This could be such a great and enjoyable property if they would spend a dime and update it to this century. Had read the reviews and most are spot-on regarding the negative aspects so wasn't too surprised, but didn't expect it to be as bad. We only rented here as a last minute thing since our regular Sanibel spot was wrecked the year before. The Good: Centrally located and beach access is great. Parking for two in driveway, plus garage fits large SUV. Excellent BBQ grille with seating area. Management company easy to work with and took care of some issues right away. The Bad: Worn out furniture, sofas are slip- covered to cover up ripped leather sofas. Broken breakfast area chair leg. Missing lamp bulbs and the ones that worked were dim especially in the main living area. No blinds in master bedroom. Kitchen a joke, rusty utensils, no strainer, and broken can opener, among other things. No vacum cleaner to clean-up sand that will inevitably come into the property. A/C too small for size and number of rooms to be cooled especially the upper room. The Ugly: Ants everywhere because they don't trim the palm fronds that are touching the home all the way to the top. The kitchen faucet was leaking into the cabinet below so we had to call the management company to send someone over to fix it which they did the next day. Looks like it was an ongoing issue as the wood underneath was rotted. Mold in one of the baths. Won't be going back.

Great stay!

The main takeaway with this oceanfront beach house is the LOCATION & price. You are on the best beach in the USA. It’s great to have your own space and not deal with the public beach crowd. A short walk, or hop on the free trolley, to the shops & restaurants in the village. We’ve traveled all over and our favorite continental spot in the US is the Gulf Coast. An oceanfront beach house directly on Siesta Key at this price is a steal. Now, yes, the house needs some updating. Everything and I mean everything is worn out and dated. Unfortunately only one open air balcony on the top floor with two chairs. The others have been closed in. Tons of little ants which there were traps for. No issue for us, this is a beach house. The water pressure is low but most rentals have a restrictor on them. A little difficult to keep the 3rd floor cool but it wasn’t unbearable. There is enough space for 8 people to sleep and coexist comfortably. Parking is no issue which includes garage space for one and a driveway that could squeeze 2 average sized cars. Siesta Key is great to run or bike in the morning, grab some coffee/breakfast, then hit the beautiful beach, which is what we did most days. We had a great time on our vacation and will definitely stay here again!

It is amazing place to spend time with family, it feels for us like when we used to go grandma’s house on summer, specially because she lived by the beach. We had a good time.. we found a broken chair but we reported and they answer the email very quick. We recommend this place for family with kids who needs kitchen to prepare their meals, they have everything you need in a kitchen…

Good location with easy beach access. The property needs updating. Beds are poor. Furniture needs to be replaced. Some pots and pans were dirty. Plenty of room for our group of 7 but I expected more for the price. I've never had to pay for gas grill propane before.

The pictures were misleading! All the furniture needed updating, thank God the mattresses were good. Only 1 balcony to sit on, and you had to go to the top room. The kitchen is original 1991, so it’s not updated. My 89 year old mom got a true stair workout daily, so did we. But the location is beautiful, just expect college appearances. Stayed 2 weeks in February.

I would say this is a value-priced property. It was clean and it's a great location. We walked to the village a couple of times, also took advantage of the free trolley, and used the shuttle buses a couple of times as well. It's definitely worn down but not horrible. The shower curtains were moldy but management was able to get there in a couple of days to change them out for us. Could be a bit better equipped in the kitchen. Didn't have some of what we considered normal utensils and the pots/pans were in pretty rough shape. No screens in any of the windows. Internet was sufficient for streaming TV and remote work as well.
