We spent every day at the beach, uber was more expensive than expected and transit only ran every hour or so. House was lovely and host was extremely helpful. Beds were VERY comfortable, and short walk to large grocery store.
The house is wonderful , Clean. Lots of space for enjoying with family and friends. The host was very friendly, he answers always quickly. It’s good located, near beaches and also markets areas.
We enjoyed our stay here. The location was great and had everything we needed. Dominick was helpful and easy to communicate with. There was one extra blanket that was pretty dirty when we went to use it, but other than that, the house was very clean and well equipped.
We had such a great stay here and would 100% recommend this home for a short- or long-term trip. It had everything we needed to either hang out at the house or spend all day at the beach — we really just had to bring our swimsuits and sunscreen.The house was clean, modern, and super comfortable. Management was always just a quick message away if we needed anything, which made everything really easy. We rented bikes and were able to ride into town, and the Breeze trolley just a block away was perfect. All of the recommendations for getting around, eating, and finding things to do were spot-on.We’re already hoping to come back next year — and honestly, we wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else!
We had a great time - very close to Siesta Key which was awesome. We had a wonderful dinner at the Summer House Restaurant - 5 stars! The place was clean and minimally furnished with all Ikea items, we went to Ikea and saw everything for sale that was in the house, LOL.
The only negative comments we have are that check out at 10am was way too early! And the cheap blinds for window coverings didn't block any of the sun - should get room darkening curtains for the rods that are already in place. And the towels were not very absorbent - kind of crispy and very small. Could use a robe hook in the bathrooms.
