I recently took my 15 yr old daughter and 3 of her friends to Siesta Key for Spring Break and we stayed at Tim's place. it was AMAZING. Tim is an A host who took great care of us while we were down there--answering all questions I had regarding our stay. We enjoyed the spaciousness of the house (split bedroom design), the fully stocked kitchen (we hosted a brunch for Easter and it had everything we need to serve food/beverages), the outdoor areas (screened in porch with lots of games and grill), and the quiet street. The game room was perfect for the girls to hang out and the pool/hot tub was perfect for relaxing and privacy. The beach is a short walk and I learned to take Canal street to get to the Village where most of the restaurants are located. We will definitely be back again and will stay at Tim's beautiful house :)

Perfect getaway to Siesta Key

This property was perfect for our family. The house was clean and the pool/hot tub was refreshing after a day at the beach. Tim was an excellent host, we couldn’t have asked for a better trip! Can’t wait to come again next year.

Pros: Nice central location and walkable to the beach. Kitchen was very well stocked. Outside area was very nice. Lots of beach chairs, umbrellas and towels were provided.Cons: When we arrived after eight hours of driving and a stop for groceries we were ready to unpack and relax. The owners truck was parked in the circular driveway (he did move it after we asked) and the refrigerator was partially filled with left over food and drinks from the previous renters.I was told to "use what we need and throw away the rest" Umm... no thank you.There was also a spill on the kitchen counter that hadn't been cleaned. I called the owner and he was not the least bit concerned. I was told "it shouldn't take too long" to clean out the fridge. Totally missing the point that it wasn't our responsibility to do that.The chairs around the dining room table were very sandy. Overall the house is old and needs a facelift. The window cranks don't work well and the window in the bunk bed room can not be opened at all. If you have teens and preteens there are many games for them to enjoy. So much so there was an air hockey table in the dining room. The pictures on the VRBO webiste are very misleading.We would not stay again.

Response from VrboOwner on 25 Apr 2026
Review is obviously written by the wife and not the person who rented the property. He's a smart man. Happy wife, happy Life. After an 8 hour drive I understand a traveler might be on edge but no excuse to be rude. She forgets to mention that they did not read the check-in sheet, as required. or she would have known the house is professionally cleaned, (AND the cleaning was reviewed by a third party prior to check in.) Immediately upon check the wife called to complain about "a spill" and I asked her to send me a photo. She did not. She fails to mention, there is a new, additional, outdoor refrigerator/freezer. We customarily leave the MINIMAL amount of UNOPENED food and drinks for future guests. This is the first complaint regarding such leaving unopened food and drink. It would take 2 minutes to throw it out, or they could have called the housekeeping, etc. to remove the unopened food and drink, or clean "sandy chairs". She hung up on me in less than a minute. My team members and their contact info are listed on the check in sheet. Yes there is now a new, foosball table, air hockey table, grill, curtains, lamps, added a smart tv in the queen size bedroom, and much more. It should be noted that when they rented the house it was the lowest priced house with a pool, hot tub, on the water, on Siesta Key. Pay $500-$1000/night more and they would have rented a newer house. Don't sweat the small stuff, and enjoy the #1 beach in the USA. As my sign says Sandy Feet are welcome.
