About this property

Siesta Key Bungalow - I - King-unit at a Waterfront with Pool, nestled in Mangroves!

Siesta Key Bungalow - I - King-unit at a Waterfront with Pool, nestled in Mangroves!

This Gertrude Rentals property is a Super-Sized King Courtyard unit at a Waterfront property, with heated Pool, nestled in Mangroves on Siesta Keys' exclusive Heron Lagoon. Quieter and less commercial, but with an abundance of recreational and leisure activities. A one of a kind Siesta Key rental. The Siesta Key Bungalows is now a Gertrude Rentals property.

Location - Set on Heron Lagoon, surrounded by mangroves, with wide open westerly exposure. Possibly the prettiest scenery on the island. Although home to Siesta's most famous, it hosts just two small complexes and is truly an escape from the resort super-highway. Driving biking or walking is a breeze with no stop signs or traffic lights, and plenty of relaxing bike paths and sidewalks. South 1 mile is Turtle Beach, Palmer Bird and Marine Preserve, and three of my favorite restaurants. North 2.5 miles is Siesta's Crescent Beach, Point of Rocks reef, the South Village, and seven of the top restaurants and bars on the island. The Siesta Key free trolley stops just outside our parking lot every 20 minutes between 8 AM and 12 PM. Free taxi services are also available nearly 24 hours a day. - 8212 Midnight Pass Rd, Siesta Key, FL 34242.

Activities - Secluded enough to do nothing and close enough to do everything. Sure to satisfy all your tropical expectations. On site activities - paddle boarding, sleeping in, dock fishing, lying in a hammock, heated swimming pool "shared", lounge chairs, bird watching, chameleon chasing, sometimes parakeets, kayaking, and alfresco dining and drinking straight from your kitchen. Nearby attractions - free taxi services and free trolley rides day or night, seven of worlds best beaches, oysters, scooter rentals, gourmet donuts, 99% quartz sand, boat rentals, daiquiris, ice cream, seafood Towers teaming with shrimp and Stone crab, biking, craft beer, huge breakfasts, eco-tours through mangrove tunnels, live music, and sleeping on the beach day or night. Closest restaurants – Turtles Bayfront, the Turtle Beach Tiki Bar, Ophelia's on the Bay, Big Water Seafood, The Toasted Mango, the Crescent Club, the Sneaky Tiki, Captain Curt's Beer Hall, the Orange Octopus, the Daiquiri Deck, and the Spearfish Grill. Closest Siesta Key Beaches – the Crescent Beaches, Turtle Beach, the public beach, and the Village Beaches. The Siesta Key free trolley stops just outside our parking lot every 20 minutes between 8 AM and 10 PM. Free taxi services are also available nearly 24 hours a day. - 8212 Midnight Pass Rd, Siesta Key, FL 34242.

Beach Gear - Correction for Air-b-n-b listings. We provide beach towels and beach chairs at every location, umbrellas and carts at most locations, and do not provide "snorkeling gear" at any locations. Sorry for the confusion. Snorkeling gear can be rented or purchased nearby.

Support Post Booking - I understand vacation time is precious and I will make sure you get the most out of it. My number is the only contact information you need. My units are at the top attractions on the island. Cars are never required, but you will have private parking near the unit. Check-in any day of the week at any time using your private door-code. No requirement ever at checkout. Free early check-in when possible. Never hidden fees or solicitations. Every unit including this one is available for instant booking.

Terms - Payments are 50% refundable when canceled at least 60 days before arrival. Payments are not refundable when canceled less than 60 days before arrival. Events or gatherings involving outside guests are only allowed with prior approval from the management. Guest agrees to hold the Property Manager and Owner harmless from any liability for injuries while on vacation. *If you prefer insured bookings, we recommend providers Generali and Rental Guardian for Trip-Protection coverage.

Events - Many of our properties are wonderful locations for gatherings. Gatherings involving third party vendors or visitors outside your occupancy limit "might" be permitted, but only with prior authorization.

Siesta Key Bungalow - April 2024
Staying at the Siesta Key Bungalow (Gertrude Rentals) was great, would definitely recommend. The entire Bungalow was nice, the check-in/check-out process was easy and we received plenty of notifications leading up to our stay. We didn't happen to use the pool, but it seemed nice, plenty of parking, there were also some grills placed outside the common areas for people to use, each unit had it's own beach chairs and umbrella, and there was also common laundry room for guests to use (unit had a few laundry pods & dryer sheets for use as well). All-in-all, great stay, would re-book again.

Great stay at Siesta Key!
We loved our stay at Siesta key bungalows! Our place was lovely and charming. It was such a great location, close enough to everything but quiet. It was very clean and had everything we needed. We will be back!

Three Night Stay
My husband and I finished a week long stay around south Florida with three nights in Siesta Key Bungalows. This location is great if you prefer a quieter, more private environment as opposed to right in the busy SK strip. The king bed was comfy and the bathroom was light and bright for getting ready. The kitchen is pretty minimally equipped with dishes and pans so don’t plan to go crazy with meal prep. And be sure to grab all your essentials (oil, seasoning, etc) at the grocery for your stay. We were right next to the heated pool and free laundry area, too. This location is 1.5 miles south of the Stickney Rd bridge (corner with Cptn Curt’s) and about 1 mile north of the Turtle Beach parking area. There is a trolley stop several properties south of the bungalows. And if you’re out later than the trolley runs there a couple other ride options that run for tips. Overall, a great less chaotic location for a couple stay with reasonable access to busier activities up in the SK village!

Amazing Stay
I absolutely loved my stay. The apartment was perfect for what I needed. Clean, pretty spacious, incredibly easy to get around with the free shuttles and the water behind the property was beautiful. The management was very responsive to my emails and requests.
