The property was perfect for our family vacation! Close enough to walk or bike to downtown area. The kitchen was so well stocked! The backyard area was private and had games and comfortable spots to lounge. There were coolers and beach toys, plenty of towels. We loved it!

Unbelievable stay! Owner was so responsive to our questions. There was everything we could need at this house. Definitely will stay again if we head back to Siesta Kry! Highly recommend.
This house is so cozy! It was perfect for our girl’s trip and was stacked with all the amenities we needed- several coolers, ice packs in the freezer, empty water bottles to fill for the beach and beach bags! Jenni was super responsive when needed. We look forward to coming back again!

Thank you so much. I’m so happy that you enjoyed your stay and had a great girls trip. Come back and see us again!!!
My family and I had a wonderful stay! The house was exactly as described and more! Excellent location to all things in Siesta Key. Jennifer was fantastic and prompt with corresponding.
Hands down the best place we have rented!! Communication with Jenni and Richie was amazing. Truely anything you need is there or they will get it for you. The house is adorable and comfortable. We used all the spaces. The bikes were used daily and all the beach toys you need are available to use. Thank you so much. We will be back!!
We loved our stay in this beach home, the house is beautiful and the owner really goes above and beyond to provide guests with perks you normally find in a hotel room. Very close to the village and beach. Will want to visit again!

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a lovely review. We do hope you will stay with us again sometime!
Beautiful property with something for every age group! Quick to respond to any needs or questions and what seemed to be the Mayor of SK and maintenance was a pleasure to chat with. And make sure we had everything and more.
This home was perfect for our family of 4. Very quiet and comfortable with plenty of space for all. Biking distance to town for restaurants and the small grocery. A short drive to the beach. We enjoyed our stay and will book here again the next chance we visit Siesta Key.
Lovely decorated in Modern farmhouse style and welcomes you from the first step. Every detail well thought out for guest to enjoy right on site at the house and every direction from there. Perfect location! Privacy but seconds away from everything! Customer service outstanding. If you need it, you will get it!
This was our favorite VRBO we have stayed at EVER. We travel frequently as a family and I can not overemphasize enough how clean, beautiful, serene and picturesque this beach bungalow is. The hosts checked in multiple times during our stay but there was not one detail left unturned. The location is amazing, everything you would need for a beach vacation is provided and more, our entire stay was just dreamy. Thank you SO much for such a memorable trip!

The perfect vibe and getaway that we needed - house close to legendary Siesta Key beach and village. Home was in pristine shape despite the hurricanes that blew through only months ago. Still some cleanup needed in town and neighboring St Armand’s Circle, but no fault of the homeowner! Would come back for sure.
This place is fantastic. It’s even better than the pictures and descriptions depict. It’s set back in a lovely, quiet neighborhood yet super close to the village. We spent a lot of time relaxing on the screened-in porch and really loved the master suite being upstairs…a little getaway within our getaway. This host has thought of everything. We will definitely book again:)

Laura thank you so much for leaving such a kind review. We look forward to welcoming you back!
This was one of the nicest VRBO houses I have stayed in. High end finishes thorough out the home. The house was completely stocked with anything you could have needed. From bikes to beach chairs, umbrellas and beach toys. 3-minute bike ride to the beach and town of Siesta Key. Jenni was very welcoming and easy to deal with. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone wanting to visit Siesta Key!

I must say, the pictures do not do it enough justice. Great place to stay. Having the bikes available for everyone was fantastic. Beach and village close by. At the same time, the host really goes an extra mile. Super accommodating especially in the midst of a strom! We recommend this place highly. All around 5 stars.
We loved the house. It’s beautiful and was the perfect amount of space for us. We were a group of 4 adults and 2 children, aged 2 and 4. We enjoyed time on the screened in porch and in the hot tub. It’s a perfect location. You can bike easily to restaurants, bars, and multiple beach access points. We rented a golf cart for the week to get around and that made it super convenient and barely left with the cars to go anywhere. We had such a great time and plan to rent this again next year. Also, the beds were extremely comfortable.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a nice review. We look forward to welcoming you and your family back.
We booked this property last minute as our original vacation plans blew up on us. Jenny was very quick to respond and accommodating. The house was beautiful and a perfect space for our family of 4. There were plenty of bikes so riding into the village or to the beach was extremely easy. There is also a free beach shuttle called "The Frog" that came to pick us up whenever we called. There's a hot tub in the backyard as well as a hammock and corn hole. Great property, we will definitely book again when we return to Siesta!

This was our first time visiting Siesta Key and our family would give this property a 10 out of 10! Great location, walking distance to the Village, you can bike everywhere (even to the gorgeous beaches) the private dock was perfect for fishing, and we even saw a manatee! The design is impeccable, you’ll feel like you’re living in an HGTV episode. Jenni was such a gracious host and very responsive to any questions we had. You will not find another vacation rental as well stocked as this house...they truly have thought of everything and have gone above and beyond to make their rental feel like home. We clearly enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to go back next year!

Thank you so much for such a kind review I truly hope you come back to stay with us again!
This vacation rental has all of the amenities for a relaxing beach vacation. The owner has provided beach towels, chairs, coolers, and paddle ball. We parked our rental car upon arrival and enjoyed walking to the beach and all of the cute restaurants and shops in Siesta Key Village. There are also four bikes with locks if you would like to ride around the neighborhood. The kitchen is well appointed and the house is even more charming in person. The owner has a great eye/talent for design. My family enjoyed the hot tub in the backyard and paddleboarding off of the dock on the canal. I would encourage others to rent this property. We will definitely return.
