Vacation Rentals by Owner

Nice condo near #1 beach!

The place was very clean and nicely decorated. The location is walking distance to the lovely #1 rated public "Siesta Key Beach". It has a great beach feeling with murals painted on several of the walls, and everything was in working order, and as described in the listing. It has a nice screened in porch as well as an outdoor patio. It would have been nice to have a washer/dryer in the condo., but, there is a coin operated one down the hall that can be used if needed. The ground level entrance off the patio makes loading and unloading super easy and convenient.

Everything We Hoped It Would Be

My husband and I spent one week in the condo and felt very comfortable--just like home. You could tell the condo had been renovated recently, was very clean and nicely decorated. It was well equipped to meet all our needs, especially the kitchen since we opted to "eat in" most of our meals. The beds were very comfortable. Everything we were told would be available, was, right down to the beach chairs and towels. We enjoyed being on the first floor with an outside patio. My husband appreciated being able to throw a fishing line into the bay. The people at the Towers were very friendly and helpful to newcomers. The owner was very helpful and easy to work with throughout the process.

We just spent our vacation at this condo and had the most incredible relaxing time. We had 3 couples and this condo was perfect. Everything we could imagine was there for us. We couldn't have asked for anything more and the price was unbeatable. Ruth, the owner was very accomodating and helpful with everything from beginning to end. The entire property was clean and very well maintained. Security was present and we felt right at home. Can't wait to go back again!!! I've already referred several people for this unit. The pool was great, the beach fantastic and do try and catch the Sunday drum service if you visit. It was too cool.

I just had to write and tell you that our vacation at Harbor Towers in Siesta Key was GREAT!! very conveniently located, this condo has excellent comfort and is very tastefully decorated. The two suites with private bathrooms were perfect for a reunion with my daughter and her children. There was a king size bed and private ensuite bath on one side of the living room, dinning room and well equipt kitchen, and on the other side was another suite with two queen beds walk in closet and private bathroom . We were very pleased and all found that having an outside private lanai as well as a screened porch was another pleasureable surprise. We fished from the marina, beautiful!!!! Enjoyed the pool with its garden atmosphere. We Kayacked at Turtle Beach Lagoon. Having the kayacks delivered and picked up afterward was wonderful and the private secluded beach on that adventure was breathtaking. . The siesta beaches are all gorgeous but our favorite was at the most northern end of the key within walking distance to the village were the waves of fun keep on rolling with good food, music and drinks. We'll definitely return. Many thanks for sharing this condo Ruth and Angelo. Donna

GREAT stay!!! Didn't wanna leave!

First let me say that working with this owner was a joy! The unit was as described and then some! We found everything that we needed and the grounds were GORGEOUS! Siesta Key is one of our favorite destinations and with its proximity to the beach and business district, you cannot beat this place! The pool is great and never too crowded and the barBque area also comes in super handy for nice cookouts by the waterway. We were traveling with five children ages 14, 11, 5 and 3 and we had plenty of room, even when my mother in law came in from South Florida to stay with us for a couple of nights! We will DEFINITELY be back next year and for years to come! Thanks for everything!!!!

Beautiful condo!

Guest: Spring Break Vacationers (Auburn, Indiana)
Date of Stay: 03/21/11 Review Submitted: 04/04/11

We spent one 1 week in this condo and were very impressed. The beds were very comfortable and the house was very clean and decorated very nicely. Being on the bottom floor was very convenient and we also enjoyed sitting out by the bay in the mornings and evenings. There is a great area to grill and the tennis courts were a hit as well. The condo seemed to be more of a retirement community, however, everyone seemed to be friendly. The owner was very easy to work with and answered all of our questions in a timely manner. We would diffently stay here again.

Owner response:Jan, Feb and March tend to attract guests that are retired, because they come down for 2 to 3 months at a time. The rest of the year there is a mix of retired and families.

This unit was very clean and comfortable. Being a ground floor unit was very convenient. The beds were comfortable and the lay-out was great for two couples or family. The owner was very easy to deal with and was always available for questions. We will rent this unit again.

Very clean and nice and the 1st floor location is very convenient. The outdoor area with an additional screened in lanai is a nice feature. We stayed there in early November 2010.

Wonderful condo.. would love to go back again. Very close to everything. Pool was a good size and the wall to go fishing off of was the biggest hit for the kids. The condo had plenty of room and very well kept. Access from the condo directly to the parking lot was also a bonus! The owner was very nice to work with.

This was our first visit to Siesta Key, and we had a fabulous time!. We loved the condo; it was updated, clean and beautifully decorated. It has everything you need for a wonderful and comfortable stay. Everyone in the family loved it. The patios were great; the complex it extremely well kept, the pool is awesome. My boys enjoyed fishing every night out in the marina. It is close to everything, and the owner is wonderful. We had so much fun; we can’t wait to go back. It is a wonderful place to stay, Thank you for everything.

1st Family visit to Siesta Key

Guest: Tennis nuts (Charleston, SC)
Date of Stay: 05/01/10 Review Submitted: 08/15/10

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here with our 3 children. The beds were as comfortable as our own. The condo was well supplied and well maintained. The owner was available to answer questions and was even kind enough to check in on us during our stay. I have already recommended this property to family and friends. The beautiful beach is a short walk across the street, but we spent most of our days at the incredible tennis courts and pool at the condo. We hope to visit again soon! Maybe next time we'll venture out to some of the many attractions that are a short drive away.

This was our first visit to Siesta Key. We just loved the area and the condo. The condo was clean and decorated very nicely. It had everything we needed. It accommendated five people very well with two bedrooms which included two bathrooms. Having the condo on the first floor makes easy access to the unit. The condo complex it well maintained with a great pool. We enjoyed our first visit so much we have already reserved our week for next year.
