About the host
Hosted by Jessica Simmons
I have lived, in Sarasota for about 20 years and love the area. I purchased these historically significant buildings in 2016 and have lovingly restored them so that everyone can enjoy them, too!
Why they chose this property
The Reserve Retreat is a landmark property, steeped in Sarasota's rich art and cultural heritage. The three buildings were part of circus magnate Charles Ringling's estate before his Mansion was built. At various times, it was a boarding house and a circus performance venue. Today, it is a redeveloped gorgeous property with three buildings on a single parcel joined by a beautiful outdoor courtyard. It is across the street from the Sarasota Bay and just minutes to Downtown, and both Lido Key and Siesta Key beaches!
What makes this property unique
The Reserve Retreat has many enjoyable facets: restaurant for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner, beer/wine bar, coffee shop, small book store, and music venue.
