We rented the Honeymoon Suite for a weekend away and it was the perfect stay! It was very clean and had a relaxed atmosphere. The beach was two blocks away and you could see a bit of the beach and waves from the upstairs balcony. Virginia has a binder full of information that is very helpful to visitors. It was located a walkable distance to Siesta Key Village where we got ice cream on Friday night after walking along the beach. We had a private swim in the pool Saturday morning before heading to the beach again. Loved the cute kitchen! It had all we needed for breakfast on the balcony! The two bathrooms were very clean and had enough essentials for the two of us. The bed was very comfy. After leaving Sunday morning, we checked out the farmer's market and got breakfast in the village. If you are looking for a place for two to stay in Siesta Key, book this one! Thank you, Virginia, for a lovely stay!

Good vacation spot

Nice location so close to the beach! We loved the pool, grills and access to the chairs and umbrella! 10am seems a little too early for checkout and the water in the showers never really got hot-just lukewarm.
Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2017
Response from VrboOwner on 3 Apr, 2020
Dear John & Cynthia, Thank you for your review. In your text messages to me you stated that you are "LOVING" the Honeymoon Suite and that "ALL IS AWESOME". After I read your review I checked on the water temperature of each shower in the Honeymoon suite and both of them had HOT water, but you need to let it run for about 1-2 minutes before it gets hot. Also, you may have had the dishwasher running, or a load of laundry at that time, or another person before you had taken a long shower and the water heater needed to reheat water. Your complaint about the check-out time: We work with a cleaning company who needs to start at 10:00 AM, but promises to be done with all our 16 apartments no later than 4:00 PM (often they are done earlier, so new arriving guest can check-in earlier too), and if they cannot start cleaning on time the cleaning staff moves on to other vacation rentals on the island and will not come back the same day. Now we all have "instant booking" online, and imagine we get a reservation in last minute, than the new guests will arrive to a dirty apartment. I explained all of that to you in detail, but believe it or not, I know for fact that most small accommodations on Siesta Key have 10:00 AM as a check out time. I have managed and owned my rentals for 20 years and I am always trying to please my costumers, but I do not clean my apartments, and so I have to work with the cleaning company's rules. You did not mention that I had offered you an "early check-in (8:00 AM)" if you wanted it for NO extra charge because the apartment had been cleaned the day before your arrival. I think that is noteworthy too. Sorry, but I take all reviews to my heart and would like guests to know that it is not an easy job to please each guest, but I ALWAYS try. It is easy to discredit and write negative reviews that can hurt a business. Please think about this when writing your next review and remarks that could have been discussed with the manager / owner / me. Instead of 5 starts you gave me 4 for reasons that weren't really "REASONS." I make a living with renting my apartments and not getting an excellent review may cost me potential costumers. However, thank you for having stayed at my resort and that you enjoyed your stay. Best, Virginia
