About this property

The Raya House

Mid-century modern, 3 bedroom 2 bath pool home within minutes of Siesta Key Beach and Turtle Beach; (closest Siesta beach access is 2.4 miles away. Main Siesta Beach access is 4.2 miles away) easy access to downtown. This house was completely renovated in 2017, and the pool and patio area was resurfaced in 2020. Open concept, split floor plan, WiFi, screen enclosed pool and patio area, propane grill, large driveway for off-street parking, fenced corner lot in quiet neighborhood. Walking distance to delicious frozen custard! Great for families.
Though there is no extra fee for heating the pool, we do ask that you request it in advance as it takes a couple of days for pool to reach warmer temperatures when the weather is cool.

Best Vrbo!
This has to be one of the best properties Vrbo has to offer. The hosts were great and the property was clean and welcoming. We loved that it’s so conveniently located just a couple of miles from the beach.

Beyond our expectations
We had a wonderful stay at this property. It surpassed our expectations and we enjoyed it so much that we spent more time at the house than away from it. With a 2 year old the pool was a huge hit. The extra child amenities also made this stay super easy away from home. I’d highly recommend this place to any and all looking for a home away from home!

Most comfortable VRBO stay yet!
We were so happy with the entire stay. The location was amazing, the pool is beautiful, the kids enjoyed many mornings on the hammock. Kitchen was well stocked and everything was super clean. Reclining chairs in the living room were super relaxing after long hot days of mini golf, on the beach, or out back at the pool. 10/10, will book for future trips!

Great location and size of house.
You are close enough to the beach but don’t have to pay beach prices! Communication with owners was excellent. Would definitely stay here again.
