Casa Van Lopik(Jardin)- Tiki-Bar, Balcony, Tropical Patio, 250 steps to Beach and Village!
About this house rental
Casa Van Lopik (Jardin) - Large Bohemian with Tiki-Bar, Balcony, and Tropical Patio in Village just 250 steps Siesta's Top Beach! Introducing Casa Van Lopik, a Gertrude Rentals property! Leave the car behind and enjoy this large 3BR home, just steps from the best beaches, shopping, dining, and entertainment on Siesta Key. Out-door dining and grilling (shared), open floor plan perfect for bigger groups, surrounded by palms with king beds in both master bedrooms. Sure to provide a combination of fun and relaxation you can't get in other getaways. The Location - This will be “easy” just like vacations are supposed to be. It's just a one-block walk to all the best of the Siesta Village - fresh oysters, seafood, tropical drinks, ice cream, entertainment, and even gourmet donuts. The patio is shaded by mature palms with chaise loungers and dining tables. It's just right for enjoying a quiet cup of coffee, good book, cocktail(s), or an al-fresco meal. The beaches here are the widest on the island, have panoramic views of the gulf to the North-West-and-South, and are the top spot in North America for viewing sunsets. The water is shallow clear and calm with white quartz-sand tide-pools perfect for sleeping drinking or playing. You can swim or “often” wade to Sand Dollar Island, a naturally occurring white sand cay popular with dolphin's sand-dollars and “occasionally” giant-conch. This is the only spot on Siesta where you can go from the water to lunch or dinner and back to the sand without putting on your shirt and shoes. Amenities - Paddle boards kayaks and bicycles provided free of charge, but subject to availability. Because of shipping delays, if a group prior to arrival loses items we may have a restocking delay. Anything we are missing can be rented nearby. History - This was our second Siesta Key property and there is a lot of love in it. Casa Van Lopik was named for my father Capt. Allison Van-Lopik Jones. Honest, easygoing, resilient, enduring, strong, and always understated. He sailed the oceans for 30 years and always insisted Siesta Keys beaches were the most beautiful. Beach Gear - Correction for Air-b-n-b listings. We provide beach towels and beach chairs at every location, umbrellas and carts at most locations, and do not provide "snorkeling gear" at any locations. Sorry for the confusion. Snorkeling gear can be rented or purchased nearby. Support Post Booking - I understand vacation time is precious and I will make sure you get the most out of it. My number is the only contact information you need. My units are at the top attractions on the island. Cars are never required, but you will have private parking near the unit. Check-in any day of the week at any time using your private door-code. No requirement ever at checkout. Free early check-in when possible. Never hidden fees or solicitations. Every unit including this one is available for instant booking. When you book with me you get a fully accessible and knowledgeable owner/host and reliable advice from a G-approved local expert. I can recommend the best spot for fishing or fresh fish, Michigan or Ohio State games, romantic-dinners marriage-proposals or singles, Eco-tourism, family friendly activities, or safe ways to lose your kids when you need a break. For the less extroverted, every booking comes with an unabashed guidebook detailing the property, all my favorite things to do in the area, and never any advertisements or solicitations. This is the only rental offering of its kind on the key. Terms - Payments are 50% refundable when canceled at least 60 days before arrival. Payments are not refundable when canceled less than 60 days before arrival. Events or gatherings involving outside guests are only allowed with prior approval from the management.

We were very happy with our stay at Gertrude Rentals and would book with them again. More outstanding then the rental itself, is the service we received. Dan always messaged back in just a few minutes and he arranged to have a pack and play there when we checked in so we didn't have to bring our own. A couple days later I asked if he would have a bike trailer for our toddler and he arranged to have one dropped off just a few hours later, free of charge! Service was outstanding. Thanks for the good time!

Don't park in garage- we had appointment and late because neighbors parked blocking us in. Beds were very uncomfortable. Couch sleeping was better 😭. A positive note~The space was clean and decorated nicely.

From the moment we booked until we left, this was a great experience! I can’t say enough kind words about the property manager. Our kids had to take a redeye flight and I was worried about them landing and going all day on no sleep, so I reached out to the property manager and he made arrangements for us to get in early so they could rest. Checking in was a breeze, the condo is so fun and the location is perfect. We were far enough away from the crazy crowds on the main street but close enough to get there in a couple minute walk if we wanted to. The private patio was a great place to hang out after a day at the beach as well. We can’t wait to go back!

The house was great! It was clean and well stocked with everyday conveniences including 4 bikes, beach chairs, and wagons. The shared patio was lovely to sit out on day or night. Loved being within walking distance to the Village with lots of shops, bars, and restaurants. Dan was very responsive when we called about unlocking the garage door. Would definitely rent again.

The place was clean and well appointed. There were beach chairs, towels, and a wagon for toting things, including kids, to town and the beach. The outside space is shared, but there was no one in the other unit so we had it to ourselves. Perfect!

Great place for family reunion
The property was just as advertised. I even thought it was more charmingly decorated than the pictures. We had fun playing games around the dining table and then another group were playing games in the open air room off the downstairs patio. There were 15 in our group for game play and 5 of us stayed off site at son's house and 10 stayed in the house. The downstairs room housed 5 girls and the only boy stayed with his parents in their room upstairs. Also we played games around the coffee table. As you can tell, we like playing board games. We spent morning and evenings at the Siesta Pavillion Beach which was very kid friendly. Shallow water that the kids all loved. The beach that was closest to the rental was not as good for us as the Pavillion Beach so we did end up taking the car there. Our kids were ages 5-12. We liked the short walk downtown to the French Bakery for Croissants in the morning.
Dan was so responsive to every call and text. Couldn't have been a better host. My daughter broke a coffee carafe and they were right over with a replacement. Dan was always prompt with responding.
Our family had a wonderful time at the rental. We would highly recommend.

A bachelorette party of 8 slept pretty comfortably here. 5 min walk to beach access, less than 5 to the market/downtown area, but it is still in the quiet neighborhood. Dans place was very clean, cute and comfortable. Great ac, plenty of fans, our part of this duplex had the balcony that overlooked the patio area. So many TV channels if you have kids/need to veg out before you head out for the night. We really loved our stay. One thing I will say is the number of beds was misleading - there are the 2 king beds, then two queens as the bottom part of bunks and two doubles as the top part of the bunks, totaling to 6 beds. The house comes stacked with beach chairs, umbrellas, cooler, cart, bicycles and more. We highly recommend staying at Gertrude properties!!!

Reviewer Comments:
We were very impressed with the SK area and beaches! When it came to our stay at this rental...very disappointing. As you entered the rental it was VERY pungent smelling of mildew/mold on the stairs carpeted area. The main room lights were not working and the internet didn’t work the first day. The upstairs bathroom had mold/mildew in the upper corner of the ceiling. The decor was very lovely and beds were nice. However, I wouldn’t expect to pay the rate we did for such a subpar rental. The terrace outside we had a community relaxing area. It was lovely. Again very disappointing when we went outside to relax and there were workers outside drilling and hammering, before 8:30am. We were trying to relax with coffee and talk amongst ourselves but it was a battle with all the noise in our private area and men walking through. Unacceptable. I wouldn’t recommend staying at Casa Van Lopik.

Everything was great - Dan was super responsive. The location was perfect; close to the beach and town.The only thing I would say is we had 8 girls - I think that’s the max. Anything more would have been too crowded
