Property manager / owner is a fantastic host the house was 10/10 spotless upon arrival even with it being love bug season the house was still amazingly clean communication with the host was flawless so easy to get in contact with and the property and area around is amazing while may not be water front it’s the best for the price point for sure! So beyond pet friendly my dogs loved the walk around the block and having the wide open concept in the house! I will definitely return again

Amazing Stay

We LOVED our stay at Siesta Keys! The room was exactly as described and in a perfect location. This spot was very family friendly and less crowded than other locations. The access to the beach was amazing and the free transportation stop was a short walk away.

The room truly was 8 steps to the beach! The check in process was so easy. Daniel was great and communicated every step of the way. I never had to wait for a response to any questions I had as Daniel was very responsive. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed. I recommend booking Gertrude's Siesta!

The Poor Boy was in a perfect location right next to the public beach access. It was a quick walk to the downtown area. The kitchen had all the amenities needed and then some. There was plenty of space and a nice outdoor sitting area! Would definitely stay here again!

Such a cute bungalow just a few yards from the beach. Cozy, well equipped, location, location, location!!! While charmingly dated, only change would be an update of bathroom floor but overall, clean and comfy!
