We had a wonderful stay! The location was perfect, and the property was exceptionally clean. The hosts were excellent with communication and always responded promptly. Highly recommend!
The location of this unit is perfect for the Siesta Key Beach and Village. The trolley stop and grocery store are just up the street. The unit was well appointed with linens and appliances. The pool was delightfully warm. The host was attentive. We had a nice stay. Kathleen
The apartment was great - perfect location, nice accommodations and the owners were easy to communicate with. Made a few suggested updates to the owners. Overall, great place! Highly recommend!
We had a wonderful time at this beautiful condominium complex. The condo was exceptionally clean and had everything we needed to enjoy a wonderful two weeks. Pool was super clean, and the location couldn’t get much better. We look forward to returning.
The apartment/condo was nice & clean. Basic necessities were provided. The A/C worked great. The bathroom door to the bedroom was a slider didn't fully close. You were able to hear everything from outside, but it seemed that everyone quieted down around 10:30 so it was terrible. The location was fantastic! Walking distance to everything. The price was right on for the location. I would stay again.

This was everything that we expected and we were very happy with our stay. The only thing I would say is that it was strange that the kitchen didn’t have a light. We had to use the light from the living room and bathroom. Other than that it was a great place. And the communication with Natty was great. I highly recommend it.

The apartment was spacious, clean. Only had two king pillows with pillowcases. Two more found in the closet wrapped in plastic, but no pillowcases or pillow protectors. Only one worn king size quilt for bed. Would have been nice to have extra pillows and blankets. Also some of the blinds need replaced-broken and unable to open. Otherwise great, would stay there again.
Description was off. No dishwasher or oven. Electric countertop cooktop took forever to cook things on. There was a countertop toaster oven. Do not recommend if needing to cook a lot. Grills on site need to be cleaned. Location was great. Close to restaurants, shops and beach, all within walking distance. Pool was clean and warm. Island apartment smelled a little musty in the bedroom closet and had door that went indoor downstairs that smelled musty as well. Sliding bathroom door needs some work. Older unit, just painted and made to look presentable.
