About this property

Private Deck, Steps to Best Beaches and World Famous Siesta Village!

Siesta Key Dreams Penthouse Studio (325) - Beach, Shopping, Dining, Entertainment! 90 steps to Beach and Village!

This is the Siesta Dreams Studio apt, a Gertrude Rentals property! Leave the car behind! Perfectly located steps to the best beaches, shopping, dining, and entertainment on Siesta Key. Bright and Sunny 3rd Floor unit with Private Deck, Free parking, Al-fresco dining and grilling, but just 90 steps to the Access 7, Siesta's Top Beach. Sure to provide a combination of fun and relaxation you can't get in other getaways. *Queen bed!

The Location - This will be “easy” just like vacations are supposed to be. It's just a one-block walk to all the best of the Siesta Village - fresh oysters, seafood, tropical drinks, ice cream, entertainment, and even gourmet donuts. The beaches here are the widest on the island, have panoramic views of the gulf to the North-West-and-South, and are the top spot in North America for viewing sunsets. The water is shallow clear and calm with white quartz-sand tide-pools perfect for sleeping drinking or playing. You can swim or “often” wade to Sand Dollar Island, a naturally occurring white sand cay popular with dolphin's sand-dollars and “occasionally” giant-conch. This is the only spot on Siesta where you can go from the water to lunch or dinner and back to the sand without putting on your shirt and shoes.

Bear 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 my job is to make sure you get the most out of it. My number is the only contact information you need. My units are already 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/late check-in/check-out, whenever possible. Never hidden fees or solicitations of any kind. No paper contracts and easy booking. I'll phone you to touch base after booking and the week vacation starts. Five days before arrival I'll email instructions including your door-code address and guidebook. One day prior to arrival I'll send you a “Reminder” email with all the same information.

When you book with me you get a fully accessible and knowledgeable owner/host and reliable advice from a Google approved local expert. I can recommend the best spot for fishing or fresh fish, Michigan or Ohio State games, romantic-dinners marriage-proposals or singles, Eco-tourism, family friendly activities, or safe ways to lose your kids when you need a break. For the less extroverted, every booking comes with an unabashed guidebook detailing the property, all my favorite things to do in the area, and never any advertisements or solicitations. This is the only rental offering of its kind on the key.

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. Event fees will apply including location fees of between $1000 and $3000 and guest fees of $19 per person in excess of your occupancy limit. Out of consideration for all our travelers, hosting an event requires booking every unit at your property location.

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.

Great location
We were only able to stay at this place for one night because we had to cut our vacation short due to a family emergency. The property was very clean and exactly as advertised. The only downside is that there wasn’t any drawers to put clothes. There was a huge closet to hang things though so make sure you bring hangers. You are steps from the village and a short walk from the beach,

Just perfect!
The studio apartment was super clean, decorated so nicely and just right for our stay at Siesta Key! Everything we needed to eat some meals on site was very convenient, including a great gas grill!! Loved the cute balcony overlooking the beautiful palms. Easy walk to the beach or the village for relaxing, shopping or eating. Everything we needed for the beach was stored in a covered area underneath our place. Loved the convenience of a washer and dryer too! Comfortable bed too!! A+ rating and great host!!

Fantastic location close to the beach and to shopping and restaurants. Unit is small - it is an efficiency apt - but is nicely updated and clean. Communication with management company was very easy. It was nice to have free laundry facilities. Beach chairs, umbrella and wagon also provided.
