The Location - This will be “easy” just like vacations are supposed to be. Located on Siesta Keys highly coveted Beach Road, you exit the unit and immediately see wide open southerly exposure and a beach view. It's 13 steps from the yard to Beach Access 10, possibly the islands best beach today. It's a one-minute trolley ride or a two-minute bike ride to the Siesta Village for fresh oysters, seafood, tropical drinks, ice cream, entertainment, and even gourmet donuts.

The beaches here have panoramic views of the gulf with wide open exposure to the North-West-and-South. This 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 naturally occurring white sand cays popular with dolphin's sand-dollars and “occasionally” giant-conch. This is the 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. ​​​​​​​Sure to provide a combination of fun and relaxation you can't get in other getaways. *For larger groups, ask about additional space at this location.

History – There's no public parking in this area so, even though the beach is gorgeous, it's a little more private. When I was a kid growing up on Siesta Key, this beach access was called “Palm Island” and named after the island of the same name right at the end of the street. The island has a small bridge going to it and is literally a “heart shaped” island within the island of Siesta Key. When I was younger this was our lovers lane.

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 is available for instant booking.

When you book with me you get a fully accessible and knowledgeable owner/host and reliable advice from an 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.

Terms - Pets are welcome with a one-time payment of a $190 pet fee. 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. Guest agrees to hold the Property Manager and Owner harmless from any liability for injuries while on vacation. *If you prefer insured bookings, we recommend providers Generali and Rental Guardian for Trip-Protection coverage.

Events - only with prior approval.

Good property
We had a great stay at this property, however, it is more of an “apartment-like” property. Great location though, very clean and access to property managers were great. Overall wonderful trip :)

Very nice location
The location was absolutely perfect, and we really appreciated the beach amenities we had access to (chairs, carts, umbrellas, kayak, bikes, etc). We do wish the listing was a bit more clear about the shared areas, we would have loved to have used them more but they were very very hot, no AC. Minimal issues were quickly addressed by host. Overall had a wonderful stay.

Great location!
Our family rented the 3-bedroom apartment on the second floor. Property owner was friendly and attentive to answer questions. The apartment was fresh and clean with plenty of linens, dishes, and beach gear. The kitchen had the basics and could use a few plastic items to accommodate the microwave usage and children. Access to the beach was right across the street and the beautiful white sand beach was wide open without crowds. Overall, we loved the location and apartment. Would suggest a thorough cleaning of the entrance floors, stairs, and downstairs rooms to give better first impressions when entering the building because the apartment was well done. Great price for a great space.

Anniversary trip
Any other VRBO we have used through a rental agency has been a poor experience. Dan and Gertrude Rentals could not have been more gracious, caring, responsive and/or informative. They are not about the rental revenue, as they sincerely care about your experience and being a positive part of your stay. Cannot thank or commend him/them enough. Because of this experience, our first to Siesta Key, we will be back next year.

The perfect beach
The location of this property can’t be beat. it’s far enough away from the busy condo developments that the beach feels private and close enough to walk to the village. The public beach access is across the street and the actual walk to the beach is a little long, but it’s to be expected to enjoy the powdery sand and warm waters of siesta. beach carts are provided, so it’s no big deal: even if you were ocean front, you’d have the same distance to walk.

Visit from Kansas
We loved our stay in Siesta Key. The accommodations worked great for our family and the location was perfect (right across the street from the beach access path). It was so nice to have beach towels provided along with access to beach chairs, umbrellas, and a wagon. Bicycles were also available but we did not have time to use them. My only suggestion would be to provide a scrubbing sponge and additional kitchen towels. We would definitely consider renting here again!

A very clean and beautiful apartment with all the amenities you could want. A comfortable bed and a nice bathroom. Dan is an great host and is always there for you when you need him. We had a wonderful stay! There’s plenty of room for everyone, and the location is great. You can walk to the beach, or take a trolley out to the village of Siesta Key, where there are plenty of restaurants and shopping options.

Tennis Weekend
We selected this location for its proximity to the beach as our primary reason. It was literally across from the beach access park (#10). The facility was in very clean order when we checked in and the accommodations were exactly as advertised. In fact, there was some surprises like bikes and paddleboards that were not advertised. While we’rent able to use them, that was a nice surprise. House also has beach chairs and wagons to move stuff to / from beach. A huge plus !! The tennis courts were literally down the street (short golf cart ride) away. We used those every morning. The beach was AWESOME. There was news of red tide, but we didn’t encounter any of it. The water was nice and warm and the sand was amazing Dan (our host) was great with answering any questions both before and during our stay. Very prompt and helpful. We will be returning next year !!
