Siesta Key Beach House

Location is the best feature of this property. The staff is friendly and easy to communicate with. The pool is great and perfect for a family, just in front of one of the rooms.

Here’s an improved version of your review with better clarity and flow: Review: The cleanliness of the property left much to be desired, showing a clear lack of attention and proper care. Despite being charged a cleaning fee, guests are still required to wash the towels before departure—or face a fine—which feels unreasonable. Additionally, we discovered an open, leftover food can in a drawer that had clearly been there for a long time, as it was rotten and attracted flies. The absence of basic essentials like shampoo and cleaning supplies further reinforces the impression that this property lacks genuine care for guest comfort.

The actual layout was fine. It was spacious. The pool was heated and well kept. The location was perfect.

There were so many maintenance issues like screens being off the sliding doors, broken drawers in the dresser, hooks broken off in the bathroom, broken vacuum cleaner, etc. The towels were obviously cast offs and nothing matched and very gray. No shelving in the showers to set shampoo, etc. No garbage bags were provided.

Loved the tropical setting and close beach and trolley access. The rental was a great value and the hostess was easy to communicate with. The house has a perfect layout for our group. The washer and dryer were a huge plus.

The guest bathroom shower didn't drain properly. We had to keep plunging it. The sleeper sofa could be more comfortable. The pool was too cool to enjoy.

The place was amazing for family stays (3 bedrooms, with huge living room, fully stocked kitchen utensils, dishwasher, microwave, washer and dryer). Lovely private lush pool area. 7 min walk to beach.

Nice, private and quiet area.

Perfect for me . I love it.

Walk to the beach and to get to the ocean is way too long if you have difficulty to walk. We thought the "private beach" was right there. The sofa bed mattress needs to be replaced.

This is my first time ever writing a bad review , however it is my duty letting others know how Booking.com and the management team handled this situation. Unfortunately we scheduled a trip to Sarasota without knowing there will be a storm heading our way. By the time we found out we reached out to Booking.com as well as the management team to try to reschedule our trip, knowing that the projected path of the storm included the whole west coast. The answer we first got was that there was nothing going on in the area, so , basically we were not able to change dates. We, at this point, were not looking for a refund but the possibility of keeping the reservation for a different time, but since Sarasota was not on the direct path they were not allowed us to that courtesy. Unfortunately we made it to the property without knowing what was happening there, Booking.com or the management team never reached out to inform us that the county had shut off running water even though this information was released the previous day, was on TV, social media and spread to everyone that owns or managed a property in the affected areas. We got stuck in a property with no running water, no access out of the island just because Booking.com and the property management team never forwarded this life saving information. We could have found a different place to stay with the basic services if Booking or the team would have been responsible but they choose not to. Maintenance on the property didn't meet our expectations either and a few gallons of water would have made a huge difference. Dealing with booking.com and their team, especially Gabriella has been our worst experience ever with a short rental company .We will never use it again.
