be back for sure. Jen went the extra mile to check in and make sure our stay was going well and that we had everything we needed. You won't be disappointed to stay here!

Fabulous

The Magnolia house was perfect. I agree with everything said in all the other reviews. It was an unforgettable stay. Clean, well stocked, beautifully decorated, comfortable beds. I could go on writing forever about how wonderful it was to stay here. My granddaughters loved the pool/hot tub and were in them morning, noon and night. The game table was also a big hit. The beach supplies and bikes were nice to have. Jen’s helpful binder is so well done. We referred to it often. My granddaughter’s are asking to go back already. I highly recommend this house and if we travel to Sarasota again we will go back. Jen is the best host ever. She went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. She was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Even after a devastating hurricane she was able to have her place ready for us. Wonderful house!! Wonderful host!!

Perfect Beach Home

We had an unforgettable stay at this perfect summer rental home! From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by the bright, airy ambiance and tasteful decor. The house was spotlessly clean and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The open-plan living area was fantastic for our family gatherings, and we loved the modern kitchen with all the appliances and utensils we could need. The bedrooms were spacious and well-appointed, providing a cool, restful haven after long days in the sun. The outdoor spaces were a highlight of our trip. The private pool was a hit with the kids, and we spent many evenings enjoying barbecues and relaxing on the patio. The lush garden and beautifully landscaped surroundings added to the overall charm of the property. The location was perfect—close to local attractions, restaurants, and shops, yet nestled in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood. We appreciated the easy access to the beach and enjoyed several days of sun, sand, and surf. The host was exceptional, providing detailed instructions and quick responses to any queries we had. Their hospitality truly made us feel welcome. In summary, this summer rental home exceeded our expectations in every way. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable summer escape. We can’t wait to come back next year!

Magnolia House - An amazing home, perfect family trip

This was an amazing trip. Magnolia House is immaculate with top notch decor and amenities. Our family of five spent hours outdoors by the pool and on the well kept lanai. We were just happy just chilling and enjoying the amazing home, making great memories. This home is so close to the beaches of Siesta Key, Lido Key and the downtown Sarasota area. On top of that the neighborhood is beyond charming with so many shops within walking distance. It was extremely easy and convenient to do anything we wanted to do in the area. Jen is a thoughtful and responsive host, and provides all the necessary touches, accessibility, and instructions for her guests to have a great time. I would book this home over and over. No detail is missed at Magnolia House! Read Jen's binder as soon as you walk in as it is so full of helpful information and suggestions for dining and activities. Everything in this home is labeled, organized and so well laid out you will feel right at home. The amenities are endless; pool toys, beach gear and toys, kitchen supplies and cooking tools beyond your imagination, beautifully decorated bedrooms and bathrooms, plenty of dining space, cleaning supplies, TV's everywhere, cutest kids bedroom, fans throughout, excellent HVAC. high speed Wifi, work spaces for those like me who work on vacation. Last but not least, excellent amenity - Infinity Gaming Table. So fun to gather the family for some board games in the evenings. I know the ratings are out of 5 stars but this is a 10 star property. Thank you!
