Hi there. We had a bad experience with this place. They did not contact us to let us know address of the place ahead of time, I had to reach out. They then gave us the wrong address. We had cockroaches and bugs all over the kitchen and it was not clean. I then texted Chelly about this and she said someone would be out but no one did. The toilet was broken and she never sent someone out.

Will do again in future - daily if I could! Siesta Key is the place to be!

We just had a wonderful stay at the Sandcastle unit. Check in was very easy and communication with management was prompt. From the outside the house looks worn and the front yard could doesn’t have much “curb appeal” but the inside was nicely renovated and maintained, rooms were clean and tidy which is all that matters! Two of the three mattresses were comfortable and would recommend they look into replacing the third. The fourth room with the bunk was perfect for our little kids with little light bodies but would not be comfortable for an adult. There is actually a trundle bed under the bunk so our four older kids all slept in there happily. The kitchen was minimal, but when we discovered we were missing things we communicated to the property manager and they brought them quickly (like new cutting boards and a larger frying pan). The pool appears smaller at first glance but was plenty big for us to all enjoy, the kids loved it! It does get quite warm from being in the direct sun so just communicate with the manager for assistance with that. Having a working grill was wonderful, although it was small for our group it worked fine and we enjoyed grilled shrimp, chicken and burgers throughout our stay. We mostly ate dinners in the shaded area by the fire pit which although it was a common space we had it mostly to ourselves! There is even a basketball hoop that our kids played with. It was amazing being able to sit in the shady area and look out at the beach, so beautiful!

Exactly what we were looking for - steps from the beach & minutes from shops & restaurants. Very cute house & the pool was lovely.

Although this property is right on the beach everything about our stay at this house was miserable. The beds in every room were so uncomfortable we were forced to get blow up mattresses. The house is very out dated.. the description states flat screens in every room but they are over 10 year old 12in screens and one of the tvs didn’t even work. For the price it left us feeling taken advantage of. We paid x amount for the “cleaning service” yet we had to do all the cleaning ourselves. For the price we paid for the three days, we could’ve stayed at the Westin 20 minutes away, right on the beach, comfortable beds, and a clean room every day.

The location is outstanding. It is right on the beach and only a few minute walk to many shops and restaurants. The house was mostly perfect for our needs. The private pool and deck are awesome. The only issues we had were that the beds have plastic coverings on them which are noisy and uncomfortable when sleeping, and the check-in process wasn’t great. The day of the booking we hadn’t heard from anyone in months, and we had no check-in instructions. We eventually heard from the property manager who told us what we needed to do, but this could have been done proactively.

I genuinely hope this property never changes, it was absolutely the best. We were 2 families with kids ranging in age from 9-17, and it was exactly what we needed. The location is perfect in relation to the village and the beach, the house was a fantastic fit., communication with the manager & caretaker was flawless. Even "John the beach guy" came by to give some invading teens the boot! Honestly, I can't say enough good things about this property. It is the only area on the beach that has a small grove of trees with twinkle lights and a firepit common area where you could meet the other families. Even the other families staying nearby were the best!
The SK Village is walkable and more family friendly than we expected, especially during Spring Break.
I don't believe the website mentions this, but all the locations owned by SBR are right next to each other, so if you have multiple family members who want to travel together but need their own space, they could all book through this site and share a common firepit area. The house is adorable and clean. It even has a washer/dryer/dishwasher (bring your own detergent for the dishwasher, but laundry detergent is provided). The pool is private and heated and larger than we thought it would be. No need to bring sand toys /floaties/beach chairs, they're already there, along with a cart to take everything down to the beach with you.
This property has everything. They've thought of everything.

I wasn't sure exactly what to expect since I wasn't familiar at all with Siesta Key before our visit. For future visitors, make note that this home is right next to public beach access and 'the village'. While for some people this may be perfect, it may not be for others. We did experience a lot of loud sounds and some riff-raff type people due to being so close to the public area and party spots in the village. Also, there is construction on both sides of the property currently but it really didn't effect our stay much. On the flip side we were able to quickly walk to the shopping and restaurts every day which was nice since parking is hard to come by. Otherwise, the house was as advertised and clean. I do wish the kitchen supplies had been better but we got by. With the house sitting right on the beach you're really able to get the most of your vacation. We enjoyed the cool breeze at night and mixed between the pool and the beach all day which was ultimately what we were looking for. There is even an on site care taker for the properties who took our trash up and down, cleaned our pool area, and kept the property nice after a storm came through. That was unexpected and a nice bonus.

Our stay at the Sand Castle was only for one night however it was worth it since the location was prime! It was a short walk to the restaurants and shops. The check in process was easy and there was ample parking spaces. It was beachfront with several seating areas outdoors, such as the private patio with grill and a shared fire pit area. We would definitely stay here again!

Steps to the beach and just 3 blocks from restaurants and night life. House is a bit small, but you won’t spend much time in it anyway. Between the beach, the pool, the community lawn furniture under the trees and the fire pit, you’ll only be inside to eat and sleep. We would definitely come back.

Wow - this place doesn't get any better. The location is unbeatable, the home is updated and comfortable, the heated pool and direct access to the white sandy beaches.....it's perfection! The property managers were very responsive and accommodating. The beds were cozy, plenty of towels, huge heated pool, plenty of outdoor seating, grill ready to go, beautiful tropical outdoor area, the beaches can't be beat, the quaint town is a short walk and we enjoyed the restaurants, grabbing donuts, coffee and ice cream while we were there. Everything you could want is here at this home. We hope to be back soon!

Great location!!! One of the most beautiful beaches in the world right in your backyard. We really enjoyed making S’mores with the kids in the fire pit as you can hear the waves crashing on the beach with a beautiful starry night above. The 3 bedrooms were very comfortable for 6 adults. The air conditioner was great at keeping those room nice & cold but the back game room that had the bunk beds and pullout couch was really warm for sleeping but if you pointed the standing fans directly on you was tolerable. But we would definitely stay here again!
