Perfect getaway to Siesta Key

25 Springbreak with Family... Incl teenagers

The property was spot on as described and Tim was a great host and very accommodating. The location is perfect imo as it is a under 7min walk to the beach and 15min walk to the main city center. The house also has a beach cart and chairs which were awesome. We rented a golf cart from Robin hood rentals which was perfect to tool around in. We dropped it off on last night and walked home after dinner.The pool and hot tub were a hit the pool deck had sun pretty much all day which was a also a hit..we ate many meals on the outside table by the pool. The kitchen while small, had many pans and utensils etc when we cooked at the house. There is a third toilet and sink in the washer dryer room and that was very handy with 6 people. Two of our boys slept in the queen bed room but there also was a cot in that room they could have used if they wanted to.One note it is located closer to the North end and not near Captain Curts /South end of the island, but the teenagers used the froggy bus and Uber to get around on their own easily when we weren't using the golf cart.Overall would definitely recommend this property and Tim as a great Host!! . Siesta Beach is amazing and perfect for a chill, fun family or couple(s) get away! This property had everthing we needed. Thx Tim!

The house was stocked with anything we could have possibly needed and the owner responds quickly and goes above and beyond for anything you need.

Great time overall. Cleanliness was a little off. We ended up mopping the floors again upon arrival as our feet were getting dirty. Pool is awesome, screened in patio is great.

Great Place, Great Host/Owner

This is a very nice property, with pool, hot tub, screened in with heat area for ping pong and just chilling. Host was on top of everything and gave us some very nice souvenirs for my parents 60 th anniversary. If you want a great location, 7 minutes walk from beach, 10 minutes from restaurants, and shops this is the place for you! Would definitely rent here again when in the area!
