I'm really pleased to have 'stumbled' onto this place and Robyn, the proprietress. I was looking…read morefor someone to paint furniture here in Sarasota and the man who used to do that for me had retired. So, while still in Illinois, I began searching Yelp for help. Wow! An answer to an uttered prayer came in the form of Robyn's response. Not only does she do great work painting furniture but her two stores are filled with interesting decor. There are several vendors associated with her who provide a wide variety of items for sale at very fair prices. All are unique. I love this place.

I love this store for many reasons:…read more the vibes are high. some of the first things I saw were religious based /Catholic items. followed by some trendy "witchy" things, and even a section for African spirituality. no one was left out. all things were positive and high-spirited, nothing sinister or cold. the staff is great! my 11-year-old son and I were warmly welcomed in... the kind of welcome that is not always extended to kids in crystal stores. he was even offered a free choice from the loose stone bin. the staff was kind; friendly & attentive, but not overbearing. the prices are fair. I got a little brass bowl, a loose, bulk type specimen, a nice sized specialty stone, and a very large display piece -- free candies, cute fortunes, and tiny freebie stones at the register -- for less than $250. I was happy with my purchase and my entire shopping experience. the selection is phenomenal. there are crystals at every price point from just a few dollars on up to the hundreds. a vast selection of tarot cards, statues, jewelry, incense... there is something for everyone. I bet no one walks out empty handed and I also bet no one regrets their purchase or ever feels like they were ripped off. we are tourists from California but we would visit Downtown Sarasota again, and if/when I do, this store would be among my first stops. five stars across the board.

The selection of clothing, jewelry, hair accessories and home goods is very eclectic. It seems they have a lot of Italian imported brands. The prices are high end and most clothing items were priced above $200. It was fun to look around, but this is shopping for a very specific kind of customer. Although I was just browsing, staff was lovely to me. I appreciated the little chocolate treats in bowls throughout the store.

5 stars for businesses are a rare thing for me but Florida Home and Patio deserve every star. We…read moreworked with Laurie and Joe in purchasing a whole bunch of things. We had been traveling for 13 years so had no furniture, to speak of. We special ordered a bedroom set with a California King bed, two night stands, a dresser and a chest of drawers plus 2 sets of lamps, and an outdoor wicker table with glass top and 4 chairs. We had to special order the California King sized bed because no one carried the one we wanted in that size. Florida Home and Patio were the only ones I called willing to do a special order. Their prices and quality are excellent plus they have really unique items with a Florida vibe. Service is excellent and with a smile! Even the delivery people were excellent and would do anything to make sure the furniture was set up how we liked. The owner even called to see to see if our special order was correct and the delivery was what we expected. Who does that anymore? I highly recommend Florida Home and Patio and I'm sure these will not be the last items we get there. We can't thank Laurie and Joe enough for the excellent job they did!!
