"Stay far far away!"

2.0

The cottage we rented #6 was cockroach infested, linens were stained with blood, the whole unit smelled of mold and mildew. The pool was covered in leaves. Customer service non existent. The host Joe charged full payment for a rental that he then cancelled, because we left the unit after being there a few hours due to the unsanitary condition of the unit. Don’t be fooled by the photos, the place is a dump!

"Small, Old Florida and Private"

8.0

We loved staying at Flip Flop Cottages. We have put lots of our family visitors there as well. It a small property right on the lagoon and offers paddles boards, kayaks, bicycles as part of your stay for no extra charge. All of the cottages big and small have been renovated and really clean. The pool is small but very cozy. Its in the quiet area of Siesta Key and the trolley goes by every 20 minutes so no need to drive anywhere. It goes from the north end of SK to the south end. Flip Flop is very family oriented and our grandkids loved it.

"Nice place right on the water"

8.0

There are a number of cottages. We rented the large 3 bedroom right on the water. It was perfect for a bunch of golfers. It was clean, quiet, and comfortable. One of the bedrooms never gets dark because of the security lights never go off.

"set appart and private area from mainstream"

10.0

we stayed in room #6 the honeymoon and our sister stayed in #2 the rooms are very neet and well decorated. we had a window unit which kept the room very cool. there is no room service but you can catch her on occasion and trade out towels and toiletries. there is a washer and dryer on site. we stayed 5 days and loved being minutes from siesta key beach, and turtle beach you are rite in the middle between them. the rooms look newly remodeled and up to date décor. its not a 5 star hotel but I give it 5 stars for what it is we will be going back next year to get the heron house. we also have taken 4k footage and drone 4k we will be adding to youtube

"Close to beach"

6.0

The room was clean but even in early spring room was a bit stuffy. The ac is in main room so hard to get cool air in bed room. Wonder if in heat of summer bedroom would be sleepable. Not deluxe accommodations but not a dump.

"Quiet side of the Island, "

8.0

We found the flipflop to be quaint, bright ,accommodating, if you are looking to walk to a beach however you must be willing to walk, 2.5 miles either way. The owner offers free bicycle rental, kayaking and 2 launches with a beautiful lagoon to linger over.

"Nice accommodations and gracious host"

10.0

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Flip Flop Cottages in Siesta Key. My cottage was clean and nicely updated. The location was great being away from the congested north end of the island (but still just a short drive for beach going or restaurants. Richard was very friendly and welcoming when I checked in. He was busy renovating one of the cottages while I was there but always had the time to stop and chat. He offered several great suggestions for things to do and places to eat. Last but not least, your pet is not just accepted at the Flip Flop Cottages but truly welcome !

"Ok location/cottage, but bad management. "

4.0

The good: Location. Reasonable distance from beach for price. (1 mile from Turtle beach, 3 miles from Siesta Key beach). Also, the cottages are located on intercostal and provide kayaks, canoes, paddle boards for free use. Gear is a little run down, but they are free! Room rates were below average. The bad: I stayed in Captiva room. The A/C is a single ceiling unit that only supplies cold air to the main living room. Expect the sleeping area to be a good 4-6 degrees above set temperature depending on the outside temperature. We had to sleep on the couch the last night it was so hot in the bedroom. Also that last night, our AC went out on us late in the evening while sleeping. We woke up at 2am due to the high heat. We called the emergency number given to us due to no one being in the office. The owner lived close by so he was able to come over. The owner says that the units are fairly new, but he also mentioned that this has happened before. He said that we can't put the AC lower than 72, or system will overheat and shut off. 72 would not be so bad, but as mentioned before it will not be 72 in bedroom. It was likely 76-77 in the bedroom when set at 72. We finally got AC back around 4am. The owner did not offer any refund/discount for major inconvenience, but did offer us a 2 hr. later check out. It was apparent that they would not offer any reasonable discount for current stay no matter the circumstances or issue. Some other minor stuff like bed considerably sinks in the middle, low water pressure in shower, out of date appliances but all was not surprising given the below average price to stay. Bottom line, flip flop cottages was not considerably bad, but do not expect a high level of customer service. I believe management will do what they can to correct an issue, but will not do anything at the expense of losing money. I have read reviews that were highly favorable, but also read some similar to mine. So it is possible to have a good experience, but hopefully your luck is better than mine.
