Rolling white-sand beaches and sparkling azure waters combine with a sophistication and charm to make Sarasota the gem of Florida's Gulf Coast. The endless array of activities and the exhilarating mixture of attractions, restaurants and shopping near the homes for rent will appeal to anyone. There is so much to do, like explore master works of art, catch a round of golf, stroll through world-class shops, canoe through unspoiled mangrove-lined waterways, dine on a bay-front cruise, or just dig your feet in the sand and bask in the glow of an evening Gulf sunset.
